Police said Rep. Dean Davis (R) of the Oklahoma House of Representatives was among a group of people who had remained on the patio of Skinny Slim’s, a pub in downtown Oklahoma City, at around 2:11 a.m. on Thursday. Officers told everyone on the patio to leave since it was a violation for a bar to allow people to continue drinking after 2 a.m., which is when the bar closes.

After telling one man to put his drink down and leave the premises three times, the man, who was identified as Rep. Dean Davis, became argumentative, according to an arrest affidavit.

The report states that he showed officers a credential and said something along the lines of, “You don’t know how bad you messed up. You will find out tomorrow.”

In the body camera footage released Friday, police officers are seen taking Davis into custody outside of the bar.

“Are you guys really doing this?” he can be heard on the video asking the officers.

1. Ah, the Reese Witherspoon approach to LEOs.

14. Wow. I didn't know what an obnoxious entitled jerk she was.

Saying “Do you know my name?” - like she thinks she should be treated differently than mere mortals because she can memorize lines from a script and make money playing pretend.

2. Per Sean Hannity, "if an officer gives you a command just say, yes, Sir, and comply".

As Sean Hannity put it:
If the police officer gives you a command, ‘Please exit the car,’
You should say: ’Yes, officer… Okay, officer.”

Fellow Fox anchor Kimberly Guilfoyle echoed that, telling viewers “listen,” “just comply!”

That has been the standard conservative lecture to Americans across a spate of policing controversies — that everyone, innocent or guilty, should just do what the police tell you… no matter how aggressive they are.

12. Look, laws are meant to protect but not bind guys like him.

He knows it the LEOs know it. He needed to comply and get a drive home and go on with his life. Nothing would have or will happen to him.

Hannity and his ilk still say comply, because the local valet service probably won’t even finger print him. These are like water is wet stories.

15. Ashli Babbitt should have listened to Sean Hannity and Kim Gargoyle

17. He also said, "Work hard and play by the rules, and you too can be a success in America"

While he sits behind a microphone and spews BS even he doesn't believe. He's cashed in bigly.

3. "It appears he needs to seek help for substance abuse."

He needs to seek help for privilege abuse and for being an entitled prick.

[soldierant]

5. AMEN !!!

[Samrob]

4. They simply do not respect or accept the law applying the law to themselves. Only "others." nt

[louis-t]

6. He didn't say "don't you know who I am"?

This is my 'shocked' face.

[Timeflyer]

10. Yeah, he was too drunk to remember that slimy phrase.

He can't control himself, but I bet he's big on laws to control others (women).

7. Would you mind explaining the acronym?

I know most, but the six letter ones are a bit much.

[Delphinus]

8. I believe

it means: it's OK if you are a republican.

[whathehell]

9. Okay, I got it.

Thanks for responding.

11. Alcohol and fools what a combo.

13. Years ago I was waiting in a bank line and a guy forced his way to the front.

When a woman stopped him, he said "Do you know who I am?" and she said yes, get to the back of the line.
Then she said "Give a monkey a little hair and he thinks he is King Kong". He left the bank.

16. Reminds me of a story that happened at the check-in counter at an airport

Some asshole (a Rethuglican no doubt) was demanding a first-class seat or something like that and kept saying to the agent at the counter "Do you know who I am?" like he was a big shot who should be revered. The agent got on the loudspeaker and announced to everyone that there was someone at the counter that did not know who they were, and could anyone help him? That shut him up.

[twodogsbarking]

20. Great one.

18. Power drunk punk.

19. Who is surprised by this?

Repugs do not believe in following the law
