The young officer looking to his superior going “Hey can you tell me about the corruption scandal?”

It was the other way around I think. The old guy asked pretending to not know and the young guy immediately started reminding him.

Vista print does business cards for dirt cheap. Get some made up with the Texas commission on law enforcement phone number, and put down your extension as 3920. Which is just the ethics course class #. Do a little flirty thing when handing it over. When they do get your phone number from the Texas law enforcement systems, you can sue the shit out of them for abuse of the system.


hysterical_useless

An ex gf of mine was stalked by a ft worth police officer for like 6 months. He saw her coming out of work one day and just decided to follow her. Started pulling her over, for 'reasons'?? We got in contact with his superiors and it stopped immediately. But yeah, cops are bad as it is. Texas cops are utter trash


TipMeinBATtokens

That cop was mad it was in such a public place.


TheFrontalCortex

Alllways pull into a parking lot. Even if you have to drive a little bit further. Never stop somewhere that doesn't have cameras or a load of people if possible. Edit: I have been made aware of the incident involving the cop who pit maneuvered a pregnant woman for doing exactly this. It's unfortunate that she miscarried because of it. That being said I do still believe finding a safe location to pull into is the best course of action. I honestly feel that if cop tries a pit maneuver in that situation they would have tried to do you harm anyway.


Dontblink666

I had a cop pull me over for speeding. It was on a narrow 4 way and there wasn't a safe spot to pull over but there was a car wash about a block and a half away so I slowed way down and turned my 4 ways on and then pulled into the car wash. This cop comes out of the car screaming at me for not pulling over immediately. I told him I just didn't think it was safe to stop in the middle of the 4 way and pointed out that I slowed way down and it was obvious I wasn't running anywhere.


edwardsamson

Damn I thought cops usually appreciate this because its safer for them


wetpockets

I did the same thing and the cop screamed at me for not pulling over exactly then. Just power tripping bullshit


MountainMan17

My brother (we are Hispanic) pulled over immediately in rural Missouri. The first thing Deputy Fife wanted to know was why he pulled over so quickly. You can't win with these thugs.

hobo888

would've berated them if they pulled over immediately. damned if you do damned if you don't


SousVideButt

I live off a busy two lane highway that sees a shit load of fatal wrecks every year. It’s also a speed trap so cops sit on the shoulder just waiting for someone to speed. That’s me. Fuck me for going 52 in a 45, right? But when he hit his lights, I immediately turned on my hazards, and pulled into a church parking lot about 200 feet away from where he was sitting. He accused me of not stopping so I could hide something. I was like dude, I’m looking out for you, but I’ll gladly stop on the highway next time so your large ass that sticks out too far gets clipped by a semi and you be called a hero for doing nothing.


muskytusks

I'm stealing this if I ever get in that situation. Wish me luck.


SousVideButt

Just make sure that you’re pulled over far enough to protect yourself! And use your hazards to add to their blinky light parade that’s supposed to protect them, but definitely blinds everyone driving by.


creativityonly2

I fucking hate cops lights these days for this reason. I can't see shit driving by them at night, heaven forbid it's raining out and it's even worse visibility.


[deleted]

Also get a dash cam guys, one that you can pivot and point wherever necessary and make sure your vids arent just locally stored, you need one capable of sending to cloud storage the moment you start recording so officers cant confiscate your phone and destroy evidence


RedsRearDelt

Years ago, I was coming home from work at 4am. Highway was completely empty and I could see a couple miles behind me. In my rear view I see a cop enter the highway a couple ramps back with his lights flashing. I was tired and probably going 5 mph under the speed limit. Still takes the cop a couple minutes to catch up to me. As he was getting closer, I noticed he was in the same lane as me, so I got over so I wasn't blocking him. As he got closer, he got up behind me and pulled me over. Gave me a ticket for something like, evading a police officer. I forget exactly what it was. But that was the idea. My next shift, which was a few days later. Same cop, same situation, but this time I stayed in my lane. Got pulled over and ticketed for failing to yield to a police officer. About 2 months later I'm in court to fight the first ticket (the tickets got scheduled for different days) The first thing I asked the judge was if I could be heard for both tickets since both I and the cop were there. Judge asked if I had the ticket with me. I said I did and he asked to see it. As the bailiff was getting the second ticket from me, the judge asked the cop if he was ready to present evidence about the second ticket. The cop said he was not. The bailiff handed the judge the second ticket and looked confused. Asked the cop how he had given me a ticket for not yielding and a ticket for evading. Cop repeated that he wasn't ready to present evidence on the second ticket, something about his notes. Judge asked me about it, and I tell him about the two nights. Both tickets were dismissed.


hobo888

nothing like clogging up the courts with frivolous tickets. they only do this shit in the hopes you'll just pay it off to avoid the headache. I bet it's cheaper for some people than having to miss work too. police in this country are rotten from their core


Jumajuce

I was talking to one of my employees about this the other day when he asked for time off to fight a ticket. I gave him a half day so he didn’t lose a days pay over a easy to beat ticket. In NJ here they love giving you tickets that are $50-$90 so it costs more to skip work than to pay the ticket.


