Re: X-Post: Man arrested for not showing officer his License
- The man is a loser
- The store clerk is an even bigger loser
- The cop is joke, and should be reprimanded.
- The law is totally on the side of the man, for good reason
- The fact that cops don't know basic law, and initiate force and detention for which they have no authority, is [censored] up.
Why does this matter?
Because not everyone has a knowledge of their rights, the law, or has family, friends, money, intelligence and social standing to protect them. Such people can and do get trampled on by douchebag cops who can't perform the most basic tasks of their job correctly. People should speak up against these abuses of power, because when they happen to a homeless guy, a mentally ill person, or a shifty looking black guy just minding his business, people are subject to unnecessary assault, and can and do lose important personal freedoms for no good reason at all.
