Because he's done fuck all
He also did give the police his ID and continues to get hassle of that one guy.

Probably saw he was black, and thought dodgy! I can see why he's stood his ground but soon as a gun is pulled in America, by a cop I'd put my pride right away. Boy's sober too.

I think the point is more why the fuck is a policeman pulling a gun out on a guy tidying his garden, rather than how the guy should've acted. Other police clearly ken the police guy is being a twat since they turn up and tell him to give his ID back and move on. I'm not one of these people who hate the police or think it's sound to act wide when they're doing their job, but their job is to uphold the law, not get wide and hassle random people going about their business. I'm sure it does happen here but just something i've never ever experienced. Probs helps that i'm not black too.
Always had dreams of moving out to the states as thought it looked class but fuck that now

Yeah but he is making a point; he's picking litter in the garden of his house ffs. Morph is right, whether he gave the ID or not is irrelevant and close to blaming the guy when the reality is the only person at fault here is the cop.

Nobody is really at fault tho (based on what we've seen). Neither wanted to back down. But cop is guilty of being a cunt; not really a surprise that you get them in that line of work.

You can't say that the cop is guilty of being a cunt, while simultaneously saying he's not at fault in that scenario.

Pondlife, you've definitely been radicalised online recently.

It's a massive cultural difference between us and pondlife. He's lived and used guns his whole life and we've no so he probably doesn't think it's as bad as we do.
Saying that i find it very hard to understand you think the police have done nothing wrong when all the guy is doing is his gardening pondy. There is no need at all for the police to even be speaking to him but I think that's probably another thing we'll disagree on.

Very good people Cunts on both sides

Sorry, been away. Not sure what's difficult to understand about my posts. Cop wants to know who he is - ID tells him who he is but not that he's resident there. Shit gets out of hand coz two guys wont back down. One has a gun one has a garbage picker. Just swallow your pride and don't get shot, man.
Did cop need to bother him even if he was sitting on his patio looking menacing above a No Trespassing sign? From the video, I doubt it but then I wasn't there. Point is just keep cool and comply, even if you're in the right. It's just generally not worth the hassle. What message is that video going to send to a cross-section of viewers? To most it will just reinforce what a significant number of us already believe, that policing can be a difficult job, that police (like us all) have implicit biases, but it may also embolden those naive enough to believe that your rights on the street allow you to be steadfast in the face of authority without consequence. Radicalised! I'm just a shite foil for the propaganda that gets posted on here.

You should be able to exercise your rights without facing consequence. Why would emboldening that be a bad thing? Heaven forbid people should have rights and those rights be respected. Moroever, to do as you say and meekly do whatever the police say despite not being obliged to only emboldens, and let's not mince words, racist police.