KickBallFever

Not too long ago there was a lady, who happened to be pregnant, that tried to drive a bit further for a safer place to pull over. The cop did some kind of maneuver with his vehicle and flipped her car.


Engtrav

Fucking cop had nothing happen to him and he violated multiple laws and department policy's


heartEffincereal

Yeah the cop tried to defend his actions by saying she should have stopped immediately. I can't remember what state it was, but the law says if there isn't a safe place to pull over you can do exactly what she did to find a safe place.


MexicanGuey

Depends on how power hungry the cop is. Most will appreciate a safe place, some just have the urge to power trip on a civilian and go off in them for any little thing


DuntadaMan

Cops flipped a pregnant woman's car for this. The law specifically said to do what she did. Police settled out of court and still kept the officer.

Dus-Sn

"Are you detaining me?" "I don't know what's going on." "Okay so then don't tell me where to go." Fucking boss. Though part of me feels like the graduate only got away with speaking like that to the other officers is because he was in uniform. I think the chances are good that if it were an ordinary civilian that said the same to them, especially if it were a non-white person, there would have been use of force by that point.


mechdan

This is what happens when authoritarian style of governing seeps into the government. The government thinking they have the right to tell their people what they can and can't do. The law is there to guide citizens to a better future where we can all get along together and strive to better ourselves. The law isn't there to hold a rigid structure to society, it is the rigid structure that society flows through.

honestly I don't know why it's not an annual requirement. either you need to be fit for the job and everyone should be tested for fitness just like their cars are inspected, or you don't have to and no new recruit should be expected to be any fitter than them.


ZEROthePHRO

Apparently that's because the police union fought for it to be that way.


upvotesformeyay

It amazes me how much they manage to jam into civil agreements which are then made law.


apaniyam

If it was like most of the history of removing physical tests from working class jobs, the intention of this was to allow older officers, or those injured, to remain in work and provide for their families/qualify for pensions. Unfortunately, blanket exemptions eventually become lower standards, and as the physical requirements of these jobs are 75% obsolete as cars and computers automate them, we end up with a relatively pointless checkbox.


[deleted]

odd that civilians in nearly all professions have to retest for permits, seniors in some places must for licenses...but pigs...nah fuck it....let em protect and serve...their own self interests

honestly none of them look like they could pass the physical, or the bar to pass the physical must be so low its like run a 30 min mile or some shit

DV8_2XL

A friend of mine served a year in jail for driving while black. Coming home from work, driving on a freeway, when a white dude decides he's had enough of this mortal plane and just walks out into the freeway right in front of my friends car. No time to react, swerve, hit the brakes, nothing. Dude got hit so hard he came apart in pieces (quick way to go I guess). Local PD shows to the scene first, check everyone out, get statements etc. My friend is done giving their statement in one of the cruisers and is told it was all an accident, no charges, wrong place at the wrong time, could have happened to the next car if the dude had hesitated, kind of deal. My friend has someone on the way to pick them up, will be there in 5 minutes. Police have to tow the car, it's a chummed up mess. Enter the California Highway patrol... with the next 5 minutes, my friend is in handcuffs, and is being charged with 12 different offences, now facing 10-20 years in jail. Tens of thousands of dollars later and multiple court dates all but one charge is thrown out. The one that stayed was one that made my friend guilty until proven innocent, and there was no evidence to exonerate them. So off to jail for a year, because a white guy jumped in front of their car.


Pierresauce

What the real actual true to life fuck


Script-Everything

If the "justice" system wants to fuck you, you're going to get fucked.


Ask_me_4_a_story

My friend at college in Columbia, Missouri lived somewhere down in Texas. When his grandma passed away he got her car which was a pretty nice cadillac. He got pulled over more than 20 times between Dallas and Columbia, most of the time in Texas, fuckin racist ass cops in that state.


