Almost every police officer has their arms crossed. Defensive posture

Is there going to be a Demerger for IMPD and bring back MCSO patrol responsibities?

[hickoryoaks]

The officer will feel no stress because the have blue line brotherhood protection and immunity from all Traffic citations or arrest of any kind.

Did anyone tell the cops in this exercise that they were not allowed to tell anyone that they were cops?
If anyone can ever capture a cop actually getting a traffic citation, then I would really like to see it.

Doesn't count if excessive force isn't used & nobody shot 🤷🏾‍♂️

Nahh.. I hope tht was just 1 so called example/ traffic stop... do them where the officers give the same energy the public gives for that same simple reason but they make a mountain out of a mole hill

[adamcox]

Dude wasn't acting like he wanted to

The vast majority of traffic stops are revenue generating related. But they like to say it's for your safety and the safety of others but generally it always boils down to gathering that revenue.

Yeah I wonder who came up with that bright idea switch places and for what there only still one person with the power the cop not you

"Nobody hates bad cops more than good cops. Nobody.".
Well, sorry, but that is just pure and utter BS. If good cops hated bad cops that much then there would not be nearly so many bad cops across the nation. Good cops turn a blind eye to bad cops because of the "thin blue line" and associated BS that goes with it. The idea of "us versus them" between cops and the public is engrained from the moment cadets enter police academies, along with the credo that a cop's life is more important than that of a civilian. So, the assertion that good cops hate bad cops just doesn't hold up.

Walked up to window and takes a whiff:

Excuse me sir, have you been doing any drug’s tonight because the car smells like marijuana? I’m going to need you to step out for a moment.
