Unfortunately, this is becoming the new face of the modern cop: rude, brutal, mean and not at all concerned with the rights of citizens.
For the record that cop should be suspended and fired immediately. Probably charged with felony assault.
First, this cop assaulted the Driver. Do you think you can hit a cop just like the way he hit the Driver and not be charged with felony assault?
Second, he violated the Driver’s fourth Amendment right of unlawful searches and seizures. By force ably taking the keys WITHOUT consent to a search.
Third, the cops verbal abuse to people on the street. I don’t care if he is having a bad day. Guess what everybody has bad days. It does not entitle the cop to Bully citizens.
That’s what a police state looks like IMO.
Yeah, a he’s a former Marine as well. Figures.
