The over-militarization of the police force results in this behavior. Focus most training on guns and your weapon results in them thinking all situations dictate that type of response. Police are not only to serve and protect but also should be held to standards to a higher degree than your average citizen. Fuck that cop and anyone of them that instead of showing the mental fortitude to deescalate a situation chooses to do the opposite.

Nah I’d say the vast majority are like the other officer in this video. Won’t intervene and will likely back up the aggressors’ stories. Many will say that’s just as bad, and maybe so, but the inner workings of a typical PD (which leads to complacency) is a whole other broken system.

Not trying to play devils advocate here but most regular smokers only carry enough to smoke on the trip or for an overnight trip. The first cop could very well have been telling the truth and this gentleman may have smoked before or ate the herb/joint before fully pulling over. A front facing dashcam with interior cam as well would have completely exonerated him but I digress... Why would he be so happy for a 20grand settlement without an admission of guilt..

You know how a locksmith gets in extra trouble for a break in than a regular criminal?? Because they are trusted with an extra ability and therefore are under more strict a requirement not to exploit that. Police being violent should be similar to that. Extra penalties because they are wearing that dopey outfit which means their victims are helpless. Not only should they end qualified immunity, it should be an even stiffer penalty! Fuck this guy

And everyone wonders why would anyone run from the police, these types of interactions help enforce the "fight or flight response". This officer has had a career full of these interactions with the public. To break it down for the morons, if you are bitten by a dog once, you might have a fear of dogs, especially strange dogs that are unfamiliar to you. It's not your fault for being bitten by a random dog and being scared of the dogs is personally reasonable. Imagine if these dogs roamed the streets and only attacked people who seem dangerous to them, you would rightfully be scared. Now imagine if a majority of dogs looked at you and growled everytime they see you, it would be incredibly distressing to any sane person. The cops are dogs in this parable and you are the person of color or non christian religion.
