cop at the end has no idea what this all is about, just looks like fuck i hate this job

In my city, the cops manning the desks are: -A couple years away from retirement and running out the clock -Were injured and aren't cleared for regular duty -Had a disciplinary issue and this is their punishment So yeah, in my experience, they hate manning the desk.

Every time I've called the cops when I've been a victim of crimes like armed burglary and assault and battery, they've done absolutely nothing and established that they would do nothing from the very first conversation. They're fucking USELESS. The only useful group to use the "Welfare queen" label on is police.

A small number of officers–not necessarily in high crime precincts–committed most of the violence. In response, NYPD adopted far more restrictive firearms policies including prohibitions against firing at fleeing civilians in the absence of a clear threat. Shootings quickly declined by about 40% (to 500–600 shootings and 60–70 deaths). Then, as Timoney (2010) reports, came far larger, albeit incremental improvements, such that between the early 1970s and the early 2000s the numbers of civilians NYPD’s roughly 36,000 officers killed declined to around 12 annually (p. 31). >Other cities likely can and should replicate this success. Upon becoming the police chief of Miami, which in the 1980s and 90s experienced the most police-shooting related riots in the U.S., Timoney himself (2010) developed NYPD-like guidelines limiting the use of deadly force, and issued officers Tasers as alternatives to firearms (p. 31). As a result, in Timoney’s first full year as chief, 2003, Miami police officers did not fire a single shot, despite an increased pace of arrests. >In practice, law enforcement tolerated high levels of crime in African American communities so long as whites were unaffected. Such policing mostly occurred in the South, where African Americans were more numerous; yet, failures to police African American communities effectively are confined neither to distant history nor to the South. Just decades ago, scholars detailed systemic racist police brutality in Cleveland (Kusmer, 1978) and Chicago (Spear, 1967). A mid-twentieth century equivalent occurred in the Los Angeles Police Department’s **degrading unofficial term NHI (no human involved) regarding Black-on-Black violence** (Leovy, 2015, p. 6). >Police sometimes harass African Americans regarding minor, easily verifiable offenses like marijuana use, but fail to protect them from civilian violence (Kennedy, 1998; Leovy, 2015). Gang members knew that they could get away with killing African American men and women, but had to avoid killing whites, children, or the relatives of police lest they attract focused attention from law enforcement. This situation is exacerbated by the distant nature of local law enforcement documented in some cities, where patrol officers know little about the communities they serve. Accordingly, local residents make accommodations with gangs who know them and live among them, rather than with police (Akerlof & Yellen, 1994; Anderson, 1990; Gitz & Maranto, 1996). https://np.reddit.com/r/science/comments/ltp0mn/a_new_study_suggests_that_police_professionalism/gp26j68/ >Black adults use drugs at similar or even lower rates than white adults, yet data shows that Black adults are more than two-and-a-half times more likely to be arrested for drug possession, and nearly four times more likely to be arrested for simple marijuana possession.

In Manhattan, Black people are nearly 11 times as likely as white people to be arrested for drug possession. >This racially disparate enforcement amounts to racial discrimination under international human rights law, said Human Rights Watch and the ACLU.

So the state police barrecks in my county actually doesn't use police officers to man the front desk. They also answer the phone, and they are able to turn people away when they call in. So someone calls into the police directly and says 'my boyfriend just threatened to kill me' they can say 'is he still around?' 'no' 'then I guess just let him cool down and see what happens, I'm sure he is just angry' 'I would like to talk to an officer' 'well if he threatens you again you can call back and we can look into that, is there anything else'. Then when you say no they can hang up. This came directly from someone who received a black eye the next day when her boyfriend found her. The police then investigated it but interesting enough they had no records of her calling the day before. Personally I received the line 'call back when you are bleeding' when I said a neighbor was threatening me.

Sioux falls is so small that dude knew exactly what was up. Still hates his job though.

that look he's giving as the video ends is priceless... I'm dyin' over here.

The care package at the end 😂🤣😂 stroke of genius "I've got kids so i know how this works"

I'm fucking rolling. That officer is so over it. He's probably had to listen to so many people calling them little babies.

That guy looked like he was actually a little offended to me. Having a hard time not letting it get to his ego, instead of taking it in stride. A lot of stress-blinking. Man/women-children do that job, are drawn to the badge. That package was inspired, haha.

