Usually when cops won’t tell you why they’re confronting you, they haven’t figured out the reason yet.
Or the cop is drunk or stupid or both
Exactly, they just haven't made one up yet.
Racist
or they have not escalated the situation enough where "resisting OR obstructing' can even SOUND reasonable yet.
Imagine for a moment a time when cell phone cameras didn't exist and it was the cop's word versus your own?
If I was black, I would be afraid to go out into public. Imagine having that type of anxiety on a daily basis!
Yes but it's not always a black thing. This happens to white people in white communities all the time as well. It actually hurts the cause when the truth is not spoken entirely.
shit would be terrifying
@@douglasdurrett5395 how often compare to our black fellas?
1 out of 50!!
@@douglasdurrett5395 it's is mostly a black thing, white officers don't look at black people with the same compassion as white people, we don't get the benefit of the doubt.
The cop shouldn't be UNDER fire, 😒😒🙄...he should be FIRED.
Right
Can’t even eat in peace.
Edit:
Shout out to the restaurant manager for standing up for him.
Thank God for the Camera on his Cellphone and Manger
Sounds like the 1000's of white people, when BLM attacked
she didn't stand up for him. she just realized she was about to become known world wide for being a racist
Every time a cop lies about an ID being required, they should be reprimanded
Keep in mind that sometimes they are not lying. It's different per state.
@@PsychobabbleRapp Agree, but there is no law that says you can't bring your dog to a restaurant. To know if a command is lawful, you must first know the law. Just because it's coming from a cop does not mean it is lawful.
@@PsychobabbleRapp Hail Communism!
@@YourWifesRealBoyfriend WHAT , any restaurant any place any time can deny you service and ask you to leave , and MOST if NOT all have rules against ANINAMLS , if a restaurant says you cant bring your dog in, you cant bring your dog in PERIOD , they are free to have any rules they want, they are free to deny service to anyone they want for any reason they want, how do people like you function from day to day not knowing common knowledge stuff like water is wet and you cant take your dog in a restaurant if they dont want you to , my god how dam dumb are you
@@minisithunknown5568 hail small minded idiots easily brainwashed by talking heads on the TV, my biracial family says hi fool
him going back to talk to the manager was the best play he could have done. literally catches the officer in a lie
Any follow up guys
@@south97north No. Nobody followed him.
@@dorathedestroyer770...
Any follow-up on the case. What discipline did officer. Did Townsend sue?
@@kimberlybates27 probably got a promotion. This BS is way to common!
This could have been worse. That black man could have been subject to a vicious, savage beating, a tasing and possibly murdered.
The young man seems well spoken, kind, and reasonable. Sorry for the bad cop.
What if he wasn't “well-spoken” do you think his rights should have been violated?
What is that suppose to mean?
They’re all bad…😮
@@blackbettyboo5039Of course not. But that just shows how much pressure there is on black people to act "just right" around pigs to keep from getting maimed or killed.
@@jmcrae825oh wow
The lesson here: Record ALL interactions with police.
The lesson I got is don’t pretend your pit bull is a service animal.
Record all interactions with police........???
Record all interactions with WHITE people that make an accusation you know they can't prove.
@@alexandra.willitts6988 someone brings a pit bull into a restaurant and you see race as the issue? Racist much?
@Edward Dungeesorry but as a Democrat I rely on science which includes evidence. You have no evidence to back any assumptions youve made except for the picture of him and a white girl claiming she’s the manager. Try again…
@@hahynbornbornhahyn9857 who said it was pretend? I know of 3 pitbull service dogs. Plus the cop then accused him of smoking weed but when called out on that lie the cop folded. Stop making excuses for bad cops.
The restaurant could have stood up for this man in the first place.
They are possibly intimidated themselves.
Exactly...
It looks like he went back to commiserate with the owner. Seems like it went like:
Owner: Bro, I had no idea that was gonna go like that! There was some weird dude harassing people OUTSIDE!
Patron: Yeah, I know.
yes .. there is nothing that surprising about coming across a drunk racist cop in america..
what i find shocking is the total lack of concern for their customer by the restaurant..
The restaurant may have been the ones who called. Correction, it was just an abusive police officer trying to show he has power!
