Quoted: The only way a "polite command" with ambiguous terms works as an order is if we all accept that everything a cop "asks" is an order. Just realize that means no more voluntary statements and no consensual searches. That seems like a poor trade versus just stating when a thing is an order.

Uvalde was a WTF in that I never heard of school districts having their own police force, separate from the local municipality. That's a huge increment from "school resource officers" which, IMO, are also useless. Here in WI, this mostly rural township of about 30 square miles and 4000 people has a full-time police force, maybe 6 employees and about $800K/year budget. How did it get to that point? "Big city thinking", "Empire Building" and "Karenism". Comparable nearby townships with similar demographics contract with the county sheriff's department at a fraction of the cost. |

View Quote Illustration of this: I was in the chow hall at Blackwater eating lunch with members of my class and the instructors many moons ago. The class is all military guys from a couple of different units who were doing training on their own dime prior to going back to the sandbox for another round of fun and wonder. The instructors were SEALs who were between deployments picking up money. I was probably the only dude in the class who hadn't killed people. In another class there was this dude who had a SWAT tattoo. He was from some small hamlet up in the mid-west that obviously had lots of funding as he and the couple of guys he was with arrived in an absolutely striking RV looking thing decked out for SWAT stuff. I asked one of the other guys what their usual call outs were on and he said "We only had one call-out last year. None so far this year." SWAT tattoo boy was there all week and the motherfucker would yell YOU'RE EITHER SWAT OR YOU'RE NOT at seemingly random intervals like some sort of autistic kid. That guy was like that Ron White joke about the bouncers who watch Road House every night and touch themselves. He's saying that shit in a room full of Rangers, SEALs, a bunch of fed and local LE, etc. Dude was a douche and it was obvious. Real violence comes...at least if you're not a fucking psycho...from facing malevolence on the other side. That's not a lot of fun. Some guys do legitimately itch for the fight, but it's for a fight and not whipping up on somebody who is unable to present one. The BTDT types rarely get their jollies from fucking somebody up needlessly. |

My understanding though is that the officer opening the car door is unconstitutional. I can't speak to that as I have no idea. My guess is that they can open the door if you refuse to get out (assuming the stop is legit). I see so many vids with people making bad choices because they have a bad understanding of the law. I really wish there was more education on that stuff because there are plenty of times where it's a normal legitimate stop or encounter and the person escalates because they think they are right and in the worst cases they end up getting hurt or killed. The crazy amount of auditor type videos with idiots spouting incorrect info certainly doesn't help anyone. |

Quoted: My understanding though is that the officer opening the car door is unconstitutional. View Quote The supreme court established awhile ago that you can be ordered out of the vehicle and must comply. Personally I don't like it when cops use it as a power trip simply because someone is questioning things. A few moments of explanation go a long ways in de-escalation most of the time. There will always be the person that no amount of explaining will matter, but at least the officer tried. Especially in todays world of everything being recorded. Only dick cops get clicks on youtube. |

While it is kind of dumb, the more regular cops dress like swat and the military, the more they seem to have ''issues'' with dealing with the public.

View Quote PA vs Mimms The Ruling in Pennsylvania v. Mimms. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it is not a violation of the Fourth Amendment to order someone out of their car and frisk them. They claimed that the officers' safety far outweighed the slight inconvenience of asking a motorist to exit their vehicle while on a traffic stop. But... When its a simple nothing stop on a high school girl? And there is not perceivable threat? Its a domination move. The same reason if someone mouths off to a cop they suddenly want ID where previously it didn't matter. Its to tell you and make it known who the fuck is in charge. |

And then officer friendly can use innocent confusion to escalate and stay ahead of the "perp" followed with creative reporting to justify himself. |

This is a council meeting from that town. A bunch of idiots actually turned up to defend the cop. The local officials were also whining about people being mean to them online. One guy said that Schimmel stopped and IDed his own teenager daughter twice and then sent her home, and it wasn't a big deal. What kind of bootlick is happy about his young daughter getting stopped for no reason by some ill-tempered halfwit who's worked for five different departments in the three years? Like Attorney Bryan said in the video, if this incident doesn't piss you off, there is something seriously wrong with you. |

View Quote She was stopped for speeding, which is legitimate, but the short fuse temper & the ensuing overreactive hyperbole in the way things were handled was not. This somewhat reminds me of another vid Bryan posted of a traffic stop wherein the officer highly mischaracterized the subject as being overly nervous because he was "sucking all the oxygen out of the air", which was a completely bogus statement, the guy did not present as nervous in the slightest. I'm actually rather surprised by attempts to mischaracterize & misrepresent facts when bodycam video is standard procedure these days, leaving an extremely paper thin margin for creative reporting. |

View Quote Outdated belief system of bAkC dUh bLeW! based on watching heroic cop shows on TV. This clown can watch a video of real-life events and still doesn't have the IQ points required to shift his mindset. It's not startling, but rather a good reminder of just how fucking dumb so many people are. |

You have to keep in mind that the SCOTUS defines what state actors CANNOT do - IOW, just a threshold. It doesn't proactively authorize state or local law enforcement, or federal for that matter, to actually DO anything. PA v. Mimms says an LEO can order a driver out of a car under certain circumstances. However, that assumes that the LEO is already acting under authority of state law. Thus it's conceivable that a particular LEO isn't authorized to do that, b/c states are always free to be more restrictive with LEO than whatever threshold the SCOTUS sets. I was kind of surprised to see here that it does not appear to be a crime, e.g., obstruction, in Indiana, to just refuse, or fail, to get out of a car under these circumstances, absent some threat. Whereas most states will just call that obstruction - not obeying some order based on a vague subjective claim of officer safety. Which is how it should be, at the very least, IMO. |
