Exercising their rights...:shocker:The officer encounters push back from the driver, who demands to know why he needs to show his ID card.
'You're driving the car - that's why I need your ID,' replies the sergeant, then adding, 'I need everybody’s ID.'
One of the occupants of the vehicle says that he is going to start recording the traffic stop.
'Turn that phone off right now,' the sergeant orders the young man sitting in the back.
‘No, I have rights. I’m not intimidated, I have right, sir. I'm recording your ass...b****, you're on camera,’ the passenger defiantly declares to the cop.
Well, there it is, confirmation that exerting your rights is antagonizing cops.Chief Katz proceeded to point a finger of blame at the occupants of the car, who allegedly acted with antagonism towards the officers during the traffic stop, and by doing so provoked the escalation of the cops’ 'stress response.’
When I watch this video, I don’t see a car full of young men who are behaving in a manner consistent with fear of the police,’ Katz stated.

This sentiment has been posted on OCDO before. If there is no complaint filed then there is no foul in LE's view.I hate to disappoint them, but no gotcha moment exists here…which is why I suspect nobody ever came forward to make a complaint about this.’