Honestly I maybe airing my own personal feelings but man this breaks me up inside. Seriously this hurts😢 to see…
I thought I was the only one, I got teary eyed watching this
I also called on this and the officer I spoke told me to shut the hell up this has nothing to do with me and to never call back or I will go to jail for harassing them. This whole department is corrupt
Every interaction with police must be recorded, by the public.
A MUST!!
@Chris P. Bacon Sure? You like it when facts are hidden I guess...
That's why they are ready to pass a no cam footage allowed legislation for the 'Pro cops'. They won't allow recordings of bad cop deeds & behavior in court anymore. Its a wrap!
Why wasn't the full incident recorded? This is bullshit! One sided story... ya okay!
@@AnneOhn123 what's one sided .....the other side was the manager said the guy was no problem. What else would you like to know.
"Your dog shouldn't be here."
*Dog leaves.*
"Actually I'm here for you, I suspect you might be a criminal."
*Has no criminal record.*
"But actually I was called by the manager to kick you out."
*Manager welcomes back a paying customer.*
Yes and when his attorney pulls the police phone records that lying piece of shit is done
@@israelisrealallpraisestoth8129 it is doubtful anything will happen to him over this

And if they carry the proper paper work for the dog that has No Rights then Police are never called in the first place.
@@rack391 no, idiot. Stop victim blaming. I mean , if he had made a different haircut choice, this all could’ve been avoided too, right?
It’s cops like this that make it terrible for other cops who are truly trying to do their job.

What did I do Sir.
YOU EXIST.
Basically.
You are black and im racist
Bingo!!
Legalize
Being
BLACK
Exactly!!!
I am a retired Cop. It is awful scenarios like this is the reason so many people across the country hate our guts. How sad.
And how many cops outside told the cop, look he doesn't have to ID, sit on the ground, youre being over the top? None.
No this is why us blacks hate y’all
Some of you are worse. I'm white but grew up poor. I remember VIVIDLY cops beating the sh*t out of kids (and me) for nothing but walking home from school....no arrest just beatings.
Same cops sold drugs and banged hoes in their cruisers....we suspected one of them even murdered a kid....but nothing came of that.
I live in a great area now where the cops behave VASTLY different. But I will never trust them.
And I will never socialize with them if I have the option, sorry.
@@ericlondon2663 yea they behave different toward ur ppl not mine
Hi Thomas. The thing that bothers me the most about this. Is the fact me being white. It hurts me to hear that Black people are being racially profiled. And discriminated against. I don’t want the black community to hate me as a white person. Because I was raised to respect people no matter what color they are. And it doesn’t matter to me what nationality they are or where they come from. If they’re nice to me I would gladly be nice to them. I have Friends that are black. And I have nothing against them. I like them just as they are. What people seem to forget is that they are human beings too. I remember a situation at my place of work. A client made a comment about one of my friends and said. I don’t like them because they’re black. I got very upset with them. And my friend asked me what did they say. And I said. Believe me you don’t wanna know. I didn’t have the heart to tell her because it would’ve upset her very much. And I said to my supervisor. I’m sorry that I got upset. They said no you had every right to be. They said come sit down and relax so you don’t get more stressed out. But my supervisor felt that I was in the right to stick up for a friend of mine.
STAND YOU GROUND ! Young Man! Do not let this make you make you feel. Ill will towards people!
This proves that cops can lie for personal convineience without reproach.
ofc they can lie. they can even commit crimes because they're nothing like humans in a suit.
@Slim Pickens nah, if he would have stood up for his rights the dickhead officer would have slapped him in cuffs for being "disorderly" or some stupid shit
@@trashcandan4200 or just shot him, this cop is dangerous.
Ryan Cue I guess you didn't get the memo years ago the supreme court gave the cops the right to lie,sounds crazy right but it's true!!!🤡🐷😜😂🤔
They all do,let me repeat that,they all do.It's part of the training they give in the local Bar.
That whole "because I said so" bullshit needs to be shut down, there's no reason you should have to wait till your court date to be told why you've been arrested
It's not til your court date, most states require that initial charges be filed within 24 hours of an arrest.
@Patric Morgan It's actually 72 hours And that's also how long they have to send you to court…. Make more sense now? But that doesn't matter anyway because they should know what they're charging you with before they arrest you and if that doesn't make sense to you then I feel sorry for you
@Patric Morgan "what am I arrested for?" "we won't know for another 72 hours" lol you really don't see how that's garbage? Like that really doesn't seem sketch as fuck to you?
