It is probably why his fellow officers basically removed him from the fracas with the girl, where he felt compelled to pull the gun-- because they also realized that this cop's behavior is part of WHY teens have no respect for cops. That cop is deserving ONLY of contempt, and if YOU think it's smart to put him in a position of authority, then you are out of touch.
I respected the cops in my towns that were GOOD cops, and I know well that they helped steer misguided kids in the right direction. We respected them because they earned that respect. We also had contempt for the small number of officers in our small towns who were like that clown in the video. They EARNED our contempt.
You expect kids to respect the badge. The kids are smarter than you, dear. NO ONE is entitled to respect just because he has a badge, and especially when he behaves in a way that is WORSE than most of the teenagers on the scene.
WATCH THE VIDEO. Until you do, you are talking out your butt.

You made that up. Both the cops came and followed the instructions of the guy with the gun. He continued as the lead and instructed one of the others to chase down the most aggressive dude, which he did.
As one can see in the video, the cop continued to restrain the girl and is alone in the video.
I am not defending the cop just showing that you have not seen reality.

Watch the VIDEO!
Both the other cops left him alone with the girl while they pursued the aggressive male that ran when the gun was drawn.
OK you win the cop should have just took the whoopin. :-)
