After Jones called for backup, an Indianapolis police officer arrived and spoke with Jones near the car. After a short conversation, Jones told the men they were free to go, but refused to give his name and walked away. The Indianapolis officer told the men he didnt know Jones, but that he saw no reason why they had been stopped, and that Jones was required to identify himself.

Now there's a non-bastard who's speaking out against his corrupt brethren

Cop standards are far too low.

He was off duty and working as security?!!?

For every one of these videos that surface and result in something like this, there are dozens of instances of profiling that go unpunished.

Good news, saw this video a couple days ago.

This was what a lot of people missed about the Black Lives Matter movement. Killing black people was just the most visceral part of the outrage, but they're countless examples of being harassed by police simply for being black in the wrong place or time. Had these 2 not videotaped this, this officer likely still has a job.

Sure didnt, but saw someone saying some junk so I figured Id correctly point things out.

gator, a good video of a cop managing to not violently beat a man during a routine traffic stop doesnt absolve them of stuff like this.

I gotcha, I just think its silly people here still think 7 cops out of a million make up the whole force.

And I absolutely cant stand cops as they cant stand me either.
