Yeah when that cop started lining up the Vettes to give them tickets for no front plate thats what I waited for him to get away from my car since I was parked like 30feet away from where the kid got arrested so once his back was turned I got the hell out of there before like twisted said they might shut the road down and ticket everyone

I didn't have a problem. I rolled in right when they police were in the streets. No big deal. I drove to the back and parked. Slicks, tinted windows, no front plate, no exhaust ect... There were way too many people in the streets and cars all over for that to go on for too long. I just can't believe how many people were there!!!!!!!!

No, the cops themselves got their stuff taken away. I don't care how loud someone gets, you can't hit them. Had someone randomly grabbed me out of my car, it would be on. Cop would get stuck in the eye, and nothing he could have done about it. Can't blame someone for defending themself when they're getting car jacked, right?

Sure, sometimes they go a little too far while doing their job, but you can get out of a lot of stuff if you don't act like a dick. And if they truly overstep their bounds, then you need to see a lawyer and take it to court. But if you just **** them off further at the scene by getting confrontational, it's only going to get worse....for you. If you think otherwise, then you're just being ignorant. And if you think you can intimidate them into backing off, then you're super ignorant.

LOL the way the kid was yanked from his car, is against what cops are allowed to do. cops do not have any extra rights or special privelages and yet so many of them think they do. if a cop harrasses you, you do have the right to protect yourself and or talk back. Yes it might land you in jail because of how ignorant many of them our, but it is something that can be faught in court.
secondly regardless of maglites, cops have an order of force they must use.
-verbal
-hand to hand restraining
-baton
-pepper spray
-tazer
-gun
This cop opened the kids door and yanked him out without a verbal...

I'm not sure where you tough guys got the idea you can fight with cops and "nothing will happen", but you'd be in for a BIG surprise. Fastest way to go from being in trouble to being in serious trouble is to attack/fight with the cops.
Sure, sometimes they go a little too far while doing their job, but you can get out of a lot of stuff if you don't act like a dick. And if they truly overstep their bounds, then you need to see a lawyer and take it to court. But if you just **** them off further at the scene by getting confrontational, it's only going to get worse....for you. If you think otherwise, then you're just being ignorant.

yes there are times cops should come off aggressive and hot headed but this one not one of them!
if I remember right the kid was hispanic, well if thats the case now the race card can be played
what if the person driving that the cop yanked out of the car, was an old many with a bad hip, the cop would have hurt him bad..
its not that some cops need their *** kicked, just some people need a lesson taught to them and this cop happens to be a person like that!

Not posting his face took his 5 minutes of LS1tech fame. Talk about being the WRONG kid to end up making an example of. Should have grabbed someone that drives like a dick all the time. I can think of a few people that would have been much better canadates.

Thanks for not posting the kids face. I thought it was totally unprofessional how the police handled the kid. I know the kid and he doesn’t drive recklessly at all!!! EVER!!! I believe that was his first burn out and it was his first speed Inc open house so that sucks.
