You’re right and i do value officer safety. I just cant understandwhy he had to abruptly and brusquely physically manhandle this father in front of his son. This involves a loss uv face.
Why did he need to suddenly grab him?
It seems that stopping, peering at his id and consulting a database should have done nicely —a mature , adult interaction.
Bad people have always hated cops but now also some good people do so, also.
Its sad and america should not be like this.
Exactly. That says it all. THAT is what escalated the situation needlessly. Tyranny naturally flows from such behavior on the officer's part...
True but at the 24 second mark, the guy grabbed his rifle but the cop isn't a mind reader.
Why did he need to suddenly grab him?
Probably because the guy grabbed onto his rifle. See the 24 second mark in the video.

I would think so too but when the guy grabbed onto his rifle at the 24 second mark and began physically resisting, the officer reacted.
