This was dumb. Those 2 cops were fucking idiots. How do you not know that temp plates get taped to the back window? Every cop should know this. Every person who has ever had temporary tags knows this. How did these guys ever pass training?
I don't think so, doesn't matter how unlikely you think a military person would be a crook, when they are a crook... Then they are very, very dangerous and way better trained than the cops.
Well actually traffic stops are second only to domestic calls as the most dangerous for cops, not saying what they did was right, but dude traffic stops are VERY dangerous for cops. Look up some stats or talk to a cop and he will tell you the same thing EDIT: Just so I am clear, fuck cops, they have burned through every ounce of respect I had for them this last year, and that took a lot being a former cop. Death to tyrants
I get what you're saying, but I would think that the reason traffic stops and domestic calls are the most dangerous for cops would be statistics.... This is where cops interact with citizens the most, so this is where they could possible get hurt by a citizen.... I've not seen cops approach a vehicle that pulled over and stopped with guns drawn.... if this dude had led them on a 5 minute car chase then I would say that they have a better reason to draw their weapons.
I once got told that my car matched the description of the car of a shooting suspect was driving when i was around that age. Young males of any physical description get pulled over more often. I got out of the car when they asked. You're better off fighting in court than fighting with officers during a traffic stop.
I don't know what these cops think he did, but the older cop is out of line. But the Army guy is also being dumb by not doing what they say, like turning the car off. He waited forever to turn the car off but should have done it right away to deescalate.
How would you turn off the car, or unbuckle your seat belt, while keeping your hands out the window? These officers were intentionally issuing contradictory orders in rapid succession to create an atmosphere of confusion.
The driver shares any blame in this. He thought he would be cute, and not pull over for a mile, after the original cop tried pulling him over. He later claimed that he decided he should pull over somewhere that had more lighting, instead of right away. If you don't pull over for a mile, I'm sorry, but the cops are going to think something is up.
There is now zero incentive, for any black person being pulled over by cops, to comply with officers. That's no way to make millions.
I once did not pull over right away but contued a ways to a shoulder so both cars would be off the highway proper. During the stop the trooper asked why I has continued to travel. I pointed out the safety issue. He nodded.
Well, even if you are in the right, when you start disobeying cops with guns drawn on you, you are an idiot. Obey now, and then fight them later to get the $$$ if they were idiots. You can't reason with anyone when they are this pumped to get you to comply, the only thing you can do is make it worse by not doing what they ask.
I have no love for cops, but wtf should they done to a noncompliant subject who refused to stop or get out of the vehicle? They must kiss his ass because he is in fatigues?

There's a maximum IQ limit. And it's not very high.
Guns drawn on a traffic stop... yeah, these two idiots are super fired...
Yea and the driver was in full military uniform. Cops like this are why people hate cops.

So you were car thief in your younger days, eh? Oh well, not everyone has an illustrious past.
If police ever do this to anyone in my family, I will come for them. This how untouchables behave.

Turn off the car, which the cops can see by the lights going out, then put your hands out the window. Rocket science, no?

Guy has a dash cam, cops had body cams, gas station has cams. Stupidity from all angles.
Punk pussy cops
You must comply. Local mayor controled cops.
tl; dw - nothing happened
