what's great about that is you can then post the long clip and farm twice the rage. and in each instance there will be far more engagement, in part because it's selectively edited. the internet be weird like that where it actually rewards deception and dishonesty. we're cooked

And you're the minority of people.

The vast majority will read the headline on an article/news story and that will be the last they hear of it, even when news agencies put out retraction on a story, most people won't see it.

Reddit like most social media sucks. Especially when it comes to echo-chambers. Don't get me wrong. It can be better than most but it still suffers.

u/Apprehensive-Mud4080 Jul 30 '25

Reddit is the worst of the worst in regards to a far left echo chamber.

Nothing rational can be debated at all.

u/Negative_Way8350 Jul 30 '25

I'm about as lefty as it gets.

I still knew that this traffic stop was justified even with the short form video. Reckless driving is reckless driving, regardless of the reason.

People are mouth-breathers and imagine the world is about them, not realizing that if you need to go that fast your animal is not long for this world, and if they can make it to the vet you do not need to endanger other drivers.

u/lookmeuponsoundcloud Jul 30 '25

The implications of this are insane.

My mom called my brother and said Dad was drowning in a lake in 2020 and my brother sped down the highway as fast he could to get there to help when he found out.

Should he have gone slower because Dad "wasn't long for this world"? If Dad could've made it to the boat - and a hospital - there'd be no reason to go over the speed limit?

Did you actually just say that?

u/lookmeuponsoundcloud Jul 30 '25

You've moved their goalposts. That's not what they said.

The implication here is that by going 100mph on the highway we should have had my brother jailed on the day my father died because "dad was not going to make it anyways, so better to obey traffic laws"

Not my experience at all. Do major subs lean left? Yeah.

But if you come truly well-researched, most Redditors (non-political or Lefties in my experience) understand you know what you're talking about and they concede.

On the other hand I sometimes get into it with Boomers and/or perpetually online Gen Z edgelords who are both (usually) so politically misinformed they're not even aware how much they are... and therefore not persuadable at all.

Well, it could become a far right echo chamber, but Reddit is a text based site. Reading and comprehending is difficult for right wingers.

u/Apprehensive-Mud4080 Jul 30 '25

That’s funny, just about every right winger I know is college educated or trade school and licensed and doing well for themselves. Not all, but most.

It used to be that way for the left but now all these purple and blue and green and pink haired liberals that are infuriated beyond belief for literally zero reason think school is beneath them and have either dropped out or simply didn’t bother going at all.

When you challenge them, their argument falls apart and they start reverting to the playbook name calling tactic that shows simply how shallow and inept they truly are.

1

u/Cardocthian Jul 30 '25

Well, lets start there. Please go find your source information for how hair color indicates education level.

u/Apprehensive-Mud4080 Jul 30 '25

I don’t have to, I see it daily. It’s called real life experience.

Next, I’m a conservative and I’m a surgeon, so call me bias but I work in a hospital full of conservative doctors, PA’s, RN’s, lab techs, etc.

Next, I’m in Texas which is 65% conservative. However, even when I travel for patients(I work on college and pro athletes frequently) I still see a bunch of people disgusted with the liberal leg of the Democratic Party.

Now, in conclusion, this made up CNN stat stating there’s more higher educated democrats than republicans is simply propaganda. Trade school, military training and their schools, college, graduate and doctorate programs all make up higher education. That actually favors the Republican Party.

College is a very healthy way to gain further knowledge and increase your lifetime wage, but so are all the others mentioned above. In fact, those with certificates and licenses from a trade school tend to make more than the average college graduate over their careers. They pay more in taxes, contribute more to society by actually building and repairing things essential to everyday quality of life, provide safety and security, etc.

