Arreola said he and his wife, Jacqueline, were driving to a club about 10 p.m. on a Friday when they pulled into a Chevron station on Beach Boulevard in Buena Park to use the ATM. Jacqueline Arreola told her husband to buy her some Mentos.
Arreola, who wears his hair short but has a long goatee, can be seen in a store security video placing the candy on the counter and handing the clerk a $20 bill from the $60 he got from the ATM.
While waiting for his change, Arreola pockets the candy. Immediately, a man in black shorts standing behind him in line pulls a gun from the pocket of his black hoody, announces he is a police officer and tells Arreola to put the Mentos back on the counter.
Arreola throws his hands up and protests that he paid for the mints. The officer can be heard telling Arreola to take his change and leave, minus the Mentos. Finally, the officer asks the cashier if Arreola paid for the mints.
Yes, says the cashier.
“Are you sure?” the officer asks.
Again, the cashier says yes.
“My apologies,” the officer tells a visibly shaken Arreola.

First they're stealing our jobs, and now they're stealing our Mentos? Is there any low these wetbacks won't sink to?
This really shouldn't be funny

Well, he should have been polite and just accepted the fresh mint.This really shouldn't be funny
The picture tells the story, "we're all human." No politics, no graduate degree, no silver spoon, just plain old "Oh shit this is the end and it's gonna hurt." Could be any of us.This really shouldn't be funny
Killing commies, especially a commie that killed the soldiers of the country that Colonel was commissioned to defend is a noble thing. I've read a detailed account of the story behind that picture from the guy who took it. I would have had no problem blowing the fucker's brains out either.

Gun control has nothing to do with guns, it’s all about control… GrasshopperThis really shouldn't be funny

I believe you would have no problem blowing anyone's brains out. Disgusting gun nuts like that are why we need reasonable gun control.
LolAnother example of someone that has no business being a cop.
Civil lawsuit. And possibly denial of civil rights.

Being a cop is a thankless job, especially when you’re dealing with progressives...LolAnother example of someone that has no business being a cop.

People are not infallible, to be human is to be flawed... Sorry to have to the one to break this to you.

Cut him some slack. I'm sure he feared for his life. You seen those Mentos videos on Youtube?

It's not about commies.
Around 4:30 a.m., Lém led a sabotage unit along with Việt Cộng tanks to attack the Armor Camp in
Gò Vấp. After communist troops took control of the base, Lém arrested Lieutenant Colonel Nguyễn Tuan with his family and forced him to show them how to drive tanks.[6] When Lieutenant Colonel Tuan refused to cooperate, Lém killed Tuan, his wife and six children and his 80-year-old mother by cutting their throats. There was only one survivor, a seriously injured 10-year-old boy.[7]
Lém was captured near a mass grave with 34 civilian bodies. Lém admitted that he was proud to carry out his unit leader's order to kill these people.[8] Having personally witnessed the murder of one of his officers along with that man's wife and three small children in cold blood,[citation needed] when Lém was captured and brought to him, General Loan summarily executed him using his sidearm, a .38 Special Smith & Wesson Bodyguard revolver,[9] in front of AP photographer Eddie Adams and NBC News television cameraman Võ Sửu. The photograph and footage were broadcast worldwide, galvanizing the anti-war movement.
The execution appalled many people, but was most likely legal as Lém was acting like a "franc-tireur".[citation needed] According to Article 4 of the Third Geneva Convention of 1949, irregular forces are entitled to prisoner of war status provided that they are commanded by a person responsible for his subordinates, have a fixed distinctive sign recognizable at a distance, carry arms openly, and conduct their operations in accordance with the laws and customs of war. If they do not meet all of these, they may be considered francs-tireurs (in the original sense of "illegal combatant") and punished as criminals in a military jurisdiction, which may include summary execution.[citation needed] Lém had murdered a POW and civilians thus violating the rules of war. He was not marked by any identifiable marker showing that he was a legal combatant.

In that case it was about a communist.

Although the story pushed by the leftists was that it was a murder committed by an ARVN officer, the facts as usual tell a different story. Someone who cuts the throats of 6 innocent children and an 80 year old lady should have their brains blown out.