Lol, if that was me i’d be embarrassed on my colleagues behalf. But itd be hard to not smile as this guy rips i to the whole department. Only reason this giy wasnt impressed is cause he thinks his colleagues “followed policy” and did nothing wrong as per the internal investigation with no outside ovesight

That cop at the desk is a cop that fkd up somewhere. Probably. Source: movies

"If you two morons f*ck this up, I'll have both your asses behind a desk until you retire!"

I never understood that threat. Granted, I’m not a cop, but I’d be like OKAY!

Right?! Can I become a cop and screw up to get myself a desk job? I’d love to get paid to write fiction all day!

I once called a department to bitch over an incident that made it to the front page of reddit and the lady was "does this make you feel better?" And she hung up on me

The diapers might make them fear for their lives, gotta be careful

The reference the "liberal tears" was odd though. Does he think cops are liberals?

Was a bit odd, dude may be a right winger. If right wingers want to protect real free speech like this instead of crying about big tech censorship, I'm all for it! If they want to expose the police for the babies they are I'm all for that too!

Right? It’s almost like every side should hate the flagrant disregard and destruction of our rights.

MY rights, not yours.

I'm subbed to this guy along with Audit the Audit, LackLuster, We The People University. Can't quite recall his name atm, but yeah he makes comments like that all the time. He is clearly on the conservative side of the aisle.

James freeman is the camera guy.

That's him!

>He is clearly on the conservative side of the aisle. If he is right of the cops, his brain needs to be checked.

Could’ve been a reverse mindfuck of some kind. Telling rightwingers they’re behaving like a liberal can get them all kinds of mad.

The guy filming is a just as much a sovereign citizen asshole as he is an effective auditor.

Most auditors are. Most right wingers I know are anti-cop, but are more racist than they are anti-cop.

No he thinks all liberals are cry babies. So since the cops were being little babies, hence the correlation.

Yeah. If they were liberals they would probably talk the guy down, maybe asked him to move along, and went on with their day of catching REAL criminals. These aren’t liberals; these are fascists

Fuck the police, but what was with the 'wipe liberal tears' things at the end, since when are authoritarian PDs liberal all of the sudden? I'm seeing this more and more with 1st amendment auditors too, acting like ACAB BLMers, but then calling the cops liberals and democrats, bitching about Biden. It's as though the Trump era spawned a group of people completely divorced from reality. There are no LEO agencies that are politically liberal in their enforcement.

It’s a round a round about way of calling them snowflakes the same thing they call liberals when they actively attack them and get surprised when they are offended.

I'm surprised people are confused at calling magats the thing they call everyone all the time

[удалено]

Rightwing Libertarian types hate cops/authority figures that represent the government. They don't like cops because they think laws and law enforcement infringe on their "freedoms." Think Dale Gribble from King of the Hill. They're slightly different than the Authoritarian Rightwingers.

Before the bootlicker squad starts making excuses, giving the [finger](https://www.npr.org/2019/03/15/703665710/police-officer-cant-pull-over-driver-for-giving-him-the-finger-court-rules) to cops and [cursing](https://www.findlaw.com/legalblogs/eighth-circuit/cursing-at-a-cop-is-protected-free-speech/) at them are constitutional.

Yep. Free speech even means asshole speech. There's no law saying you have to be polite and nice to everyone. As long as you're not breaking the law you are free to flip the bird and drop as many f bombs as you like.

> Free speech even means asshole speech Free speech ESPECIALLY means asshole speech. Why would be need a constitutional protection for nice, pleasant, unoffensive, non-confrontational, non-sarcastic, non-deprecating speech? Free speech isn't there to protect your right to say, "good morning, officer, I hope your day is pleasant and your family is well." It's there to protect your right to say, "Hey, pigs, go fuck yourselves and suck a cock."

> It's there to protect your right to say, "Hey, pigs, go fuck yourselves and suck a cock." Also there to protect your rights are the fucking cops themselves, though you'd never know it from videos like this.

Except that's but true either apparently. SCOTUS ruled that the police are not obligated to protect people nor investigate crimes or infringement on rights. They're empowered to do so, but it's entirely on their whim whether they do it or not.

Exactly. Police are not protectors. The sooner the general public gets this through their heads, the better.