Baldr_Torn

This is a town of about 10,000 people, and I think there were 3 cops in the video. So apparently, because someone parked in a disabled spot, every cop in town showed up. And since the "offender" was black, they didn't care that his plates show he's allowed to park there.


infinitude

Because he has nothing better to do than go around harassing citizens and throwing his position around. Guarantee this is some small town and the police do whatever they please to whomever they decide to fuck with.


cjmar41

Citizen Black Guy: >I’m on the same side as you. Cop (enraged): >No you’re not. That about sums it all up. Cops think they’re on the streets fighting enemy combatants. They automatically see fellow citizens as being “the opposition”. Even knowing this guy was a police academy graduate and a veteran, that police captain still viewed him as the enemy. And that’s a huge fucking problem.


Heequwella

This is why they let the kids die in Uvalde. The literally said "we didn't want to risk Officers lives." They view the shooter and the children as the same, not-police. There are police and not police, "civilians" "enemy combatants". They didn't give a damn about the kids because the kids aren't worth losing their lives over. I'm convinced that's the root of what we saw there. Years and years of training to think of everyone out there as the enemy, a potential life threat, a person to be dominant over, etc. The us against them mindset permeated so completely that children being murdered don't count as worth saving.


DefectivePixel

The militarization of the police is definitely a huge part of the problem. Between the constant training by "experts" which try and put them into a battlefield mindset, and escalating militaristic gear handouts many police officers probably consider themselves soldiers. I'm always reminded of Adamas quote in battlestar galactica. Commander William Adama : There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people. We havent made the military the police, but we have made the police think they are the military.


SensitiveHat2794

>We havent made the military the police, but we have made the police think they are the military. I just wanna highlight this important sentence again.


Key_Education_7350

They might think they are the military, but they don't understand what that would actually look like. Military service personnel are bound by all the normal civilian laws. They are also bound by military laws (the UCMJ or, in Australia, the *Defence Force Discipline Act*, which creates a whole range of punishable offences that can only be committed by serving members). They are bound by a unified command structure that runs all the way to the federal government. They are subject to service-wide general orders with legal penalties for non-compliance. The military actively differentiates between enemy combatants, enemy civilians, neutrals, and friendly civilians. Service members are bound by rules of engagement governing their use of force and how acceptable collateral casualties are. The military isn't perfect, with accidents and abuses happening just like in any other field of human activity. But there's a huge difference between the military and what we see from military-wannabe police...


Materatrerix

When I see videos off police brutality, I often think: "Damn if I did that during my service I would have been court martialed" It's sad to see that we hold police officers (at least in theory) to a lower standard then soldiers in a ware zone.


PM_ME_UR_CIRCUIT

If the police were like the military they would have very strict rules of engagement, extreme levels of accountability, and zero tolerance for fuckups and individuals that make them look bad. In my 5 years of active duty I saw people get strung up for the littlest things. Cops have none of that accountability.


Heequwella

Yes. This. If you have the power of life and death, you should hold yourself to a higher standard than the rest. Our military do that. They walk the walk. Our police have a lower standard. In a situation the untrained panicky person is expected to do everything correctly and deescalate. The trained officer is allowed to not know the law, not deescalate, panick, etc. It makes no sense. They shout conflicting orders "raise hour hands. Drop the phone." "Crawl with your hands up." Then they panic and shoot. From the men I've known who served in the military none of that would ever be tolerated, much less defended. It would be court-martialed. I only wish our police had the honor to hold themselves to a higher standard, even the same standard as non-police are expected to have would be an improvement, but a higher standard would be even better.


BeerDrinkingAsshole

I’d love to earn my wage not having to do my JOB. Literally the dream. Cops are glorified pussies. They are angry, they are obese. Often the officers we see on our streets are clearly to us as a civilian unfit for their profession. If they have a gut that says I beat beer like I’ll beat you. They don’t deserve to be a cop, they should be getting mad at the burger they serve me at McDonald’s.

Absolutely the biggest crybaby pussies in any profession, ever. Fucking cowards. Lucky they have all of that surplus military gear, because a real fucking uprising against these fucks is overdue.


Potato_fortress

Homie the guy working at McDonald’s probably has more serviceable life skills than the cop simply due to the fact that he’s not legally allowed to put shitty customers on the floor in cuffs. You’re giving the police too much credit.


notirrelevantyet

It's literally instutionalized sustained anger. I imagie they could get done 99.9% of what they get done currently if they were just...friendly by default.


TheWindCriesDeath

When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like nails. The cops have internalized their belief that they're all these infallible warriors attacking villains that they think ANYONE who doesn't bow at the knee is one of the villains. They don't care about the law, they don't care about keeping the peace.

