Did you watch it to the end? Notice the date on the video. It is 1992. The guy starts spouting about how things are going to get better because Clinton is making his acceptance speech that night.
I wonder if the guy is a lib?[;)]0 -
"Sir, you better pick that up or ill write another for littering."
HAHA! [:D][:D]0 -
That has been around forever. I used to have a copy of it on VHS and I played it for my CHL class in the part on non-violent dispute resolution. That officer is a master.
That guy in the little SUV better be glad he didn't get stopped in Garland. (Texas)0 -
Quick Bondai, find something wrong with what the LEO did here. I think he showed too much restraint....[:D] 0 -

nunn, couldnt he get ticketed for calling those names too?0 -
That Trooper showed far more restraint than I would have.
About two minutes into the encounter, the guy would have been resiting, and his scalp would get messaged.
I wonder if the violator is still alive ??

i think cursing at an officer can cost you a disorderly charge. 0 -

I used to live in Garland. You're right![:D]0 -
Disorderly conduct includes using bad language in a public place, providing there are people around who might be offended. The courts have held that a police officer cannot be offended, so if he is the only one hearing the profanity, NO, he can't take action on it.
In Texas, a peace officer also can't arrest a violator for speeding. He can arrest for anything else, but not speeding.
Did you notice that the officer gave the man a warning on the expired insurance card? Well, that is an arrestable offense, and a lot of officers would have snatched this guy.0 -
Listening to it the first time, I thought for a moment that the driver might be Teddy the Lush.. what with that NE accent and all. 0 -

No kidding. He's courting a stroke in that clip.
The first time I saw that, I just knew it would end up with the guy in cuffs. Like about the time he snatched the paper outta the cop's hands. Looked like assault to me. And that is why I could never be a cop. I couldn't have shown the patience the trooper showed.0 -
I can't watch videos at work, but is that the one that took place IIRC in Maine? If so the OFFICER was fired over it, as it was proven that before this scene took place he had provoked the gentleman and only stayed calm in this scene to make a point to his superiors (this wasn't his first incident). 0 -
Where is Bondai? Something is amiss here. 0 -
I had hundreds of those. It is just simpler to let the person rant than to force the issue. If I had arrested all of these that I came across I would not have lasted the twenty years. Just because they call you names, you just have to let that go. You have to look and read the person and see what you are dealing with. This is a working guy and the ticket will help him slow down for another 4 or 5 years.
The officers spiel is memorized, and he doesn't have to think about what he is saying, all his attention is on the driver and what he is saying, and more importantly what he is doing with his hands. When the driver goes on a rant, just listen and watch. Soon they will have vented all their frustration and the stop can run it's course.
Did you notice the driver said he couldn't read? If the officer had just let him sign and be on his way the courts could void the ticket, unless the officer explained the process to the driver.0 -
Great example of a well trained, seasoned officer. My wife has a masters in conflict resolution, says this is a text book case of perfect handling of an out of control person.
ps: I think everyone should quit needling Bondai, it doesn't help.[V]0 -
+1 tailgunner. The video camera wasn't even on during the first part of the stop. The officer was fired. 0 -
What worried me was the officer standing close to the speeding traffic. 0 -
I believe tailgunner is correct. This officer got fired over this incident.

One for the trooper here. He showed incredible restraint. The driver should be in a nut house, he has some serious issues. 0 -
Is there anything out there documenting the firing of that officer. I would like to see that if it is available. 0 -
I don't know what sort of video system that agency was using, but what we were using at that time was fairly primitive. Even so, the camera and mike turn on when the red lights come on, and have to be manually switched off. In those days, the video recorder was in the trunk, in a locked vault, and only supervisors had keys. The tape could not be rewound and played over unless the entire tape was magnetically erased. The system was virtually tamper-proof.
What we have now uses a DVD-style disk in a cartridge. Once a file is recorded, it can't be erased from the car. I can change disks, but only a supervisor can upload the files and render the disk re-usable. I still can't tamper with the system, unless I want to throw away an entire disk, and that might be hard to explain.
I would like to see some documentation that this officer was fired, and for what.0 -
Looks a lot like a Maine State Police uniform. The SUV driver even sounds like a Maineac. RJSnow 0 -
cop knows how to keep his cool[:D]
i lost count of F words used
by the way
you missed a piece[:D]0 -
The officer was not fired. I watched this one on Court Tv a couple nights ago and they interviewed the officer. 0 -
What could the officer possibly have been fired for? He acted properly the entire time.
I have had lots of people go off on me just like that. I would usually just call for another officer as back up in case it went south suddenly.
Cops in calif also have to put up with the name calling. The courts consider it part of the job.
I just smile at them which really sets them off when they see they are not "getting to you".0 -

I can't see the video at work, why don't you pull his name off of it, and google it?
IIRC he had had been warned multaple times about his attitude, and for inciting this kind of behaivier (normaly followed by a arrest). It was proven that he only acted as he did in this video to show his boss "how good he was behaving".0