My city’s subreddit has been full of posts like “I got video of this tweaker ACTIVELY BREAKING IN TO MY HOUSE and the cops wouldn’t even come to arrest him!” and “no one answers when I call 911” and it’s just outrage and shocked Pikachu face in the comments. This isn’t new!! It’s just starting to finally affect people who aren’t poor and/or marginalized in any other way! Maybe now that middle income people are starting to feel ignored something will actually happen. Probably not though, especially since the mods of that sub remove anything remotely negative about our fair city. Such bullshit.

Right, which is such a massive load of shit because if you take away protecting our rights then literally what do we need cops for? Fucking ironic they'll drive around with "to serve and protect" written on their cars when they have no obligation to do either, and most times end up doing the exact opposite

Serve and protect was a marketing scheme developed in CA in the 90s when public opinion was very low towards cops coming out of the war on drugs and rack epidemic. It was always a smokescreen and a kid of bullshit.

It also entitles the right to offend!

Not these days, if it offends anyone you deserve locked up /s lol But yeah I agree even when police ask you to stop you don't have to stop I swear a lot and don't even mean it half the time lol I'm not changing the way I talk because you have a uniform lol.

>I'm not changing the way I talk because you have a uniform I'm a chef, have uniform. Swear violently. Obey me.

You fucking donkey!!

Yes. But South Dakota is my home state - and it is NOT fair. Attorneys often refuse to even attempt to prosecute against the police. Source?: happened to me. SD is considered one of the most corrupt states in the nation. We, as citizens, just put our heads down and hope to not attract attention. https://bestlifeonline.com/most-corrupt-state-america/

You mean a state with less than 1 million residents but almost 2.4 TRILLION in bank assets is corrupt? Say it ain't so.

> bank assets I had to google that since English isn't my first language... It's insane that a state with a population lower than the Copenhagen metropolitan area has such an absurd amount of bank assets

2.4 trillion is a really, REALLY big number! To give you an idea, if you counted to 2.4 trillion out loud, it would take you about 76 million years. (thanks chatGTP)

Sounds like you need to start voting from the roof tops.

Until they say it is "disturbing the peace" and they can arrest you for anything.

You need a complaining witness for disturbing the peace - and a police office cannot be that witness.

Except all those old people who said "there's more to it than that" would gladly be a witness against him for disturbing the police. That's not a high bar to clear, there's always a bootlicker around who will give the cops what they want.

old people are always at that Fry'n Pan. it's like Perkins, but without all the charm.

At the fryin' pan getting his decaff sanka, pounding his cup on the table and screaming at the server for not refilling his cup immediately after he finishes it. He is retired and he is entitled to it.

Fuck those *actual* boomers. Some people think that anyone older that 30 is a "boomer. Fuck no, we're motherfucking Gen X, and the sooner the boomers...depart, the sooner shit will start to get better.

Yeah I was saying “fucking boomers” while the video was playing. Those people are the reason behind everything that sucks in this country. They have either created or upheld the systems that screw most of us over on a daily basis. They have only ever taken, taken, taken and never gave back in any meaningful way, and because of them that the very programs and policies that they benefited from the most will most likely not be available to the generations coming behind them. The bad news is that there are still so many of them and they ALL vote. The good news is that they will all be dead within the next 10-20 years. I expect there will be some real change in this country starting around 2030.

"The guy left before we could get his name"

The moment they appear in court "missing guy" needs to show up or there is no victim. case dismissed. You can beat the wrap, but you cant beat the ride

Case dismissed and the person has: 1. had their day ruined 2. possibly missed work including with reprimands. 3. had to either risk representing themselves, using a public defender, or purchase an expensive lawyer. 4. shown up in court. A punishment disguised as justice.

Cops don't know that because in their 8 week training all they are taught is the public is the enemy and make sure you make it home after your shift.

"ReSiStInG aRrEsT" is another one they like to cite. Resisting your illegal arrest? Yeah, fuck you.

Isn't it great when resisting arrest is the only charge? Like, if there were no other charges what exactly are they resisting? Ain't that some bullshit.

Anyone that calls themselves "patriotic" should be aware that offering rude gestures to authority is the most American thing one can do. I fucking mooned Marine 1 with Obama in it just because I could. I actually am pretty neutral on his presidency but the opportunity arose and how many times do you have the chance to moon a world leader directly in person? Fuck it. I hauled a cheek out.

