I have a very strong feeling that legally, the officer was well within his right (out of safety) to do everything he did. Could he have used different words besides light you up? Sure. But his safety takes precedence and she was non compliant. His requests to her were perfectly acceptable. He does not Have to kiss her ass. It is expected that people follow police orders. I could tell that this woman was going to be some argumentativive, militant, activist within a minute of her talking.

This country is going to go up for grabs from assholes try to play the "fuck you pig, I know my rights" routine. Not every cop is perfect and neither are any of us. Shit like this will eventually trickle down and affect me.
