Is feeling threatened enough of a reason to initiate violence in your mind, and use potentially lethal force against someone?

I will say I was honestly unaware that simply possessing closed containers of alcohol was illegal when you're under 21. I thought it was illegal to:

1. Purchase alcohol underage.

2. Drink alcohol underage.

But simple possession? I thought that was fine.

Yeah, the US is a puritanical hellhole. No legal adult should be barred from alcohol

Uh, no. If the law didn't exist, the cops wouldn't have the probable cause to question/detain people are the law.

Just because something exists doesn't mean you have to enforce it. Cops are allowed to use discretion. For example - many cops give you a warning or ignore you if they see you smoking weed. Weed is illegal here in Canada until...later today, actually.

Any cop that sends someone to jail for it is an asshole. They're free to not enforce the law. Entire departments have said they won't do it.

Not all are dumb.

And you wouldnt need zero tolerance rules and laws if society wasnt full of asshole opportunists who ruin everything for everyone else because they're selfish.

You USED to be able to drink openly on any beach in NJ. Now its limited to private beaches or restaurants/bars that have a beach section.

The reason for it is because morons cannot control themselves. People were causing ridiculous fights and people were getting hurt on government property because they were so intoxicated.

Most people who go to the beach have kids or it's people who just want to relax. Not deal with rowdy and obnoxious idiots who have zero sense of discipline to not get absolutely shit faced and cause scenes.

Many of the NJ beach towns live on the money they make from the boardwalk, beaches and amusement sections. The rule is there to protect the integrity of their beaches.

Some people being idiots isn't just cause to punish everyone else. If I decided to get drunk on a beach, I wouldn't harass anyone. Why should I be punished for it because other people are idiots?

Cop should have ignored her


The problem is, is that this specific part of NJ has a history of problems with alcohol and drugs on the beaches.

It's a very family orientated beach town with amusements parks, carnivals and boardwalk attractions. If the town let's shut like this go constantly it hurts their image and their economy.

There are constantly fights and problems with adults and underage kids. So they are enforcing a zero tolerance rule against alcohol on the beaches.

So, if the cop is there to enforce a law or policy, why should he just ignore it rather than the person breaking the law either comply with his request or just not break the law?

Zero tolerance rules are fucking dumb and shouldn't exist.

She could've gave them her last name, and just complied and gave up the alcohol.

She shouldn't have had to.


She was underage in possession on alcohol, right there she was breaking the law, and the other month I read how wildwood was goinf to be alot more strict about people having alcohol on the beach.

She was 20, old enough to drink alcohol in literally every other first world country on the planet.


That's nice.

Except its 21 in america.

And they had probable cause to ID her because she was in possession of alcohol on the beach.

Which in NJ on the beaches is not allowed at all. Open or not. Once she said she was 20 they had reason to obtain her ID.

She was difficult cause she knew she was on probation already, had a kid and was gonna get written up. She played a stupid game and won the stupid prize.

There was no aunt. Notice how when shes calling her aunt, she walks away. After this story broke did anyone ever come forward as the aunt?

Let's ignore the facade. Those were hers, she was gonna drink them and got bagged. She could have given them her ID (but that would bring up her probation) and dumped out the alcohol. But that's too hard. Much easier to fight the police when you're overwhelmingly wrong.

Once he told her he had enough she got up and walked away. Then she kicked a cop and spit on one as well. It's all in the video. She had zero composure.

Cops didnt escalate the situation. The brat bitch did.

Nobody is arguing that you're not legally correct. Just that it's a stupid law and it's stupid for anyone to enforce it.

Cop should have ignored her

It's been going on forever. The mainstream media did the same thing with the Rodney King beating, not showing what lead to the altercation.

Again, the issue with Rodney King wasn't that anyone suggested he was innocent, it was that police used excessive force / brutality to do their job.

These people will never understand. They think any amount of force is acceptable as long as it's done to someone they dislike

Wouldn't improved targeting reduce potential collateral damage?

So would stopping drone strikes.

So, knowing drone strikes aren't going to stop, they ceased improving the targeting which would reduce collateral damage and thus unnecessary loss of life, resulting in drone strikes that are going to keep causing maximum damage going forward.

What's the positive here? The warm fuzzy self righteous "Fuck the military" feeling they got?

The idea is to stop them. We need them to become more and more unpopular. Google is taking a stand and hopefully other companies follow suit

The slaves went along with it because they thought it was a temporary deal and that Jesus would come back in their lifetime to free them all and to rule on Earth as the Messiah.
