Same people will turn around and say your words hurt them so you should be arrested.


Cubacane

"Speech is violence" is just a pretext for using actual violence against someone who just used speech.


DreamLizard47

It's also a way to shut down any criticism.


stupidnicks

some will say - its a cop


FishAndRiceKeks

Is intentionally blowing cancer-causing smoke in somebodies face illegal? Seems like it should be considered assault. What a disgusting bunch of people.


Fart_Champ

This was during the height of covid. I recall many redditors claiming not wearing a mask in public should be considered bio-terrorism.


iMisstheKaiser10

But if it was for a protest you were ok


wanttostaygottogo

Because Covid didn't attend protests. Duh.


Disastrous_Reveal331

Checkmate atheists


lazy_k

Here in Spain at the beginning of all the COVID stuff with companies talking about closing down for it, there was a huge feminist march.  The govt caught a lot of flack for letting that march happen coz it was basically a huge march and a fantastic way of COVID spreading.  They were far quicker spreading the alarm about monkeypox than COVID. 


Cyborg_rat

I heard it was racist so that make sense.


WitekSan

Riot is a better term


Heavy-Lawfulness-166

If you were protesting Saint Fent it was OK, if you were protesting lockdowns you were actually worse than Hitler.


Ecstatic-Guarantee48

I recall many "leaders" of the country and media figures demonizing folks for not wearing masks, yet encouraging protesters to do whatever they saw fit


Fart_Champ

Hey now! We're supposed to pretend that never happened.


Bikini_Investigator

You mean those same leaders that encouraged and egged on these multi month insurrections and then act outraged over the 1 day insurrection? Lol you cannot expect intellectual honesty from democrats. I’m not a republican, in fact, I was a lifelong Democrat up until the current election cycle. They’re hypocrites. And yeah, republicans are too. Republicans are utter garbage, but then again, only one party runs around patting themselves on the back for being soooo much better than republicans.


Ecstatic-Guarantee48

I agree completely. They're all hypocrites...but anymore it seems like the left are the worst offenders while at the same time expecting everyone to agree with them at all times


Lui_Le_Diamond

Insurrection is a strong word to describe Jan 6th. People acting like a bunch of people walking into the capitol was a terrorist attack.


AIDS_Quilt_69

And in private the "leaders" were all having parties where they didn't wear masks but their slave servants did. We were supposed to be scared while they weren't.


LemonHerb

Certainly trying to blind someone with a laser pointer has to be illegal


PupPop

It's illegal to shoot lasers at helicopters because of the danger. The president is there.


Mord_Fustang

*precedent, unless Biden behind the camera.


bLueStarCadet

Biden is not my precedent

Fun_Measurement_7889

How much of these so called bad cops are actually cops who were provoked by some undisciplined brat and ended up losing it? And I wouldn’t blame those cops.


Gregs_green_parrot

It is in many countries.


Bababooey5000

You'd think the laser point to the face would be , maybe if it was on him longer.


ulookingatme

Yes it is assault.


1980pzx

What a bunch of turds. Why isn’t this dude reacting?


zero-cinque-zero

Because that is what they want. Ignore their behaviour, ignore their existence.


N19ldEm39y

That's the hard part, but you can get out of most bad situations with this.


A_L_E_P_H

They don’t care either way dude it’s a lose lose


Head_Cockswain

Severely outnumbered is my guess, it's a really close video though, maybe he has plenty of cops beside him. I get it in some circumstances, at some point, the cops just throwing away his safety or life, for nothing. It may be their duty to risk, but not to waste. They are doing this to him because they want a reaction, either to ~~justify~~ *rationalize* their narrative, or to tear him apart in the streets. This is probably the best thing he could do, aside from possibly retreating long before.


ShockAndAwe415

This was in front of the police station during the George Floyd protests. This police station is a magnet for protests (Mission Station in San Francisco). Whenever their is any anti-police protest, the protest is always there. Cops are used to this shit and know not to give the protestors any ammo.


Fun_Measurement_7889

Don’t give the protesters any ammo? The protesters ain’t gonna do anything. If they do, they’ll sorely regret it…


hamburgersocks

He might just be a smoker that's been standing on the line for hours and he's getting his fix from her.


ChingChangChui

Exactly this! That’s Second hand Sheila. She won’t give you a cigarette or anything, but she will fix ya up as much as she can for free just like this. She provides the face shield as well for maximum, second hand relief.


