I don't disagree this first cop likely did something wrong. But I no longer trust initial videos of anything. What is the huge problem with waiting for everything to come out?


Let's reverse it if you saw the same video except the boy slapped the cops hand and flipped him off would you feel comfortable you had seen enough to arrest and charge him?

I'd still want to see the entirety of the video before deciding anything. Going through hypotheticals is irrelevant rhough. The only things we know for sure are what was seen on the video and that the video is incomplete. It doesn't look good, but these things rarely are how they are presented initially.

This post right here is what is wrong in politics. This idiot is taking personal decisions and forcing them to fit in a political context.
Like all conservatives think one way and all liberals think another. I doubt mr. Trout knows the differences of the politics beyond the absolutes he personally applied to them.

Let's just make it legal for cops to do anything they want and allow them to commit crimes if they feel like it. You may be comfortable with an authoritarian state like that most Americans are not.

What I always find amazing is I had a platoon of mostly 18-20yo that often got fricked with but never once did I see one break the ROE. They were able to keep a level head in much more stressful conditions than MG.

From the limited video we got in op, it looks like the cops fricked with him first.

I would rather patrol Baghdad, Pristina or rural Afghanistan than Orleans or Jefferson Parish. Much nicer people. We also get to go home. I'm sure you noticed a different attitude on the local police who had to live there.

Police, for the most part, are a false sense of security.

While true, I have a hard time coming up with anything that would justify the officers actions.

There are at least two @$$hole cops there that need to be fired and charged with disorderly conduct, at least.

There are many variables.

such as?

What situation would have made it ok for the cop to knock the phone out of the kid's hand and flip him off if he wasn't going to detain/arest him?

There is no full story that would excuse what the police did. No matter what "full story" could be given that was the wrong way to handle it by the police. Can you even cook up a possible scenario where their actions were constructive and professional? No, it is not possible. This is pathetic.


I picked your post to make this one, but I'm not to single you out. And I really haven't chosen a side on this yet because I don't know what exactly triggered the cop. But I DO believe that there things the kid could have said that would make me be OK with the cop's reactions. Say they know each other. Say a year ago the kid beat up his kid to the point of his kid can't walk. Now this kid sees the cop and starts taunting him, hey pig, how is that punk arse bitch of a son doing? Etc, etc. And hey, I got the video of me kicking his arse on my phone, wanna see it? Yeah, if that's what happened, would you blame the cop? Would you charge him? If on a jury, would you convict? I wouldn't. Hell, I watched a video of a guy blow another guy's head off at the BR airport....dude didn't spend a day in prison.

Not saying what happened here was that extreme. Prolly wasn't. If cop just overreacted to some bullshite, yeah, then discipline him. But is it possible the little punk had it coming, yeah. We just don't know.

Not illegal.

Cops job is to enforce the law, not break it.

Still nobody able to come up with a scenario that would make the cop's actions appropriate.

Some real dumb mfer's in this thread blowing the cops and wanting to treat them like royalty.

So, now the cops can beat arse because someone "had it coming"?

Idiot.

I agree with the scenario you describe here, it very well could have been an exchange of something personal.

Another scenario is the kid could have thrown something at the Cop.

The first Cop was well past the kid and came back because something happened or there was a verbal exchange.

There's much more to this story. Something already happened and the phones were out recording.

kid definitely failed the "situational awareness" part of the test. Pretty fricking stupid to give double birds to a cop when 10 of his friends are standing less than 4' away.

He definitely exercised his right to free speech.


looks like JPSO heard him loud and clear.