@Patric Morgan And by the way I've been arrested many many times lol it's 72 hours to charge you and to send you to court, I promise you. People have absolutely sat in jail for multiple days before even being told what they've been arrested for...
@@ssgemactv1775 it gives them enough time to sort out fabricated evidence and redact anything that could contradict the charges they want to apply. Always record your interactions. That's why police hate accountability...makes it harder for the gang. They even have to work harder to generate revenue because it use to be a win win for them. Now with the countless cases being thrown out and lawsuits its starting to make less sense to let them run unhinged. Leo's will never care where thier authority starts and ends. Serious crimes are committed every second these clowns waste time and resources, trained to harass and escalate to produce results.
Racial profiling needs to be made a crime. Stalking is a crime. Profiling like stalking is a crime.
The way he barked at that young man was with contemptuous racism.
The police owe this man a apology, and punitive damages. The cop was a no good lying SOB.
The only money police have to pay for their crimes is in your wallet.
and firing. He needs to be gone from any position of authority.
@@mookiewilson4166 Who cares the tax dollars where not spent on train and over site! So a tax payer will get a refund on his taxes with interest.
Yes, out of your pocket and mine. And police will get the same money or more next year that still won’t be spent on training and oversight. Maybe I’m not understanding your point? This would be like if every time a cop got a speeding ticket, you owe me $500.
The apology he can keep it wouldn't be sencrere.
"I was called here, for You!" - let's see the dispatch records & hear the voice, thats where we hear the real story.
So you think cop decided to drive to random location and go in?
@@wileecoyote5749 Officer? You mean the dude that was acting impaired?
@@wileecoyote5749 The cop is obviously drunk or tipsy
Yep you said that perfectly let's hear the dispatch voice! Oh is that you manager?????
Exactly
What reason do you have in questioning me officer.
Is it ego that prevents cops from answering simple questions?
Victim: “what did I do?”
Officer: “you do”
🤭
🤣
Wasn't funny you pale devil
😂😂seriously 😅
Eating while black ? Service dog while black ?
They wouldn't have to worry about welcoming ME back. Where was all that warmth while it was going down?
Right!
😂
Spot on!
Courage sometimes only comes after the fact when the shame sets in. I had a similar thing happen to me. I'm a street-level community organizer and also set up the local copwatch program, so the cops know who I am. I was conducting a meeting at a local drop-in centre when the cops showed up and began to harass one of the meeting participants. When I confronted the cops, they trespassed me from the property.
Initially the drop-in backed up the cops and told me they had no choice, that they relied on the cops for dealing with dangerous situations and they didn't want to risk defying them. But three days later after a meeting of the board, they changed their mind. They ended up following their conscience and inviting me back, then trespassing _the police_ from their property. They found their spines, but it took them a little bit of soul-searching.
He looks like a freak and probably smelled bad too. What was a guy like that doing in a restaurant by himself? Stoned out of his mind probably. Another dinner might have called.
Instant removal of this old tyrant
SOMETIMES, WHEN THEY DON'T MAKE IT HOME, I GET A WARM FUZZY FEELING.
Imagine dealing with this low level unprofessional incompetence from a police officer...oh boy!
And under-educated, low IQ, obese, and under-trained.
Looks like he's working alone 🤣
Looks like a fat racist “good ole boy “.
A complete piece of shit 😎 big loco East Los Angeles Califas 💯 🇲🇽🇺🇸
I grew up in this town I dealt with him a lot he's no good he's corrupt the whole Police Department's corrupt cuz they're protected by qualified immunity they know they can't be sued for violating somebody's rights and if the police department gets sued taxpayers have to flip the bill not individual cop this is why we need to get rid of qualified immunity and civil asset forfeiture
*"HAS ANYONE REQUESTED A PUBLIC RECORD OF THE 911 CALL YET?? DO IT!"*
And what did the guy do to invoke the ire of the cops or restaurant management? And not carrying proof for the service dog? "Oh, we don't have to"....yes, fuckhead, you do.
@@bluecollarcanuck but he didn't raise the "ire" of the restaurant manager... if you watch the video the manager says he didn't know why the cop was called there.
@@bluecollarcanuck he sent the service dog home out of the restaurant if that was the problem then it was handled. The manager of the store claims none of their staff called the police so he didn't do anything to be harassed by the officers. Why don't you watch the news report before typing stupid comments.