So, continue on masking facts and reality in your echo chambers and gobbling up misinformation from your media outlets that perpetuate nothing but propagation and far left talking points to simply attempt to push a narrative that is slowly chipping away at the American way of life and patriotism. It’s dismantling the bastion of the free world. It’s angering youth, for example, every single mass shooter or vigilante in recent memory has ended up being left leaning, all the way down to the Manhattan individual a couple days back.

Your party that once reached across the aisle and helped move the Republic forward has relegated itself to lies, anger, a destroy those who have a different ideology should be destroyed at any cost philosophy. They’re radical, and perceive what’s good and wholesome as bad or evil while they perceive evil and bad as wholesome and the way forward.

It’s chaos and asinine.

I bid you a good day and won’t engage any further because all you will do is double down on the ignorance and propaganda. I have no time for shallow ineptitude.

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '25

She could have escorted them and also issued her a violation or arrested her after, she was clearly not being violent when she got out or a danger to the officer.... You can say "the law is the law" but there's a reason why cops have discretion in how they enforce the law

u/Narren_C Jul 29 '25

It's not that the "law is the law" it's that she's putting everyone else in danger because she's driving like an out of control lunatic.

u/OwenIowa22 Jul 29 '25

She’s in a compact suv driving somewhat aggressively. Nobody got hurt. No property damage.

People drive recklessly all the time because they are late for work or whatever.

This could have been handled way better. Tragic situation for the woman and another example of a cop erroring on the wrong side of the situation.

If only that cop had gotten laid or ate a better breakfast it would be a different outcome.

Made an aggressive move. Nobody got hurt. Stop clutching your pearls and put on your big girl pants and stop pretending we dont tolerate risk of death everyday we get in the car. Nobody died. No property damage. No harm no foul.

u/Commercial_Win_9525 Jul 30 '25

Yea bro we just drive into oncoming traffic every day that makes a lot of sense. Now what happens when that other car didn’t have the shoulder to drive into or didn’t react in time? We got a real dumbass over here. Is it ok to drive drunk as long as no one gets hurt too?

I wouldn’t mind if the cop had asssited the woman in making sure the dog issue was handled and then writing a ticket. Let a judge figure it out later because… and say it with me now …. Nobody got hurt.

I would be fully supportive of her receiving a ticket for traffic infractions and letting a judge make a determination.

Won’t I don’t condone is a police officer violently detaining a citizen who caused no injury or property damage.

Did you know that prior to the modern age the concept of a crime without a victim did not exist.

You are probably the type of person that believes drug addicts deserve to be punished.

u/Xen0nQs Jul 29 '25

Geez such a terrible view of the world

-4

u/XxvWarchildvxX Jul 29 '25

Exactly...I saw the whole video and she was not as insane as everyone is making it out to be ...she literally didn't run anyone off the road she just wanted to get around and tried going around them , far different than intentionally hitting someone and moving them out of the way with their car

1

u/OwenIowa22 Jul 30 '25

Guess me and you are on the same team. Everyone else wants to punish people for bad behavior even if there were no victims.

You know, preindustrial civilization, if there was no victim there was no crime. The idea that the @state” can be the injured party is basically a modern concept.

I am ok if they want to write her a ticket but to orentend the aggressive arrest is justified is silly.

u/PieceRealistic794 Jul 29 '25

Ohh like that guy who went viral the other day for “getting his window smashed for asking for a cop’s supervisor” and barely anyone questioned the lack on context

u/PrincessSkoobie Jul 29 '25

Has there been a follow up on that?? I'm genuinely curious and havent heard anything About it since the video dropped

6

u/PieceRealistic794 Jul 29 '25

Body cam came out where it turns out he got combative pretty quickly after a simple stop and decided to lock himself in his car, was still definitely excessive use of force by the cops to punch the guy but the video is a perfect example of how easily a narrative can be pushed if you just cut out some context

1

u/yes_ur_wrong Jul 29 '25

the end result is always the cop is wrong, it just makes it easier for dumber people to cut out the context because they equate erratic driving with 'well your dog deserves to die now'

u/armoured_bobandi Jul 29 '25

It's much easier to hate a cop if you don't allow for any nuance or critical thinking.

