Not the cop, but the fat white male (mid forties-ish) in a tan polo shirt and shorts. He's milling around and being allowed to roam around as he pleases while all the black kids are bossed around and threatened.
Who is he, and what authority does he have?

Was funny, but the guy is just a neighbor I think.
Did the cop ACTUALLY do a BARREL ROLL at one point as Larry showed, or was that doctored for funny?

(16,286 posts)Problem is it is easy to say that and then dismiss him as the exception, when is not at all.

The cop was bad enough, but the comments from the republican Women who started the whole thing, the teapartiers.
How do I know they are repub or teaparty?
Simple math

It'd be kind of hard not to trip running over those roots.

(15,472 posts)That boss hog guy is like so much of America, unidentified, un prosecutable, good Ole boy's, who when are called on their shit, are concerned citizens covering the backs of cops, while their buddies are doing acrobatics .

(75,480 posts)At first I thought he might try to help the girl, not physically but by talking down the cop. But instead he seemed to be circling around like he was daring anyone to pull the cop off the girl. I really hope someone gets a statement from this guy as to what he thought he was doing, because right now he looks like a racist POS.

Who is that a hole who looked on without stopping the actions of that cop on meth?
