Cops vs. Skaters Options

[FORSAKENR320]

the city bike cop was on a power trip. does skateboarding warrant being arrested for it? no. could he have yelled and ran them off like most any other security officer would do? yes. if its at that point that the teens cursed at him it comes with the territory. if you think everyone who curses at a cop is arrested youre retarded.
anyone know whats happened so far? penalties against the police officer?

i see exactly who the police arrest. i can also vouch that it IS the minorities that cause all the crime... at least in lubbock anyway. young white guys and black females are usually the ones who get arrested for "disorderly conduct directed at a public servant" meaning their bitch asses didn't cooperate, and just argued the entire time and provoked the situation. any activity that provokes the situation is reason for an officer to take action against you. i've maced an old black lady just because she was stirring up a mob at Static

wow. just wow.
police officers need to realize that there are other ways to resolve a situation other than violence, mace, tazers, guns drawn, etc.
speaking to a person like they're a human being with rights doesn't seem too far fetched.

this situation didn't even seem like it was something that needed resolving in the first place.

by the way the uncut versions can be found by clicking the guys username. there are 2 more. nothing any different though.

uh brandon i dont get why you included your story. that just makes you look like a bad person/civil servant
cops are supposed to be good at their jobs. they have to do this so they dont have to run around killing/maiming everyone they come into contact with. there comes a point pretty fast in that video when the cop is the one stirring trouble and the kids react to it. of course they do they are children. cop shouldnt have done it

You have the hard numbers to back that up, David Duke?


I've seen my fair share of all "races" stir up criminal shit.

my story was just randomly tossed out there. but the point of it was that you don't necessarily have to be doing anything wrong to get arrested. provoking a situtation to the point the police officer can't handle it IS reason enough to be arrested. i'm quite sure that the cop works a specific route. probably has ALOT of back history with those little asshats, and i'm VERY sure that they have taken it into their heads it's "cool" to mess with authority. i'm sure they have been told they are not allowed to skate in that area COUNTLESS times. those kids were clearly uncooperative. they tried to run. they were making a large scene. it's a potential riot risk (not that i truelly think one would have occured, but they already had the cop appearing to be the bad guy at the end, and other people were starting to interfere.)

working security at mall lots and stuff like that, i've had to deal with alot of asshat skaters. and every one of them thought they were showing off by being belligerant to people with badges. my general policy was to confiscate skateboards. some i would break in front of them, some i kept. (i never claimed to be clean) but when words and warnings fail, maybe losing a skateboaurd and having to buy one every week will be incentive enough to stay the fuck away from where you aren't supposed to be. and it actually worked.

As a skater, it bothers me when we get a bad name because of moronic kids who pay no attention to laws. Was the cop excessive? Sure. But the kids were more than likely knowingly breaking the law. There are tons of "No Skateboarding" signs posted where skating isn't allowed.

I've skated one pool recently with the permission of my friend's parents. They were getting it retiled so it didn't matter if I fucked anything up. I would never sneak into an empty pool and skate it. Also, I don't skate where there are a lot of people and there are signs posted. Plenty of other places to skate legally. Kids skating downtown where there are a bunch of stip shops and people walking around is quite reckless

it was citywide skateboarding day

[blaarg]

the story made drudge...
I didn't think this was THAT big of a deal.

[Testm0nkey]

its not that big of a deal considering this type of stuff goes on everyday. plenty of police officers will be excessive, plenty abuse their rights against women and minorities. that is nearly just fact in some places. (though not saying all police officers everywhere or that it cant be changing)

the cop should have run them off so when they ran off they would be leaving. goal accomplished without choking two young kids

[False Dude]

It was actually national Go Skate day. The correct solution to the problem would've been for the kids to truck slap the officer into a coma.

yeah because that keeps people from doing shit. how about we all follow the honor system!





cops and people in the military put up with as much shit as everybody else. they're normal people, and some people have short fuses. those kids deserved it. bet they'll think twice next time.

[False Dude]

cops have to pick their battles. he was making the situation worse and they would have just left if he had told them to some did. its when he started grabbing people that they were like wtf. if you skate everyday or even somewhat often you know what to expect and you expect to get ran off by policemen.

that cop was feeding the situation. he could have let them run off laughing whatever they were leaving. better than him making the situation so crazy he has to shoot a 15yr old girl

they come back. run them off, they think it's funny and a rush. they come back again. and again. and again.

first off, cops have to enforce the laws no matter the odds. they may retreat while in danger, but there is no compromise to upholding the law. that's part of their code of ethic. they can't just "pick their battles"

2nd, i'm sure this is the 2nd or 3rd time he's chased off those kids that day. why the fuck else do you think one of the kids was convieniantly taping it? they knew it was going to happen, because they had done it before. yes cathryn... run them off so they think it's a game and come back, just to get more bold and push it further and further.




and on another post you made earlier about the excessive violence on minorities. fuck them. those people need to be beaten more. the more dumb shit i see these people doing while working, the more i actually think white people should truelly be the master race.
