Finally saw this infamous video. Here I was hoping it was as it was being reported, but surprise, nope. I tell yas, the ignorance of folks, about what it is to be a police officer staggers me. These officers, like firemen, are the ones routinely rushing into a dangerous situation, while others are running out. shall we count the number of executions of police officers, coming from a routine traffic stop?? Yes, officers make mistakes, officers can and have used excessive force, but that doesn't make it a universal standard. The vast majority of police officers, just like the vast majority of teachers, are outstanding at their job.
As C was trying to educate our "professor", police officers don't have the power of hindsight. They have to assume EVERY situation is potentially dangerous....otherwise they wouldn't have been called. This woman, thanks to today's proverbial culture of flaunting authority, was making herself out to be a idiot & ass, all rolled into one bikini. YOU COMPLY WITH AN OFFICER'S INSTRUCTIONS.....PERIOD. You can get all mad and even sue, later, but her actions, literally escalated the situation, in which other guys started to charge the officer, which then prompted him to pull his weapon.
Thank you Obama, thank you Holder, and thank you Sharpton, for bringing us to this level of disrepecting authority. I hope you guys can live with the blood of the next tragic accident that would have never come to be, if people would simply comply with an officer's instructions