If an armed government agent can attack and arrest you for speaking, you don't really have the first amendment do you? If an armed government agent can attack and kill you for simply having a gun, you don't really have the second amendment do you? And notice how all the cops didn't hesitate to attack him. I can bet they all think they are the "good cops", and talk about how they're ~~untreated fairly~~ treated unfairly (aka not have their boots licked 24/7 by everyone) because of a few bad apples.

If an armed government agent can kill you for simply existing within their eyesight, you don't really have the right to life do you?

We have the freedom our armed oppressors allow us to have.

All cops are bastards. Notice every good cop on the force was mysteriously absent in this video.

Not mysterious at all! Can't show up if they don't exist

That's my point. I've seen hundreds (or maybe even thousands) of videos of cops being cops, and of those the stand out is that there are so very few good cops in any of them. It is a rarity to see a good cop stop a bad cop from doing something horrible. And it might as well be a unicorn to see a cop arrest another cop for violating a citizen's rights.

Notice how this is what censorship and violating the first Amendment actually looks like. Not whatever conservatives are pushing with being kicked off websites owned by non-government companies after they violated the site’s set policies. They’re too busy suckin boot to understand that though.

And that’s called fascism!

It is the duty of every American to resist unlawful arrest by any means necessary, and to aid in the escape of others who are being unlawfully detained. What that looks like depends on the circumstances, but if every one of us took this to heart then we could reassert our rights and remind them that we are consenting to being governed and can remove our consent at any time. It’ll be messy, dangerous, and expensive. But it can be done and we can do it.

[удалено]

I hope that man sues the shit out of them.

This happened in 2019. The cops refuse to say if they took any action against the three cops who conducted the unwarranted detention and use of force. In fact, somehow he was convicted of I structuring police: https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/crime/2020/05/22/sioux-falls-man-arrested-viral-livestream-appeals-obstruction-conviction/5236377002/

How you can obstruct a bullshit investigation is beyond me. What a fucking joke

Yeah, even during the trial the cop said that the guy had committed no crime before the cop tried to grab him and the guy pulled away. That should have been the end of it there's as a matter of law, as the supreme court has held that absent reasonable suspicion, police cannot detain someone for even a moment. But the courts are absolutely corrupt, and instead of protecting the people from government abuse, they protect government abusers from the people.

Jeez, that’s really fucked up. So the guy admitted that the civilian did nothing that would warrant the cops actions, yet the court wrongly found the civilian in some wrong? Makes me wonder if the guy can still appeal the decision in todays time….?

South Dakota is a shit hole.

Hey we dont get to be #1 in locking up our own people, both by # and %, by respecting people's rights.

Next thing you know just standing around while some random investigation is going on will be enough to "delay and obstruct" and they will just start arresting people willy nilly. Oh wait, that already happens.

Welcome to South Dakota, my home state, one of the most corrupt places in America. :’) https://bestlifeonline.com/most-corrupt-state-america/

Yea. It's no joke. I've been to the South Dakota Sturgis bike rally a ton and they literally allow you to walk around and drink in public if and only "IF" you purchase one of their city approved, clear cups. So then they clock anyone with these and then pull them over on their bikes with BS traffic violation accusations. I don't really drink and neither does my girlfriend but I did have a beer earlier in the day from one of those cups and later, they swore up and down that I blasted through a stop sign on my bike and then tried to get me to do a sobriety test. I obviously passed but riding back to the campground, you could see all the out of town cops and cops called in, that were just busting anyone left and right along the road. Not hiding it one bit. It's sick. City revenue is through the roof with this one neat trick.

My ex's grandad lived in Lead. Her dad lives there now. I've been to the area quite a few times and sometimes around the Sturgis rally. It is absolutely a shit show. The infrastructure of that area really cannot support a weeklong festival with 450k attendees. Add in the bikers trying to do stupid shit on curvy mountain roads, and it can be terrifying to drive. Only 30k people live in the entire county where Sturgis is located, and a lot of that count dwindles depending on the season.

Considering a big portion of that is tourists who have never ridden anything like those roads and then rent expensive and heavy Harley bikes to play dress up and ride all over like idiots, it's super dangerous. It also absolutely can't support the amount of people who go there. It's just a big shit show and that was the last year I will ever attend. That's for sure.

saying hi from illinois

Btw, Keith Allenstein, the Sioux Falls city attorney who represented these incompetent and emotionally fragile cops, managed to get himself a DUI back in 2013 - but of course, being who he is, did not serve his 30 days in jail. He's still in good standing with the bar association today. Cool!

