Bet it was a black cop, but no matter. Blacks in the south are more respectful of authority than those in the North, because in the South there are lots of elected black officials.
DeKalb county has a very diverse police force because the citizenry IS very diverse ethnically and linguistically. Good chance the cop was black.

Up north, the person would more likely have tasered the cop.