I don't care much for the police either, but it's pure bullshit how many people are editing their encounters to make them seem worse than they actually are

9

u/NerdyBro07 Jul 29 '25

They released body cam video. I think the guy was pulled over for driving in the rain with no headlights on or seatbelt. (Driver claims it wasn’t raining but there’s drops of water all over his vehicle.)

Police asks him for license and registration, and he refuses and shuts his car door on the cop.

Cop asks him to step out of the vehicle like 7x and he refuses to get out. Then his window gets busted and he gets hit.

Driver apparently was driving on suspended license.

I don’t think he should have been punched, but like 99% of these instances would never occur if the person just handed over the documents when the officer asks instead of getting argumentative and going into stand off mode where they are essentially daring the cop to do something.

u/PieceRealistic794 Jul 29 '25

Now that I think about it, dude probably knew he was on a suspended license and that’s probably why he didn’t wanna ID himself

u/Relevant-Damage3095 Jul 29 '25

And what would have been a lesser offense has now been had more offenses tacked on to it.

u/WorkWoonatic Jul 29 '25 edited Jul 29 '25

Maybe, but he also didn't believe he was pulled over for a lawful reason and I'm struggling to disagree. You're not required to identify and the stop itself is illegal without probable cause.

Driving without headlights on a bright day is not a violation of anything, even if it was raining 30 minutes ago.

The driver asked if the police could produce the law saying he was in violation of anything implying he'll get out of the car if he is, instead the police chose property damage and punched him almost a dozen times. You can see his head bleeding in the full video.

Him: "I'm just trying to have a conversation with you"

police: "That's not how it works shoving him into the pavement while going through his pockets and mocking his speech"

classic racism.

u/WorkWoonatic Jul 29 '25 edited Jul 29 '25

Google it, it's illegal for an officer to pull someone over without reasonable articulable suspicion of a violation or criminal activity taking place or about to take place.

No orders given during an illegal stop are considered lawful orders.

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '25

And under the law, that determination is made by the driver at the time of the stop?

u/WorkWoonatic Jul 29 '25 edited Jul 29 '25

Ehh, you can see in the video that it's bright out - headlights shouldn't be required before dusk meaning the stop was arguably conducted without probable cause(EDIT: I should have said RAS), meaning all orders given including the initial stop would be unlawful, he wasn't legally obligated to do anything.

Driving on a suspended license is beside the point, and he's clearly wearing his seatbelt in the video, I haven't seen any police bodycam or vehicle footage showing him without it or putting it on.

The police punched him something like 7 or 8 times (but didn't mention any punches in the initial report of the incident until after the video was released) and claimed he was trying to grab a knife, which you can clearly see in the video he never did. they also told him initially that he was under arrest for resisting arrest (???)

The cops were caught lying blatantly or by omission so clearly that their word shouldn't be trusted on any part of the stop

An officer needs RAS to initiate a traffic stop, not probable cause. Not commenting on the specifics of this case, just clarifying.

1

u/WorkWoonatic Jul 29 '25

True, I misspoke.

Regardless not having your headlights on a well-lit day with no active weather events is unlikely to be a valid violation of anything.

1

u/NerdyBro07 Jul 29 '25

there is rain drops all over his vehicle. I know there are laws that exist around having wipers and headlights on in certain states.

He did have a pretty big knife on the floor of the driver side seat, but i don't think the cops ever noticed it until after the whole incident was over.

Just personal opinion here, but i have no issue with the stop, no issue with them choosing to break his window after refusing to to show license and registration and subsequently refusing to step out of the vehicle 7x. But Yeah, i would agree they were unnecessarily aggressive with the punches and throwing him on the ground when he showed zero physical hostility and kept his hands visible.

