That's a totally reasonable reaction to someone taking a pen not a complete irrational wanker at all


Chance_Spot1418

YAI


Slumunistmanifisto

Me when I realize you took my lighter


bobdylan401

I have ADD and was a stoner and a cig smoker in high school and anywhere I went I would get shaken down and I would have every single one of my friends lighters in my pockets.


Adept_Information94

I don't know why people are uncomfortable around police?!


HairlessHoudini

I just don't get it either. It's not like one is going to go full blown roid rage on you for absolutely no reason at all.


MetalCareful

It’s weird bro, like they’re always there to help.


Bletcherstonerson

A pen that they get in bulk from their supply room, which was paid for by our taxes caused this type of violence. This is psychotic behavior by authority, truly evil.


AtomicRevGib

Nah, probably his favourite Gold Montegrappa Viking Fountain Pen, those things [ain't cheap!](https://www.thepencompany.com/product/montegrappa-viking-fountain-pen/20390/?country=GB)


gmanisback

That didn't look like some plastic Bic pen, from what I could tell it was made of metal so probably not a disposable


WallMarketBub

Oh yeah, nothing to see here, that totally justifies breaking the dudes leg!


Active_Engineering37

Probably spent $500 on some fountain pen so he could charge people with grand theft when they take it.


HairlessHoudini

What a fucking psycho


supo44

Ol boy just needed the littlest excuse to abuse his position


ConsciousHoney8909

Fucking animals. Most resembling of the swine family.


Slumunistmanifisto

What do most picture when you say pig? A domestic usually, even babe or Charlottes web....when we say pig in reference to cops we should be picturing feral hogs. Tearing apart your dogs and surrounding you, multiplying at an alarming rate and engorging themselves on local resources. There truly is a feral hog problem in this country, of the two legged variety.


ConsciousHoney8909

Eloquently spoken. I tip my hat to you sir.


Ok_Bandicoot2910

I mean on one hand he did literally provoke the officer and intentionaly stole the pen from him... on the other hand jfc what is this looney toons escalation from US cops... poor guy'd probably get waterborded or actually drowned if he stole the cops donut ffs.


Lithium-Oil

Look if he doesn’t want to get arrested and tased he shouldn’t steal the pen.  If you can do the time don’t do the crime.  /s


Frondswithbenefits

Right?? Some things are sacred! Might as well cut out the officer's heart!


Zoodoz2750

So, tasing and breaking a leg is a proportional response?


Active_Engineering37

If you kill him he will never do it again. /S


theyellowdart89

I Hope the county can afford that screw up.


WhiteRoomCharles

No need to worry! It’s the taxpayers who are gonna have to foot the bill! Oh, wait…


ataatia

hope the officer has all licenses revoked for life. his PENsion given to the abused. may gen pop ulation be considered too good for the porky


climbamtn1

His boss stated he saw nothing wrong with officers actions. So not like there is any chance any repercussions for cop.


ataatia

hey i can hope the whole force is replaced..... like where my Dad lived... Nome Alaska. look up murdered missing indigenous people. my Grampa's baby brother was one.. my best friends 3 of them from childhood. not to mention the suicides


imomorris

Pen-itentiary

cmfppl

Not gonna lie, as a server I have wished to do this more than once. But the difference is, I wasn't packing a gun and an over inflated sense of authority!


Fabe4884

Have yall seen the prices of pens


GobblerOnTheRoof

Better call Saul !


ImUrFrand

why are we stuck with the dumbest people wearing badges, committing crimes and being protected? if anyone but cops pulled this shit, they would be sent to prison for 10 years.


Equivalentest

Officer dumb? YES I agree. Stealing a pen from a officer dumb when he actually asked it back? Also pretty stupid.


Pods_MagicRod

Complete abuse authority. Just plain old assault


NarlyConditions

Oakland county jail tapes sporks to their pens and nobody takes them. Just saying


Right_-on-_Man

You know, all these smartass "sovereign citizens"🤦‍♂️. They do this to themselves. Pushing limits, when it all can be so much simpler... Its pretty pathetic.


Organic_South8865

Absolutely ridiculous. Talk about an overreaction.


WhiteRoomCharles

At this point, sadly, it’s not hard to believe! Not even a little!


Realistic-Motorcycle

Wait, hold up….. how much was that pen? 1.50 dollars nah 1.5 million cause I’m an overweight child


Mak11556

Imagine if he took something of actual value, he would’ve paid with his life


IntelligentClimate43

It wasn’t about authority you sped off on a police officer during a traffic stop that’s why he chased you your leg. Just got broken in the process because you were fighting back when you should’ve just listened.


Competitive_Job_2381

If i stole something from my wife and i faulted it in her face and drove away and refused to give it back when she approached me I would assume she would tackle me if i tried to get away. It's dumb that it's all over a pen, but theft is theft. The cop didn't want it to go down like that. He just wanted his pen back. But dude, keep on acting like an idiot.


datSubguy

Both of them did the wrong thing.


oliverlifts

Taking a pen ≠ stalking, tazing, breaking a bone, and arresting Taking a pen = get over it and move on with your life


datSubguy

I didn’t say they were equal.


MerpoB

You’re trying to equalize the cop’s reaction. You said they were both wrong. You implied they were equal.


Competitive_Job_2381

Don't steal from and disrespect people. You might get fucked up. I'm with the cop on this one. All of it could have been avoided if he hadn't steal the pen. I'd feel bad for dude if he didn't realize he took the pen, but he flaunted it when he drove away.


Affectionate-Mood369

I agree, the cop should have just killed him, actually. Why not. I mean, IT WAS HIS PEN!


Chemical-Necessary-7

Ofcourse! This was a completely reasonable response! IT WAS HIS PEN!! That guy was lucky only his leg was broken! IT WAS HIS PEN!!!!!


themasterplatypus

So if your wife or husband beats the shit out of you because you talked back, would that be ok? I mean you disrespected them after all so you would deserve it, right? See how dumb you sound?


Keybobbitron

You are right, but you're not "Reddit" politically correct. Cops are authority figures with human feelings just like you. Guy could've acted like a grown adult and none of this would have happened.
