Its not a public pool. Its owned by a neighborhood association. Its funded by the neighbors. That means its private property and restricted use to the members of that neighborhood association. That’s the problem.... this is simply trespassing. Everyone here would be fine with the cop acting like that if that herd was in their yard, or their pool, or on their property. Leave means leave when you’re trespassing. Not leaving is suppose to mean you get arrested.
“Everyone here would be fine with the cop acting like that if that herd was in their yard, or their pool, or on their property.”
So the next time an undesirable person comes on my property, I should just bring out my handgun and threaten them with it. I don’t know what they call it where you live, but here where I am, it’s called “brandishing” and it’s a felony! Cops are entrusted with the ability to have and to use deadly weapons when they are absolutely necessary. I would find it hard to believe that as chaotic as this situation was, that pulling a weapon was an act necessary to taking control of the situation. The fact that that’s what this jerk did, says to me that he needs to find another line of work. No one was threatening him, they were just a pack of insolent Blacks which is nothing new in our society today. The McKinney PD better relieve themselves of this guy or he will kill someone in the future.
