In the full video, a supervisor came to the scene and told one of the officers the most they could charge Sullivan with was public intoxication and possibly (a bogus charge of) resisting arrest.Gritsforbreakfasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10152152869466958902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-9675608746183178942016-06-10T08:01:17.542-05:002016-06-10T08:01:17.542-05:00So DWI (not DUI) is a capital offense so grave tha...So DWI (not DUI) is a capital offense so grave that we don't even need to have due process?<br /><br />Here's a guy who obviously obese and drunk. The first cop has his gun already pointed at him, the lady cop walks up with gun drawn and puts it away as does the other cop. They would not have holstered the guns had they still perceived a threat. <br /><br />They escalated the situation by first drawing guns and yanking him out of the car. I've been around plenty of drunk people, if they're not acting belligerent as this man wasn't, you can usually wait them out. God forbid these cops take an extra 10 or 20 minutes to handle this. <br /><br />At best this guy was under suspicion for public intoxication and maybe disorderly conduct.

In the hands of borderline sociopath's it's a deadly tool. The female officer who approaches the vehicle draws her weapon<br />without regard to any assessment of the situation. How can you feel safe on the street's with any of these Officer's on the job? <br /><br /> Anonymous: Don't be a punk and a law enforcement poser: PUBLISH YOUR NAME ! thelawprojecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15206266082410766300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-57815212297207437872016-06-10T01:47:33.136-05:002016-06-10T01:47:33.136-05:00So prevention of some theoretical possible death j...So prevention of some theoretical possible death justifies a clearly preventable and unnecessary death. The DUI and possible death of innocent other people was prevented when the officers arrived on the scene.