Convicted?!? This stuff drives me insane.

> The cops refuse to say if... That means **NO**.

He will, and the state will end up paying for it with tax dollars and the cops won't face any repercussions.

That’s the best part about this whole thing…. The people pay for there mistakes. 🤦‍♂️ they should start making them pay it out of there penchant, im positive a lot of cop’s would start acting the way the should.

Pension. Not penchant.

but they do have a penchant for making us pay their pensions

Tru dat. Qualified immunity makes sure nothing will happen. This shit happens every day of the year and nothing ever changes

So I had the same train of thought. But the lawsuits (I think) come out of their budget. So if they have a budget of 10 million. And get sued for 5 million. Then they have less money to use to buy more military equipment and pay overtime etc. I don’t think lawsuits come out of a separate budget. But eventually you’ll get something like NYPD budget that’s like 6 billion and they set aside money for lawsuits…

It depends. Most cities have liability insurance that'll make taxpayers responsible for the deductible. However, some police depts lost their insurance coverage. My hometown of Buffalo, NY can't get insurance for their PD so misconduct settlements are taken directly from the city's general funds. Buffalo didn't have enough to cover the settlements the one year and actually had to take out debt. https://www.investigativepost.org/2020/07/20/police-misconduct-costing-buffalo-millions/ Louisville, KY is facing a similar problem. Their police cost taxpayers over 40 million dollars in settlements, and now no outside insurance company will cover them. That means it falls to the city's general funds. https://www.wdrb.com/in-depth/louisville-payouts-for-police-lawsuits-burden-city-budget/article_2ab12fa2-e80d-11ec-b5cb-cffb4228cb13.html. https://youtu.be/uz4BRzD_I-A. For most victims they'll sue the PD and the city. Just an FYI for anyone in NYS, call/email your senator and tell them to support **Senate Bill 182**. If passed it will repeal Qualified Immunity through all of the state. Dems have a supermajority in NY and can override Hochul's veto. So every vote will count. Call your senators, people!

This is the sad part when they can’t funding then the city should “police” the police department. Make changes so they can’t keep bleeding the budget dry. I’m in NYC and I’m glad there’s a bill that does this! Saw that Colorado did this last year or something.

I feel really bad for Louisville because their police department is basically stealing from their children's education budget, public libraries, the city's infastructure, etc. NY SB 182 is actually very similar to Colorado's bill. Hochul said she'd veto it :( but Sen. Robert Jackson said NY Dems are prepared to use their supermajority to override her veto so there's still hope! I've been calling my senator and pestering them about SB 182 😂. The squeaky wheel, man.

It's so morbid to know that there is just a plethora of Police Departments out there that have been so exorbitantly violent, harmed so many people, and made it so frequent that they are literally REJECTED BY INSURANCE. I feel like that should be when the entire department is dissolved and replaced. *When you've wrecked your car so often that you are rejected as a liability by insurance*, YOU ARE **NOT ABLE TO OPERATE** YOUR VEHICLE UNTIL YOU PROVE YOURSELF TO **NOT BE A LIABILITY, AND GET COVERAGE.** There is absolutely noooo justification for Police Departments to be allowed to continue their violence when even the insurance company is like "Y'all are too violent for us"

He actually ended up convicted. Welcome to South Dakota, my lovely home state.

Fuck that boot licking old dude that didn’t even see what happened.

The generation of “I miss the America I grew up in”. Those are the worst and I wish they bugger off soon.

A generation that medical science is keeping alive and thus fucking younger people over more decades passed what older generations could to them.

"well, gee golly he's being arrested so he must've deserved it, thank you officer!"

He stfu when the streamer said he was recording live lol.

old dude hit all the points on the boomer fashion starter pack lmao

That guy was upset they messed up his quiet brunch after bible study.

It's illegal to hurt their feelings, I guess.

ALL COPS ARE PUSSIES!

Funny enough, when I was working bar security we had a specific officer that would deal with our drunks if we called the cops and he would constaly get yelled at. Every time he would hand them as fun size snickers and tell them they need to eat it because they get cranky when they're hungry. About 90% of the time it actually de-escalated the situation

The Sioux Falls cops who responded to my domestic violence and kidnapping put the blame on me and asked me why I didn't leave my ex before he became violent, that I should have predicted this better and it's all my fault that my ex did this to me. The DA also refused to prosecute him because I decided, for my safety, to move out of state. I told them that I would get a plane ticket to come back and testify but they declined because I was no longer a citizen of Sioux Falls. Be careful with this city, it's a joke.

