And before anyone out there accuses me of defending the cops, save it. I'm not defending their actions, I am merely stating the obvious for those that need the obvious stated for them. Everyone's heard of the Scorpion and the Frog story. In this case the cops are the scorpion. They're not about to change, thus the only thing the average citizen has within his or her control in an encounter with law enforcement is their own actions. Do I comply or do I run my mouth at them? Do I let them have a quick look around or do I tell them to get stuffed? Do I obey the command they are giving me or do I stand there dumbly until they tell me a second and third time, pissing them off by the second? Do I cooperate or do I run my cock hole about my "rights"? What happens next is almost always going to be the result stemming from one's own actions. Compliance. The gambler in me say's it's the best bet. Call it CD's "Comply now and let your lawyer ask the questions later" method if you must. |
i agree. i learned a long time ago to comply. that said, my comment about various states of mind only bolsters that.
in fact, when i wrote it i was recalling a long-distance motorcycle trip i took many years ago. i had <50 miles to go, it was late at night and bad weather and i was very tired and really wanting to finally get home. i was pulled over for weaving around at 3am, understandable. but i was exhausted from hammering out some miles and didn't handle myself properly that time. i didn't end up in jail but i got dealt with by that officer. that's how it goes, state of mind regardless. |

being a dick, or as also stated in this thread 'being stupid', are just not good enough reasons for the police to also act like bullying asshole dicks. Reasonable force etc sure - but this behaviour wasn't reasonable, and I feel sorry for anyone spoonfed a load of shit throughout their life that they think it is, in any way, shape, or form. Also seems some need to learn the difference between 'explaining they had a warrant' and shouting down & talking shit to a lone female who let's not forget was a 100% innocent party in all of this. |

And I never used the word deadline, only you did. And you seem to miss the point that this was not just one city, with one city's cops. |

now that all that is cleared up. again, my view is there was smarter ways to handle this. it doesn't matter if it was 100 warrants in 10 hours with 1 police agency or 10 warrants in 100 hours with 11 agencies. that it. if i were running the show there, i would be looking for ways to do better. there are many ways this could have been done better, as i've pointed out, better preparation is front & center of that. |
state of mind:
noun attitude, perspective, outlook, approach, mood, disposition, frame of mind, mindset, way of looking at things hope this helps rochard. |

the guy was very angry, consequently he handled it wrong. he was lucky because that cop handled it right and proper consequences were doled out. i was about to post some more on the actual perp in turtle town. :::: Quote:

this aside, maybe it's an extremely rough neighbourhood blah blah but if that's the case, they MUST know it's a rental property, and some teenage black chick isn't the person they're looking for bizarre clip, and glad she posted it. Being cuffed so they can find my id is beyond fubar |

They are SERVANTS who are supposed to PROTECT THE PEOPLE. They are not supposed to intimidate or abuse them. Somewhere long the way shit got twisted and now everyone thinks raiding your house, acting like an asshole, shooting people for moving too fast, or wearing military raid gear while driving a war wagon and carrying assault weapons is perfectly normal. It's not. They do not need to show overwhelming force and be assholes in order to protect the people. Think about what "protection" really means and then look at the current state of US police. It is appalling. The policeman in the video could have just as easily killed that guy for whatever reason he made up, but he didn't. He kept his cool and acted like a real pro. That kind of officer is the kind of officer that the world needs of. Not assholes who barge in your home, abuse you, or bark profanities at you. A person should never have to fear a run in with the police, or turn on all the lights in their home so they don't get shot. |
