One bad apple (cop) ruins the bunch of good ones

You think that is bad...

You ain't seen nuthin'...

Whoa.

Yes, but... I cannot fathom what it takes to pull over a car in the middle of the night on the bad side of town. I think I can understand the fear, the adrenalin response, and how logic and reason can leave you. Once you have seen the video of the murder of Deputy Kyle Dinkheller, you'll never question how terrifying a traffic stop can be.

So... yeah. This cop has some problems. I can't forgive him his problems. But, I can understand them, at least.

I lieu of a unicorn chaser, here's an open-carry done well.

yes the side of town is so bad the woman and the other guy were down there unarmed and not scared. Yet 2 heavily armed cops with back up close by (as seen by the other cop car driving by) which they did not call for are so scared that one of them feels the need to threaten to kill a guy acting non threatening manner over and over again. The jack *** rants and raves for 10 minutes without his partner doing a thing to diffuse the stuation. Then instead of being fired and arrested and out in jail for his crimes they out the cop on paid leave and further violate the innocent civilians rights. The cop who has no business being a cop and further he is the typw of person who should not be permitted to have a gun.

This also all too often goes unaddressed in such situations. Rather than acknowledge when one of their own is behaving badly, many fellow officers instead stand idly by when a bad cop is being a bad cop. In those cases, they should be held equally accountable IMO.