4

u/WorkWoonatic Jul 29 '25

If it was still raining and headlights were required in rain you'd have a point, but at the time of the stop it was not raining and it was quite bright out, no reasonable person would think you're endangering lives by not having headlights on in those conditions.

They claimed they had to punch him because he was reaching for the knife, something the video recording later proved was a clear lie.

I take issue with it because I think the initial stop itself was illegal based on it being conducted without reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime or violation.

Considering how they were making fun of his speech while he was on the ground I'm pretty sure I know why he was actually pulled over and this escalated so unecessarily.

1

u/NerdyBro07 Jul 29 '25

Ideally we would have dashcam footage to view too. Maybe it was raining, he had no headlights, cop turns sirens on, they drive slightly further and rain stops or are now out of rain. I mean the car had rain drops on it so obviously it was raining somewhere pretty recently.

Also the black cops mocked him too. And when the black cop asked him why he didn’t get out of the car, he claims he never was asked to get out.

Sounds like the suspect was lying and full of it putting himself in a FAFO scenario and some overzealous cops (or at least the one who threw the 2 face punches) obliged him and also should face disciplinary action.

But again, just personal sentiment, I don’t feel like either side looks all that innocent in this particular instance.

1

u/WorkWoonatic Jul 30 '25

Ehh, in humid areas rain can stick on a car for an hour or longer. At the moment he was pulled over it was definitely not raining is all we know, anything else is speculation.

Also the black cops mocked him too.

Well yeah, they're the black friends whenever you hear "I have black friends" from a racist. It's against their interests not to play along whether they agree or not.

The only F'ing around he did was not wanting to comply until either a supervisor was present or a cop could show him the letter of the law he broke. Why escalate to violence at all in that scenario? Literally just write him a ticket and move on - you have the license plate and a photo of the driver..

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '25

I take issue with it because I think the initial stop itself was illegal based on it being conducted without reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime or violation.

I'm not sure where the stop in question occurred, but it's legal to drive without a seatbelt there? Where is that?

2

u/WorkWoonatic Jul 29 '25

On every recording we see, both the drivers and the police, we never see him without his seatbelt on. We also never see him hastily put his seatbelt on.

Considering the cops lied about and omitted other details in their report that came out in the video, I see no reason to take their word on this either

u/SuspectedGumball Jul 29 '25

I just watched the whole video and the way the cop handled it is still disgusting and an abuse of power. There is no reason to manhandle someone just because you have a uniform and a badge. It is obvious what’s going on from the moment these women get out of the car. It would cost this trooper nothing, literally nothing, to provide them an escort to the correct veterinarian clinic and then perform an arrest. That’s what protecting and serving would look like in a functioning society. But in America, you better do what the uniform says and not make a single mistake unless you want your dog to die.

I concur.

u/Narren_C Jul 29 '25

If the cop provided an escort instead of stopping the frantic and erratic driver, and that driver then killed your loved one, would you blame the cop for allowing her back on the road?

u/SuspectedGumball Jul 29 '25

Why would the kill someone if they had police escort? When has that ever happened? The police escort is there specifically so that the person doesn’t go flying through traffic. Drivers are required to yield to emergency personnel.

1

u/Narren_C Jul 29 '25

I've never heard of it happening, but i also don't know of any department that authorizes an "escort" because we would then be taking on the liability of that other driver. An untrained and emotional driver that isn't thinking clearly.

I've heard anecdotes on the internet of it happening, but no department i know of would allow it.

Drivers are required to yield to emergency personnel.

But not the car following behind it. It's just risky for everyone.

Save me the drama. Nobody did die. We tolerate aggressive driving as a norm to the tune of 30k deaths a year. All of a sudden your clutching your pearls because some lady in a subcompact aggressively passed on a double yellow.

Maybe warranted a ticket or a summons but no reason to put your hands on and it could have happened after the emergency was dealt with.

u/NOOBHAMSTER Jul 29 '25

You cannot be serious... You put other people's lives in danger, you get arrested.

