Please describe in what way the man eating a sandwich was not acting like a civilized human being. And what evidence do you have that what was on the video is not the whole story? One of the cops was caught in a blatant lie on camera and BART has already apologized for the incident so what other info do you have.?
Sure, Ill explain why he was not acting civilized. Before the video begins, the police officer Undoubtedly doing his job, approached this man eating a sandwich in an area where he was not supposed to be eating food. Had the man been polite and cooperative with the police officer, like civilized people act, the officer most likely wouldve said put your sandwich away and have a nice day. Instead, the man decided to act like a total you know what and escalated a routine law enforcement action into an arrest, by refusing to give his name so the officer could give him a citation. Bottom line: if you act civilized, you wont get arrested. Im disappointed with people on this board who are so anti-police.
