Actually it wasn’t properly displayed. It was up front and not where it was supposed to be. And again, this has nothing to do with licking boots. This entire incident falls solely on the shoulders of Lt Moron.
Doesn’t matter that you hate cops.
As you stated, once they verified that he had a legit tag he would have been in his way.
You’ve obviously never done the job and are unaware of what folks will do to try and conceal criminal or negligent behavior. But of course, that doesn’t concern you until the consequences effect you or a family member. That’s cool.
I don't. I just think the cop in this instance escalated something when he didn't need to.
