Wow, people are actually defending this douche bag? Are there cool cops, yes. Without a doubt there are some great cops out there, a majority are probably good guys. However, you have to admit that many of the folks in that position use it as a power trip.

Should you respect police officers? Absolutely. However, the cop needs to also respect the suspect. He's a complete dick, and thinks he earned some sort of automatic respect? If you're going to disrespect me, you don't deserve my respect in return. I don't care if who you are.

That kid should have given up his board? For what? The cop harassed the hell out of him, and I wish a citizen would have gone in and set his ass straight. We wonder why kids sit inside all day now? Because of shit like this.

This man is an absolute douche bag, and if I were the parents of the kid I would be looking to press charges to in the very least, get him fired.
