Nobody with a brain would do it to a person who has a gun, a badge and the power to at least hurt them to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees (at best), have them end up with a criminal record doing jail time (medium) and hurt/kill them "in self-defence" (at worst). Now, if he decides to hang up the uniform, turn in the gun and turn in the badge, if he was a real piece of scum, I'd have no problems with telling him to his face and if he has a problem with that, here's the door, the parking lot's empty.
Correct. They have every right to continue filming and at that point it even became their civic duty. Oily, if the cop told you to hit a family member for no/any reason, would he be justified in tazing/shooting you because you did not comply?
