      Negative.. also He is now unarmed.. no NEED to point at the head.. chances are you will miss, anyway, Heads are TINY.. aim for chest.. bad copping.. all around. How do you think he acts when he pulls over an innocent? Or a difficult person with PTSD, mental illness, ETC...

      @@rmonnell23 .. “ also he is now unarmed .. bad copping all around.” You think that a criminal who has pointed a gun at an officer and then has thrown a gun down does not pose a threat to a cop who is cuffing him. . ? The guy could have had a second weapon, and even completely unarmed he could have disarmed the cop who was cuffing him - that cop would not have been able to cuff the perp without first holstering his own weapon, and the cop is dangerously close to the perp’s arms and legs during the cuffing process. It happens a lot that the cuffing process is the most dangerous for the vulnerable cop - because of his/her proximity to the perp and the fact this his/her own weapon has been holstered . The cop using the F word in this interaction absolutely correctly assessed the level of badass required to dominate the perp until the other LEOs had safely cuffed the perp. Then they could pat down the perp for other weapons and (attempt to) take him into custody. Please remember a notorious incident last year where a huge unarmed man (6’4” and weighing 240 pounds) was cuffed behind his back, but he was still aggressively kicking the police (a kick from those legs would be potentially lethal, like a kick from an ostrich) , and it took 3 officers to get that guy into the police car. Yeah, this was NOT “bad copping all around” - it was excellent “copping” - nobody lost a life in this incident, and especially life was not lost by a civilian or a LEO. Job well done by this officer.

The cop was not talking to a meek old lady when he used the F word! Job well done.

    Back when I was young and stupid and selling drugs for a living, most of my dealings with police were uneventful. I never ran or mouthed off, always did what I was told, and in return most of them treated me with respect. The only exception was in 1991, when I was being sought for an warrant for some pretty hefty charges (conspiracy, distribution, intent, etc.).
    This one cop saw my car, pulled me over and before I even had a chance to say anything as he came up to my window, he literally pulls me out of the car, slams me on the ground, draws his weapon and tells me if I move he'd "fucking blow my sorry ass to kingdom come," LOL!
    I was like, "Dude, what the hell man? I'm 100 percent compliant -- wh are you DOING?!" There was this long pause and then finally -- and I swear to god this is word for word -- he screams, "I don't know! ... This is my first --- ... Shut the fuck up!" LOL! So I'm like, "Um ... OK."
    Turns out the guy was not only a rookie but was in his first week on patrol, and making his first arrest. He said he thought he saw a gun on the passenger seat (I don't know if he really thought he saw that or just needed an excuse.)
    He cuffed me, helped me up and apologized -- which I've never heard of a cop doing before or since. I told him it was fine. The guy turned out to be really cool. We stopped at Burger King and he bought me a Whopper and fries after I told him I hadn't eaten all day.
    I've always had a lot of respect for cops -- they have an incredibly stressful, thankless job, and dealing with the scum of the earth -- many of whom want to do them harm. The bad apples who are racist or unnecessarily violent have no business being police officers and must be held accountable a lot more than they have in the past. But despite what BLM and similar groups would have you believe, they are the exception to the rule.

    I would argue the police officer was using language the thug would understood. Instead of saying sir and stop in the name of the law. He was conveying, in a very direct language, the consequences of what would happen to the suspect in the event he failed to comply with verbal commands. I think a jury would understand if played in context. Being verbally pc can get you killed.

      I personally don't ever use that kind of language no matter how upset I get. That has a lot to do with my upbringing. I understand in such a situation one will use the strongest language in their vocabulary so no issue with that, but one can be just as assertive without adding words in there that don't add to the meaning. Yelling put the gun down or I'll shoot your head off would work just as well as yelling put the gun down or I'll shoot your #@*# head off, plus it takes fewer words. Again, I guess it has a lot to do with upbringing, so I don't really blame the officer here as much as those who drilled that language into his head. I remember a day when I would not have been the exception for saying this and the world was also a better place then. Just saying.

      I am lucky enough to have a personal range. Quite large in fact. Ive even been able to shoot from moving vehicles, parked vehicles etc. We don't do that much, but have brought our cars out and practiced shooting from inside them. If you don't have this luxury... find somebody with some land and guns and befriend that person. Bring them some ammo and I bet they'd let ya shoot. After a while, you could almost surely atleast park your car on there range and shoot from inside, Its great practice and a lot different than you'd think when actually doing it. Other than that, you'd probably have to find a highly specialized training facility or range etc and pay for the privilege. It really is a weird thing to do though, any CCW and especially LEO should practice shooting from inside a vehicle I believe. Almost everything changes in that situation and its easy to get proficient from your vehicle if you just have a little chance to practice for real. I'm gonna have to drive my truck out to the range again soon and practice this type stuff again myself after seeing this lol.

      @Joseph Wagner well you just compared your job to a police officer. “I don’t go around cussing people out and saying horrible things” well I 100% guarantee your job doesn’t include nearly dying and being shot at on occasions. And the stress you face at work is more like making sure each toilet paper roll has 355 squares on the lineup so I would be shocked if you are as stressed as a police officer facing criminals who don’t want to be caught and probably recommend you take some meds or see a counselor 😂

    Ah, I get it. Mike wants the cop to whisper sweet nothings in the perps ear, while running him a warm lavender bath. Give me a break!

      @@troyswink5435 Just last week I was the "victim" of a felonious assault at the hands of my apartment complex's manager. The assault was caught on video and witnessed by half a dozen persons. Instead of arresting him, the police merely cited him (didn't know that was allowed for felonious assault?!) and gave him a court date/citation.
      This same police department took me *straight* to jail last year, for what was an explicitly verbal argument in my home! No accusation of violence was made, no threats made, no actual crime ever happened! (Charge ended up being dismissed!) But heyyy, ya get charged with felonious assault and you're free to go even if you work where the victim lives?!? It's all BS!

      @@idancemyassintothepaint7571 it sounds like your either lieing about how much evidence you had of the assault or the cops were unclear who started it. Anyways assault without a deadly weapon is way less important than locking up someone who is a felon assaulting people with a deadly weapon. If the guy that assaulted you was a felon with a weapon he would be gone immediately and for a good amount of time. Idk how you fighting a guy at your apartment and then wanting him to get arrested relates to my comment at all but whatever

    The only language I heard was English. And it was very very clear what the officer needed the guy to do. And it was very very clear that there was going to be serious consequences if he didn't comply.
    Job well done saving many people's ASP.

    The job got done, and the officer that was swearing: wasn't lying when he said he was going to do what he said he was going to.
    The swearing is aggressive but I've done the same thing whilst subduing other POS's in similar situations. All in all, I think he did a good job, and the only ones that think otherwise are the little social justice warriors that get handfed everything whilst sugarcoated.
