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.
Marine > "US Soldier"
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.
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.
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.
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
Yeah but it was quite humorous.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."
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.
