Yeboi I always trip out first sight of the popo when I'm carrying a brick too!
Thats why op says if they had guns he could have just railed him, let God sort them out and all that.
I don't disagree with any of this. The problem her for me is that the police officer is clearly out of his depth. Let go, let the guy go and do him later.
that's actually quite funnySo the driver is completely at fault. Correct?
The police officer was just doing their job, be it in a slightly risky manner (for their own safety).
Being an internet tough guy is very different to real life pal.
I really can't see a problem with my comment. It's completely unbelievable how the police are trained to just expect people to comply these days. They comply less then they ever have done
You have no idea to be completely honest. I can't expect you to in the same way that I have no idea about you personally. All we have is our words in our forum posts, nothing more. It's ok to have a different opinion yea?
90% of it. There is a small amount of naivety on the officers behalf.
I have a Bobby in the family. I wouldn't look down on him for asking for help in a potentially life changing situation. These are normal people on 30k a year, not seal team six or green berets where the role is considered a vocation not a job.
there's no defending him!Don't play it down. The fear in the guys voice needs him to reconsider his life choice of career.
I'm not saying that they need to be marine material but you are the front line agaisnt criminals that's are very likely to do this kind of thing without a worry in the world

It depends in what circumstances you get stopped. If you get stopped after driving a vehicle then yes, you have to do or say something.
You need to provide your driving licence or your name/dob so a licence check can be done.
In these circumstances he could be required to do a 'drugs wipe' and failure to do so would end in his arrest.
you think they train fear for your life out of you in the few weeks before you get your warrant card?Watch it again. The guy drive forward for 10m max and then reversed for a bit, drive forward again for 10m and then ran. Fear for your life!? Come on, that's a little rich
Maybe your title in the police if you had the bottle to join would be Captain Hindsight?

Leon would have dealt with the perpetrator quite differently.
Being able to size up a situation like this and the level of risk/danger and/or how to mitigate it is somewhat an acquired skill/experience. I suspect the vast majority of people will react more towards panic than otherwise the first time they encounter this kind of thing.
At first he was probably still in the mindset of whether the guy would back up and try and run him over so wanted space to work in.
By being a pedophile?
