Don't get me wrong...there are definitely some asshat police officers but they are not in the majority here.
I didn't say majority, but it only takes a significant minority to make a huge impact on public relations. And IMO, public relations is everything to a working police force.

My opinion in the matter comes from my experience on both sides of the law from doing numerous ride-alongs, working as an EMT, and as a motorcyclist with a happy throttle hand.

The guy is a tool and overreacted. But looking at the hipster looking douchebags there (who don't appear to have jobs that day) I wouldn't be suprised if they targeted his "Gas guzzling global warming machine". I'd be pissed too (if that's what happend).

With 25 years on the police force he should have known that a good ol'fashion baton beat down is all that was needed there.

25 years can add up to a lot of entitlement issues.

If you're going to pop a fucking artery over a snowball, you need to turn your gun in to the nice man behind door number three, and take a fucking vacation.

I don't get it, were they all wearing Uggs or something? And do most people you know not have vacation time or not like to do fun things?

Anyone with:

A brain.

A day off, (in the snow, since the whole damn city is shut down).

Saturdays off.

Or a wardrobe that doesn't come from Tractor Supply, or the Sears retard section, is a "hipster".
