4th of July DUI Checkpoint & Guy getting shot for holding a water nozzle

[delatlanta1281]

I'm sorry but in all situations that I desperately needed police assistance, they have never came through for me. I live in a highly policed state, so cops are damn near everywhere. The one time I needed help on the highway because some asshole was trying to run me off the road in his big pickup, not one single cop showed up. I followed the guy all the way to the next state over and not one single officer was alerted to catch the guy.

Sorry to hear that. What most officers and DPS would say in that situation is to pull off the highway and avoid any more confrontation. Maybe head to a police station if the driver is following you.
I have lived in 5 different states. All of which were major cities. I have run into good, respectful, and helpful police in all of them. I have seen bad examples of law enforcement as well, but for the most part, the experiences have been positive. i have been lit up countless times for speed and never had a bad run in. I am respectful, and comply to all requests mostly because I was caught breaking the law. Also b/c I believe that most people (including police) are good to their core. I have been ticketed, joked with, lectured, not spoken to at all (then ticketed), and asked to slow it down in most cases.
I have been mugged, pistol whipped, attacked for no reason, present during a home invasion, held at gunpoint, beaten, and robbed of my belongings by the "general public".
Who do you think I would rather deal with in a dicey situation?
Just my take.

And who the fuck are you to say none of us have been in these situations before? Are you a god? Do you watch my every move? No. Like everyone has said before, just stop talking.

Its easy to tell none of you have by the way you are acting about this. Don't have to be a god to see that lol

That's never going to happen.
While I agree that most cops are to their core good people, there are those that abuse their power.
On the flip side.... while most people would have rolled through that stop and continued on their way, there are those that want to cause problems and see what they can get away with and possibly provoke someone who may or may not be on the edge due to a bad day or who knows.
I am getting sick of the public "baiting" police into a situation that can be construed as abuse of power. I have no sympathy for this individual. If his rights were infringed upon, then he needs to take it up with a lwyer and sue. Not air it all over the web so he can gain a fan base. This dummy isnt trying to WARN anyone. He caused a scene at a dui stop and the police asked him to pull over for holding up traffic on a busy holiday. If there is no law regarding DUI checkpoints in that state, he should have complied and would have been on his way. Oh wait.... that wasnt in his agenda that night. What a douche.
As far as police go. Have your front door kicked in in my neighborhood while you arent home. Then ask yourself if the police are necessary, or if they are just sitting around abusing their power. My neighborhood is over run with crime right now. The police are doing everything they can to curtail and arrest, but unfortunately, people (IE citizens) are still foolish enough to think walking home from bars alone at 2am is safe. They wonder why they get robbed.
For every asshole cop, there are 1000 morons who A. hate the police in it's entirety, B. are just dumb enough to put other people in harms way due to their own stupidity by arming themselves in public.
Police are bad?..... they are until you need them that is. And trust me, you do need them.

I'm not acting better than anyone . None of you have been in these situations, you know nothing about these situations past what you see on youtube. These cops are Working up to 12 hours on a holiday away from family to protect drivers and citizens and dumb kids like this try to push their limits and it pisses them off. Put yourself in that cops shoes for once instead of going along with some kids useless point.

You're a brainwashed ameri-tard, and a hypocrite.


IM IN THE ARMY BRO MY OPINION IS LIKE 40x MORE VALID THAN URS


gimee a fuckin break.

Never said that. You still fail to see it through any view point but yours. You are the one that is brain washed, you just agree with the masses and go with what others say. I agree with you some cops are bad some do infringe but in this case no and in most cases they dont. That kid is an idiot. And so are you, you are stuck in this mind set that I'm stupid because I don't think the law is out to take away our rights and I believe most cops are trying to help. Please just shut up you sound like a typical punk ass cop hating wanna be and you are an embarassment to the American people, the officers in this video are only trying to help keep the roads safe and you act like that's a bad thing? C'mon man you can't be that blind. Open your eyes and put yourself in a cops shoes

It's sad how many of you don't get it.

It has nothing to do with getting anything. I grew up just outside of Chicago, and was VERY often beaten by the police (look it up in the news about police violence in the 90's there). I agree 100% that the police abuse their authority way too often, but that kid is just out there testing and pushing buttons. I wish nothing but bad for the idiot out there like that kid.

he is working with the public if it was any other job where you got that mad that quickly he would get fired on the spot.
like i said i know many cops that if you treat someone nicely even if it does not go their way exactly but they stay within the rights of the person!
that kid was not being a smart ass he just refused within his rights to not fully put down his window that guy had no reason to get that pissed off about it.
ive been pulled over with a broken window switch and it was about half way down the cop didnt bat an eye about it he did his job told me to fix my tail light bulb and i was on my way.

all comes down to police who go on a power trip, and take it out on the first person who does not follow them 100%

[TimKninja]

The kid Was obviously going through that checkpoint looking for trouble.

Unless he had window regulator problems then why not role your window all the way down, thats all their asking for. Then this nerd starts listing off laws when all the cops are trying to do is Find people that are drinking and driving. He deserved what he got.

I can understand the cop hate going around for the trigger happy/meat headed morons. But these people are here to protect you. Stop being douchebags to them. Fucking idiot.

Pot calling the kettle black?




Ahh so you're one of those guys. Get off your high horse. Your service to this country is hugely appreciated but don't act like you're better than anyone because of it.

[kickinindian]

Most cops are pretty cool and I am friends with a couple Leo's for the forest service and around where I live local police are actually really nice it's more of the chp or city police that seem to be like this
if the cop did not get automatically defensive the first time he asked the kid anything it would have looked better on him but it's like the kid said no, oh shit I bet he has 5 pounds of coke under the seat better pull him to the side!