@@imani2114 That's why I asked in the first place, smartarse.
@@bluecollarcanuck we already know what he did, you do. i mean that is a crime in this day and age. that basically translates to, i don't have a fucking clue what you did, but i am about to trash your civil rights.
A man has the rights to be respectful and respected when he has done nothing wrong.
How this gentleman handled this situation shows everything. I am glad this was given the attention it deserved. ❤
honestly, no it wasn't good. He should have never given in and gave up the most coveted object to the racist cop: His ID.
This Officer, William Moore was suspended and later self retired before he could be fired and loss of retirement benefits.
I can’t even imagine how many innocent people have lost their lives in the hands of this wicked officers and they’ll always come up with something to justify their evil deeds.
depending how far you go back in american history that number could be in the tens of millions. The origins of modern-day policing can be traced back to the "Slave Patrol."
Judgement day !!! Nothing evil goes unpunish
Let that racist cop go he showed his true self shame on him
@@malachiashley528 Not to be contradictory, but modern day policing actually can be tracked back to Texas Ranger program initiatives and Special Forces training done overseas. Police used to be called peace officers, and handled mostly mundane tasks, such as patrolling for breakdowns on road systems, public searches for missing individuals, and general safety services. A lot of things changed as a result of violence directly against peace officer units, the police became more militarized and followed tactics and operational procedures developed for combating drug and sex trade in Asia by organized crime outfits. Those tactics were imported, adapted, and now most police behave in a manner consistent with "special operations teams" rather than peace officers. Unfortunately, this has the side effect of causing police to view their work differently, to view every situation from a combative point of view rather than a safety point of view. And unfortunately the work attracts people who desire power over others and have a chip on their shoulder ( a common combination stemming from racism ).
Relating modern behavior to "slave patrol" isn't very accurate, and simplifies the more complex systemic racism we are seeing today.
It's much too complex a topic to really be discussed meaningfully in a format such as this, but suffice to say that it is very, very good that cops must wear cameras and that we as citizens are not prohibited from recording our interactions with them.
The officer in this video has no probable cause, he has not specified any actual reason for his presence or his demands, his demands are well outside what the constitution allows him to request, and his behavior is threatening, escalatory, and insulting to the person he is attempting to detain. If he had received a call for any reason there would be a record of it, and he is required to declare valid cause for running the man's ID, as that is considered being "detained" (the man cannot leave while his ID is being processed). By saying that the owner has requested him to remove someone from the premises falsely, that constitutes a violation of his oath and a violation of the rights of the detainee, and possibly civil court compensation for disrupting the business owner's livelihood on top of that.
This man should have faced a formal inquiry for this behavior, unfortunately most precincts will just "retire" someone like this or allow them to resign rather than barring them from service elsewhere, so even if the cop is "fired" he can just work 1 town over.
Sadly more and more cops are racists, I have Seen so many videos, where cops punish coloured people, very violent police..Makes Me scared, this is bad
“Under FiRE” (🔫🔫🔫)?!?
How inappropriate & deceitful is the name of this video?!?
Strange that a cop can cause all that commotion but no staff came over.
How was he not fired? He was really drunk on the job and carrying a weapon.
How do these cops get suspended with pay what kind of punishment is that. As a kid we learn if we get suspended from school we loose something if we get suspended from work we don't get paid so why do cops still get paid with taxpayers money. These cops have no common and will cost this country billions or trillions of dollars in lawsuits.
The right to keep and bare arms shall not be infringed, are you an American? Have you ever been to America? In America all citizens have a god given right to keep and bare arms, white, black, brown and whatever else there is, has a right to have a gun,and in the document that spells out the rights you are told exactly what to do when it is infringed , by the government which has guns. Please don’t be like your ancestors for the last 5 centuries. You got to fight, and you may die in the fight, but your people will know you fought for their freedom and they will remember you, you down?you wanna be free? You wanna be equal? Me too let’s fight for freedom and justice
@@monetschannel5773 not true. Unarmed black Americans getting gun down by racist cops. Even if a black American is legally armed the racist cops shoot you. Black American legal gun owners don’t tot their guns around like white because black Americans don’t have that privilege to walk around with they gun on their holster unless they around a bunch of white boys and two blacks. You don’t see a group of black Americans in general with guns on their holster. Unless they are cop or nfac but No private or public Black American walk around with guns on the holsters.
