He did the exact same thing this guy did before opening fire for no reason, except in tyreek’s case he was running his mouth while doing it. He didn’t technically commit a crime. Duh. He absolutely gave the officers 100% justification to NOT FUCK AROUND with these guys.
Come on dude. Don’t tell me you are one of those fucking dingbats who watch those jobless assholes doing their “1st amendment checks” and can’t admit they are complete fucking losers doing every tiny thing they can to be as much of a nuisance and borderline psychopath in the name of simply being a dickhead. They aren’t committing a crime, they are still fucking losers.
Tyreek wasn’t committing a crime, he still gave the police every right to feel they were in danger, even pretending this exact same situation didn’t end up in an unprovoked shootout just a couple months prior.
Firstly, i hate those "free speech guardian" type people who openly are confrontational with cops and film it just to try and be assholes. and i think being openly confrontational and angrily rebuking officers is bad. but that's not a solid point in this context, those guys almost never get violently removed from a vehicle. cops roll their eyes a lot, repeat commands over and over, etc. Often those people actually illegally ignore police commands, such as proving ID in a stop.
in the case of tyreek he didnt ignore any legal commands, its not illegal to roll your window up. in fact window tint limits are often set at a darkness that officers can still see easily inside of the vehicle for that very reason. in the span of about 5 seconds he's asked to keep his window down, then told if he rolls it up again he'll be asked to get out, and in charges sergeant tryhard who steps over the thing the actual officer at the window said to physically pull him out, cuff him, and put him on the ground. with next to zero justification. how many seconds exactly do you get to comply with requests? not even legal commands, requests. he handed over his license and registration, and wanted to roll up his window, which he's legally allowed to do.
but this is the problem, you're just taking liberal bait. we have to categorize. its really a quadrant with "acted legally", "acted illegally" and "encounters force", "did not encounter force".
this is how police are actually trained, they are told to escalate force and expectations of danger specifically when they witness illegal activity or at least suspect it. a guy had an mild attitude and rolled up a window, that would not be a training situation where police would advocate escalating force. but as is often the case police are more conservative with proper responses than those who are pro-police.
