The way police are trained to handle these situations is ask, tell, force! First you ask nicely, if that doesn't work you ORDER the suspect to do what you want, and if that doesn't work you FORCE the suspect to do what you want! If any of you have a better way of handling things we all would love to hear it ... |

One thing about driving is when your pulled over your rights are a little different. If you choose to drive then you are required by law to show ID when pulled over end of story. She said "Go Ahead" when he warned her then resisted when he called her bluff. End of story. Ron Paul or Bust |

Liberty87 User ID: 23684987 United States 09/14/2012 12:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Look, I'd fight against a cop who threw me to the ground for no reason or something, but she was doing 66 in a 50, and then literally told the cop to take her to jail when she responded, "Well do it..." to his statement of she'd be going to jail if she refused. And then she decides to get high and mighty about him hurting her arm when she continues to not comply. I'm sorry she had a bladder infection, I hope she wasn't hurt, but she got what she wanted and in my opinion has no ground in this case as she wouldn't have gotten hurt if she hadn't told him to take her to jail then refused to get out of the vehicle. There's other ways to go about the whole ID and insurance thing than her course so I feel no real sorrow for her plight and don't think the cop was out of his jurisdiction and could have pulled her to the ground in a whole lot worse ways. *shrugs* But whatever. What's my opinion matter? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 22538971 United States 09/14/2012 12:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A hero would have taken the time to deal with the situation effectively. Also, there may not be a LAW that actually REQUIRED the ID to be produced RIGHT AWAY. A requirement to produce isn't a requirement to produce in under 30 seconds. She said she would produce it, he could have gave her a moment to get her foggy memory together. Being rude and cranky isn't against the law. I'm not saying the was completely wrong.. But a hero? Give me a break. He was another trashy control freak that couldn't take the time to do the right thing so he did the lawful thing. |
