Holy jeez. This would all go a lot

Spread your feet for me. Go ahead. No.
Spread your feet. Spread your feet some
more. Do you have anything on? You're
going to stick me on me. All this
because I had to go to the bathroom. All
this because you didn't listen. I had to
go. It has nothing to do with you going
to the bathroom. It has to do with you
listening. I had a bad stomach ache. Did
you have to go to the freaking bathroom?
Just because I had to go to the bathroom
real bad. You're going to freaking stop
me. No. Somebody got gloves. I'll take
the prongs out. This is pathetic. Holy
[ __ ] Is this what our time has come to?
Stop. No. Is this what our time has come
to? Well, today wouldn't let somebody go
to the freaking bathroom. That's not
what I said, did I? I was in a hurry.
Stop yelling. Now that you've calmed
down, alls I was going to do was get
your information. Listen to me. Listen
to me. All I do is get all your
information. Didn't need didn't need the
ration that came. I couldn't wait. I
couldn't hold it no more. I'm not even
going to talk to you at this point.
Well, let me ask you a question. Let me
ask you a question. Just one question.
When you get a bad stomach ache some
sometimes, all right, and and you get it
real fast and real bad, you got to get
to the bathroom real fast. Correct.
Yeah. But you All right. You are driving
a 20 third 26,000 lb missile. The way
you came off the interstate. It's all on
tape. The whole interaction 30 seconds
before I hit my lights shows you coming
off the
inter. No, it didn't. I'm not arguing
with you. Are you going to let me talk
so I can explain things to you? All
right. I was going to give you a couple
citation, all right, for the red light.
I was going to get your information, get
your phone number, and once I verified
everything, let you go to the bathroom.
But when you don't want to give me
anything, listen to me. I I let you
talk, did I not? Yeah. So, either you're
going to let me talk or you're going to
sit in the back of the car and you're
going to read the PCA at the end of the
day because obviously you don't want to
listen. I'm listening. All right. At
which point you would have gave me the
information. I would have let you go in
there. I don't have a problem with that.
But when you tell me you're going to let
me go, I have to let you do this. I'm
going to lose my job. Guess what? game
on. It doesn't it doesn't matter that
you had to go. You are being consed by a
law enforcement officer. At that point,
you are not free to do anything you want
to do until the stop is done. Now, like
I told you, had I got your phone number,
had you given me the information had you
said, "Sir, I did whatever. I ran in the
stoplight and I I was trying to get here
to go to the bathroom." I would have
been, "Yeah, I understand it. No
problem. Let me get your information. Go
do it and come back out." And it would
have been as simple as that. But when
you It doesn't matter. Did you not hear
what I just said? You're not listening
to me. But I'm not going to sit there
and have an accident. Well, this is what
happens in the meantime then when you
don't listen. Well, when you because I
don't know what your intentions are,
okay? I don't know if you have drugs,
you got a gun, if you're just trying to
leave the scene, if you got you got a
warrant. I don't know. It doesn't
matter. My fingerprinted by the
government. It doesn't matter. You drive
a commercial vehicle. The government
this whole situation arised because you
didn't want to listen. I g Well, I was
in a hurry. I gave you my license. I
gave you the permit book. Yeah. after
like after like the fourth or fifth time
I had to yell at you and then you said,
"I'm still going to go. You're not going
to go. You're not in control of this
stuff." I'm not going to take I'm not
going to go to the bathroom in my pants.
Well, you would have already been in the
bathroom and been out of the ticket and
been out of here. So, why didn't you
just accept the book in my license?
Because there's things I have to verify.
Simple as that. I'm not going anywhere.
Simple as that. I don't know that. How
do I know? You jump out and you start to
head away from the truck. Well, that's
why I came over to you. No, you were
heading back to there. Well, I came back
over to you. Yeah, but then you want to
get all shitty with me. I Well, I told
you. And today you're going to take a
trip to the jail. When they're done
checking you out, we're going to take a
trip to the jail. He knocked the other
one out and he he tried to pull the
other one out. It didn't work the first
time. And then he stepped on it. Then he
did it again. Work a second time. Oh
yeah. Taser. Taser. Taser. Taser. Like
hell. What happened? You would since
he's bleeding pretty bad. You want to
put a band-aid or whatever? I can. We
can do it then. This just you stick this
down in here like that just to pull
straight out. And you pull it straight
out. Just like that. It's going to hurt.
Could you loosen this one for me? Just a
little bit. This one right here? Yeah.
Give me a second. I'll put another set
of cuffs on you.
All right. Turn around for me. Keep your
arm right where it's at.
That better. N too tight now. Which one?
This one. I You can't bend your wrist.
There you go. Can't bend your wrist.
That's fine. Are you offloading gas here
or no? No, I had to go to the bathroom.
You guys do a lot of things different
from years ago. All right. Go ahead and
have a seat.
I can't fit in here like this. You just
lean back. It'll all fit in there. There
you go. It's tight, but it's the way we
have to. Like I said, I just had my
shoulder done. I get
it. What a mess, man. Just listen to me.
I'll help you out. I'm not a jerk, man.
Apparently, you are. Whatever, dude. I
don't care. I mean, I just You know me.
This is not where I wanted this to stop
to go. How long you been my corpse was
the first use of force? Didn't you say
you haven't tased anybody ever or
something? No, I didn't say that for
you.
What a mess, dude. Sorry. I know. You're
good. Thank you. Yep. You guys be safe.
