So he had someone get out of his car or met up with his partner who is also filming.


In short, I don't care if his partner was filming also or not -- people have had their phones seized on some pretext or none (and then videos deleted), so it was wise that there was someone else around and a ways away before pushing back at this obnoxious cop.

It may very well be that he had someone with him in the car, and when she started giving him a hard time, they decided that person should leave the car and get ready to film before the cop showed up.

I definitely fell out of love with this obnoxious cop when he tried to pull the "I smell odor coming from your car" stunt.

That's what these idiots do people.


Good for "these idiots". And like I said in number 25 https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1187&pid=69253

he doesn't appear to be someone doing this serially. So I'm not buying that it was all a prior setup any more and that he does this to make money on YouTube as you imply in #16.

Maybe these "idiots" were extremely very tired of being detained and questioned while being black or brown or, as another example of what happens to black and brown people in greatly disproportionate numbers, being pulled over. You, I'm sure, have heard the expression, "driving while black", and the statistics back this up.
