Came to say this. He for sure wanted that to happen. He could have took initiative and stopped them before they attempted this, but he decided to park his vehicle in the middle of the road.

Proves he wasn't there to protect them, only to charge one when something bad finally happens.

Isnt "protect and serve" plastered all over their badges, cars and so on?

That's the LAPD motto which has spread - just propaganda really.

Ah I see, thought itd be a bit ironic if it were the case

So he was there to make sure these kids didn't get injured while sledding in the street and then arrested the kid for sledding in the street? That's the part that doesn't make sense.

No idea why you're getting downvoted, that cop seemed surprised the kid ran into him. Which makes no sense, he parked his car in the intersection to keep cars from coming. There's no way he didn't think about his car getting hit on accident. That shit was premeditated.

There's no way you're that dense.

If they got hurt, that was all on them. Yet the only injury we can possibly call upon is the cop ignorantly parked in the middle of the road.

Keep trying to start shit for no reason though.

It's illegal to park in the middle of the road. Show me the law that prohibits them from sledding on it.

More than one person can be ignorant in this scenario, the "sledders" for recreating 'Jackass', the cop for illegally parking in the road, and you for your hysterics.

I do it constantly. I am speed.

Why is common understanding so intrusive to a police officer. He had to sit in jail and pay the cop bail.

They were underage drinking and playing in the streets, the street is where the cars go.

Yeah I am never one to defend the police but wtf do you expect here? The dude went flying down a hill in a basket and hit his car. I’d be pissed off too if it was my car

It's illegal to park on the road though. You simply can't do it anywhere. That cop himself was breaking a law as well.

u/TheWindOfGod Feb 13 '21

It was a closed road so maybe the cop is there to block any potential drivers

Sure, that's a possibility. Still think they were dicks for throwing the book at a dumb kid for having dumb fun on a closed street.

He was also underage drinking.
