@@wizzard4063 Well no- not quite: If I want to get you to comply with what I'm asking you to do, there's really only one way to do it, which is to use coercion. Practical Example: "If you don't put your hands behind your back right now and stop resisting, you're going to get pepper sprayed in the face and it will burn." Now, if you continue to resist and act a fool, after being warned- you simply deserve to lie in your own bed of roses. In this case, the individual was given the option to comply with the verbal command to exit the vehicle several times. What's important here is that, for officer safety as well as law enforcement reasons, this is not the proper time nor the place to go on about "your rights" and "keeping the black man down". Rather, if you THINK your so-called "rights" are being violated (which unless you're an attorney, rest assured the law doesn't give you the rights you THINK you have- this is an area where by all means you should do your research and know the actual law as opposed to myth of what the majority of people erroneously THINK the law is), your sole recourse of action is to file a lawsuit. Even if your rights are being violated, it doesn't give you the legal right to resist arrest, to engage in obstruction, etc. because these things are, in and of themselves, crimes without legal exception. The exception is those FEW states (only two states have a law to this effect to my knowledge, Oklahoma being one of them). that explicitly allow a person to use reasonable force, but never deadly force, to terminate "excessive" force- BUT even these states require a person to cease resisting once the excessive force is in fact terminated. The big problem with this is that the force used must actually be excessive, not merely interpreted as such by you- meaning the federal district court had better damn well agree with your position and version of the facts.
One look at that cop and you can see he shouldn't be a cop. When a person doesn't care to take care of their own body, that says a lot about them. So he doesn't care about his own body and health, you could imagine how little he cares about doing his job right.
What happened? We need an updated please
"I'm scared" "You should be" That tells me EVERYTHING I need to know about that officer.
