Cops Arrest Lawmaker Who Insists He Can’t Be Arrested

A state lawmaker in Oklahoma was in disbelief as he was being arrested for allegedly being drunk in public. According to an arrest report, State Representative Dean Davis was seen by Oklahoma City Police officers drinking on the patio of a bar after 2 a.m., which is against the law, but Davis didn’t seem to think he could be arrested because of his job as a legislator. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.

Bruh if a legislator believes they can get away with breaking the law, imagine what all the other politicians & government officials think and do

When you’re the law, but technically aren’t because you have to go to court to prove to the law that you’re a lawyer and can’t break the rules, but in reality, you broke the law, so now you must face the consequences of being a lawyer that broke the law that you defend in your defensive position

You missed the Oklahoma representative who got away with DUI. Couple months ago and said the same thing. Way bigger story.

Buddy thought he had a “GET OUT OF JAIL FREE” card in his wallet 😂

[victortoombs]

A classic case of "Do you know who I am?" 😂😂😂

Wow! BIG congrats to that cop for not being intimidated by this clown. Politicians will ruin an officers life for something like this if they can.

Never tell a cop he can't arrest you!!!

So thankful I got sober over 15 years ago... It's still one day at a time.

The level of entitlement is staggeringly sad

[mattheww]

He was arrested for sitting outside with a drink?

[ppinmouth]

What other crimes has he committed that he "believes" he can't be arrested for?!

Congress makes the laws, but no one is above the law.

[sandhanitizer]

Someone gave that dude that card as a joke and he took it seriously lmao

[scooterbaby]

these effing people think they're all above the law

[carolinemorgan]

Can someone please explain to me how one's job puts them above the law? If someone could please explain that to me I would greatly appreciate it lol

[liamcrawford]

Sounds like a bad case of “do you know who I am?”. Lol!

"The incident inspired him to work harder"

He didn't learn the correct lesson and moral of the story from this incident, which is that he is *not* above the law even if he is a lawmaker.

You can’t drink on a patio after 2 am?!? That is the most ridiculous law I’ve ever heard of 😑