@@jamesupshaw5312 at least you understand your place, it does what it is told or it gets the deadly force
@@monetschannel5773 Really? Almost no one can buy an automatic weapon. You used to be able to order a Thompson submachine gun, but they stopped that! All sorts of things would be legal if you were right. Strange how Wild Bill Hickok and Wyatt Earp were known for not allowing people to carry guns in town because that was the new law! I think given where the country was back then, they had far more justification, yet weren't allowed to do so on town.
I agree, the manager or the owner should have worked together
To bring clarity
That this young black man was never told to leave
The restaurant
Cops like this make you wonder how are they running the rest of the station.
Manager had to know all this was going on in his restaurant. If he didn’t know, he wasn’t doing his job and should be fired.
You can see the manager walking around at :50 He knew..
Dog was a non-service dog and She even lies about it being a service like they are all required to carry identification on their harness and has to be clearly visible...Guarantee somebody in establishment called it in to the cops,,,, because I've done it myself..I even walked out of the restaurant because the guy had a dog in there that wasn't registered then I called the cops and the guy was told to leave ,The owner of the restaurant got a fine..For allowing it
@@helpmefixthis9117 stop defending racist cops. Didn't you watch the video? The officer kept escalating and making up charges even after the dog left. So it wasn't about the dog at all.

If he didn't record it himself there would likely have been no record of this interaction
No body cam on the cop. What shameful work. This is nothing compared to other videos I've seen. Cops seriously need to be held accountable. It's up to us to record them but even then they will deny wrong doing
The manager of the restaurant should’ve came out and cleared tht up before they went outside tbh
That's exactly why they don't comply, they are tired of being profiled. It's embarrassing, annoying and it's a bother.
They are profiled because there are A LOT of black people actually committing crimes. Society is TIRED of all the black crime. If you feel that it is embarrassing, annoying and it's a bother. then get your black people to STOP committing crimes at such a ridiculous amount. The profiling happens for a reason, stop blaming the wrong people and get the black community to behave like the rest of normal civilized society.

The key is some customer sitting in there call the police it wasn’t the manager, but I hope this guy has been relieved of his duties. What a racist cop and I don’t trust him or them.
It's actually illegal to ask a person with disabilities for "paperwork" on their service dogs
And this Is why my sister can take her chihuahua into stores even though it isn't a service dog
Well he should have talked to the young lady because it was her dog...
⬆️👏🏽Yep. Because none exists. You have to be disabled and the dog has to be trained to perform tasks to mitigate your disability. Those are the only pieces of information people can ask you for. (I’m a service dog handler.)
@@loliking2763 yeah that’s illegal.
@@Josie-6 It isn't illegal, it's just not legally protected, but businesses won't do anything about it unless you cause problems.
Why didn’t the manager find out what was going on. Makes me not believe the manager in the photo being all friendly with him
I smell a massive lawsuit about to happen.
A alcohol using policeman who accuse some one of using drugs, what a world
The F'd up part is someone at the restaurant obviously called and they're the one's who started this ish smh
The world will be not ruined by evil people, but by those who watch them without doing anything. Albert Einstein
I have to agree with Albert.
I agree but what can we do? Vote? Protest? Go to court and try and argue a case?
Is almost 170 years fighting for validation of rights, the White Supremacists never want to give it to you.
Dumb
@@ramihamzi9391 we can make sure that they lose qualified immunity and make them pay for their own insurance .
This is pretty shady, the cop said the restaurant complained. Then when the guy goes back the manager is shaking hands. I think the restaurant manager is bullshiting.
He didn’t want to be exposed as a Karen.
In case you haven't noticed, the police keep getting caught in lies to 'justify' why they're hassling non-whites in general, and black males in particular. The police officer comes across as a bullying psychopath in the video who refuses to justify his 'attention' on the customer. Why on Earth would any of us, after watching his behavior in the video, believe him?
911 dispatch has a record. The manager called about having them removed bc of the dog being illegal in the restaurant (WAS NOT A SERVICE DOG).
@@jfkst1 And you have access to the 911 activity log? Why should anyone believe you?