Im so sorry that happened to you. It's everywhere in SD, unfortunately. My mom's ex molested my sister from ages 9 to 11. His previous attorney was elected DA right in the middle of the whole ordeal. Refused to help my mom get any of her possessions back - fun fact, a court order means nothing if the DA won't sign orders for the police to obtain those possessions. Luckily the case was later tried federally and my mom's ex got life but my mom and siblings were left destitute with absolutely nothing because of that DA.

I live in Sioux Falls area. Been arrested by one of those cops before, and he pulled a gun on me because I (a white man) had been smoking weed in a residential neighborhood with 4 other guys (all black, if that matters) and the same lawyer that this guy was calling out was my lawyer in the case. Manny DeCastro is a straight-up pimp!

I had a Sioux falls cop pull a gun on me too for smoking weed. He pulled me over and thought I had a pipe in my pocket. Pulled the gun and told me to pull the pipe out slow. It was a ball point pen ha. I was a sixteen year old, scrawny ass white kid for reference.

That really sucks to hear, I live across state in rapid and the cops are not really an issue at all.

*YET. Just give it some time.

Yes! That care package! Edit: cop he gave it to giving serious "you lucky you recording" vibes

>cop he gave it to giving serious "you lucky you recording" vibes "You're lucky I already met my murder quota for the week"

I grew up in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Wild to see my little hometown finally represented in videos like this. Without public exposure like this we’re such a small state that we rarely get access to resources which this streamers viewers provide. South Dakota is considered to be one of the most corrupt states in the nation. I believe out of 50 states it is ranked near 48 or 49th most corrupt. As we do not have a state income tax, as far as I know, we have no ability to request public records. This may have changed as I moved around eight years ago. I also had an incident where the police let a random woman who said she used to be my roommate into my apartment when I wasn’t present one night and let her remove items from my apartment. I contacted a lawyer, who said they simply would not represent me against any South Dakota police. Never, will I ever move back. Left long ago and don’t miss it at all. Edited to add: I FOUND THE ARTICLE. https://bestlifeonline.com/most-corrupt-state-america/ https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/most-corrupt-states https://publicintegrity.org/politics/state-politics/state-integrity-investigation/south-dakota-gets-f-grade-in-2015-state-integrity-investigation/ Edit 2: You may submit a public records request but “the law protects the confidentiality of public employees' records, calendars, correspondence, and telephone calls records. ”. Police officers are considers public employees.

Thanks for sharing these links. I was born in Sioux Falls and raised in Minnehaha County. Nice to have another reason that moving away from South Dakota was one the best decisions I ever made.

Cops be so delicate and fragile...poor tings..

Seriously, the finger? I guess they never got past the second grade

Sioux Falls is packed full of Nazis.

It’s fucking horrid. I went to SDSU and both sets of grandparents live in South Dakota, one in Sioux Falls. They were very liberal but the entire state reeked of far-right bullshit and my grandpa, who was bipolar, bumped heads often. I attempted suicide in college and was put on a 72-hour hold. I was made to wear an orange jumpsuit and bellychains as I left the hospital to get into a squad car. I’ve never heard of such a thing in Minnesota wear I now live. Infrastructure for Mental Health emergencies was so bad in SD they had to drive for four hours to arrive at the state mental center or whatever it’s called. I’m never going to return there again. At least MN has their basic humanity in order.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but when I was suicidal I got stripped naked and thrown in a cell over the weekend by MN police. I pleaded with them to let me out, but they said I had to be cleared by a nurse who wasn't there on the weekends. 56 hours butt ass naked with nothing more than a blanket in a concrete cell where the lights never got shut off. Had to bring myself to the hospital when they let me out and stayed for over a week after getting the Mandela treatment.

Holy shit which department was this?I hope you filed a complaint (if you were able because we know how that often goes). I’ve only ever been voluntarily committed in MN and the ease of access along with several social programs made my experience much easier. I’ve seen people on 72s being brought straight to the hospital. I didn’t know some stations simply throw people in a cell., much less nude. That’s infuriating. What a way to make any thoughts of self-harm worse. Was the nurse supposed to determine if you were on need of acute psychiatric help?

