Weird Things That Help You Accept Hard Facts

[FlashTalk5]

All my life, I have respected the police for doing their jobs right. However, earlier in my childhood, my dad told me that not all cops were good. It was hard to imagine, for I had never imagined bad cops until the summer of 1998 when I finally saw the underrated Super Mario Bros. movie, and guess what: King Koopa's troops were the twisted versions of the NYPD and boy was the whole precinct bad! For example, they arrested Toad for playing an anti-Koopa song and the Marios shared the same fate with him after they attempted to stop the cops from arresting him for what they called a stupid law. As I continued to watch that part with the Koopa police, I started to imagine easily about how bad cops can be.

 

Exit Wounds from 2001 was another underrated movie. It went deeper into police corruption and how one renegade, but honest cop tried to stop a group of corrupt ones trying to getting away with the drug bust, as well as framing someone else for it.

 

Weird isn't it?

Trying to stop cops who are in the process of arresting someone, because you think the law is unjust, is not an example to follow in real life.

Exactly, mk. I've seen a lot people on TV and youtube get arrested for doing something like that, especially uncontrollable women.

This. I doubt that doing this ever has a good result.

If you call yourself trying to film cops who are doing unjust things, just pray that they don't see you.

And nine times out of ten.. I bet alcohol or drugs were a factor.

When suspects take alcohol or drugs, the thing that's probably the most angering is that no matter how tight the handcuffs are (depending on the size of the wrists, of course), the suspects will from time to time break out of them. 1999, while watching World's Wildest Police Videos was the first time seeing someone break out of their handcuffs; it was 17-year-old girl in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The second time was during the Christmas Holidays of the same year while I was watching COPS. It was in Forth Worth, TX, when a 15-year-old girl on drugs was about to be sent back to juvenile. While one officer talked with her mother, the other officer guarding her was given a lot of hell when he had to fight to restrain her after breaking out of her handcuffs. What was worse was: she bit the officer! She eventually was recuffed and hopefully, the cuffs were tighter. In times like these, even if cops have to tighten the cuffs all the way down, they have to make sure the suspect doesn't break out of them!

In some states it is illegal to film cops doing unjust things or not. I'm not sure how google handles this.

Those laws do not stand up in court. The First Amendment keeps it legal to film anything that you can see while legally standing in a public place. Otherwise paparazzi would all be in jail.
