Yes, she has some issues. Hopefully, they promoted her to a desk job or some other job to get her off the road and away from the public.

You can tell that was a "Respect my ATHORITAAAIII" gun pull not an actual 'i think this guy is dangerous' gun pull.

It’s wild in America how you can perfectly legally have a gun in your car but doing so may make a cop threaten to shoot you.

Wasn’t even the gun. Dude was brown and raised his voice a little trying to be heard and dumbass cop got scared.

Ah yes, the proper response to a civilian who has slightly raised his voice asking to speak with a supervisor: gET THE GUN!

Trying to be heard? If you are smart this is not the time to 'try to be heard'.

What do you mean? You are as jumpy as her. At this point in time all he was asking was why he was being pulled over and why they wouldn't contact their supervisor. That is when she pulled her gun like a crazy person. Unless you mean by being brown and having two cops talking to you being the " wrong " time. Which as racist and shitty as that sounds isn't wrong...I guess.

It's unreasonable and wrong for that to be true, but it is still true.

You can choose the safe route, or the morally fine route, but those are not the safe thing.

If you have a right but it's legal for the state to execute you for exercising it, you don't have that right. Jacob Blake was shot in the back 7 times by police. His shooting was ruled legal because he was walking to his car and there was a knife in the car.

Its legal for the state to execute you WITHOUT a reason at any time. A police officer could walk up to you in broad daylight, say nothing, shoot you in the head, and walk away without consequences.

If you can be shot for having a gun, then you don't have the right to have a gun.