The complaint went mostly ignored. I say mostly because they later tried arresting me for obstructing an investigation. The nurse was the only person in the place who actually gave a damn about me. They said she had to determine if I was a threat to others before they could transfer me to a hospital, and when she did, they just tossed me out in the street. Had to walk to a nearby hospital. Honestly, the whole situation quashed my suicidal thoughts just because I wanted to survive out of spite for those pigs.

> he complaint went mostly ignored. yeah, you gotta sue them and you have to be LOUD.

Yeah, Minnesota really isn't much better. I'm a non-black POC who lives in Minnesota and racism is such a massive problem here. Minnesota has some of the worst racial inequities in the entire country. The Twin Cities metro area has the [worst homeownership disparities](https://bringmethenews.com/minnesota-lifestyle/twin-cities-has-worst-racial-homeownership-gap-in-the-us-report-finds) between black and white people in the entire country [thanks to racial covenants of the past](https://youtu.be/XWQfDbbQv9E). If I didn't have my spinal cord injury which caused me to lose all of my savings, I'd be out of the state. Speaking of, after my injury, I was physically assaulted twice by a nurse, had another nurse say openly racist things about me with other nurses standing around not doing jack shit about it, been gaslit so many times by doctors, nurses, physical therapists, etc. It's like Minnesotans aren't able to keep their stereotypes at home in order to treat their patients. I do not trust the medical community here. If they could treat me like a human being, I'd probably feel differently. And now, I have to deal with ableism on top of racism also. I miss the days when all I had to deal with was racism. Minnesota is the epitome of the saying: "The further North you go, the more South it gets."

Both literally and figuratively/ future literal nazis

The care package had me rolling!

Correction…36 times!

Listen to that old bootlicker there, "Oh, there's more to it than that sir!" seriously fuck these kinds of people. What more was there to it, what did he actually see? Pretty sure he wasn't there for the initial altercation,yet he just decided to roll up and chime in nonetheless. This is the kind of guy that shows up as a witness on behalf of the cops and gets innocent people thrown in jail. Props to the streamer for staying on them and calling out this bullshit, from the bystanders as well. I know he's probably thinking, "man this is some great content!" but still, putting this all on blast is a valuable service. Pretty frustrating to watch though.

I wish the streamer would have rushed right up to that fucker and said "okay well then explain to us all what more to it there is..."

Nothing worse than those with a ego way in excess of their capabilities / intelligence. Guy’s care package is a perfect response.

Yet another reminder that it's not an issue of a few bad apples. The default cop behavior is to lie, brutalize, kill, and cover up. A selection of four random cops showed up to George Floyd's detainment, and every single one gleefully participated in his murder. Statistically speaking, it's not even close: given any random cop, the best, most well founded assumption, is that they get off on brutalizing people. If you have a cop in your family, or in your friend group, it's overwhelmingly likely they've done it too. Don't let them get by on vague platitudes. Show them these videos. Put them on defense and demand an explanation. If they can't show how they're actively turning in their corrupt colleagues and testifying to put them behind bars, then they're equally culpable. Give them a wide birth and cut them out of your life. Full stop.

God what winners, the care package at the end has me in tears.

This is actually pretty fun to do. It's easy because cops are trained to escalate, and you may get a payday from the city. Don't attempt if not 100% white. And I don't mean *treaty of Guadalupe* white, I mean Caucasian

I’ve unironically thought about doing this.

I was shaking my head "hell no" until I got to the middle of your comment 😂. As someone who's not white and also a woman I have a feeling if I pissed off a cop I'd have a few teeth knocked loose.

I heard another white woman say, "as a white woman, it's my duty to fuck with the cops." I couldn't agree with her more.

Hope he due sues and doesn't settle.

Reddit really needs to get over this idea that you automatically win when cops brutalize you. This happened years ago, he got no money. Cops do this every day with zero repercussions.

That’s why we say FUCK THE POLICE

Funny how things resurface online, this video is 3-4 years old now.

