There's a lot that can be gleaned from the video. Kids that age really tend to mirror the temperament of their parents. Each adult had camera time and had plenty of opportunity to lambaste the police. Do they? No - their concern is for what happened to their daughter.
These do not strike me as low-life people. There is no problem with LPD making contact and investigating the situation. Pointing out that it's not too smart to stand near the bank with a shotgun (which by now they know is unloaded). I don't even care about whether this was an OC issue at this point. I'm just pissed at the citation for the chippiest disorderly conduct citation I can imagine. God, FIR them, have them keep the shotgun in the carand get on with your shift. This is where I wish I was a Lawyer and felt the need to do some pro bono work.