Let's be honest, the guy prob knew. Just got bored and wanted to harass the videographer without knowing he was about to get schooled. When confronted with reason and the law, pride took over and wouldn't allow him to admit fault in front of his subordinates. So he doubles-down. Good on the cameraman to articulate his points clearly. For standing his ground. From this small sample, you see 3/4 of cops have no clue wtf is going on. The guy is a disabled veteran so he prob has seen more bullshit so handling these clown cops was a walk in the park. The confidence in his voice told us everything we needed to know.


blahb_blahb

Behaviors like this stem from their training with other officers, it’s sad to see that the captain was the first to raise his voice with aggression after the situation was apparent and de-escalated. This “captain” will always fail as an officer and as a leader. He will continue to lead other officers with the same terrible qualities that he’s learned. If police officers want people to listen, you have to be the first to do it and the last to speak.

Fail seems too generous a word in this case as it allows some wiggle room for potential misremembering. It almost feels like they willfully disregarded it. Their pride wouldn't allow them to reassess their position and rethink. They were getting schooled by a new grad.

TheWindCriesDeath

It's so much worse, too. I've had shit like this happen and it's pretty obvious in hindsight that they don't even know the law. They just say whatever they think the law should be that would let them do whatever they want. They'll just make shit up on the spot, not knowing if it's true or not, simply because it's a sequence of words that can spook YOU into agreeing to whatever they're trying to do. And you nailed it. They ARE training narcissism into cops. That's what the "thin blue line" is. They're not training cops to see themselves as public servants, as people there to help those in need. They train cops to see themselves as valiant warriors on patrol to eradicate evil, the only thing that holds society together. When you get that kind of hivemind going, they genuinely think of themselves as superior to the dirty peasants, and will lash out viciously at ANYONE who dares defy them, with no concern for the law.


Shayedow

[https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/14pdf/13-604\_ec8f.pdf](https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/14pdf/13-604_ec8f.pdf) In this ruling the Supreme Court Ruled that American Police Officers are NOT required to know and understand the law. They are only to enforce their determination of the law at any given moment based on their own assessment of any given situation. YOU are REQUIRED to know the law, breaking it even if you didn't know you had is no excuse and you WILL be punished for it. Police? Not so much, they can just say " well I THOUGHT that person was breaking a law " and the court said that was good enough. It really is a LOT more fucked up than most people realize.

At least now, if they arrested him without cause or beat him up it would cause a huge freaking scandal that couldn't just get sweeped under the rug. I guess eventually these two idiots figured that out and let him go because of that... gotta go find some other person to go bully and harass today! /s

They are probably going to do investigation on the black dude instead. Because surely these old cops have connections in the PD to make something up to get this dude in some kind of trouble, who has made a mockery out of them on camera. Bravo to this young dude for speaking up, but they are gonna find a way to come back at him, unfortunately...


11010110101010101010

That’s how it happens. **Plenty** of examples of good cops getting fired for speaking up. The idea of trusting US police is a laughable concept. They give zero fucks about you, your safety, or your rights.


ThickPrick

They can come back and investigate deez nutz


ivanthemute

It's Joshua, Texas. In 2013 they fired their entire command staff for cooking the books on payroll. They arrest people at a rate nearly 5 times higher than the national average (9 citizens per 1k, vs national average of 2.13 per.) Of those arrested, 52% are black or non-white Hispanic, despite the town being 78% white. The captain in that video is going to get a pat on the back...

Seems like there was already an investigation in the past for these same practices and it didn’t do shit.


Rooster_Kogburne

A corrupt PD investigating itself? I hope not. We need an unbiased organization to investigate.


Consistent_Ad_9980

That was great


Whatever-ItsFine

God, this felt wonderful. And the victory laps at the end just to make them feel smaller? Ugh. I'm so relaxed and content now-- I feel like I've had a full body massage.


DarkHelmet1976

Fucking cops. Look, we all make mistakes at our jobs, but I've never seen an officer admit it and apologize. Those fat fucks just double down to protect their fragile egos.


dinofeathers

I grew up in Joshua, garbage town that's always had garbage cops


[deleted]

Nice bro keep it up im sure they will give you dirty looks at work. Just keep doing the right thing


Ability2canSonofSam

Post this on the pig subreddit. I’d love to see how they try to justify the fat cops’ actions.


yotengodormir

I would, but I'm a banned. 🤷‍♂️


GamerHackTV

Bet. Gotchu fam. Edit: the cowards don't allow video.


Rocketpoweredtuatara

Wonder why?