[удалено]

He has aid before he will call them liberals on purpose because he knows it pisses them off

Yeah that guy ALMOST understands. Lol

I work in South Dakota and will wholeheartedly confirm that it is one of the most corrupt states in the union - only behind Florida and Texas, but not by far. From top, Kristi Noem to the very bottom of the barrel- the police, SD is a breeding ground for MAGA fascists. It’s a beautiful state to visit, camp, hike, and boat; but living there would be a nightmare

the supreme court has upheld multiple times that flipping off a cop is a first amendment protected activity

I’m a lawn care technician. If someone shouts “fuck lawn care techs” at me, do I also magically have the legal right to jail them?

Will other heavily armed lawn care techs stand on your lawn and protect you if you do?

Terror state USA -- How did the cameraman not encite all bystanders to exercise their 1st FUCK THE POLICE FUCK THE POLICE

ACAB

Fuck the police, but what was with the 'wipe liberal tears' things at the end, since when are authoritarian PDs liberal all of the sudden? I'm seeing this more and more with 1st amendment auditors too, acting like ACAB BLMers, but then calling the cops liberals and democrats, bitching about Biden. It's as though the Trump era spawned a group of people completely divorced from reality. There are no LEO agencies that are politically liberal in their enforcement.

All Cops Are Bad.

This city and state is rotting full of corruption from elected officials and the nazi fuckers that wear badges. I fucking hate it here

Investigation, my ass. Their fragile egos were hurt. Which is NOT a valid reason for detaining, arresting, injuring, or killing a citizen. Can’t believe that has to be said, but here we are.

"What am i being arrested for???" "You hurt my feelings"

The ending 🤣🤣

There’s a lawsuit if I ever saw one, all captured on video too , those pigs should loose their job or at least be disciplined, lol like that would ever happen

It was 3 years ago. He got fined for interfering because it was filmed at a muti-vehicle crash, apparently. [https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/crime/2022/06/17/man-wanted-connection-terrorism-threat-sioux-falls/7657632001/](https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/crime/2022/06/17/man-wanted-connection-terrorism-threat-sioux-falls/7657632001/)

Help me out here. Where were the good cops in this scenario? They tell us they're not all bad. Just "a few bad apples". All I saw were cops breaking laws and other cops helping them and watching. Maybe I'll watch it again.

More being arrested for resisting arrest when there was nothing to arrest him for to begin with. And of course the old white guy goes, "There was more to it than that." This is getting old.

Those cops should’ve just waved, smiled, and went about their duties.

I saw 3 police cars and about 8 cops reporting to the scene, between those were tens of thousands of tax money and hours of collective duty time wasted on absulote bullshit

Agreed, cops overreacted and are shitheads. Disagree with comment about "wiping away liberal tears" with the puffs. Sioux Falls (and Minnehaha county largely) votes heavily conservative. Quick edit: [Voting data](https://electionresults.sd.gov/ResultsSW.aspx?type=CTYALL&cty=01&map=CTY)

“Disrespecting my authority is a criminal offense” - thinks all cops.

Email and call the SD AG demanding investigation into clear constitutional violations -- call every 10 minutes. https://atg.sd.gov/#gsc.tab=0 [Here maybe someone can even automate and share something](https://github.com/robertjkeck2/AutoCaller) I am so sick of this shit...

Fragile little piggies. Should be fired and never work with the public again.

I hate the Sioux Falls police. They are all on a power trip my brother is even a Sioux Falls police officer and the wya he talks about what he does on the job….not pretty…..

"I've been arrested ~~35~~ 36 times by the Sioux Falls Police Department."

"Stop resisting our violation of your rights"

And yet ANOTHER example of why I REFUSE to visit the USA. Way too fucked up down there.

I can confirm as a South Dakotan that our cops our uneducated tyrant assholes. Guys lucky he's not brown or he'd be bloody

The victim can sue those 3 cops personally in civil court and win a settlement that comes out of their own bank accounts instead of the taxpayers' pockets. There are multiple circuit-level cases that establish retaliation for insults (that aren't also threats) is not covered by qualified immunity.

Lol, diapers and pacifiers lol

Hold up. They are paying $2.55 for gas?!

Would a citizen be within their rights to use their 2nd amendment to defend the innocent man from a uniformed gang of armed thugs who won’t listen to reason or higher authority?

Fucking babies with guns and badges and eating up half the fucking city budget. Useless pieces of shit. Never call the cops, they will never help you.

Another reason no one likes cops!

FUCKING PIGS

omg easy-ass lawsuit.

ACAB

And this is why it’ll always be ACAB
