What are the usual bullsh*t excuses when vids like this are made? Its a difficult job or is it that the guy apparently said something in a apparently disrespectful voice. There can never be any excuse for an officer to come into someones home, without any cause and treat the like that.

pretty sure you can't arrest someone without telling them why you are arresting them

Don't really see what colour has to do with it, but unfortunately officers abusing their position and basically being on a power trip is nothing new at all. Just need to watch a few of the protests and stuff we get over here to see that...

Cops deal with crazy criminals all day everyday. it's not surprising they can be a bit jumpy or even paranoid sometimes. It's not like cop killers wear a sign on their heads. In certain communities it's more like a war zone than a neighborhood, and cops need to act more like soldiers.

When a cop tells you to do something you do it, period. When you act sketchy like this guy, the cops will treat you like a sketchy mother****er. what's so hard to understand about that? Notice the guy is being argumentative and sketchy from the beginning.

The **** lol

All he asked is "what have I done sir?" He didn't resist arrest, disrespect the officer, or act "sketchy" or suspicious at all. Coming into someone's house and handcuffing them while threatening to pull out a gun without explaining why you are making the arrest is more sketchy than anything he done.

He was trying to hold the door closed, and telling the officer what he can or can't do by law. He was certainly not cooperative.

I always find it hilarious when crims think they know the law better than the cops. lol

how can you say he's not acting sketchy? is that how you'd react if a cop knocked on your door??

Not sure about in the US, but I'm nearly certain that our police have to tell you why you are being arrested, rather than just doing it and being an ignorant twat when being asked why :/

They can also only pin you down if you are being violent or trying to escape, not just coz they feel like it like this looks like

Going off the fact the cop said **** all then I'm taking that there was no warrant to break into the house. It's not a crime to keep the door half closed and want to know why he wants to come in...

It's **** policing by a **** person.


As for your question. If an officer tries break in without a warrant and won't tell me why he's arresting me damn right I'm acting how he did. Hell I would kick up a far greater fuss than he did and wouldn't be calling him "sir".

cops have to get the situation under control first. US cops have to tell you what you're being arrested for, but only AFTER the situation is under control. They don't have to explain themselves BEFORE they arrest you and get you in custody.

I'm sure after he was arrested he was told why he was being arrested.

The situation WAS under control though. The guy was speaking to him and not being violent or anything at all :shrug:

well you can do what you like and you'll end up in the exact same situation. now if you were polite and respectful, guess what, you might not get arrested, cause the whole thing could be sorted out in a civilized way.

When you act like a sketch, when you act like an animal, you get treated as such.

no, the guy was trying to dictate to the cop how things would go. the cop is in charge, period, Cops have the authority. He was acting like he was in charge, he's the king of his castle, and acting like the cop was just some nobody wandering up to the door.

That's not how you respond to police officers.

oh please, i've heard that a million times from crims on COPS the TV show. they try to say the right thing, while resisting and doing weird things with their hands (usually trying to hide drugs).

It's like when someone is resisting arrest and then screaming "police brutality!" while they are fighting against the cops.

You do what you're told, and then you'll have plenty of time to defend yourself in a civil way. if it's a misunderstanding, and they got the wrong guy, you aren't going to convince anyone by being belligerent and flailing around and screaming "rodney king!!!"

that might be true, but who else is willing to do the job? no matter what their motives, they are still doing a job that the vast majority of us would never do.

There's no way in **** i'd ever do that job. I'd be scared ****less dealing with the kind of people they have to deal with on a daily basis.

Making excuses for pitiful police work due to a misplaced sense of patriotism is a terrible thing to do. The situation will never improve if you try to brush it under the rug. Policing is a hard job but one that comes with a lot of power and if someone can't handle that due to stress or general misuse of power then they don't deserve to be an officer, especially in a place like America where all officers carry guns.

Poor police work should never be accepted or tolerated because when the police screw up lives can be lost.

it would be a good job if could do it fairly but even the ones who join with good intentions end up being jaded and treating everyone the same. its because of the dodgy situations that makes those ones lose sight which is a shame. because its the good people who pay.
i'd do it but i couldn't handle the injustice and adrenaline junkies lol

how is it patriotism? the police have nothing to do with America as a country. police forces are very localized in the US, none of them are hired by the federal government.

I certainly agree that we need better cops, but if better people, noble people, intellectual people are not wiling to be cops, then what do you do?

Why aren't better people applying to be cops? We need police, we need people willing to run into dangerous situations, but if smarter people are not willing to take on that job, then what do you do?

Unfortunately you are expecting intelligent, high-minded people to apply for police jobs, and thats just not going to happen. Smart people don't want to be cops. (and i don't blame them)

I just don't think you'd be on the officer's side if they weren't American.

You don't need to be that intelligent to be a good officer, you just need good training, discipline and a cool head. It's the Patrol and Beat officers that are often caught abusing their position so it's a problem with the officers lower down on the totem pole. Better training is needed as well as strict consequences for officers that abuse their power. You hear far too often about a precinct protecting an officer in the wrong instead doing the right thing by the victims.

Well i agree with pretty much everything you've said, but when people attack cops, and have an anti-cop mentality, it's not surprising that they try to protect each other, because you are creating an us vs. them situation. I don't think demonizing cops does anything to improve the situation.

and these type of videos don't help eigther, because for every bad cop video, there are 1000 situations where cops were being professional and reasonable, but those don't trend on twitter or make it to the front page of reddit, do they? so it paints an unfair picture when the only videos you see of cops are when there's a bad one.

There are plenty of bad teachers and bad doctors and bad every other profession too.

I don't feel comfortable jumping on the anti-cops bandwagon.

I'd agree with the bolded point normally but the problem is that there's a lot of these videos and stories popping up lately. I'm not saying that everyone in the police is at fault but it's worrying how common these stories are becoming.

We're only just entering April but I've seen a crapton of these stories so far this year.
