takes one to know one?

but also, I'd be very sorry to live in your world where everybody is justified at screaming and acting threatening at each other just because they're a lil bit frustrated. This isn't about the fact that he blew up, yeah it happens, but...it's about the fact that thats not acceptable behavior. The way I see it, yelling at other people is never a way to treat others, and when you do it you deserve the repercussions they entail, not some rationalizing to make yourself or others thing degrading others is an ok way to vent frustration.

Oh, and one thing ive always wondered about cop hatred threads, is how many people who bitch about cops, obey the law in the first place. If you watch the above video, i personally cleared in the first step.

Obey the law.

If we could trust all the cops to do the same, we wouldn't have any of these so-called "cop hatred" threads, now would we?

If complaining about cops abusing their position is "cop hatred", then I think it's only fair to label the opposite position "hatred of freedom". Turnabout, after all, IS fair play, isn't it?

Is he a professional? If so, why did he let himself get wound up?

Because he is human.

The arrested person was a hell of a lot more calm than he was.

That is the key to stitching someone up.

This cop apparently has such a short fuse that I can't imagine what the person could have said to get him that angry
"apparently"...yet you only see the second part of the ecounter so nothing is clear and appearances can be deceptive.
As for making a cop angry, why not try it.
Just follow my suggestion earlier and see how many times you can ask a cop the time before he gets really wound up.
If you time it right you can get yourself a nice video for youtube of a cop losing it just because you asked him once for the time in a nice calm polite way.

Hey, isn't that something like pushing someone until they lose it? :hmmm:

You know, i think it's rather disappointing that at least 1 person that's posted in my thread has indicated that this is a cop hate thread!
Never ever has there been the case, certainly from my o.p. nor anywhere else that i or the purpose of this thread was to discuss or insinuate that cops should be, are or must be hated/disliked.
Pees me off that does.
What also annoys me is that it seems to be a feeling made clear by some of you that it is absolutely looked down upon or frowned upon when one asks questions of cops, or their behaiviour towards the public, when conducting their jobs.
Seems to me that that is a big no-no.
Newsflash, why the heck shouldn't we be able to ask questions about how police men and women conduct themselves whilst on duty?
Hell, we mere mortals are held accountable for our day to day actions and behaviour in our jobs.
What makes it so different when it's a cop?
And the well, it's a dangerous job, or they wear a badge or they are there to enforce the law arguement doesn't cut it.
So, let's refrain from insinuating that this is a cop hater thread, stop putting words in my mouth, when all i did was post this video, along with a question about the professional or not conduct of the police officer in the clip.
For the record, again:
I don't hate cops, i respect them and their jobs.
However, it is also my right, God given, within the bounds of the law, to question actions of the law enforcement if i think that they are unprofessional.
I loosly use the term unprofessional.
Make of that word what you will.

No, you can still be wrong without me knowing everything. :yep:
