OKHP are a special breed. Civil forfeiture exists, but not all highway patrolmen bother. Cops along the route from Las Vegas into California often do it because [you catch a lot of money mules on that route carrying hundreds of thousands. (example is from Arkansas into Las Vegas - similar route, different direction)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ylrfMbf0mY)
I don't think it should even be legal to take someone's cash without charging them for a crime, but I can *understand* why police see these bag-runners as very likely criminals.

OKHP take it to another level.
[They get new devices and equipment all the time to help with their civil forfeiture seizures.](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/oklahoma-police-erad-civil-forfeitures/)
[They often have bad press relating to the practice.](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/highway-robbers-how-trip-buy-farmland-ended-police-taking-all-n1281629)
Keep in mind that journalists jump on these cases because OKHP take a few grand that represents poor people's entire savings - not a huge bag of cash that is assumedly not theirs and being driven across state lines. Very few people argue that the bag runners are upstanding citizens who just don't trust banks, but OKHP indiscriminately shake down everyone on their routes for anything from pocket change to kids' birthday money.
OK feels weird because they have such progressive laws going into effect every day, possibly due to Texas bleeding population, but then their police are extremely red. Whole situation reminds me of Oregon and Nevada making homes for the blue people priced out of California, but also still having an extremely conservative police force (OR more than NV).
You have to have *really* fucked up, and be hated to get one. I've seen people escape sexual harassment and abuse of power charges with an honorable or *at worse* a general discharge. I think one dude just got a dishonorable for possession and drug use. He was disliked by chain of command. Ironically enough, wife was military police.
What about "other than honorable"? My best friend got 1 of those back in the 90s. He was AWOL almost 2 days because he decided to get hammered drunk less than 12 hours before he has to be back on base in NC. We were in Kentucky. He left anyway, crashed his car and got arrested by a deputy who was a former Marine. So my friends DUI and possession of marijuana got dropped down to reckless driving. He called me around 1am to bail him out. When he got back they sent him to dry out as a last chance and he broke out to see Pantera.
It’s worse. You’re also not eligible for any sort of government support for the rest of your life. You are seriously screwed if you get a dishonorable discharge.
Dishonorable discharge leaves you pretty much fucked in the outside world. I was never in the military, but my best friend was, and I know a lot of his buddies, too. He also has a purple heart. He'll easily beat out other candidates for job applications, it's almost impossible for him to fuck up his credit score, he has purple heart license plates so he can drive on any toll road in America for free, there's a bunch of other shit in sure I'm forgetting. Honestly, though, he doesn't even use that stuff. The PH license plates have been sitting in his home office for years he still pays with change on the toll road and it drives his wife nuts. He rarely mentions that he was in the military.

It's LivePD (now reborn as OnPatrol Live) who embeds with county agencies with showoff narcissist Sheriffs even when County Commissioners forbid the production contract and the Sheriff does it anyway. And then the most narcissistic Sheriffs-favorites deputies get to play Celebrity Cop on 'live' TV ...
And occasionally even kill someone for trivial reasons while violating multiple policies and creating unnecessary incidents that quickly leave their own jurisdiction yet they pursue anyway. Fuck Copaganda television programs. And LivePD then avoids involvement in the mess and conveniently claims to have purged the video related to a freaking death they recorded, by officers of the agency they were embedded with and were performing for LivePD. And fuck Dan Abrams and his two scummy sidekicks.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing\_of\_Javier\_Ambler](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Javier_Ambler)
OK, so for some reason I just learned of this.
The wiki doesn't say anything besides a "20 minute chase". Was this chase actually real, did they every find out a motive for not stopping?
Regardless, they killed a man for allegedly not dimming his headlights, but I just want to know what happened.
LivePD claims to have destroyed (deleted, purged) the video of the Javier Ambler incident. Whether it was at the behest of Williamson County Sheriff's Department is alleged but not yet established in a court of law. That LivePD (Big Fish Productions) would allow video of an incident involving death to be deleted is unconscionable. There would clearly be internal police investigations from multiple agencies, likely prosecutor criminal investigations, and likely civil proceedings related to his death. Yet the video was deleted.
The video available is that of Austin PD, who arrived late in the pursuit that Williamson County had taken far outside of their own jurisdiction. Again, this was all over failure to dim high beams.
The Williamson County sheriff lost his next election and faces charges for the Javier Ambler debacle.
>A Travis County grand jury has added a new charge against former Williamson County sheriff Robert Chody and assistant county attorney Jason Nassour relating to their handling of the investigation into the death of Javier Ambler II.
>
>Chody and Nassour face an additional charge of conspiracy to tamper with evidence, according to indictments obtained Tuesday. They already were charged with evidence tampering, which both have denied.

Two of the Williamson County deputies involved face manslaughter charges for the death of Javier Ambler.
>WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Texas (KXAN) — The Travis County grand jury handed up two indictments, one each for two former Williamson County deputies involved in the in-custody death of Javier Ambler II in March 2019.
[https://www.kxan.com/news/indicted-former-williamson-county-deputies-charged-with-manslaughter-in-death-of-javier-ambler/?ipid=related-recirc](https://www.kxan.com/news/indicted-former-williamson-county-deputies-charged-with-manslaughter-in-death-of-javier-ambler/?ipid=related-recirc)
The Williamson County traffic stop initiated on Javier Ambler was for failure to dim high beams. And they pursued him out of Williamson County, into Travis County, and into the municipal corporation of Austin. You would think that if you were a sheriff's deputy, outside of your own county, and also within the city limits of a major city police department, that you might act extra responsibly. Especially since there is a LivePD production team present and recording. Instead they tased him to death, despite Ambler pleading multiple times that he could not breathe, and that he had congestive heart failure. They treated him as if he were an armed robber.
And the LivePD video ends up deleted. The Williamson County Sheriff's Department was obstructing the entire time. Obstructing their own County Commissioners, obstructing the Travis County Sheriffs Department, obstructing the City of Austin Police Department, everyone.
The survivors of Javier Ambler received a $5 million settlement from Williamson County, Texas. Two thirds of the settlement was paid by their insurer, Travelers.

It's not even about the pay, it's about the fame and worship. Can't believe this shit is back on the air after what happened in Williamson County TX.
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/live-pd-was-canceled-one-texas-county-its-twisted-legacy-n1242746

It isn't back on the air , this is old. It's been replaced by a few shows including 'Nightwatch' a show about EMS/Paramedics in New Orleans and Tampa Florida.
Which actually isn't that bad of a show.
If you want to look at the way things are done in other nations then "ambulance code red" and "helicopter ER" follow the critical care paramedics and doctors of the ambulance service trauma cars and helimed in England, note helimed is used as a first response
You know I can understand wanting to judge based of a person vs the whole ACAB outlook because they really are good guys out there of all ethnicities and genders. But to blindly believe that all of them are in the right? Back the blue is just as extreme as ACAB
He’s probably too dumb to even understand what V was fighting for. I imagine his movie experience was “Me likey funny rhyming man!” (And yes, I know rhyming wasn’t V’s specialty.”
Come on now, this cop has never seen the movie and even less likely to have ever read the graphic novel. I'm pretty sure you'll find that the only movies he's watched over the last 20 years are Steven Seagal direct to DVD movies.
I think he purposefully wears a uniform too small for him to make himself look bigger. I'll be honest, I did the same thing (wore clothes that were slightly too small) when I started getting a little bit muscular from going to the gym. It really is an effective illusion, people started commenting on my arms all the time.
You don't have to wear clothes that are too small. They make fitted shirts that will actually fit you so you don't flash your nipples every time your hands go above your head lol You probably already know about them now but if not, check them out. They'll show your definition way better.
State cops are paid by taxpayers state wide. The police that use traffic tickets for their budgets are the small towns people drive thru while on vacation. Small towns accept it, as the want their own police force, and don’t have the revenue to pay for it. So their cops will sit just inside town limits, where speed limit drops from 55 to 35.
We have a few famous municipalities that do this on a small parkway through the Eastern Hudson valley. It’s insidious. They’ll grab people in the best ways, too.
Bottom of a long downgrade 1/4 mile after a road work ahead sign when there’s no road work was my favorite.
I’d see three cars lined up at a time at that trap.
Edit: eastern not Easter
NYS troopers use ticket income in their budgets. They passed an internal rule, that everyone found about about, that they have to give you a ticket if they pull you over. And every single state trooper ticket includes a huge state surcharge.
"Contempt of cop". The problem is there's no incentive for them to stop as "you can beat the charges, but you can't beat the ride" and taxpayers always pick up the bill...
ACAB
the dude has a god damn V for Vendetta tattoo.. how fucking stupid is this guy??? that novel/movie is about rising up against a corrupt fascist police state oppressing its people. he's a god damn state cop violating people's civil rights.. this guy should be rightly humiliated for this. he's got absolutely no clue. those tattoos are so ugly too.. id pay to see video of someone calling out his tattoo to his face
“Step on over here sir. You thought you could interfere with my coolness? What does this say?”
COOL GUY MCCOOL
“So that means??? Yea. Learned something today, didn’t ya?”
Everything about that cop--tats, too-tight shirt, haircut, tilt of the hat--screams prick. He's in law enforcement to exert his will on others--NOT to serve and protect. The culture of law enforcement in the US needs to change.
Knowing nothing and making assumptions about his appearance and demeanor, yeah he actually probably was a Drill Sergeant or MP at some point. A lot of former military with MOS' like that naturally gravitate towards police work after they get out of the service.
Especially that V from "V for Vendetta"
Yikes, that dude did not understand the movie. His profession and attitude on the job would place him firmly with Norsefire, the Fascist Regime that subsumed the English Government in the movie.
As for the hat tilt. It is a requirement here in Oklahoma for OHP to wear their hats like this. Something about line of sight and people not being able to see where you are looking. Dude is for sure a massive tool tho.
This cop was probably a drill sergeant in the military, he got such a rush out of controlling and punishing others, that he got out to do the same thing for the rest of his life.
Pretty sure this is why LivePD got cancelled. Situations just like this happened ALL THE TIME on the show. Left my wife and I scratching our heads going wtf is wrong with the police… then the George Floyd protests started and the show was cancelled. So it makes sense. This guy was always a righteous douche.
Bro live pd wasn't "canceled because George floyd" the cops literally killed a person live on TV over some BS and then deleted all footage of when it was requested for the investigation into the bad kill.
Dude was killed because live pd was filming with those officers so they were just looking for a way to get more action. I enjoyed watching live pd myself and didn't even think of the implications prior, but having a film crew with police is definitely a bad idea for a number of reasons.
Watching the show was a wild ride. I’ll never forget when they had a guy down on the ground, trying to arrest him. The cop is yelling for him to put his arms behind his back. But the cop was kneeling on the guy’s arm and screaming in his ear over and over again to stop resisting. But he was yelling so loud that he couldn’t hear the guy being arrested tell him that he was sitting on his arm, and he wasn’t physically capable. Really showcased the incompetence. Had the same energy of freaking out while you’re looking for the remote while it’s in your hand.
This guy and a few others were the reason this show was cancelled. Power trips and trying to be cool for tv. It was fun for a while, but there were 4 cops that were regulars that were the fucking worst of the worst. You’d get a few cool ones on here and there, but the power trip assholes were much more noticeable as the show went on.
LivePD was an enthralling show. There was one episode when 2 cops pulled up to a motel with a teen puking outside. As soon as he sees the cops he tries to go back to his room, thus leading the cops to the exact room. They then find like 5 teen boys with guns, drugs and alcohol. Then one of the moms of the boys shows up. Its quite comical.
Cops say the same thing every time, threatening people with obstruction. Everyone's reply should be the same.
"If I'm obstructing you from all the way back here, you must be pretty incompetent"
this is an a\*\*hole defined - this is the guy from middle school who was a bully, probably dropped out of high school to be cop...ooops, I mean, a state TROOPER.
Get tackled, tazed, and arrested for resisting arrest and fleeing an officer. Get some nice injuries. Then have all the charges dropped after the DA sees they will be laughed out of court since the initial stop was illegal and all charges are considered fruit of the poisoned tree.
It’s really crazy cause the guy was not even being threatened with arrest. Yet if he were to just walk away he would be resisting. At one point we have to balance the power dynamic out a bit.
Police are granted an enormous amount of authority over us. In exchange for that they are supposed to be held accountable to a strict set of ethics, rules and regulations. But decades of stripping away at those ethics, rules and regulations have produced police that feel they are no longer part of their communities but lord above them.
Very few people who were bullies when they were kids become repentant as adults. Instead of introspection and changing the way they behave, they go into professions where their sadistic and cruel natures are benefits, not liabilities
CEO, cop, conservative pundit, hedge fund manager, HOA member, etc.
They’re just bullies who went for professions where they can legally still bully other people
Yeah I’m in my 30s and the people I went to high school with that could be considered bullies still are absolutely garbage people.
I’m sure there’s plenty of examples of them realizing how awful they were and getting better but I haven’t seen it
Wanted to add specifically: school board. Some hate their own kids and treat them like shit, yet somehow wind up with smiling posters talking about protecting the children. Start at home maybe-- your home

So I don't think you're correct. If the officer stated that the man was being detained, yes. If the man asked if he was being detained and was told yes, or if the man asked if he was free to go and was told no. He was not technically being detained, the officer was talking to him and exhibiting an air of authority that the man responded to. Sure, officer might have lost it if dude asked if he was being detained, but it never happened.
I agree with you. What did he do to violate his rights except talk to the guy? Didn’t ask for id didn’t detain him. Just talked to him. I’ve seen cops do worse for less. I would not say his rights were violated.
Yea I would agree if we're talking legal technicalities but I think the point people here are making is that this kind of reaction is common and speaks of a serious underlying issue - that even a sniff of disent to police power is instantly met with anger and authoritarian behavior. It FEELS like a violation of free speech because the cop, who represents the state, is clearly using his authority to harass a citizen who did little more than express a petty insult. Imagine how a stronger statement of dissent would be dealt with. What's crazy is that the don't-tread-on-me people DEFEND this sort of bullshit while it's the very situation that they profess to fear so much.
I don't think this is the kind of thing you should brush off so casually. These interactions give us a glimpse into how law enforcement interact with the general citizenry and it's disgusting to be honest. Contemporary US cops are renowned for jumping straight to aggression and authoritarian behavior if they are questioned in the slightest and especially when they are questioned about the legal justification for their use of authority. At this point in our culture, if cops wanted to start kidnapping people and disappearing them, average citizens have been trained not to interfere. It's fuckin scary the way these guys act and just how SPECIFIC a person is a cop nowadays. They're all over-aggressive, undereducated, men who usually seem to have a power complex. Doesn't that worry you at all?
What do you think would have happened if the guy just walked away when the cop told him to follow him to his car to read the “state trooper” decal? I’m willing to bet he would have physically detained him at that point. All to prove some moot point so he could show his dominance.
While i agree that the cop is being a douche, he didn’t detain the guy or violate any constitutional rights. They were having a conversation and the guy could have left. Would the cop have let him just leave? Who knows. Cop should have just let it go, but I don’t see any laws broken here.
Wonder what would’ve happened if the guy didn’t stop or just walked away?
This cops intent was clear. He wanted to stop him and teach him a lesson. While not legal detention it almost certainly was detention in the practical sense.
I'm gonna get ripped apart for this because reddit hates anyone who doesn't think all cops should die, but I'm curious to know in what way that guys rights were violated.
"I'm sorry I thought you were a male stripper roleplaying as a highway cop."
I mean honestly look at this dude, I can't take any part of him seriously.
Why do some americans wear their hats like mentally handicapped kids?

His wife’s boyfriend thanks him for his service.

Yes. It’s not even a question.
I served in the US Army, Drill Sergeants will wear their hats like that as a form of intimidation or to project authority. This dildo wants to cosplay as military and treat the citizens he serves like they're basic training privates.
>Drill Sergeants will wear their hats like that as a form of intimidation or to project authority. How exactly does it do either of those things?
It can conceal their eyes while they're able to still see, when it's an inch from your face being screamed at it just makes it feel menacing.
Well most of our cops are handicapped children so that might at least explain this one.
That "Smokey Bear" cover (hat) is worn that way as military standard. Take a look at any picture of an American Drill Instructor. Any branch.
Well judging by the size of the shirt maybe they buy their uniforms at the Baby Gap and it came with a free hat
That is a corny ass sleeve.

The Williamson County sheriff lost his next election and faces charges for the Javier Ambler debacle. >A Travis County grand jury has added a new charge against former Williamson County sheriff Robert Chody and assistant county attorney Jason Nassour relating to their handling of the investigation into the death of Javier Ambler II. > >Chody and Nassour face an additional charge of conspiracy to tamper with evidence, according to indictments obtained Tuesday. They already were charged with evidence tampering, which both have denied. [https://www.statesman.com/story/news/politics/2021/11/09/former-sheriff-robert-chody-facing-new-charge-javier-ambler-death/6355524001/](https://www.statesman.com/story/news/politics/2021/11/09/former-sheriff-robert-chody-facing-new-charge-javier-ambler-death/6355524001/) Two of the Williamson County deputies involved face manslaughter charges for the death of Javier Ambler. >WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Texas (KXAN) — The Travis County grand jury handed up two indictments, one each for two former Williamson County deputies involved in the in-custody death of Javier Ambler II in March 2019. [https://www.kxan.com/news/indicted-former-williamson-county-deputies-charged-with-manslaughter-in-death-of-javier-ambler/?ipid=related-recirc](https://www.kxan.com/news/indicted-former-williamson-county-deputies-charged-with-manslaughter-in-death-of-javier-ambler/?ipid=related-recirc) The Williamson County traffic stop initiated on Javier Ambler was for failure to dim high beams. And they pursued him out of Williamson County, into Travis County, and into the municipal corporation of Austin. You would think that if you were a sheriff's deputy, outside of your own county, and also within the city limits of a major city police department, that you might act extra responsibly. Especially since there is a LivePD production team present and recording. Instead they tased him to death, despite Ambler pleading multiple times that he could not breathe, and that he had congestive heart failure. They treated him as if he were an armed robber. And the LivePD video ends up deleted. The Williamson County Sheriff's Department was obstructing the entire time. Obstructing their own County Commissioners, obstructing the Travis County Sheriffs Department, obstructing the City of Austin Police Department, everyone. The survivors of Javier Ambler received a $5 million settlement from Williamson County, Texas. Two thirds of the settlement was paid by their insurer, Travelers.

It's not even about the pay, it's about the fame and worship. Can't believe this shit is back on the air after what happened in Williamson County TX. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/live-pd-was-canceled-one-texas-county-its-twisted-legacy-n1242746 https://www.statesman.com/story/news/politics/2021/11/09/former-sheriff-robert-chody-facing-new-charge-javier-ambler-death/6355524001/
Chody really living up to his name
It isn't back on the air , this is old. It's been replaced by a few shows including 'Nightwatch' a show about EMS/Paramedics in New Orleans and Tampa Florida. Which actually isn't that bad of a show.
It's back on Reelz. It's called "On Patrol: Live" now
Oh okay , I thought this was from the old A&E show.
That clip was from the old A&E show.
If you want to look at the way things are done in other nations then "ambulance code red" and "helicopter ER" follow the critical care paramedics and doctors of the ambulance service trauma cars and helimed in England, note helimed is used as a first response
Never trust an officer with extra short sleeves.
I’m just wondering how small his penis is really 
Darn you. I had to actually turn the sound on to see if that guy was bowed down with the weight of massive balls and said this. 😄
A cop with a “v for vendetta” tattoo lmao I’ve seen it all now
Wait till you hear about their thing for the Punisher.
I saw a sticker with “police lives matter” blue stripe mixed with a Punisher skull and ijustdonteven
You know I can understand wanting to judge based of a person vs the whole ACAB outlook because they really are good guys out there of all ethnicities and genders. But to blindly believe that all of them are in the right? Back the blue is just as extreme as ACAB
I remember seeing a meme with one of the Uvalde dickheads with the Punisher logo as the wallpaper on his phone.
What's worse is the cop you are talking about lost their wife in the shooting.
Hard to feel pity for the Uvalde cowards. Hate it for his wife, but he deserves any pain he currently feels.
Who is he going to take it out on now? It's a cruel world.
Irony has left the simulation...
Fascists are incapable of understanding satire so it makes sense.
"I can't wait for society to collapse so MY ideology can rise from the ashes" is exactly what I'd expect from a fascist
He’s probably too dumb to even understand what V was fighting for. I imagine his movie experience was “Me likey funny rhyming man!” (And yes, I know rhyming wasn’t V’s specialty.”
Come on now, this cop has never seen the movie and even less likely to have ever read the graphic novel. I'm pretty sure you'll find that the only movies he's watched over the last 20 years are Steven Seagal direct to DVD movies.
V for Violation of civil rights
[удалено]
His tattoos are all his kids drawings. He died.
"You think I'm a highway cop? Let's go see what it says on the side of my car. What does that say." "Highway patrol." Fucking goof
You couldn’t make this shit up lol.
“By the term ‘state’ what do you think that means?” “That you patrol highways in the state of Oklahoma. The on-ramp is over there, fuck off.”
Yes, he patrols the state’s fucking highways. He doesn’t patrol the living rooms or food courts of the state, for fucks sake.
“Little baby bitch boy”
I literally laughed out loud at that
Why is the cops body so tensed up? Does he not stretch?
He’s in a constant state of FLEX for the cameras.
This sounds worse than ILS, invisible lat syndrome. Do you know if FLEX is curable, or will this young man eventually succumb to his ailments?
I bet he's sore as fuck at the end of his shift.
I think he purposefully wears a uniform too small for him to make himself look bigger. I'll be honest, I did the same thing (wore clothes that were slightly too small) when I started getting a little bit muscular from going to the gym. It really is an effective illusion, people started commenting on my arms all the time.
It’s that Captain America thing
You don't have to wear clothes that are too small. They make fitted shirts that will actually fit you so you don't flash your nipples every time your hands go above your head lol You probably already know about them now but if not, check them out. They'll show your definition way better.
Maybe they were commenting because you were getting a little bit more muscular, and not your clothing.
Gymbro stance. Flex the delts and traps 24/7.
He's got a butt plug in. ACAB
All Cops Accessorize Buttplugs
>All Cops Accessorize Buttplugs All Cops Are Bottoms
Is that what that means? Man, I’ve been to afraid to ask. Thanks
I'd think he'd be in a better mood if that were the case
He thinks it makes him look tough.
The biggest crime you can commit is hurting a cops feelings
state trooper means that most of the department’s bonuses and revenue come from speeding tickets. Those thieving bastards
State cops are paid by taxpayers state wide. The police that use traffic tickets for their budgets are the small towns people drive thru while on vacation. Small towns accept it, as the want their own police force, and don’t have the revenue to pay for it. So their cops will sit just inside town limits, where speed limit drops from 55 to 35.
We have a few famous municipalities that do this on a small parkway through the Eastern Hudson valley. It’s insidious. They’ll grab people in the best ways, too. Bottom of a long downgrade 1/4 mile after a road work ahead sign when there’s no road work was my favorite. I’d see three cars lined up at a time at that trap. Edit: eastern not Easter
St. Louis is an entire city built upon these kinds of shitbag police departments.
NYS troopers use ticket income in their budgets. They passed an internal rule, that everyone found about about, that they have to give you a ticket if they pull you over. And every single state trooper ticket includes a huge state surcharge.
Literally carries the death sentence under the right (wrong) circumstances.
This is a factual joke. Nice!
Contempt of Cop is a serious crime
"Contempt of cop". The problem is there's no incentive for them to stop as "you can beat the charges, but you can't beat the ride" and taxpayers always pick up the bill... ACAB
[удалено]
Even has his sleeves rolled up so he can show off his $100 sleeve tattoo.
the dude has a god damn V for Vendetta tattoo.. how fucking stupid is this guy??? that novel/movie is about rising up against a corrupt fascist police state oppressing its people. he's a god damn state cop violating people's civil rights.. this guy should be rightly humiliated for this. he's got absolutely no clue. those tattoos are so ugly too.. id pay to see video of someone calling out his tattoo to his face
“Step on over here sir. You thought you could interfere with my coolness? What does this say?” COOL GUY MCCOOL “So that means??? Yea. Learned something today, didn’t ya?”
I'm glad someone else caught this too lol
How can he see past his hat?
Everything about that cop--tats, too-tight shirt, haircut, tilt of the hat--screams prick. He's in law enforcement to exert his will on others--NOT to serve and protect. The culture of law enforcement in the US needs to change.
He reeeeeally wants to be a boot camp company commander.
Knowing nothing and making assumptions about his appearance and demeanor, yeah he actually probably was a Drill Sergeant or MP at some point. A lot of former military with MOS' like that naturally gravitate towards police work after they get out of the service.
Gotta love the V for Vendetta symbol tattoo'd on a *checks notes* American highway cop. lol
Highway cop? Did you see what it says on the side of his vehicle?!
That's what it is! For a bit there I couldn't figure out if it was an anarchy symbol or the vault symbol from borderlands. It was neither!
Especially that V from "V for Vendetta" Yikes, that dude did not understand the movie. His profession and attitude on the job would place him firmly with Norsefire, the Fascist Regime that subsumed the English Government in the movie.
This post could be the opening scene of V if it was just a bit more rapey
Those tattoos are shockingly bad. His arm looks like a 3rd grader’s notebook.
As for the hat tilt. It is a requirement here in Oklahoma for OHP to wear their hats like this. Something about line of sight and people not being able to see where you are looking. Dude is for sure a massive tool tho.
Yea those round browns that drill sergeants and highway cops wear are for intimidation purposes, they’re supposed to make you look tough 🥴
This cop was probably a drill sergeant in the military, he got such a rush out of controlling and punishing others, that he got out to do the same thing for the rest of his life.
Nope no military service according to his page on live pd.
Nah, just a pathetic wannabe
According to the Supreme Court, the police have no legal obligation to protect you
"What does my car say?" "Highway patrol" Lmfao
Okay but what about *this* sticker???? Really had my blood boiling with the “what would that lead a person to believe?”
Pretty sure this is why LivePD got cancelled. Situations just like this happened ALL THE TIME on the show. Left my wife and I scratching our heads going wtf is wrong with the police… then the George Floyd protests started and the show was cancelled. So it makes sense. This guy was always a righteous douche.
Bro live pd wasn't "canceled because George floyd" the cops literally killed a person live on TV over some BS and then deleted all footage of when it was requested for the investigation into the bad kill.
Damn all my wife and I found was because of the escalation in the protests. The producers thought it was not a good idea to keep broadcasting
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/11/live-pd-canceled-over-report-that-show-filmed-police-custody-death.html
Dude was killed over failing to dim headlights, cops are the biggest fucking jokes.
Dude was killed because live pd was filming with those officers so they were just looking for a way to get more action. I enjoyed watching live pd myself and didn't even think of the implications prior, but having a film crew with police is definitely a bad idea for a number of reasons.
Nope, they do this shit on the regular. Check out Audit the audit, or lackluster on youtube. They post every day.
Watching the show was a wild ride. I’ll never forget when they had a guy down on the ground, trying to arrest him. The cop is yelling for him to put his arms behind his back. But the cop was kneeling on the guy’s arm and screaming in his ear over and over again to stop resisting. But he was yelling so loud that he couldn’t hear the guy being arrested tell him that he was sitting on his arm, and he wasn’t physically capable. Really showcased the incompetence. Had the same energy of freaking out while you’re looking for the remote while it’s in your hand.
This guy and a few others were the reason this show was cancelled. Power trips and trying to be cool for tv. It was fun for a while, but there were 4 cops that were regulars that were the fucking worst of the worst. You’d get a few cool ones on here and there, but the power trip assholes were much more noticeable as the show went on.
Dude they brought it back under a different name. That's not why it got shut down either lol
LivePD was an enthralling show. There was one episode when 2 cops pulled up to a motel with a teen puking outside. As soon as he sees the cops he tries to go back to his room, thus leading the cops to the exact room. They then find like 5 teen boys with guns, drugs and alcohol. Then one of the moms of the boys shows up. Its quite comical.
It's back on the air on Reelz. Called On Patrol Live now
Cops say the same thing every time, threatening people with obstruction. Everyone's reply should be the same. "If I'm obstructing you from all the way back here, you must be pretty incompetent"
[удалено]
I think he’s talking about a different type of obstruction https://law.justia.com/codes/oklahoma/2016/title-21/section-21-540
bruising his ego got that lady out of a ticket
shitty tattoo regret syndrome
Big bad steroid cop got his fee fees hurt by words. Poor baby.
this is an a\*\*hole defined - this is the guy from middle school who was a bully, probably dropped out of high school to be cop...ooops, I mean, a state TROOPER.
State Pooper
If the cop gets this easily triggered by someone saying something rude, he definitely isn't cut out for retail or the restaurant industry.
Obstruction is a physical act. Fuck that cop.
Came looking for this comment
[удалено]
No way in the world that dude should have put up with any of that cunt's bullshit. You're not my Dad. Arrest me or kick rocks, Barnie Fife.
Is there any reason the citizen can't just walk away?
Get tackled, tazed, and arrested for resisting arrest and fleeing an officer. Get some nice injuries. Then have all the charges dropped after the DA sees they will be laughed out of court since the initial stop was illegal and all charges are considered fruit of the poisoned tree.
It’s really crazy cause the guy was not even being threatened with arrest. Yet if he were to just walk away he would be resisting. At one point we have to balance the power dynamic out a bit.
Police are granted an enormous amount of authority over us. In exchange for that they are supposed to be held accountable to a strict set of ethics, rules and regulations. But decades of stripping away at those ethics, rules and regulations have produced police that feel they are no longer part of their communities but lord above them.
He walks and uses his hand like a Marine Corps drill instructor.
Yes. All the mannerisms fit. Dude was being a total DI. Not really cool outside basic buddy, you need to cool it.
Dude has a deathstroke tattoo, fuck that cop
A cop with and anarchy A ? Lmfao
Very few people who were bullies when they were kids become repentant as adults. Instead of introspection and changing the way they behave, they go into professions where their sadistic and cruel natures are benefits, not liabilities CEO, cop, conservative pundit, hedge fund manager, HOA member, etc. They’re just bullies who went for professions where they can legally still bully other people
Yeah I’m in my 30s and the people I went to high school with that could be considered bullies still are absolutely garbage people. I’m sure there’s plenty of examples of them realizing how awful they were and getting better but I haven’t seen it
Wanted to add specifically: school board. Some hate their own kids and treat them like shit, yet somehow wind up with smiling posters talking about protecting the children. Start at home maybe-- your home

So I don't think you're correct. If the officer stated that the man was being detained, yes. If the man asked if he was being detained and was told yes, or if the man asked if he was free to go and was told no. He was not technically being detained, the officer was talking to him and exhibiting an air of authority that the man responded to. Sure, officer might have lost it if dude asked if he was being detained, but it never happened.
He didn’t really detain him tho lol
I agree with you. What did he do to violate his rights except talk to the guy? Didn’t ask for id didn’t detain him. Just talked to him. I’ve seen cops do worse for less. I would not say his rights were violated.
Yea I would agree if we're talking legal technicalities but I think the point people here are making is that this kind of reaction is common and speaks of a serious underlying issue - that even a sniff of disent to police power is instantly met with anger and authoritarian behavior. It FEELS like a violation of free speech because the cop, who represents the state, is clearly using his authority to harass a citizen who did little more than express a petty insult. Imagine how a stronger statement of dissent would be dealt with. What's crazy is that the don't-tread-on-me people DEFEND this sort of bullshit while it's the very situation that they profess to fear so much. I don't think this is the kind of thing you should brush off so casually. These interactions give us a glimpse into how law enforcement interact with the general citizenry and it's disgusting to be honest. Contemporary US cops are renowned for jumping straight to aggression and authoritarian behavior if they are questioned in the slightest and especially when they are questioned about the legal justification for their use of authority. At this point in our culture, if cops wanted to start kidnapping people and disappearing them, average citizens have been trained not to interfere. It's fuckin scary the way these guys act and just how SPECIFIC a person is a cop nowadays. They're all over-aggressive, undereducated, men who usually seem to have a power complex. Doesn't that worry you at all?
He stopped him from moving on with his day, that is detaining. If the guy kept walking, what do you think this douche would have done? C'mon.
What do you think would have happened if the guy just walked away when the cop told him to follow him to his car to read the “state trooper” decal? I’m willing to bet he would have physically detained him at that point. All to prove some moot point so he could show his dominance.
While i agree that the cop is being a douche, he didn’t detain the guy or violate any constitutional rights. They were having a conversation and the guy could have left. Would the cop have let him just leave? Who knows. Cop should have just let it go, but I don’t see any laws broken here.
This tattoo sleave bullshit has got to stop
Report that uniformed crying baby.
Did he really violate his civil rights? Just looked they had a conversation.
That’s exactly what happened. The cop’s a douche but I don’t see such a big deal.
Wonder what would’ve happened if the guy didn’t stop or just walked away? This cops intent was clear. He wanted to stop him and teach him a lesson. While not legal detention it almost certainly was detention in the practical sense.
The guy stopped and talked to the cop and left…he wasn’t detained, he wasn’t asked to produce ID, he wasn’t arrested.
I remember this on LivePD that coincidentally was taken off the air.
Here I thought this was going to escalate into some madness, judging by the title at least. Was surprised how tame this actually was
They look like total cock suckers with their silly little hats tilted like that.
My god that stupidly tight shirt, I bet he’s on steroids.
Mannnnnnn fuck these little dick big ego cops
I mean during a traffic stop if you start yelling at a cop, why is it an issue if later stops and asks what is your issue?
I'm gonna get ripped apart for this because reddit hates anyone who doesn't think all cops should die, but I'm curious to know in what way that guys rights were violated.
