“Why would you resist the police?”
If Americans never resisted the police, we would have never become Americans.
M..mmm ... oK. Good luck with that.
My mom was an attorney. She taught my brother and I to obey the police. After all, they’re armed, you’re not. And if they do something wrong, “we’ll sue them later”.
If Americans always resisted the police, we wouldn't have a functioning society, because there would be no law. There's a time to resist authority but this wasn't one of those times.
Or do you see some higher principle motivating his resistance?
