The problem is your definition of 'provoke a fight.' If you think physical altercations are a direct, unavoidale result of angry words, then I'd have to point the finger at you for wanting to be a 'tough guy' rather than those who you're blaming.

Don't be silly. All I said was that talking crap sometimes leads to a fight. Right or wrong, this is a fact.

Don't go talking crap to the cops you call to help you. If you do, and one slaps you down for it, don't go expecting me to be outraged and call for the cop to be fired, jailed or "gut shot and bled slowly."
 
usually the people who do the whole "but im army" routine are privates or privates who were discharged or didnt make it through basic or who are outright lying.
 
Cop was way out of line. Anyone here of excessive force? He had no right to do that. Slap him to the grond like that and pin him to the ground with his knee on his chest? Are you fucking serious? I'd sue his ass off!

Yep. I'd be willing to bet he'd end up with the same or similar response from any hot-headed Marine who had a guy flaunting military service up in his face like that. The officer stepped forwards, and the other guy stepped right up into him and we had two massive egos collide.
 
Cops like this deserve to get gut shot and bled out slow.

i have a tough time judging this one.

on one hand, the victim sounds like a whiny bitch. on the other hand, the officer could have handled that properly.

Is that like 2 brains or branes? Ah? Ah? Have you heard of M-Theory? It gets better, God's brain thinks this is all a joke, because it is! Am I right?

What do I win?
A trip to the looney bin?

How did I know you would think that?
 
You're a tool, do you deserve the same as the guy in the video? At the hands of the police? When you are seeking their help?

Holy shit people are stupid

You can't really think I'm a tool. Come ooooooooooooon!

And I wouldn't be in that situation to begin with. 'Friends' kicking my ass and kicking me out of place. Squaring up to a cop? Pfft.

Holy shit people are always so ready to defend anyone going against law enforcement...

...that's not to say that the cop was out of line. That kid was a complete POS.

What the fvck?

How on EARTH are you guys defending the cop? While I have no sympathy for the little douche kid, the damn cop stepped up and CLOCKED him first.

Cops are on their job to act professionally. He's acting like a two-bit thug.

Yeah but it was quite humorous.
"You're talking to a soldier."
bam
"You're talking to a Marine."
let the mewling begin.

Yes it was funny for a split second, but I was disturbed by the cop's mindset and the accepted culture of American police. The soldier's succumbing fed the stupid pig's ego ten fold. And for him to also throw the title 'Imma Marines too bro" was equally cringe worthy. It's like two monkeys in a pissing contest.

I'm sure what the cop did goes everything against what US Marines stand for.

I was awakened when my German exchange friend said to me, "Why is everyone in US scared of their cops? Cops aren't like that in Germany. They truly want to help you."

This pig rolled up like he's some next door punk doing this poser a favor, not a cop.

All true.

I think a lot of it has to do with the mentality and false sense of entitlement of this generation's military personnel (some, not all).
 
1) That idiot was begging to get bitch slapped.

2) Any reasonable, intelligent cop could have defused that situation pretty easily and that cop went out of his way to exacerbate things.

They both deserve some discipline.


This.. I'm all for showing cops respect for what they do.

This cop needs his ass fired he's the type of cop that will give the others a bad name because he most certainly did abuse his power. Sure the soldier was being a little smart ass (his is the victim and frustrated, even a dumbass cop like this should understand that).

The victim didn't make any threatening moves simply squared up AFTER the cop for no reason got in his face. You're a cop you'e not supposed to be the damn instigator and in this case was exactly that.

Ok well maybe not fired, but his ass most certainly needs some more training.

Like I said I'm all for showing cops respect, but that doesn't mean turning a blind eye to stupid shit like this cop. Cops like soldiers are held to a higher standard. That means having some damn discipline which both of these fools are seriously lacking.
 
maybe that cop killer will take out this cop. those people in CA though deserve cops like that.
 
Both of them were in the wrong but that cop had no right to slap him like that and then pin him down with his knee. The officer needs to face charges for what he did.
