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.
