My dad always told me if I ever got in trouble with the law, to just go along with it and have my day in court and fight it then.
People these days have no respect to for law enforcement.

My personal problem with that is that

1.) That's not how it is suppose to work. As an American citizen, I am suppose to be entitled to certain rights. The police cannot ignore just because they want to. I'm not talking about this particular incident, but in general.

2.) Too many people have just gone along with it and have it cost them dearly. I am thinking of a case where a husband and wife were pulled over. They see some dried up cotton candy from the fair the day before. The cops test it, it test positive for meth. The couple went along with it, thinking it would be quickly figured out. They spent months in jail waiting for them to retest it and eventually fixed.

These people were ripped away from the life, jobs, and kids because of a faulty test and a dumbass cop.

What about the college football player that had bird poop test positive for cocaine. His name was blasted all over media, he was suspended, missed a game, and arrested.

When the police are in the wrong, but too proud to back off or fix it, it ends up costing regular people a ton. Time, money, effort, and reputation. Mean while the same cops get to go lay in their beds at night consequence free.

I know cops have a hard job, but I think it's only fair that people are starting to hold them to a higher standard. I cannot think of another job where people could mess up or ruin peoples lives like they do, and people would just shake it off.

Yep. You're chances of winning the battle go up exponentially.

On the other hand, you're chances of taking an arse whipping by multiple cops or getting your lights permanently put out by a trigger happy, scared cop go up exponentially if you decide to fight right there in the side of the road.

You would think with how often police brutality is on the black community, you would think the blacks would have figured out that trying to run away or fighting with cops usually ends up bad for them 98% of the time. And a lot of this stuff is over simple stupid shite. You would think they would learn by now.

When I got my license my dad said, "if you get pulled over shut the frick up and answer questions yes sir or no sir." Of course he also said to do that when interacting with any adult. It's almost like he knew that if you treat people with respect they will usually do the same to you.

That's what any rational person would do. But the left and celebrities have been telling black people to resist, because they want these things to happen so they can push their agenda.

pretty much all these situations of people being killed by police started with people not complying. Its that fricking simple.
