In reply to the discussion: Very disturbing video WARNING - man is video taping cops, is arrested, dog shot [View all]If you had watched the video. Here's what you would see. It is safe to watch the first three minutes of the video. Enough time to see you're wrong about the guy.
At no time in this video before the guy is arrested do you see him refusing anything from the police. Keep you eye on the two police officers who end up walking toward him and arresting him. You'll see no concern from them regarding this guys car stereo. Only AFTER they see him video taping them can you tell they are deciding to confront this guy.
The car stereo is just something after they viewed this youtube video as a convenient excuse for their actions.
At 0:24 you'll see cops go into the house where they were investigating.
At 0:40 you'll see two police officers walk across the street away from that house and just a few yards away from the guy and his car and they say nothing. They don't even look at him as they walk away from him.
At 1:37 those two police officers have just turned and started looking at the guy video taping. You can see they are not saying anything to him. They are just looking at him video taping them. It looks like they are deciding whether or not to go harass this guy.
At 1:53 one of those two police officers starts walking toward the guy video taping them but then turns around and goes back to where he was standing.
At 2:09 the guy video taping starts to take his dog to his car. The cops at this point are still just standing around.
At 2:13 as the guy is walking toward his car to put his dog in the back seat he looks back at the two police and sees them still just standing there.
At 2:14 a second after seeing the two police still just standing, the two police start walking towards the guy who is still putting is dog in the car.
At 2:27 the guy shuts the door on his car after just having put his dog away and starts walking toward the two police officers walking toward him.
At 2:34 you'll see the police officer on the right gesture with his hand and say something to the guy who was video taping. This is the first time in the video you can tell the police said anything to this guy. From the video obviously what the police officer told him was to turn around and put his hands behind his back. Which he complied.
At 2:35 the guy video taping turns around and puts his hands behind his back and the police handcuff him.
