No, you sound like a big government lover. . I am a libertarian. I can’t stand Obama. I like Trump and Rand Paul. Most of WA is not a liberal cesspool with the exception of Seattle. And last I checked, you have the liberal cesspool of Austin.
I also believe laws should be written with common sense. Arresting someone for not signaling a lane change is oppressive, dictatorial and does not make sense.If I was a juror, I would nullify that in an instant.

Good thing you won’t be a juror. A common sense Texan will be the juror and the cop will be safe and the family won’t get nada.

Do you like people breaking into your house? No?? Then you must support laws against that. You must also be a big government lover cause I’m sure there are many thieves that hate those laws and prefer to ignore them.

None of you ramblings make any logical sense and you constantly contradict yourself.

You're dealing with someone how stated: "Law enforcement in Texas treats everyone the same". Then he alleged even if the female was the cops brother, district attorney or county supervisor, they'd all be treated the same.

I'm sorry, but that is total 100% pie in the sky.

The entire case here is not some traffic infraction, but when the cop told her to put out her cigarette.

Remember, the traffic stop was all but over. He'd ALREADY signed the warning and walked back to give it to her and then demanded she put out her cig. Total intimidating use of authority only meant to escalate the situation. It worked!

The rest is history and she ends up dead in while in their custody.

Big time lawsuits...The lone female motorist should still be alive today and on her new job.

“you sound like a big government lover. . I am a libertarian.”

I did want to point out that you claim to like small government but also stated that you’re against the ‘war on drugs’. Fair enough. I would assume then that you support legal MJ, given that you’re from WA. I don’t want to debate the war on drugs or the pros/cons of MJ since that is off topic.

However, just for your information, since the legalization of MJ in WA and CO, there are currently many more laws on the books to regulate MJ than there were outlawing MJ. Now there are laws about amounts of possession, how much you can buy, how to tax, who can sell, when they can sell, etc., etc. Previously, there were only laws against any possession. By legalizing MJ, those states have greatly expanded government because of the increased regulation and because of the increased bureaucracy that was implemented to manage those regulations. Supporters of legal MJ are pro big government or else they simply don’t understand how the real world works.

Not too mention, based on the stats released by CO last month...MJ related crime has increased, underage MJ use has increased, medical issues and ER visits related to MJ have increased, school dropout rates have increased, DUIs related to MJ have increased...and the expected taxes are not nearly as large as anticipated and do have not yet offset the increased costs listed above.
