Care to point out where I cheerlead the cops? And as said elsewhere, and shouldn't need to be said at all, if workers feel threatened by a customer, or a customer refuses to leave after having been asked to, those workers are well within their rights to call the cops. We don't have a full picture since the video starts late, but shitting on the workers just because they work for WalMart is not firm ground to stand on.

Absolutely horrible. The city and Walmart owe this veteran an apology. Bigly. eom IllinoisBirdWatcher Jan 2019 #6

Anyone know what the ultimate charge and resolution were? Idiots telling a man in a wheel chair.... George II Jan 2019 #8

Further, there's a television report on this incident, seems like when they had him on the floor.... George II Jan 2019 #9

Rather than defuse the situation, it seems like the cops were determined to rurallib Jan 2019 #13

They literally didn't have to do anything Major Nikon Jan 2019 #17

some of the veteran's words mirror "sovereign citizen" rhetoric cab67 Jan 2019 #10

This isn't Nazi Germany where the police may demand your papers for no reason Major Nikon Jan 2019 #15

no - cab67 Jan 2019 #19

There's no state in which you must produce ID without reasonable cause Major Nikon Jan 2019 #20

Well, belligerent cops aside, state law requiring ID of purchasing parties would seem reasonable. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #21

half a dozen cops took a guy in a wheel chair to the floor and sat on him, maybe pepper sprayed him Kali Jan 2019 #23

You gonna read the post you responded to? DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #26

"if" Major Nikon Jan 2019 #29

"If" he were black, then "no reason" would be a likely scenario... DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #31

So because he's white we can assume there was a reason? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #33

So because he's a disabled vet we can assume there was no reason? DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #37

We can assume there's no reason because there's zero evidence to suggest otherwise Major Nikon Jan 2019 #42

Mea culpa, Oklahoma not Michigan... but OK has ID for alcohol purchase law too. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #43

It's already been discussed here how the local news media left a lot of shit out Major Nikon Jan 2019 #47

Probably about the same as it has on the Internet. Usually how it goes. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #49

That's what tort law is for Major Nikon Jan 2019 #52

the post I responded to said you weren't going to watch the video. Kali Jan 2019 #46

I've been buying booze without showing an ID for over 30 years Major Nikon Jan 2019 #24

No the sellers would be breaking the law and subject to severe fines. And do you know they ddn't ask DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #25

So why not restrict the argument to the not-stupid? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #27

You started from the premise of you not producing ID for 30 years as if relevant. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #30

Relevance kinda went out the window when you started inventing laws Major Nikon Jan 2019 #32

I invented the state law? You sure that's a hill you want to stand on? Edit: Mea culpa, see inside DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #36

Sure, because Michigan state laws are entirely relevant in Oklahoma Major Nikon Jan 2019 #44

I caught my error a minute before you posted, probably before your page refreshed. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #48

I don't think it's all that mature alleging someone is stupid Major Nikon Jan 2019 #51

I didn't call you stupid, I called your argument stupid. If you're going to twist that... DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #53

Actually it was your argument, you brought it up as if anyone gave a day old dogshit Major Nikon Jan 2019 #56

Height of absurdity. I leave the posts to speak for themselves. Others can judge. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #57

Speaks volumes when you leave after being asked for proof of your allegations against Kali and me Major Nikon Jan 2019 #60

Alrighty then... DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #62

Nice when you actually post the proof which disproves your assertion Major Nikon Jan 2019 #63

Don't know why the links failed, but I quoted the exact sentences from the posts... DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #64

The links just add more context to your non-sequitur Major Nikon Jan 2019 #65

I started with calling the cops belligerent. Pretty clear my meaning and opinion from the getgo. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #66

You seem to think I'm wanting you to agree Major Nikon Jan 2019 #67

Give him a fucking ticket and kacekwl Jan 2019 #41

I found news reports that don't rely on the video. The incident was more complex. DRoseDARs Jan 2019 #45

do you have proof of that ? StTimofEdenRoc Jan 2019 #74

Trump did say you need an id to get cereal... LakeArenal Jan 2019 #68

I suspect there will be more coverage Major Nikon Jan 2019 #69

I don't think it's that simple. Mosby Jan 2019 #80

It is that simple Major Nikon Jan 2019 #82

I'm not disagreeing, but cops do what they want. Mosby Jan 2019 #83

I understand that part and agree Major Nikon Jan 2019 #84

They actually mirror what any lawyer would tell you Quixote1818 Jan 2019 #34

half a dozen cops take down a guy in a wheel chair? Kali Jan 2019 #18

The cops were all over the place here. They asked for his ID and he asked "What am I being detained Quixote1818 Jan 2019 #28

It's pretty common that cops are ignorant of the actual laws they are trying to enforce Major Nikon Jan 2019 #35

I'd really like to see what was going on before the video started. After working retail for years Zipgun Jan 2019 #39

Agreed. The police were in their rights to arrest the perpetrator democratisphere Jan 2019 #54

You might want to watch the video again Major Nikon Jan 2019 #59

I don't GAF if he was upset an ass or whatever. kacekwl Jan 2019 #40

It really is that simple. nt Quixote1818 Jan 2019 #50

I could not agree with you more. StTimofEdenRoc Jan 2019 #73

Something was lost by cutting out how it all started but Jarqui Jan 2019 #55

I was on his side as you can see from my posts above, until I read this Quixote1818 Jan 2019 #81

I didn't think it was an accident that they cut out the start Jarqui Jan 2019 #85

I agree with everything you just said. nt Quixote1818 Jan 2019 #86
