Cop confrontation goes viral

The mayor and city manager in Rohnert Park, California, say they are investigating an incident where an unidentified officer drew his gun on a man recording him.

This is exactly why people have lost respect for police

He needs to be fired immediately. He's done. Not fit for the job anymore. Just a jaded old man who needs a nap.

“Are you some kind of Constitutionalist?”

Clearly the cop is not!

[ianbattles]

'Are you some kind of Constitutionalist?"

Officer, *didn't you swear an oath to uphold & defend the Constitution???*

[Gobberfisch]

"YOU NEED TO RELAX"
*has gun pulled out for no reason*

[alexgrabowski]

Those are the kind of people that shouldn’t be cops.

[ohcaptainmycaptain]

Authorities were not able to identify one of their own officers? That's a complete lie! They know who he is.

[buckskin]

No telling what this dirty cop has done in the past!!

[beanaye]

Citizen: *Records officer*

Cop: So you have chosen... death.

[brianmorrison]

"Just relax" as he draws his weapon and starts closing distance.

Someone abuses their power as an authority figure. Sickening. He should be fired without his pension.

There is nothing more despicable and sickening than someone who abuses authority to impose their will on another human being, for the purpose intimidation and control of someone. It is so sad and it turns my stomach to witness someone do this. They are attempting to stand between you and God, the only true authority. It is embarrassing to see them act like a fool in front of the whole world and their family and loved ones. Don’t they see that we are exposing them to the whole world. How are they not ashamed to be such a parasite in front of millions of viewers and loved ones. Nothing worse

[blindsquirrel]

We investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong.

[kodaz]

This cop has some serious issues and needs to be fired asap

[erniea]

Really, it's only 99% of cops who give the remaining 1% a bad name.

[lourdesecheverria]

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! THESE COPS NEED TO BE STOPPED.. FIRED. SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE.

[shaundejwan]

The first thing he does is pull out his gun, that escalated quickly.

[williamwisener]

As a former police officer, I'd say that this officer is a deadly threat and should be serving time in prison!

[vstyddq]

If you served in the military and took the oath… this is the domestic enemy the oath is talking about… it always blows my mind that you don’t see more veterans groups speaking out about things like this.

[malachimccoy]

That cop should be fired and put in jail...
