Swarm of ‘wannabe thugs’ caught on camera trashing police cruiser with Virginia cop trapped inside in out-of-control ‘street takeover’

A swarm of “masked tough guy wannabe thugs” trapped a Virginia cop inside her patrol car as they jumped on the hood and tore it apart — before one driver mowed down another cop who was coming to her aid.

Shocking bodycam video from the out-of-control “street takeover” showed hundreds of people retaliating against the officers for breaking up their 3 a.m. Sunday car meet-up, according to Fairfax County police.

“I’ve got a huge crowd. They’re hitting the car,” the distressed officer can be heard saying as she radios for backup.

So is this how it ends?
No one will stop them?

If society had the will, it could stop this. Easily.

It just doesn’t have the will.

She should have called for backup and got out of the care and arrested them. That’s her job.

Do you have a pistol? Do you have an accelerator? Be a cop for god’s sake.

I can’t understand why anyone wants to be a copy in a democrat city. The larger the city, the worse it is

Obama and his DOJ organized a political movement to persecute and neuter America’s 3000+ independent police and sheriffs departments, and put them under DOJ control. BLM and “I can’t breathe” were the street destabilization operation moving this bureaucratic effort forward

Local woke/Democrat politicians still are running this playbook.

Serious question...

Why didn't she simply start unloading her pistol and shotgun into these attackers?

As Kevin Costner said in the "Untouchables": "Shoot a couple and I guarantee you the rest will run away".

Cops today have two professional goals. Work until you get a pension and don't join Derek Chauvin in prison.

Arrest people? Why bother? The DA is just going to drop the charges.

You have a weapon, officer. I suggest you use it.

So 3 am, a single female cop is sent out to break up a swarm of thugs with cars?

Was that really a good idea?

Because an officer knows their career, reputation and freedom could well end with that?

When my daughter was in the police academy (not saying when or where) she told me one of the other recruits asked about what to do when they could not get to their gun because of the seat belt.

The instructor said, you are driving a 3,000 pound weapon. (dumb ass implied)

Society has a will. But it doesn’t want to have that special relationship with the criminal justice system.

Civic virtue flew out the window during the industrial revolution.

Amen!

Delete the ones on the left, cancel the ones on the right, and install a new aperture in the ones on the hood.
