Regardless whether he was intoxicated, I hope we can all agree that tackling and handcuffing him was really excessive. Brad was calm, polite and seemed like he just wanted to explain his side of things. Zero justification for that kind of response.

They believed the wife and suspected he was armed and suicidal.

Nothing to do with the beer buzz.

Forget the beer. My only point is that he was calm and polite and and did nothing to justify being tackled and cuffed.

Yeah its not only super easy for a woman to manipulate the cops. The policy of cops is to agree with the woman in situations like this.

Pretty much. I don’t think anyone would disagree with police approaching the situation apprehensively, but you can’t go around football tackling people on nothing more than an accusation, or what the hell do we even have a 4th Amendment for?

Little short cop getting his fame in arresting a famous person.

Where was he hiding a gun? Up his rump? He doesn't have a shirt on. His hands are visible. That cop is a fucking asshole.

It’s the only reason he gets swooped up like that. They believed the wife and her story.

Not saying it was the right move, but that was their rationale.

Found the guy who didn’t watch the bodycam video.

You guys obviously have never been through the divorce courts in the U.S. or have been falsely accused of DV by your soon to be ex. It is brutal and you can quickly get ground into mincemeat in the machinations of the system. I got divorced in NJ in 2007 and Lost everything....house, 401k and kids. I never did drugs, drank excessively or had any trouble with law enforcement. Here it is 2020 and I still haven’t recovered. I agree the cops were excessive but that will not compare to how brutal family court judges and the minions who surround them can be. I have so many stories of how the family courts fuck over fathers. Family court is hell run by feminists.

I was recently talking to a friend who has witnessed tons of sexual harassment. She said only the false accusations get through HR because the women craft a careful smear/whisper campaign before they make a formal accusation. The real victims go straight to HR without gossiping and get smacked down. As a woman I can say with confidence that women can be some of the most vicious social manipulators alive

When the woman's word is evidence but the man's is not.

When domestic violence against men is met with a shrug but pushing a woman who is aggrivated and assaulting you is excessive.

When the default ruling is the woman gets the kids, plus half of the man up front, plus another third for kids despite the situation the woman is in... And the man has to go to great lengths to PROVE he wasn't abusive, to PROVE he is a good parent, to PROVE he can be a great provider, to PROVE he can house and clothe and feed the kids (after giving up 60% of his income).

When women view divorce as a windfall payday, cheered on by her divorced friends, and milk the man for decades despite being capable to provide, and able to latch onto another man to effectively make a 3 income household.

...justice is not blind, and not equally applied.

Exactly this. I was trying to say this in my post but you did a much much better job of it. The family courts are so abusive to mostly men. I haven’t had a meaningful relationship with my children in 8 years. All at the hands of the family courts. I hope NJ sinks into the sea!

Don’t want to rain on your parade just want guys to know you are entering into a legal contract. What they don’t tell you is the legal system is stacked against you if it doesn’t work out. Been there, done that!

Now you say it like that, it might have been a good thing that he was tackled. He needed to shut the fuck up and get a lawyer.

When I first saw the video I wondered if the cops tackled him to shut him up, thereby helping him. Some of the good ones will do shit like that.

Exactly. All they had to do is ask him to turn around and face the truck and put his hands behind his back. He could have got his head slammed on the pavement.
