Excuse me? She was on her PRIVATE PROPERTY.

The cop had no business even being close to her property without a warrant.

Your homepage says your ancestors fought in the American Revolution? Who for? George III? Your supporting affronts to property and security on one’s property from unreasonable police presence that Fat George would have been been in favor of, you know.

So comeon then. Put the money up! See, it's not really a gamble to you, since you are so 100% right, correct? I mean, it's a no brainer! So it's not really gambling!

Put your cash where your teeth live.

On this thread you can read where SoldierDad unequivocally called the DA a coward and a liar for dropping the case.

Actually, what I said was the DA didn't have the balls to pursue charges against the woman for interfering with a police officer. The charge that I called the DA a liar is a fabrication of Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears. Surprise surprise that he'd make such a fabrication.

Sorry, I don’t gamble - ever.

OK, then how about a formal vanity thread where you apologize/admit being wrong if this turns out to be the case?

Others can come along and post cartoons of people wearing dunce caps, and have a good ol time at your expense. You know, all in fun, since you don't bet money and all.

Interesting comment!

I said to Laz on another thread on this topic that the people blindly defending the cop in this case would have been Loyalists during the American Revolution.

It’s probably exactly correct.

I also made the statement of wanting to know what the woman said before she began videotaping the officers on an earlier thread. Apparently these anti-cop FReepers could care less about what the woman did.

It’s bogus. Are you not even allowing for the POSSIBILITY that this cop was being Billy Badass, and wanted to save face in front of his cop buddies?

Of course it's possible. But if that was his intention, he certainly didn't do a good job. From the video, he appears to be calm and polite, explaining his concerns and making a seemingly reasonable request several times. He does not come across as an unreasonable JBT pissed off about being videotaped. On the other hand, she comes across as looking to instigate an incident.

Look, I don't reflexively support the cops in these situations. In way too many cases, you have guys with badges and an insecurity complex trying to prove how important they are. That's not what I saw here.

Now, the city may settle just because it is cheaper financially. But if this went to trial, I think she would have a hard time winning. The cop just does not come across as trying to bully her or abuse his authority.

Deal, SoldierDad?

Public humiliation. Game to make the wager?

Increible the number of so-called conservatives on FR of late who are supportive of a left-wing moonbat who intentionally went out of her way to incite the officer, and got what she was looking for - a potential payday through public tax dollars. I’m glad this woman is filing this suit. She’ll look like the money grubbing SEIU type thug that she is when all is said and done.

Our anarchist contingent sticking up for this money grubbing commie pest named Emily Good.

More can be found out about Good and her partner, Ryan Acuff in this article. Can you imagine the bad luck of the cops making an arrest of a black man in front of their house?

You better get back in your house before Soldier Dad has you arrested. :)

After watching the video numerous times, she’ll lose the case. >>>>>>

I agree. Last week it was reported that a money grubbing law firm is out 7 million in expenses when they lost the class action sexual disinformation suit against WalMart...and hopefully they will be paying WalMart’s attorney fees in the millions

Where she was born, who she votes for or what she eats, have nothing to do with this arrest incident.

Is this “offer” going both ways? Or, are you too fearful of the outcome? One caveat. Since the DA didn’t have the balls to back up his LEO, if the city settles out of court - no deal. There must be a court or jury finding. And, if the officer does lose (very low chance of that), we’ll also await the appeal. Deal?

Yes I did. I’m sorry we disagree, but I’m making my opinion based on 30 years as a cop. The copper over reacted to a nonevent. A perception of danger has to be reasonable and the cop has to be able to articulate what was so dangerous about this particular woman. He’s got a hell of a lot of articulating to do, and with what I’ve seen and read so far, I’m very sceptical about his chances.

Where she was standing, withing feet of the traffic stop, does have something to do with her arrest. The fact that she was hoping for one of the officers to react to her presence of being too close to the incident also has something to do with her arrest. Do me a favor. Next time you come across a police officer during a traffic stop or some other police action, walk up within a few feet of where they are conducting that police action. Then let me know what happens. I’ll be waiting.

Allow me to copy and paste our conversation, and refresh your memory.

Post #199 SoldierDad “Simply because THIS DA didn’t have any balls to stand behind this officer’s arrest of this woman doesn’t mean that the arrest was invalid or inappropriate. “

Post #201, (Me): “So when the DA said there was NO EVIDENCE OF A CRIME, and the Rochester Police Department offered none that we know of, in your mind, the DA is a liar and a coward. Got it.”

Post #207, SoldierDad: “About time. You sure take long enough to allow facts to sink in.”
