The officer was understandably frustrated at these low IQ crackheads, but was completely unprofessional and should've been written up for saying that...escalated the situation when he could've just said, if you aren't going to cooperate I will just leave...If i were his supervisor, i would've written him up and required him to type an apology to send to them.
Question... what would happen to the McDonalds cashier if they told a customer to suck their unit? Trust me, cops are not the only ones in this world that have to deal with annoying people. Stop it.
Ok and again, not saying that behavior was acceptable. And to compare what police deal with to what McDs deal with is silly
Ex-Florida deputy gets 12 years for planting drugs
He got off easy. Another crime was committed in that court room.
Here is video of the sentencing.
Cops always f**kin with someone.I like this excerpt from the article:
Teresa Odom, one of Wester's victims, told the judge the deputy had ruined her reputation and deprived her of time with her grandchild. Wester had stopped her for a defective brake light in 2018 and asked for permission to search her truck. She agreed. He claimed he found a baggie of methamphetamine in her purse — but body camera video showed him palming a bag before beginning his search.
WTF is wrong with cops that do this kind of crap?

I got pulled over once because one of my 2 license plate lights was burned out. I mean seriously?There seems to be quite a few stories about cops pulling someone over for a busted tail light and then wanting to search the vehicle. Same thing happened with a UT football player here recently. Why do they need to search the vehicle in these instances? If the only problem is that one of the tail lights is out, tell the person to get it fixed and let them go or at most write them a ticket for it. A defective break light alone doesn't present the need to search the vehicle.
The Rutherford County Sheriff's Office says it involved an off-duty police officer from the Franklin County town of Decherd.

If you are asking if i think officers should be pulling people over for cracked windshields or no license tag light than no. I never did that. Pulling people over for moving traffic violations like running red lights or speeding is for prevention of traffic accidents. Pulling people over for headlights being out or things like that can be a safety issue especially at night, but things on a vehicle that can be fixed are usually dropped if the person shows they fixed it. There are times that officers use traffic violations because they have reasonable suspicion that other criminal activity is or has occurred but that comes with investigative experience.All you care to comment on is me having my facts mixed up on the UT player situation? Nothing else in that entire post?
