It's just as important as you arriving home safely at the end of the day, don't ya think! I seem to remember thousands of LEOs who called it End of Watch while working and never made it home. At least 17 officers died, so far this year which is just over 1 month old (not inc;uding the FBI agents just killed yesterday) due to line of duty injuries. As for the ones listed here: Law Enforcement Line of Duty Deaths in 2021 (odmp.org), the other 14 or so who died from COVID-19, who knows where they contracted it. Maybe you should ask their loved ones if the important thing was them making it home or it it was those LEOs doing their jobs and thus allowing others to make it home, throughout their careers that were cut short by their deaths!The important thing is that all heroes made it back home safe at the end of the shift.....
My post was directed at this particular incident. You're talking about generalities here. Not applicable.I am not justifying anything in that video, not even responding relative to it. My only reply herein is to this post:

Need to get that spell check be going.Theoretically a bumble be cannot fly. But they do.
Legally a Cop can not... But they do.
A smile and a 'yes officer' will do more to defuse the interaction than anything.
I think he is saying, you don't have to be a dick to an officer just because you are "right". "Because you can" is the worst reason to do anything and is based in ego and will get you in trouble cop or civilian eventually.Need to get that spell check be going.
Do you seriously believe that submitting to a tyrannical cop is the way to go? How about the one in a North Texas community that would demand oral sex before letting you go? I believe he is now in prison.
YouTube has brought us so many of these videos that it almost seems that unless you are a sergeant you don't seem to know the basics, members here with one exception, excluded.
Actually I was talking about specifics, the specific officers who never made it home due to in the line of duty death - that is no generalization. Anyway, I can see, if you meant that your post just applied to this video, mine was a pointless point in that regard.My post was directed at this particular incident. You're talking about generalities here. Not applicable.
Specifically talking about tyrannical cops. We have already seen the unmentionable retired SA cop that claimed every open carry would be stopped and ID every time in San Antonio. Sure you can submit and maybe in jail you can bend over and submit (or else) but outside of jail I don't think I would submit to systemic abuse. To be honest, I have not shown ID in over 30 years and that was a non ticketed traffic stop. I have great respect for LEO but these videos bring that down. I never considered myself a racist either until I see our government applying freebies to people because they are not my color or race. I am seriously having second thoughts about what I should declare myself. Is it better to be white, black, green, red, yellow? I may want to change as per the situation.I think he is saying, you don't have to be a dick to an officer just because you are "right". "Because you can" is the worst reason to do anything and is based in ego and will get you in trouble cop or civilian eventually.
I see cops interact with people ALL DAY. Take my word for what you will. These videos are far and away the exception, just like airplanes crashing or anything else [covid] It is bad, which grabs our attention. But the reality is given the number of interactions these kind of failures are not all that common. No excuses or condemnations made for either party.

Sasquatch,
Thanks for your excellent explanatory post.
Cycleguy,
I believe you - Such incompetence displayed by the SAPD is the exception, not the rule.
SAY WHAT ? HAHAHAHAHANow you did it.
Often in cases such as this the clause" nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; " is argued that the false arrest deprived the person of their liberty without due process of law.

I agree with you about being civil to a normal LEO.My point is that you should be nice and civil. You never know what that Cop had happen before he stops you. Good morning Officer, or Yes Sir? is how a Civilized person should react.
No Officer I do not want to let you search my car. Do not raise you'r voice, and smile a lot. But never submit to bullshit. Do you have warrant or am I under arrest? No then is there anythig else I can help you with? Then it was nice to meet you, have a nice day. NEVER curse at any Officer, that just makes you another 'piece of shit', and that dehumanizes you.
Is a Dell missing some of the regular 26 letters of the alphabet or something ?I agree with you about being civil to a normal LEO.
I wrote tyrannical cop= exercising power in a cruel or arbitrary way.
I too type on a Dell.
That s a v ry good q estion?Is a Dell missing some of the regular 26 letters of the alphabet or something ?
