      Will you be making a video on the time news now Patrick was assaulted by the York Nebraska police?
      He requested a complaint form, was denied and then the officer who denied him the form followed him into the parking lot and attempted to batter Patrick by his own admission after taking several pictures of Patrick. Patrick and the girl he was with (not sure what his relationship with her is) left and went back to their vehicle to discover the same officer stalked them to their vehicle to take their tags and vin number off the vehicle. When they blocked the officer's view of the tags he went to the front to get the vin and broke Patrick's finger with his flashlight. Finally he went to the back and used force to move the girl out of his way to take their tags.
      He claims to be a 40+ year veteran of the force but breaks several laws to deny people a complaint form and find out who they are.

      One of the best 1AA related channels. I remember this. "Totality" is simply theory, once graduating cadet school . . . I consider it defrauding the public to take an oath to the Constitution; number one, without knowing what the basis of that oath might be and two, NEVER INTENDING to keep that oath, with prior expectations of transferring its primacy to the Blue Line Flag. Just sayin'. Plus, potential collusion, of course.

      I meant defensive mode but a better way to put it is that the other officer wanted the other officers alert and ready to defend themselves with force if needed. If the other officers knew it was a trash grabber rather than a blunt object they probably would have been more at ease and less on alert and less defensive.

      That's a double edge sword that could yield multiple results. You can have officers abiding by the law and keeping themselves accountable, but you can very well see the other end of more corruption and making sure they don't lose that pension. What really needs to happen is more body cameras, one's that can't just be turned on an off on a whim. More training and background checks. And a separate entity to investigate cases of the police. To many times we hear stories of "We investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong."
      And one more thing, we can't allow police officers who have been fired (on legit grounds that they are not fit to be an officer) from one county to be allowed to become an officer again in another. That defeats the purpose of firing them to begin with.

      we actually have a regular homeless man that picks up trash outside of our building and comes in to ask if he can use our lan line. Our supervisors would very likely demand that we trespass the homeless man and force him to spend some time in jail if they were at the building seeing this happen. But we're never going to do that until we're officially ordered to.
      This is just how police departments are.

Many cops are racists. In fact most are, even the black cops are racist against whites. No, not all but a higher amount than you would think. I always have to wonder about cops anyway, what makes them want such a job? dictator complex, power trip, what. Anyone that willing seeks out and takes that job, well you have to wonder about their sanity. Got to be a bit off to even want such a job.

      I offered up ideas where they work like other dash and security cameras. Constantly loop recording, but only saving once activated. They cannot turn off the camera or alter it in any way. It includes the 5 mins prior to the activation signal and the 5 mins after the all-clear signal. The camera is tied into the radio so if they use it, it starts to save the recording. Dispatch and the commanding officers are the only ones able to send the all-clear command to stop recording. Dispatch will also activate the recording if they dispatch a particular unit. Rules in place about shutting off the radio. The data on the camera must be saved, stored and VERIFIED at the end of each shift by a superior. If any shenanigans happen, that commanding officer gets caught up too. Not to mention adding federal level laws that govern the way law enforcement interacts with the public. There HAS to be a standard.

      Dude didn't help his own case tho. When you're being detained saying "no I'm not" doesn't mean you can walk away. You are better off fighting it in the court rather then in the street when it's happening. Because you can get paid. The fact he walked away, he's not going to get paid. It's so easy nowadays to fight sht thanks to body cams. A lot of cases get thrown out over stop not being lawful and dude had an easy case to win.

      That's why you shouldn't take the bait. Cops (especially city cops) will bait you just to get their number of arrests up. Thank god for body cameras now because dude would've been fuxked up but the first minute if this was 20 years ago. The only down side is, cops are afraid to go hands on because of the backlash so they are quicker with their guns. It's weird how 20 years ago you were less likely to get shot then you are. But you were more likely to get fuxked up and charged with some bullsht.

      I understand his very reasonably distraction. But for those of us with the benefit of hindsight, yes, that could be used to kill someone. It's not nearly as effective as a baseball bat, but even bare fists can kill. A trash picker doesn't make a very good weapon (it's far too light), but it could be employed as one.
      This is, of course, rather beside the real point: compliance. But setting that aside, it's reasonable for an officer to see the trash picker as a potential weapon. Though it probably wasn't in his best interest to emphasize that point to a suspect if he actually thought violence was imminent.
