Not really any back story to this, but it sure escalates quickly:
I’m not a fan of Law Enforcement harassing people, but I’m also not a fan of people being dicks to Law Enforcement. There’s definitely a fine line. This guy in the video obviously has a history with the cop, so that doesn’t bode well for their interaction if he thought he was being treated unfairly due to a past arrest. You know what though, If I was a cop and someone was a criminal once I’d have pretty good reason to suspect they were being a criminal again especially if WalMart called me down (I’m assuming this based on the video) to talk to him. Honestly could the guy have not just showed the receipt and went on about his night? I know that’s not the point though… but personally sometimes I do shit I don’t want to do just because it makes my life easier and I can go back to eating cheetos, reading blogs, and being alone you know? Slippery slope? Maybe.
The cop was actually being quite pleasant and professional in this video for the most part up until 2:58 “Because I like you I just want to take a picture of it” was jokes though LOL… nice try officer that was a condescending think to say you dickhead.
3:30 – “He’s trying to MIKE BROWN ME. I HAVE MY RECEIPT. HE’S TRYING TO MIKE BROWN ME.” Repeat x 52
Really though as I’ve said in the past, Law Enforcement looks like such a terrible job. You couldn’t pay me enough to deal with shitheads like this guy in the video.