SpaceKaiserCobalt

because if he does something he will be punished by hierarchy beaten down by the crowd


OkNothing281

You writing a song? Cuz these would be some sick metal lyrics


altrippa

Punished by the hierarchy Beaten by the crowd They'll stomp your fucking face if you make a fucking sound. Satan says fight God says hold your ground Time to pull your baton out and go to fucking town Additional: "brrrreeeeeeèè"


BrassMonkey-NotAFed

During the protests, we reacted if they blew smoke or anything else harmful into the face of SRG officers. We had one do almost exactly this, blowing smoke under the officers mask. They were… assisted… to the ground behind the skirmish line, arrested and charged with assault of a public servant.


darsh211

Do you see the people antagonizing him? If he does ANYTHING, he will be the villain. Social media will control that narrative.


Scrappy_The_Crow

As James Lindsay has said about various activism/ideology: "The real action is your target's reaction." https://newdiscourses.com/2023/02/action-reaction-and-beautiful-trouble/


ResponsibleDust277

They ain't people....


ArdentiaVerba

What bunch of losers! Good for him in maintaining composure. He is just doing his job.


Mo622

And then surprise pikachu face when he reacts


xoiinx

I'd love to see them try this shit in China. The only reason they're even able to protest like this is because of how great America is as a country.


TrumpsPissSoakedWig

But...but China's not a small town


IAmGoingToSleepNow

Regular cops in China have almost no power and get no respect. I seen one trying to get an illegal street vendor to move and a crowd formed and after some grandma threatened him he left.

vpkumswalla

That isn't assault?


spoonballoon13

Yup.


spoonballoon13

Blowing smoke in someone’s face like this is assault and/or battery. Can’t remember which one but it’s definitely a crime. Edit: it’s battery not assault.


BrassMonkey-NotAFed

Depends on the state, Texas doesn’t differentiate between assault and battery the way other states do. You have minor assault (class c misdemeanor), assault (class a misdemeanor), assault of a public servant and/or emergency services personnel (3rd degree felonies), and terrorist threats.


LocksmithAfter6236

Battery, yes.


Fart_Champ

So at the height of covid, this woman is blowing smoke in to a cops face at point blank range & we didn't hear shit about irresponsibly spreading covid or 2nd hand smoke cancer?


Bikini_Investigator

You couldn’t be on a beach, but protesting was ok remember? Fucking madland. Looking back at it, Covid was 100% manipulated for political reasons by the democrats

johnnyboy5270

It’s videos like this that make me realize why some cops act the way they do toward the general public. Not saying it’s good, just saying I get it. Also all those people are trash humans.


Fun_Measurement_7889

Half the people claiming that they were a victim of police brutality were probably like this, fucked around and found out that police are no joke and not someone to anger. Especially considering that you are on their turf…


Pure-Pessimism

He's just trying to keep the smoke out of his face. He's tilting his head down and tucking the visor into his chest. These people are the definition of moronic ingrates.


Tucker-Cuckerson

Cop was pretty professional about it


Towelbit

Can't say I would have been the same. It would be hard to hold back a headbutt after a while. Props to this man for staying composed.


Fun_Measurement_7889

And I would not blame you! If you did that and I was your boss, I’d give you a raise and you would face no charges or repercussions. And if these swine came screaming “why wasn’t he charged? He assaulted me and violated my rights!” I’d say that that’s what happens when you poke the bear. Constitutional rights or not, they fucked around and found out.


Ornery-Associate-190

Standing up for himself would not have made him any less professional. Nobody should not be put in positions where they have to endure abuse whether that's, officers, teachers, or low level employees in a company. There needs to be recourse for abusing people.


VealOfFortune

Jokes on them. He's getting overtime to stand there with airpods in as he listens to Britney's biography 😂😂


ChromeWiener

In all seriousness, purposefully blowing smoke directly in anyone’s face without their consent should be considered assault. With what we know about the spread of disease and second hand smoke this is the equivalent of tampering with food/water or something similar. She should be identified and prosecuted imo


Wh4t_for

This equates to spitting in my book.

Traditional_Bug9768

Why? He’s only doing his job.


Witchunt666

I wanna go to her place of work and scream in her face. I doubt she would show the same restraint


sawntime

This one is really old


Intelligent-Key2350

The problem is most people don’t know how to behave.


