Traffic stop-ee: "Officer, I..."
Police officer: "SHUT THE FUCK UP"
Traffic stop-ee: "I am carrying ..."
Police officer: "NOBODY IS TALKING TO YOU, SHUT UP"
Traffic stop-ee: "Officer! Here is my permit for..."
Police officer: "SAY ONE MORE WORD AND YOU ARE GOING TO JAIL"
Traffic stop-ee: "..."
[Police officer searches car, comes to driver]
Police officer: "GET OUT OF THE CAR! WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT CARD YOU KEEP WAVING AT ME?"
Traffic stop-ee: "Officer, I am carrying a concealed weapon. This is my permit."
Police officer: "YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT IMMEDIATELY! I SHOULD EXECUTE YOU RIGHT HERE AND NOW"

On video, of course.

The driver was black? Seriously, I can barely tell anything in that video...

As far as I could see, yes. Passenger more clearly so too.

Ummm.. no. The driver is pretty clearly not black.

The cops mishear the name of the *passenger*, not the driver.

And to be honest if they desperately wanted to shoot the driver? They definitely would have when he admitted to having a gun.

This was a case of an officer being scared because he realized how badly he'd fucked up the traffic stop (because he's a bit arrogant), and then reacting completely over the top when he realizes a) how he put his partner at risk, b) how badly he'd fucked up (by the numbers pretty much) and c) the dump of adrenalin in his system when he saw the gun.

Now... that still makes him the worst kind of cop, because at the very least on of the parts of police training is learning to deal with fear / adrenalin, and how not to let it make you make a mistake.

And yes I'm aware cops are only human, my brother's a captain, and it bugs the crap out of me that officers like this give him a bad name.