@@jfkst1I will say it’s rare to have a pit bull service dog and you should have to carry your service dog papers, BUT there was no dog in restaurant when the police showed up and the cop acted like a prick. No body wants to go outside with a cop especially when you might not make it out alive over a dog. Police need to be reformed and that’s coming from a TRUMP supporter.
The manager was covering his own ass because the optics were much worse than his initial discomfort... Of course someone at the restaurant called. lol
The 1960's called, they want their police walkie-talkie back!
There is no situation in society that can’t be made worse by police presence
Makes you wonder why we even have police.
I once saw somewhere that police were created after slavery was abolished because white folk feared retaliation from them treating blacks so bad for so long. History on repeat, unfortunately.
@@hotelmario510Ask anyone from California. We need qualified officers with mental health support. It's a tough job that can change a person if left without support and guidance
So many cops are ignorant of the law. It's incredible absolutely insane that we don't teach the police their place in public and what the constitutional rights are of citizens. This really needs to become a thing where every single police officer coming up out of training has been fully trained in what the Constitution is what it means and how they engage with the public.
Llllllllllllllob
It is deliberate.
The government will start killing us wholesale soon.
They need this kind of 'cop' to do that.
They know the law, they are just power tripping
I personally think klu klux klan members join police force so they can legally kill black folks. since they "Can't " hang them publicly anymore they join to be protected from shooting them. KKK members hide behind a badge and continue their Hatred. I think the Chief of police promotes shooting black people in my opinion. its not like he sit behind a desk ,legs up sleeping while his soldiers out killing. he knows Exactly what going on.
You think you live in a 1st World country, when you have a fourth world police force. The amount of training and the low bar for admittance is truly pathetic when compared to other countries, but then so is your education system. It too is not of a uniformly decent level.
This is 2 years old. How was this corrupt, racist pig held accountable. It would be nice if you updated us on this case like you said. It leaves us with a feeling of hopelessness and injustice. I want this corrupt, racist pig to rot in jail.
Seems like the managers could have spoken up while the cop was there?
It is clear as day the Chief is on Vacation, physically and mentally.
He looks pretty old honestly...
@@Rando_26 and possibly drunk.
With all due respect he should always have his “medically required service dog” papers with him.
The police, like always, showed up with a “I hate all human beings” attitude.
If the owner of restaurant is not complaining and didn't call police about dog, no one else has the to do that.
Audit one USA lots of businesses let dogs in that are not service dogs.
*The restaurant manager called the cops on him. And then, this pinhead got his picture taken with the smiling manager. Request a record of the 911 call to find out who called the cops. It's public information.*
Exactly. The fruity manager may be doing damage control on a call he made "himself".
No, the identity of the caller is only released during discovery. It is not an open record.
The thing is that some departments will release it inappropriately if they think it is to their advantage.
@@robertsparling Well in this case it WAS the manager who called the pigs so your wrong.
@@ronniemartin5088 The comment was not about whether it was the manager or not. My comment was about what is proper to release in a FOIA request, and for what purpose. So you're wrong.
@@pdrey100 the “fruity” manager? Really my guy?
Terribly interesting that they didn't name the police officer or restaurant manager.
if they start taking the settlements awarded for these rights violations out of the offending officer's paycheck, I guarantee you this kind of nonsense will halt immediately. And really, there is no justification for the city he works for to have to pay for his ego trip.
Him: "What did I do sir?"
Police officer: "you do"
🤣🤦🏿♂️
Seems the officer got really deep there.
We all do officer... we all do.
Lmao
in fairness, I think the cop was responding to the "need to show ID"... even though he was completely wrong. In general, you don't need to show ID when there's no evidence that you have committed or about to commit a crime.
@@SuperDangerousMouse true... Officer Drunkass was late... But it's hard to not drink when you live in a van down by the river. ( Old Chris Farley joke)
By you do means you are black
That pig looked so athletic and mentally stable .. what a great recruit.
The restaurant could've shut this down immediately, but it was business as usual.
No they couldn't, and neither should you if put in a similar situation (not telling you what to do, just saying what would be in you best interest). The manager had no idea what was going on, for all she new it was a legitimate police action. You have the benefit of the video, the restaurant did not, they just saw the officer come in and start talking to the Mr. Townsend and didn't know everything that was going on. You interject yourself you could get arrested for interfering with police business. The officer lied when he said the manger had called them, and wished him to leave. This is totally on the officer, he was totally in the wrong, and no one else but him and the department that keeps him employed is at fault. It seems even Mr. Townsend realized that by taking a picture with the manager so she could clear her and the restaurant's name, this wasn't their fault they had noting to do with it.
