This video looked like a life threatening situation for that cop. He was getting his arse beat and that guy could have easily grabbed his gun.

I have no problem with him getting a bullet in this one. Like I said it sure as shite subdued him more efficiently than a taser would have.

This guy is acting a defiant a-hole over a seatbelt violation?

Seriously?

This is why it's just not worth arguing over. Just help things move along and you may only get a warning.

I just don't see how it's worth fighting a cop over. Then he gets physical with them.

His attitude infuriates me, but if someone wants to waste more time arguing and potentially escalating a situation then more power to them.

The cop showed amazing restraint.

Idiot got what he deserved.

He told the cop he was going to knock him. Repeatedly threatened him.

He then fought the officer, including violently body slamming him to the ground.

Then he starts throwing punches, including striking him on the back/side of the head.

All before he was shot.

If anything, it was justifiable to use any force necessary to stop him.

You go to those lengths then you maybe should expect to be shot..

All over a potential seatbelt ticket.

A SEATBELT TICKET. He is such trash.

If a cop pulled me over for a seatbelt violation and I actually had my seatbelt on I would tell him he must be mistaken. Then I would still cooperate to get things moving along. I would rather pay an unjustifiable fine than get arrested over it.

This guy was an a-hole looking to start stuff.

Whren v United States was one of the worst decisions rendered by the Supreme Court.

It allowed pretextual stops. Now every single minor traffic stop can turn into a ridiculous investigation of anything.

Seatbelt violations now end up with people out of the car on the side of the road. People are being pulled over for Pine tree air fresheners hanging from the mirror etc.

Cops follow people until they see some minor infraction or until they can think of one to make up now. Then dogs are inside your car tearing shite up.

And here is the conclusion. Ridiculous he got any money from it.

quote:

The city of Lawrence, Kan., has agreed to pay $80,000 to settle an excessive force lawsuit filed by a Black man who was shot by a rookie police officer in 2018 during a traffic stop.

Akira Lewis sued the city, two officers, the police department and the police chief after he was shot. He alleged the officers used excessive force and that the traffic stop was racially motivated.

The city contended Lewis caused the confrontation by unreasonably refusing to get out of his car.

Under the settlement approved Friday, neither the city or Lewis accepted liability for the shooting, The Lawrence Journal-World reported.

Lewis was shot when he was pulled over by officers Ian McCann and Brindley Blood. Lewis refused to get out of his car or give the officers his identification. A police video shows McCann trying to pull Lewis from the car.

When Lewis began hitting McCann, Blood shot him. She said later she meant to use her Taser but drew her gun instead. An aggravated battery charge against her was dropped and she later left the force.

Lewis was sentenced to a year of probation after pleading no contest to battery of a law enforcement officer.


I am glad her charges were dropped, because of the circumstances. I hate he got 80k, but at least it wasn't millions.

Just because one cop said taser should not mean the situation has to be a taser. He was putting an absolute beatdown on that officer.

And OFC he pulled the race card. He is all about victimhood. How about just be a respectable man and accept your traffic violation? Dude was whining like a bitch in front of his woman?

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.
you serious? Thats IS how it is supposed to work. And you will most likely find that if you follow instructions even though you know you are in the right, the matter will be solved right then and their, and if that cop is having a bad day or is just a douche, you will win when other non hot heads take a look at the issue. BUT going against instruction is when YOU make the cop the judge, jury and sometimes executioner.

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.
Give me a break, there is WAY more back ground to this story than and old couple going to jail fro meth laced cotten candy, or it is just a fabrication to go along with your argument. Hell ASUMMING they did get arrested for what you are saying, why the frick did they spend months in jail? Bonding out is easy. thats their fault.

Do you know how easy it is to just cooperate?

Some of these minor infractions are what leads to catching potential bigger fish BTW. Heck some serial killers have been caught, because of stuff like this.

Most upstanding citizens will cooperate and be on their way in a matter of minutes.

FWIW, I can't think of the last time anyone I know got pulled over by the police. The times I have been pulled over by the police I was extremely respectful and they often ended up without a ticket even being issued.

I once had a police officer pull me over for literally no violation whatsoever and ask to search my vehicle. It didn't bother me, so I let him and then I was on my way. I never once even asked why and I still don't know why to this day. It took all of maybe 3 minutes.

You think that's what happened here? The cop was just only going to give him a seatbelt violation and move on.

Cops have been shot simply walking up to the vehicle without having the chance to say a word.

the one where the cop walks up and is shot, then retreats and the POS comes around and executes him while he begs for his life is gut wrenching. All that cop was doing was about to write him a speeding ticket.

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.

Why did he put up a struggle & resist for just a seatbelt violation?

It’s a simple question.

I did a little research, and yes, in some states it is illegal to have anything hanging from your rear view mirror. Seems stupid though.

It's also not why he was pulled over. He was pulled over for expired registration.
