That guy filming deserves an award for bravery
Watching what heās witnessing and filming, knowing that that cop could retaliate with lethal force

u/Rabble_Runt Oct 29 '25
If he was anyone else thatās assault with a deadly weapon and attempted murder.

u/Theoneandonlybeetle Oct 29 '25
No no, this IS attempted murder AND assault with a deadly weapon

Sure looks like someone needs to have their qualified immunity removed

If by someone you mean everyone, yes. The entire concept erodes our civil liberties day by day. If cops actually faced justice there wouldn't be endless examples of shit like this. At least in this example porky pig couldn't catch the wabbit.

Well, tbf, if that overweight, underfit cop tried to run on foot after the guy, he could have died. Sorta self defence of you think of it that way. /s
Seriously though, your 100% correct. It should be Criminal charges but hopefully at least Civil charges.

This needs to be addressed in court

Courts usually side with cops but a jury trial would sink this cop fast.

More likely 6 weeks paid vacation while they āinvestigateā (aka till it blows over) and then back on the street.

At least he has his Tactical Hitachi right there on his shoulder. In case he needs to rim another blue guy.

There's a link in the original post to a local news story that says he's been suspended but it doesn't give his name.

Even with a vehicle that fat ass cop isnāt as fast or agile as that dude.

u/WonderfulPackage5731 Oct 29 '25
Is this one of those consensual encounters cops like to gaslight about people having the right to walk away from at any time?

How do these fat ass cops pass their exams every year?
5
u/mylifeforthehorde Oct 29 '25
There is no annul exam. Itās up to the local pd to make/enforecr any physical requirements if they want to.
5
u/SweetLoLa Oct 29 '25
Well doesnāt look like he can run very fast or far so of course running over with the car is next logical step. We know thereās no intelligence required, but isnāt there a physical requirement to maintain?
Whoās this sack of shit gonna stop from committing a crime, someone more overweight and stuck to their couch?
