There a couple of things going on there with the police. Especially that last one walking out. First, a cop absolutely cannot stand having their authority challenged. They knew they were wrong but it still causes a malfunction in their brains when some lowly civilian has the nerve to call them out on it. So what do they do?
Act petty like some spoiled children pretending they're the ones in control.
Second, that last one was especially trying to find a reason to go after this guy. Just waiting for so much as a hand to touch his shoulder so he could have some bs excuse to take this guy down. The arrogance in his gait made his intentions extremely obvious.
You read the situation and their thought processes perfectly. I picked up on exactly the same thing, especially the last to leave cop, he was constantly weighting up how he could start beating on the Pastor. If there was no camera on them, that Pastor would be in jail right now.
I used to be a "back the blue" retard, seeing how they have acted during this pandemic shows how they are thugs for the state and nothing more.
I was always pro cop until recent years and always believed if someone got arrested they must be guilty. Then I got called for jury duty and watched a week-long trial in which a young black guy was being prosecuted for "aggravated assault on a police officer." He was facing 20 years in prison for supposedly biting a cop who was arresting him.
Being a white conservative lawyer, I was sure I would be struck from the jury pool. But one after another, people got disqualified for bias. I ended up being the 12th juror selected. Nine jurors were white and three were black.
The case began falling apart the minute the testimony started coming in. Cop after cop got on the stand and lied. They couldn't keep their stories straight. The prosecution's "star" witness couldn't even get the "victim's" name right:
Q: What happened next?
A: Officer Martinez identified himself and told the defendant to lie down.
Q: What happened next?
A: Officer Ramirez repeated the order but the defendant disobeyed.
Q: Then what?
A: Officer Gonzalez then tackled the defendant.
Q: What happened next?
A: That's when the defendant bit officer Sanchez on the arm.
It was a joke. Then the public defender called the doctor who treated the officer. The doctor had no memory of the incident, saying he treats thousands of people in the ER. The defense showed the doctor a photo of the "bite mark" and asked if the photo showed a bite wound. The doctor said, "No, that looks like a burn." And it was! So obvious. Other independent witnesses confirmed that none of what the prosecution claimed was actually true.
We went back to the jury room and I was elected foreperson. I asked for a show of hands if anyone thought the defendant was guilty. Five people raised their hands. I had everyone around the table speak their mind. "He just seems guilty." "I believe the cops." I went last and rattled off a dozen instances in which the cops obviously lied, and said I thought the only crime committed was the prosecution's audacity to bring such an obviously bullshit case. We then took an official vote and all twelve voted to acquit.
This past year has affirmed everything I learned in that case about how cops really are.
Compared to what I've seen first hand when we confront them, it was a pretty good admission by the cops that they knew they were on the wrong side.
We've seen them not do that here in California, and it's been close to getting ugly.
