No, she escalated it by refusing to comply with his order.
If you behave like a horse’s ass to a cop, chances are it isn’t going to go well for you.
Sorry, but that is the way of this world.
Horse’s ass woman is still a horse’s ass.
Well not really anymore, but she was.
He is issuing her a ticket for a routine traffic violation. Suddenly he orders her out of the car.
Why? What was the probable cause for ordering her out of the car?
None.
What was the reasonable suspicion?
NONE.
All he had to do was issue the stinking ticket. THE COP ESCALATED and had no reason to order her out of the car except to be a Dictator and throw his weight around. To command a person who was not treating him with respect just to DEMAND respect from her. You know the game.
People say she was resisting arrest. Well, what cause did the idiot cop have for arresting her in the first place? Because she wouldn’t sign the ticket. He never gave her a chance. He went straight to “put out your cigarette”. Because like any power mad dictator, he gave her a command just to control her.
Dictator cop was completely out of line and escalated the situation. All he had to do was drop the ticket in her lap and say “good day mam”.
Done. End of story. Instead dictator cop goes on a power binge. Why? Because he can and he knows a lot of people like you support his abuse of power, just out of your respect for police generally.
