The contrast of the last two videos is striking. First video is good, it’s nice to see folks doing this.

The cop asked the young man in the second video who had been stopped for a very minor traffic infraction, who had his moms car searched by a dog why he had a negative view of police. Let’s see here, he’s been stopped, harassed, put in handcuffs for a traffic infraction. He’s literally standing there talking to the young man while he’s in handcuffs asking this crap. Really, I wonder why he has a negative view of cops....

Some out there need recorded, but I've watched plenty where the cops were doing nothing, and the person recording we're trying to make a scene on video. I know there are some Yahoo cops, but there's also some Yahoo people also.

Always record every interaction with the cops. Never rely on their body cam footage, as we’ve seen they’ve been known to mysteriously cut off at the most critical time. People are people, a silly costume and a politicians scribble doesn’t change that.

I get your point, and agree. I'm just saying that I'm not gonna go provoke a cop for likes on a video. I've seen those, and just think they're silly.

Yeah, there are tons of those videos and I agree. It's hard to tell from this one. However, once they say he's not being detained and he walks off, they follow him. That makes it a little suspicious. They should have just left him alone at that point.

Holy crap... The nerve of those officers to act as though they’re some kind of victims all because the (from all accounts outstanding) young man they pulled over, yanked out on the streets, handcuffed, and then fabricated a reason to violate his rights and search the car didn’t like what was happening to him. That is literally incomprehensible to me.

And then to sit there and bad mouth his mom like she’s some lying POS. What fantasy world are these imbeciles living in?

Also... Best quote from that video is at the end where the guy says there’s a difference in lawful policing and good policing.

And though not one bit of that incident was good policing, I’d argue that after the initial stop none of it even lawful. We didn’t make it a minute into the video before they started breaking law. They had absolutely zero reason to pull that kid out of the car and put him through all that. There’s absolutely no doubt that they planned on searching that car the minute they saw who was driving it.

And that is exactly what the cops and their defenders use whenever the cops find themselves in a ridiculous situation. They will say that their actions were "legal".

You want true constitutional policing? The cops should only protect life and property, that’s it. Everything else is an extortion racket.

Define your terms.

If a person is driving while smoking pot and stoned, is arresting him not protecting lives?

No. That’s called pre crime, counselor.

But of course since a simple plant is deemed illegal, partaking of that plant is a crime. Yay freedom!

Actual crimes have victims.