It seems the owner was a bit shocked as well as people are when they call for help and things go awry.
If the restaurant didn't call and the policeman didn't state why he was questioning him. The restaurant wasn't wrong for not intervening. Maybe had they asked, what's the nature of your visit, the situation may have changed since the business was not trespassing him.
@@matthewmacdonald4687 if I were the owner, after hearing the man ask multiple times "what did I do", I have the OBLIGATION to protect MY BUSINESS/CUSTOMERS and intercede! If I didn't call the police, what are you here for? If you want to arrest me for "interfering", go ahead. But what I witnessed, was my customer being harassed.
That's me. I'll protect what is mine!
@@409CJ yeah you aren’t a bootlicker like buddy up top, you have a spine and testicular fortitude unlike the boy Matthew Macdonald
You don't have to show service papers. The law is once you tell them it's a service dog, they need to walk away.
You are not required to carry service papers and its illegal to ask for them
Wow! Even on RUclips I can smell the alcohol on the officer’s breath!
@@supdudehowsitgoing The fuck?
Kind of crazy ?
You doing the same thing the cop did and dont even reconize it .
@@andreasnitsch8119 What an asshole that looks like he does more drink than he doespolicing was doing just that?
@wrxassa He wasn't smoking buddy try again
You will not hear anything back until they have formulated a good excuse!
They are probably waiting for the attention to die down and the public forgets about it.
They not going to come through with it , Times have changed
@@josephpeters630 then warm it up again .
The excuse is that this punk was not following the commands of the officer.
Thank you for reporting on real racism everyday in the good ole USA.
I hope they fire and take his pension too.
Young man you handled that situation so well. Keep on keeping on.
Right totally agree. Nothing wrong with the couple they should be able to eat in peace not have this cop bugging them
hes mad the black dude has a white girl
@@tednguyen7258 Yep!
The cop had nothing on Marcus and was actually wasting both of their time. Being a racist seems like a lot of work!
not only is it alot of work, it costs tax payers millions of dollars to support racism. That is a fact the GOP does not want people to know. I did learn that in a real CRT class once I graduated law school......Millions are spent on racism when it does not need to be.
It comes naturally for them. Disgusting
Its genetic and look at the fat cops face does he look like he is worth anything?
oh, poor little victims. If you bothered wiping away the tears and looking up the laws, you would see that if you have a dog in an area where dogs arent allowed, police are allowed to ask you to provide proof that it is a service dog.
It’s really funny, when white people get arrested, you don’t see them crying about racial profiling. Break the law and you get arrested. That’s equality. Do better and stop rioting 🤡
Rights violated, get an attorney easy lawsuit.
Didn’t like the dog, didn’t like the black man, separate water fountains before you know it. 😔
Love to hear the 911 call on this situation, if it even exists.
Smart young man kept his cool, smart to send that pit bull home that dirty cop probably would of shot the dog.😗
@@xkxk4466
Probably.
Cop would have said the dog was commanded to kill him and he would be facing attempted murder charges by now.
Anything set forth in motion will remain in motion until acted upon by an equal and opposite force. Racism is alive and well because the same force used to create it has not been used to dismantle it. Get Your Minds Right.
It may be available on Broadcastify with a paid membership.
I'm sure piggy didn't like they were a multiracial couple either.
This went from asking for paper for a service dog to be accused of smoking dope outside,then it was said that the manager called the police on him.When he finally showed his identification, and it showed that he was in the clear,the police officer was still be aggressive lmaooooo.
My goodness it's never a dull moment.SMH
They're not police and he's not an officer, they're SS soldiers of the American Gestapo.
Cops are getting caught when they lie to citizens. These cops should be fired immediately for committing fraudulent acts and false accusations against the public.
And someone is still going to say it has nothing to do with race and it was just a case of a bad apple.
Nope
Actually the manager did not call the police. It was probably a patron who secretly called the police and said they were the manager
It’s horrible. He was harassing him +++++++++ and that has to stop I hope we hear what the outcome of a lawsuit is. That young man is a moms dream of a real good kid. Loved their dog too.
