All he had to do was stay inthe car, but he chose the aggressive, confrontational route. T cops could not allow him to drive the truck with expired plates but he thought the law didn't apply to him. And then he started to calm down and comply. I've been pulled over with expired plates before and was given a warning. Interestingly enough I was pulled over by a native cop from the reserve down the road from my place. We'd worked together in the bush as loggers in the past so maybe that's what made the difference.

betsy Posted June 14, 2020 Author Report Posted June 14, 2020 If the chief was intoxicated - the first cop was most likely taking that into a great deal of consideration thus we see his patience with Allan.

scribblet Posted June 14, 2020 Report Posted June 14, 2020 He didn't look like he was calming down to me, and he was busy rummaging through the truck for something - what? You wouldn't be allowed to do that if you were pulled over. Hey Ho - Ontario Liberals Have to Go - Fight Wynne - save our province
Rue Posted June 15, 2020 Report Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) I agree with Scribblet. I see no evidence of the Chief calming down in his physical actions. The assumption he was calming down can not be concluded by the physical movement alone and since the Chief did not say anything his intent could not be ascertained that way either. What is clear is that in the final incident the Chief exited the vehicle after re-entering it on the officer in question's blind side, then suddenly appearing from the officer's blindside and quickly penetrating the space around the officer entering his danger zone. Danger zone in police training is a proximity in physical distance to an officer that once entered is considered an immediate life threat in need of immediate neutralization. Officer's are taught once thedanger zone is penetrated the officer must take immediate action to repel and then subdue the penetrator and not stop until the invader is immobilized and handcuffed. What can be seen is that the Chief upon penetrating the danger zone triggered the officer to then reach for the Chief's arm to either initiate physical contact to repel penetration of the danger zone and/or an initial attempt to take the Chief's arm to facilitate handcuffing. The tape shows the Chief only turning from the officer once he already entered the danger zone and once the officer began contact with his arm. The officer whose danger zone was penetrated had not patted down the suspect earlier for weapons but saw him re-enter the vehicle twice including from a blind spot o the other side of the vehicle.This would mean the officer could not conclude the Chief did not have a weapon or re-entered the vehicle to get one after two earlier attempts to demand the officer fight with him were ignored by the officer. The second officer off screen answering a call that an officer needed assistance would not know the extent and nature of the need of assistance and would be trained to assume a life threatening situation was imminent until it could be determined otherwise explaining why on seeing the Chief in the danger zone then turning from the other officer trying to hold his arm, would have been trained to see an imminent threat to life and therefore initiated the swift intervention predicated on the belief the Chief may have had a weapon he was preparing to use or in the alternative was resisting and preparing to engage in further physical force.Further The first officer like the second would have been trained to believe the turning from initial contact was resistance and his then walking away could be a preparation to pull out a knife, gun or other weapon. Police officers are trained to defend their lives one the danger zone is penetrated. They are trained once someone penetrates the danger space to bring the invader down and do not stop or get distracted until the assailant is immobilized and secured from attacking. The tape shows the Chief: 1- conducting a public disturbance and engaging in disorderly conduct by swearing at the police officer and uttering numerous threats ; 2- engaging in repeated interference/ obstruction of an officer attempting do his lawful duty; 3-- attempting to coerce police by threatening to use the Chief's political powers to sanction him for doing his job; 3- assault and battery, resisting arrest. This was a lawful stop on an expired license with the vehicle parked at the angle it was to facilitate maximum camera My comments are based solely on physical movement and body proximity. The only reason this is news is because it's a Chief claiming his status allows him to act like an ass. If he was white and a politician no one would care. The Chief's status or creed should not be used to justify his bad behaviour. Edited June 15, 2020 by Rue

The chief said something like "Don't f**ing grab me!" and was pulling away. They weren't walking together. The Chief was pulling away and the cop was coming with him. It wasn't an actual resistance. They made the few steps towards the same direction. Perhaps, being the chief that he is - Allan didn't want to be held like a criminal - people were watching - but he seemed to have calmed down and willing to cooperate, and the first cop seemed to understand that - there was no visible combative response from the first cop regarding that statement "don't f***ing grab me!" He seemed to be handling the situation cool-headedly, and quite well. There was no need for the second cop to slam into him. All he had to do was be there to assist should there be any problem. It was the second cop that escalated it. We have to call out unnecessary brutality when we see it! It's for everyone's benefit - including the cops!

