2. I guess you are really a strict follower of the law. If they changed the law so that gun ownership is outlawed, then I am sure you will be the first to take away our guns. After all, it is the law.
3. People drive. Houston is full of black people. This police officer is marked. I will bet you anything he will be off the force in 6 months as the furor over this traffic stop increases.
4.Cops are getting a bad press because they are disrespectful to everyone.
If a cop pulls me over, and asks me where I am going , which is none of their business, I will refuse to answer. All the while videoing the interaction. If I get pulled out and harrassed, lawsuit time. That is a violation of my constitutional rights, and not only will I sue the police, I will personally sue the cop.
And yes, I dont live in Texas. But that video is blatant cop arrogance & overreach. I also think you must have some bad weed over there if cigs and clover can cover up the smell.
1. State Patrol monies are completely separate from city/county coffers. Most revenue for DPS tickets actually go to the local counties so they’re already funneled into local priorities. Law Enforcement is just not a priority for many large cities, especially sanctuary cities. That isn’t the cop’s fault cause he has no control over that. Those are your elected officials’ faults. Hold them accountable.
Also, since you seem to be uninformed about a lot of things. Speeding and other traffic violations (including illegal lane changes) cause more deaths on the highway than DWI/DUI and all other causes combined each year.
2. No, because I am also an Oath Keeper and the anti-gun laws go against the Constitution. The traffic laws do not go against the Constitutions. The laws requiring her to follow lawful, reasonable orders does not go against the Constitution. You’re comparing oranges to apples.
3. I’ll bet he isn’t off of the force and even if he leaves DPS, he’ll land another job at another department. I promise you that. Yes, Houston has a lot of black people and so does south Dallas, but whites and conservatives still greatly outnumber them, which is why they don’t riot in TX.
4. You are wrong on so many levels with this one. First of all, you can refuse to answer, but then the cop has the right to check your history, background, etc. Second, a cop can pull you out of the car for ANY reason. SCOTUS has already upheld that so you have no recourse for suing. If you get combative, then you’ll just go to jail. Staying in your car and/or being combative are NOT your civil rights. So again, no recourse for suing. Finally, you can’t sue the cop in TX personally if he has not violated the law. He is immune due to a broad good faith clause in the law. That is the same in most States.
Again, you are showing your ignorance of the law and law enforcement.
