So, with the George Floyd trial going on, I found this traffic stop. . . a little, well, a bit of an over-reaction on the part of the police. I wonder if it has made the news at all?

In fact, I cannot imagine being treated this way. It is embarrassing that they treat the military this way. Just for dealer tags? I understand why he was afraid of them. . . I really do. They had no reason to ask him to exit the vehicle.

". . .They approached with guns pointed at the car, gave opposing instructions to a uniformed soldier behind the wheel, and then pepper-sprayed him -- all while threatening him with different charges and levels of violence for noncompliance.

“I can think of absolutely no reason under the sun as to why those officers should have exited their vehicles with their firearms trained on my client or any other,” explained lawyer Jonathan Arthur.. . "
 
There was a day when cops could help thin the herd of thugs. Unfortunately it looks like those days will soon disappear.

Sounds like the young Lt. did everything right, including pull over at a well lit gas station. I hope he gets a ton of money.

The cop said on his mic it was a felony traffic stop.

the felony was a minority behind the wheel.....
 
The police have always went all spastic when someone doesn't pull over the very second the lights go on. You can't look for a safer spot. You can't look for a lighted area. You can't look for a place with people around.

The police are going to have to look that people are NOT going to pull over somewhere they don't deem as safe.

All over the fact that the cops couldn't see his plate. There is never a reason to pull a gun over something like this.

I was on a jury for a young black man, deputies were trying to pull over. He drove a mile and a half further down the country road, till he got to a home with a big security light and honked his horn to wake up the white couple that lived there. The sheriff's dept. had him charged with resisting though there was no resistance, attempting to evade, though he pull over right where the drive met the road, failure to yield to blue lights and some other crap. I was foreman. We let him walk on everything. Young man used good sense. I like cops fine, but especially late at night, you want witnesses no matter who wants to pull you over in the middle of nowhere.

That lawyer is a liar.
I had cops converge on me one night while I was out jogging. Guns drawn as they exited their cars. At least ten cop cars. Ordered me to place my hands on the hood of their car. I complied. Obviously I fit a description but it wasn’t me. The cops came to the same conclusion and let me finish my jog.
 
Sounds like the young Lt. did everything right, including pull over at a well lit gas station. I hope he gets a ton of money.

Apparently he's only asking for one million. 10m would be my minimum after that nonsense which I just watched in its entirety for first time. First of all, the Second Lieutenant HAD the required temporary registration properly posted in his rear window. Second, I don't blame him for continuing slowly to a well-lit gas station. This could have gone much worse if he hadn't.

And finally, I wouldn't have reached down to unbuckle my seatbelt or open the door either. This fucker was on a hair trigger and likely looking for ANY excuse to blow the guy away. They had NO excuse to draw their weapons. You're correct, he did EVERYTHING right including hands in the air the entire time even when getting sprayed.

One of the most outrageous examples of bad policing I've ever seen. I do feel somewhat for his young partner, who looked totally perplexed and was shaking like a leaf. It was clear that he didn't understand the actions of his fat fuck pig partner.

A million is plenty. He didn't get shot. Million is just enough to get some attention to the problem. Ten Million would have been way too much. The modern get rich quick lawsuit crap over insult and slights and being put is danger but no harm, ain't right. I can understand everybody liking free money (which ain't free to the tax payer) but it ain't right.

You're probably right. It's actually a credit to the Lieutenant that he wasn't greedy.

Hey, if he nets $400,000 after settlement and attorney fees, it will be a good windfall for the young man. I don't thing I ever met a 2LT with $400,000 bucks in the bank in my life.
 
George Thompson had an excellent lesson on a car stop. Long but worth it.

More importantly, the officer was fired.
