Virginia police pulled guns on a Black Army officer during a traffic stop and threatened to execute him in a parking lot, according to the serviceman's lawsuit and video of the encounter.
Ok. Final response. This back and forth damn foolery ain’t worth the time it would take to pepper spray your dumb ass!!!
The military is critical race woke now. Basic human logic has no place in life any more.
Hey, if anybody wants to pick up a quick PHD over at YouTube U, so they can offer unofficial, on-the-job training to law enforcement officers, I guess that's up to them. Personally, I would recommend that they install a flashing neon "LEO TRAINING EXERCISE IN PROGRESS" sign in the back window of their vehicle - just to let the officer(s) know what's happening. And (obviously), stay at the Holiday Inn Express, the night before getting pulled over...

Now that you have run through it in your mind, be ready to get on the ground.

Ha! And your post there got me to thinking. High schools teach esoteric subjects like calculus and comparative literature. But practical life skills are rarely taught anymore. Perhaps we need to bring back those classes. And maybe ‘how to respond when under stress’ should be one of the topics. Practice makes perfect.
Absolutely.
Your full of crap.
I understand. I’d probably be yelling back, seatbelt! seatbelt! tho, instead of, I don’t have to get out of my car.
I agree with the two cops/two instructions stuff being bunk. One cop needs to shut it. His job is to cover the first one. He’s the eyes. First cop should be the only one giving orders. Two people barking is not teamwork it’s fear-barking. And fear=barking increases adrenaline - ask any junkyard mutt.
Says the guy who can’t spell.
Ok, boomer. Like I said, no one has used the electric chair for 50 years. The phrase, TODAY, means getting tased. I’m not the only one who is aware of that fact on this thread. But continue to persist in your ignorance, you stupid old troll.
That seems like a colossal waste of time, but enjoy yourself.
No, dumbass.
I naturally assumed that was the level of discourse you wanted.
Your reply to me seems to confirm that's how you want to address people, but bristle if one dares to address you the same way.
Prove me wrong, reply civilly if you are capable of doing that...
One or the other. Reach for the door handle and get shot.
Either officer could have opened the door.
The situation was escalated way beyond the necessity.
Police use routine traffic stops as fishing expeditions to see what else might be going on.
I got pulled over on my way home from the gym at 5 AM on New Years day for taking a corner too wide in my 1 ton 3500 pickup. Police were sure I was drunk but one small problem, I do not drink.
They used the fact that my big truck does not corner like and sports car to pull me over.
Then asked if they could search my vehicle. I said sure, get a warrant and I'll make a quick call to my lawyer.
The declined.
I must say, I do not think the Soldier acted in the most professional manner either.
Police are taught to never get within arm’s length of the individual unless they are able to see that he or she is unarmed.
The Sergeant Major of the Army put out a statement saying he is proud of the LT and “SMA Michael Grinston said he was “concerned” by the video of the incident, which has garnered national attention. He commended Army Lt. Caron Nazario for his “calm, professional response to the situation” and said Nazario represented the Army well.” If that is representing the Army well, it’s not the US Army I proudly served in nor a Non Commissioned Officer corps I would be proud of.
