minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•2 months agoHe was acting like a completely entitled ass hat… Yelling about not knocking on the window over and over is like page 1 of the douchebag manual; Trying to start a fight over the most trivial thing. Then when he’s told to get out of the car, he ignores them and starts calling someone. What should the cops have done at that point?

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•2 months agoWhat should the cops have done!?!? Was he a threat to anyone? He was probably calling his fucking lawyer. This is what cops have done, convinced regular citizens that ‘contempt of cop’ is a crime that should be punished with violence. The cops should have not escalated the non violent confrontation into a violent confrontation, is what they SHOULD have done.