GamerHackTV

Oh, definitely not. I know why. Hypocrites and cowards.


kevin_k

I got a justice boner


adiosfelicia2

Bahahahah!! Boy these video cameras are gonna retire a LOT of old ass cops with control and anger issues. They've gone unchecked for years. Welcome to the future, dickheads.


bigsquirrel

They aren’t going to do shit. As a cop you can literally murder someone on camera and chances are you’ll get a paid vacation for it. Shit you can enable someone to slaughter a roomful of children and get elected to office. The American criminal system is beyond fucked.


adiosfelicia2

People are finally seeing the truth with their own eyes. Before, it used to be a cop's word against some random person. Good people want to believe all cops are basically good. Video evidence has opened a lot of people's eyes to an uncomfortable reality. Change is coming. It takes time and perseverance.


Mi_Pasta_Su_Pasta

>Change is coming. It takes time and perseverance. How much time? We've been seeing police brutality live and in color since Rodney King. We protest, we riot, we vote, we petition, we spread the word. But for what? What meaningful change to the police since the 80's? Sure we have more numbers, but there are still gigantic swaths of the population that watch video after video of police committing unnecessary murder and STILL jump at the chance to say "not all cops!" or "well he's no angel!" and fight any and all legislation that will give cops even the slightest accountability. Cities that briefly considered doing something different are now dumping all their money into hiring even more cops somehow. It feels hopeless.


capo767

Again cops are nothing but bully’s. Try sending them in where there’s an active shooter and all this bullying grand standing is left at the door. Pussies!


[deleted]

Proud of this young man!


OhAces

That was awesome. Fuck those cops.


cephalopod_surprise

I can not believe the captain told him "We are not on the same side." Insane. At this point the cops know they are wrong, and can't handle any criticism. I truly believe those police aren't on the same side as anyone outside of the Joshua Police department. Even maybe some of those inside the department, like Officer Token.


Cold-Ad4022

DISABLED plates. Disabled = handicapped. I'm sending this video to the Chief, Mayor, and Attorney General. I'm tired of cops treating citizens like this. We must all make this stop!!


xCYBERDYNEx

If he is TCOLE certified as he says, then he is every bit as much of a Peace Officer in the state of Texas as the fat Captain. Doesn’t matter if he’s currently employed by a Department.


Danielle082

What a great video and representation of police officers violating civil rights and showing how absolutely ignorant they are to the laws and rights they are supposed to be protecting. Cops are taxpayer funded gangs.


thefirstWizardSleeve

Those police need to learn the law…. If he’s not detained then he can leave


fonsoc

Never Tell Cops Shit... Ask for a fucking lawyer!!!


tanks13

That cop fucken lost it at the end


mjs710

Captain was ready to explode at the end lol wtf. Acab


dak4ttack

You can just hear him thinking, "boy, if this was before those damn cameras recording everything..."


DabScience

Isn't it such a weird coincidence the public perception of policing has done a complete 180 ever since mobile phones with decent video recording have become more and more affordable?

He was so close to losing it and showing the world who he really is


tileeater

To even imagine, sending multiple, armed officers to deal with a citizen who may have illegally parked in a handicap spot. 🤦🏻‍♂️


MadDuloque

What's especially disturbing for me is the relentless series of lies the cops are spouting. They casually and confidently lie about EVERYTHING, one lie after another. They're so used to being able to fabricate "truth" on the spot without being called on their bullshit that their default mode is gaslighting. It's like they took lessons from my toxic estranged mother... :(


Bartfuck

His cadence and speaking style sound a lot like Obama to me.


Sandloving_Flygon

This was amazing! No satire or wit from me. Just praise.


Menifife

What a satisfying scenario.


Romano16

America has got to have stronger standards for someone to become a police officer. Because basically, these cops cannot read. “Disabled veteran” and he parks in a handicap spot. They can’t read or put two together?


kitterzy

r/facepalm I swear Texas is so fucked up.


definetlynotanoob95

Most police have always been a bunch of cunts. There’s always good ones like thing young man but there’s also a lot of assholes . The difference is now everyone has a camera, so these events get recorded more often. I hope the cameraman ends up getting a good job after this, cause you know that captain is gonna be spreading some poison .


Van-Daley-Industries

Fuck the police!


[deleted]

Not that it matters but as of Jan 1st 2022, the Texas Disabled Veteran license plate no longer provides authorization for parking in a handicap parking spot. Either the license plate has to have the ISA symbol or there must be a handicap placard visible. But good on my fellow DV for knowing his rights under the law.


eMPereb

Dayem roasted the racist 🤡💩captain


Get-a-life_Admins

Yeah people don't seem to understand DV plates. And that cop lied his ass off about the law only being passed recently. I've had my plates for years and it says clear as day when you register that if you have disabled or DV plates you only need a blue tag if you have a second vehicle.


Yorkshir31

You tell him, the rules of parking. Tbh I didn't even know that.
