Of course not. Whether CP will admit it or not, though, his point supports the notion that cops are a threat.

I will admit that under the circumstances we're discussing they're a threat. Why poke the hornets nest? You May or may not get stung, but you're going to put yourself in a tricky situation.

Ras can't get past the legality of it. They have no legal right to pull you over, but if you piss them off they don't give a damn.

Your advise extends beyond LEO. Averages say acting like an idiot around ANYONE will eventually catch up to you.

If a customer flips a bird to a McDonalds cashier and they behave the way those cops behaved, they would get fired. But cops are more equal than the rest of society, I suppose.

PS: The "more equal" quote was a pig reference.

But it wouldnt be newsworthy. Ftr, shooting birds at LEO's is the least of my worries. But, I have to imagine they grew up horribly and will probably be another drag on society.

Mother of Pearl Ras ...... We all know cops are held to a higher standard but after all is said and done they are still human beings....which by nature usually respond adversely to a direct insult...... Using your cashier example...... Guy gives the cashier the bird.... Cashier jumps counter beats ass..... Cashier cannot legally do that..... But guess what? He did.
Was it a good idea to flip off the cashier? It doesn't seem so in this case. Can you grasp the concept?

Should the cop have been fired for pulling the guy over? I'd have been more inclined to fire him for saying he interpreted the gesture to mean the individual needed assistance..... Because he is either being a blatantly sarcastic tool and insulting my intelligence as his supervisor or he's a complete moron...... He should have just fessed up IMO

The only flaw in your analogy is that the cashier doesn't even have to go as far as beating the customer to get fired. Even if the cashier goes back and forth in a profanity filled tirade or even makes threats to a customer, that cashier is likely out of a job. Meanwhile, these Gainesville cops have no worries of being fired.

You are focusing on the consequences suffered by the bird flipper. I'm focusing on the lack of consequences for the cops.

What about the bogus azzed fellatio charge?

Kidnapping is too strong a word, but the driver and passenger were needlessly detained/stopped by a bunch of butt hurt cops on the clock. The made up a bogus excuse for not filming and accused the girlfriend of performing fellatio. Yeah, they deserve fired.

Ras, it was your analogy

And CP added to it by talking about the cashier jumping the counter and beating the customer... My original analogy didn't go that far. All I said was if a cashier had behaved like the cops did, they would have been fired.

I didn't read that part. I only got as far as the clown saying he thought the gesture indicated the individual was asking for help..... What an idiot

Are you going to go and flip off a marine just because you can and they're not supposed to react? I really really hope you do. See what happens.

I get your point..... But unfortunately for the cop haters .... The cops have a higher level of responsibility than the cashier and as a result get more leeway in these types of situations.... That's just thruway it is....., it's not CP's way.... I don't make the rules

I believe the cop should've been fired. Have you had any personal interactions with police that mightve contributed to how you feel toward leo?

Thruway??

That is not the argument I'm making. I'm saying that a marine or a cop or a civilian that behaves like these cops did while on the clock should be fired. If the put their hands on someone because a bird was flipped, they deserve jail.