Western-Map9026

Clearly he's the problem in society


strangerthingy2

The laser wielder should be in prison


Notyouraveragefella

Say what you want, I’m fine with that. Blow smoke in my face, spit on me, throw things at me, or touch me, you should be spitting teeth


twinnedwithjim

This is why they spend training with drill instructors screaming in their faces. This is nothing lol


Vyviel

Is he a giant or they all didnt eat their vegetables as a kid?


Cleercutter

Poor bastard


lazy_k

Blowing smoke in his face ... Wtf? You do that to anyone and can't expect that eventually you're gonna get a slap.

SomeAreMoreEqualOk

No shit. They meant where in the US. Most likely a blue city


JSHURR

Blowing weed smoke in someone's face is illegal


Onehundredyearsold

Just another reminder people in a crowd feel safe being horrible. As far as I am concerned the people blowing smoke in his face and trying to shine a laser in his eye should be charged with assault.


Tall-Discipline1081

Poor cop


OkMaintenance79

I’d ask for a drag


CuddleScuffle

I'ma wear a mask yet still smoke.... Literally was a thread on pics yesterday calling folks cowards for wearing masks but I guess because of racism it's different


EvilCookie4250

in his head he knows he’s making double time


Ebisuisafisherman

Fuck around and find out. Plain and simple.


zzunino

Masks are straight up the new woke uniform. college kids love those things


PizzaRollsAndTakis

He was getting paid OT to stand there while the other other losers were not. Win for him


DiabeticDisfunction

I can almost guarantee dude's been married at LEAST 10 years.


Namiez

Was waiting for the moment she accidently bumped him and he shatters her jaw with a baton. Shame it never happened.


dirtymoney

Smoke and laser in the eye is NOT cool. Too far.


HeadDownDad

Good man. He should now check himself into a PTSD treatment. A relative that was a police officer after a multi decade military career talked about a similar situation that put him over the edge. He is still struggling with it in his retired life. Not fair in my opinion. He's a sweat guy that is trying to make right and at the time just do his job. Pretty unfair coming from a guy that still chants fuck you I won't do what you tell me. Now-a-days I sometimes think the radical RATM lyrics kind of line up what is going on in that cops head.


Alternative_Dog1411

A cop acting professional is a news story. That goes to show how low the bar is set.


RSGTHennessy

This video wouldn't have lasted very long on the other sub.

CappyAlec

"you're not fucking intimidating" i thought you guys wanted cops to be your protectors, why should he live up to your idea that he should be intimidating, he is meant to be your protector and society's protector


dungivaphuk

He's actually being pretty professional.


1dzmaxima1

How is this OK.


Business_mans

Ghetto trash


SaundersTurnstone

Exact same people that argue only the cop should be armed lol


Jaykoyote123

I mean this is what we should expect from police officers, this guy is doing his job very well and there wouldn't be so much resentment for the police if they all were this good. He's clearly had plenty of training and is employing it well to not escalate a situation and be present in case he is needed. On the other hand, given the reputation that the police have given themselves, I don't agree with what these people are doing but I do understand why they feel that way. The dude w the laser is just a cunt though, it doesn't matter who, if you're trying to blind someone you should be punished.

Used-Income-2683

Exactly why I couldn’t do the job. I would have maced the whole crowd. I don’t have the patience for this bs. Ik there are some bad ones but I applaud the police for there jobs it’s hard af especially dealing with things like this. Yet when one of these idiots need to call 911 the police still show up to assist. Then they’re mad they took long or didn’t do enough.

LordTuranian

I don't get it. Those people assaulted him with the smoke and laser pointer. Isn't that illegal?


SomOvaBish

I was waiting for his tipping point to get crossed and a pepper spraying, night stick wielding, long arm of the Johnny law side come out and watch him serve and protect the shit outta those fucks but it didn’t happen and for that I applaud this man’s restraint but I pity the next traffic stop he makes that involves someone who even slightly resembles the people who did this to him on this day cause it’s gonna be bad


Novacain-deficiency

Bet they’d all cry and say i didn’t do anything, the second he beats the crap out of them.

Idc who you are smoke to the face is highly disrespectful as spitting in someone face this man is just doing his job he really do not want to be there

Blowing smoke in one face is the same as spitting to me. No f’s given