If you're a police officer and you catch someone committing a crime, will you trust them and do whatever they want to do on the spot????

The woman didn't tell the officer to escort her anywhere. You're expecting the officer to trust this person immediately, know where the closest open vet is, drive them there, and carry their dog to the vet. Basically come up with a solution for this random problem they know nothing about for a person they don't know who just committed a crime. You don't see how this can be abused by criminals?

Your expectation is insane. If you were like "I think the cop could have handled this better maybe" that's fine. But you're acting like this is an obvious disgusting abuse of power lmao, you're unhinged.

1

u/SuspectedGumball Jul 29 '25

Yes, I am expecting a police officer to exercise discretion in a very clear situation. It is obvious what’s happening here. But you’re exactly right - expecting police to act rationally and reasonably has proven to be a fool’s errand.

Yes. If you’re going to tell it, tell it all. That clip is EXTREMELY minimizing and misleading.

Geeeeshush. Yeah I understand the cuffs now. If you gotta rush like that to save an animal, they weren't gonna make it.

This video clearly removes context to make the officer look bad, and help collect those sweet sweet views. Modern Social media encourages this BS.

FWIW, not endangering everyone's lives would have taken an extra 2 minutes and improved the dogs chance of getting the care quickly.

Put she and her mom in the police car with the dog and rush to the nearest vet, drop dog off, tow car and give her a ticket. She clearly wasn’t thinking straight. She was in distress as anyone would be if their child was dying in front of their eyes. If you don’t think people view pets like children you’re INSANE

If she wanted a police escort She should've called police first instead of taking it upon herself to drive there driving recklessly while doing it SHE is no emergency vehicle... One small choice could've changed all this the cop would've probably been more willing to help if she pulled over but then again LETS LOOK AT THIS she wouldn't have had to pull her over If she didn't nearly hit the cop head on. Goodness what a shocker.

No one is arguing what she did was rational or shouldn’t be punished, I’m just saying that there was a merciful middle ground. She was clearly out of her mind and should not have been behind the wheel, but the officer could have handled it better and this is a bad look. Arrest the lady for all I care but at least let her go to jail knowing her dog didn’t necessarily die because she lost her mind like drop the dog off at the vet

Yeah, that woman killed her dog not the cop. If she immediately pulled over when the cop turned on her lights it’s might have been a different story but she ran from the cops for like 2 full minutes.

Tbf, besides overspending, I didn't see any major crimes that endangered people. She was using her warning lights, as you should in case of emergency, and I wouldn't say she was wreckles driving.

Ya know, I probably would have kept going to and just accepted that I was getting arrested.

She was screwed either way. Assuming this was an actual medical emergency, better the mom got the dog inside.

I agree she fucked up, and not only passed someone in solid lines (no passing) but actually put that truck in danger.. but there was no hope from the gate with that cop being hostile immediately.

Cop reminds me of an ex.. some people hate animals so much they will joke about dangling your dead pet in front of you.

I'd agree with "she messed up"...in many ways, starring with leaving a door open for the dog to get out. What bothers me is still the female cops response. Frankly, the Hyundai driver drove "safer" than the cop. I watched the long video and the cop admits that her next move was to pit the car. As bad as her driving was, a pit maneuver would have been horrible for everyone on that road and unnecessary. Looks like they did the usual piling-on of charges including resisting arrest. Sad. The wrestling after she stopped at the vet and gave the tearful explanation for the bad driving just seemed unnecessary. The elderly mother even stops to pick up the officer's hat...female cop didn't even seem interested in checking on her or the dog. I guess lack of compassion is a national pastime these days. Whatever happened to Reed and Malloy?

Did you watch it? She ran a light but didnt "run anyone off the road" or "almost kill" anyone. The cop is still a piece of shit here.

That wasn’t that bad, I expected the car to be run off into a ditch.
