    Your point is that if the police officer gets upset your likely to be arrested.

    Stop sucking the dick of law enforcement.

  • @potheed29 No problem, I think my point has been made. Next time you have no viable argument, you might not look like such a jackass if you simply say that. Have a good hate filled, racist life.

  • I agree! They did act stupidly!

  • Ron Paul 2012

  • What an idiot! _ He, obviously, didn't hv a "prompter" 'cause he sucks in ab libbing!

  • People are too quick to vilify the policy. So the man showed ID that's fine but how was the cop not to know that perhaps the mans family was being held hostage inside at gunpoint. The professor was quick too pull the race card. I'm latino and If I dress like a thug I'm guaranteed to get pulled over but if dress normal and dont wear baggy, gang type of clothes the cops dont even look at me.

  • "I ordered this steak medium-rare...IS THIS BECAUSE IM BLACK!!!?!!?!?!"

  • All I see is a "President" acting "stupidly" every day since Jan. 20, 2009. A community organizer, a screw-up in every sense of the word, not qualified to be a CEO of a lemonade stand much less the world's superpower and he's all of a sudden an expert on police procedure.

    Obama would never pass a background check to become a peace officer. If he did, though, he wouldn't last a year as a patrol officer. Everything about him screams out, "I'm NOT police officer or Presidential material".

  • Obama = Anarchist

  • Obama is right -- Fuck officer Crowley, stupid asshole.