The 2nd cop is who turned this into a shit show. Why is it clear? It also appears he was pulling away from the officer trying to subdue him as he swore at the officer after police penetrating the officer's danger zone. How is swearing reluctant resignation and not a sign of resistance? Was he pulling away or pushed? Officers do not push to arrest or subdue in fact the exact opposite. They have been taught to pull in the assailant body and bend the first limb they can get to use leverage of their own body to use their weight and gravity to pull the suspect down. As well your scapegoating the second officer selectively ignores that officer's training and the behaviour of the assailant as if that officer acted in a vacuum. That officer received an officer needs assistance call and was taught to not assume or remain dettached but upon seeing a fellow officer's danger zone penetrated move as quickly as possible to immobilize the assailant. He had an impaired view. He could not see if the Chief had a weapon but he would have heard the Chief swearing and an impaired view of the Chief turning away from the officer. It would take a split second after turning for the Chief to pull out a knife or gun and kill the officer in his danger zone. That second officer could not assume otherwise. The second officer is not trained to wait because that could be a fatal mistake. He was following his training. If you penetrate an officer's danger space they are taught to subdue, immobilize and handcuff and not stop until the suspect is rendered fully cuffed. With due respect Eye you do not understand what a danger zone is and what happens to if you penetrate it and why police are trained to react as they do when you penetrate it. I myself was forced to take down an elderly person in a crowded market. She pulled out a pair of scissors leaning towards another medic next to me. No I had no time to assume or ask. Uniforms trigger behaviour. The danger zone was penetrated. No I did not as you selectively suggest ignore someone in a danger zone. No the scissors were not meant for a haircut. No I did not ask the lady why she did what she did. She was quickly taken away. The entire incident was like 5 seconds. You do not have time to stand as you suggested. You immobilize then ask questions. When working in a mental insitution as an orderly I was not allowed to have patients penetrate the danger zone either. Its basic training.

And, I'm not saying the chief was right in his defiant stance - lol, that karate stance was even laughable! I'm saying........................... the brutality by the second cop was unnecessary. You call it brutality because you see brutality. You can not conceive what you saw could be anything else. What you saw was a takedown something the officer was trained to do under the circumstance that arose. Any hesitation could have resulted in the other officer being killed. You assume things that police officer could not know, such as the assailant did not have a weapon or what the assailant's motives were. The last thing one does is get in and out of a vehicle continuously after being told not to. That in itself means you could have obtained a weapon. There was a lot of stupid things the Chief did that night because he lost it over a routine expired license stop and decided to try interfere. We are lucky no one was killed. The fact is his own family could not control him. Did you hear one pedestrian say to him to calm down? Everyone today grabs a cell phone as nd acts like a passive zombie. Not one person said to him calm down. Do any of us today do anything but live by the cell phone leading us by our nose? Why is that arrest even in the news? Edited June 16, 2020 by Rue
Moonbox Posted June 16, 2020 Report Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) There's no doubt the Chief behaved poorly and stupidly, but then the second officer's reaction was heavy-handed and the punch from above to the side of the chief's head, after he was down and being held by TWO much larger men was excessive. This appears to be a case of the officers getting frustrated and taking it out on the man, rather than being an appropriate response. If the training supports that use of force - for tackling a man to the ground and then punching him in the face because he's acting upset and not calmly accepting have his arms twisted behind his back, then that needs to be changed. The punch while the guy was down seals is what really frames the whole interaction. You could even argue that the tackle wasn't that bad, and they tripped up with each other when they went down. The punch is what makes it look like the second cop was out for trouble.

Infidel Dog Posted June 16, 2020 Report Posted June 16, 2020 The first officer called for backup. I'm assuming when dispatch sent the message there's a code as to what's going on and how to handle it. For example if the suspect seems willing to or is resisting arrest the message might say something like "Blah blah blah, number and street. See Adam 12. Handle code 2." That's the way it's done on the TV show I watch anyway.
Moonbox Posted June 16, 2020 Report Posted June 16, 2020 I don't think the dispatch instructed the officer to tackle the suspect and punch him in the head while he was being held down by two much larger, stronger men.

With all of this BLM hate all white cops nonsense going on these days white cops can only expect to be seen more and more as white racists these days. There have been plenty of white people that have been roughed up and arrested by white cops but yet for some unknown reason the leftist liberal lying media only want to show and try to provoke more racial tension by only showing white cops on black folk incidents.
