      Seriously. What I have seen in literally every one of these body cam recordings is the second the supervisor or backup arrives on scene, they immediately lie through their teeth about what happened.

      If that cop had done exactly what he told the next cop he would do, this would have been a non-issue. He could have given him a ticket for each thing and made him park and walk to the DMV, and Ice-T would have parked, got his stuff in order, and paid the ticket. He only got upset once the cop said he was going to two the car, which I understand. The likelihood of his car getting damaged (not to mention the additional hassle of getting it out of impound) would have been very frustrating.

      Yeah what’s up with cops doing that? So much for protecting and SERVING the public.

      Really more of a privileged little brotherhood than anything. I bet when they look at the general public all they see is them & us.
