IMO the police were way over the top. Apparently golf carts are used for transportation wherever it is. While checking the first cart several fly by.
Stop the cart, tell them too many people on the cart.
But no, started an ugly incident.

Tourist places Pigeon Forge TN rent golf carts and side-by-sides for tourists. Cops were just doing their job, they ran a stop sign, got pulled over just like you would in a car.

The real brouhaha started when the guy passed his drugs off to the woman and she stuffed them down her pants, then the whole group went feral when they went to arrest those two.

Cops were just doing what they had to do, but I am surprised they didn’t have tasers TBH, notice how the group got even more violent at gunpoint though, that was just plain stupid on their part as well. Cop has you at gunpoint, you don’t try to circle him and take a combative pose, this wasn’t the cops fault for escalation, it was the groups 100% that they all rightfully went to jail.

ahhhh...it wasn’t the cops that started a ugly incident.
If they had just behaved like the white bunch they would have been quickly on their way...BUT NOOOOO.
Typical..
Instantly when pulled over two or three were up and about agitated, then the guy obviously passed drugs to his gf.
What do you expect the cops to do ignore their oath?
This MOB then surrounded the cops even at GUNPOINT.
Did you notice how the first people pulled over reacted compared to the second?
So who “started” this ugly incident the cops doing their job or the people on the golf cart?

look I hate drugs and I think people that use drugs are stupid even those that use pot....

having said all that, for this golf cart cop to explode this situation was an amazing lack of judgement and temperament....

could have given them a warning in a professional way...

I just don't get it...

remember the video of the insane cap dressed in heavy gear shouting at the poor guy in the hotel barking many contrary orders and then shooting the guy dead?...well this cop reminds me of him..
