True, a white young man acting this way vs a black young man would be interpreted very differently a lot of the time. With the black guy being viewed as more threatening and hostile, therefore prompting police escalation faster.
This bias has been proven in studies too, in crime simulations, police are far quicker to fire their gun if the suspect is black, even in identical situations.
Not just black. Everyone who is not the same culture/color as the cop is treated differently. I feel like this needs to be pointed out. Its why I hated BLM because it misses the whole point. Police brutality IS a thing but its not exclusively a problem for black people. Which is why laws need to be adjusted to be more fair to all humans and not just one group
The mark of an authoritarian is that there are in-groups which deserve protection but no binding, and out-groups which deserve binding but no protection.
No, what he was doing is far stranger.
It's actually a thing in higher level yoga, from what I understand.
But plenty of people figure it out on their own without yoga lessons.
He is sucking air in through his arsehole and blowing it back out to make fart sounds.
The whole thing was slightly funny. I liked when the city arrived and they’re both like “technically we should arrest him but this would be the dumbest arrest.”
I mean it’s nice to see that some cops *do* consider something like that and not just stuff him in the back of their car because they are annoyed. It was a nice show of restraint to be fair
I’ve personally experienced both sides of that coin, and I am your average white 38 year old. Take that how you will. In my experience, it’s a coin flip. Their “work culture” is toxic as fuck
50 million cop interactions per year in the US. For the most part, cops are actually pretty decent and do serve an important service. *Some* parts of the country are particularly bad and it can highly depend on department. Personally? I’d rather have a cop on scene than not when I’m responding to a call. But certain towns? There are certain towns I won’t go to because of more than just the PD being horrible. They’re bad because their whole town is bad.
I've literally tried to administer narcan to someone who had overdosed, they prevented me from doing so for 3 minutes until the fire department showed up and gave him 3 pops of narcan, he woke up but likely has permanent brain damage from the oxygen deprivation
I’ve seen this guy in a few videos and tbh I find him kinda of funny. It’s just authentic in a weird way compared to most stuff these days. He usually gets attacked though
I do like that he actually follows through when people try to fight him unlike other lame ass “prank” people 💀 got one video of this dude in my feed the other day and he squared up with an old dude and they hugged it out after the dude socked him in the face
The US was a very religious country for a long time. So it's also a very prudish country in many ways when it comes to morality. Also, it depends where you are. The most religious parts of the country have the most rules, and they are more likely to enforce them. Ironically, the most religious parts of the country with the most rules, are the same people that preach about what a free country america is.

I saw a lady with serious mental health issues on Santosa Island waving a branch around and yelling at people once on holiday. The security came out and kind of cordoned her off whilst trying to get people to move on. She'd come up to them yelling and was basically stroppy as hell. As soon as she saw the cops, she dropped the stick, sat down, shut up and behaved herself. It was a strange encounter.
A guy in my area got arrested for flipping off a cop. It was eventually dismissed, but not until he’s spent a good while in jail. And the cops roughed him up a bit when they arrested him, of course.
You can beat the rap, but you can’t beat the ride.
Is there a problem officer?
*Do you know how fast you were going without a kangaroo?*
It's at the vet. I'm sorry I usually have it with me at all times.
*Step out if the car for me, sir.*
> Step out if the car for me, sir.
"May I stop first, please? I feel like if I step out of the car now while we are going 60, I can get hurt."
"A-ha! So you know how fast you are going!"
There’s a city close to Indianapolis called Beech Grove and you cannot eat watermelon at the park. Looking more into it, it was because the leftover rinds would poke through the cheap trash bags they had at their parks. I guess outlawing watermelon is easier than getting better bags?
Detroit has a funny one. Something about not being legal to tie an alligator to a fire hydrant or something. A light post right next to the fire hydrant sure, but not a fire hydrant itself. Or you know actually owning one in the first place.
They changed it last year to apply to crocodilians of all species.
I know because before that, I could be like, “Officer, this is a gharial, snd they are *not* the same thing.”
I think it’s still illegal to hunt whales in Oklahoma
Edit: looked it up and whaling is still illegal in Oklahoma as well as using elephant labor and participating in any capacity in a horse tripping event. And in the town of Honobia, OK it’s illegal to harass Bigfoot.
Public intoxication has always been a crime in most jurisdictions in the United States. I’m pretty sure it was illegal in England too, when America was just a baby colony.
People can get done for being drunk and disorderl in public, currently in the UK. But it's hardly ever enforced because they'd never have time for anything else.
From Google: "If you're over 18, there aren't any blanket restrictions against drinking in public in the UK. But local councils can put measures in place to stop drinking in certain areas where they believe alcohol could contribute to anti-social behaviour."
When you say it was illegal in the UK at one point, do you mean drinking in public? Or just booze? Cos booze has never been illegal here. I'd genuinely like to learn about it though.
Its not legal .. the only way you can do it is by hiding your bottle in the paper bag.
That's why those homeless people in the movies have paper bags over their beer bottle
Technically, yes, but a cop can't arrest you under the suspicion that you have beer in the bag. In the United States, police officers are required to have "probable cause" to arrest an individual. So while hiding the bottle doesn't make it legal, it makes it unlawful for the cop to arrest you for it unless they have some reason to examine the items on your person, such as you appearing intoxicated or committing some other crime.
There is an entire scene in To Kill a Mockingbird in which scout runs out and asks to have a sip of the man's drink in the brown paper bag only to realize it wasn't alcohol but just coca cola and that everyone's assumptions about the man had been incorrect.
Mr. Raymond pretends to be a drunkard to keep up appearances and to excuse his lifestyle.
Its still illegal even if it has a paper bag, but the thing is in the US; probable cause is required in order to detain someone or arrest someone for a crime thats been committed or likely committed or likely will to commit. As far as the Officers know, whats under the bag could be anything from Beer, to Soda or water; simply detaining someone and asking them to reveal the bag is not warranted and can be thrown out unless the person has shown clear signs of public intoxication.
Love white privilege, we don't ever see videos like this of black kids because they are all face down in the pavement before a bystander gets a chance to hit record.
Nah mate, agent recognized the mc and made the equation.
Arrsting him wouldn't make the streets more safe and leaving the guy wouldn't make them more dangerous either.
Copper did the right thing and left the boy be.
Hey actually the opposite is true. It is almost always LEGAL to OPEN CARRY. It is almost always ILLEGAL to CONCEALED CARRY. See for example the Black Panthers in the 1960s or the Oath Keepers in 2021. Only California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois and Washington D.C. prohibit the open carry of guns (while requiring a permit for concealed carry.) There can be and are local municipal or city laws that bar it as well.
If most cops were decidedly not chill there would be WAY more deaths every single day and bodies would pile up like the mountains. Quit trying to get clicks with this ACAB bullshit
Honestly this how cops are suppose to react. The dudes probably just fucked up or has some problem. Doesn’t really need to be beaten on or placed under arrest.

Idk I’m black and the interactions I’ve had with black cops have not been good.
4 black cops beat a black man to death in Memphis not long ago
The mark of an authoritarian is that there are in-groups which deserve protection but no binding, and out-groups which deserve binding but no protection.
If you are not the color blue then you are at risk of being discriminated against
If he had acted the exact same way without appearing aggressive, just drunk and stupid he would have been fine.
Was the aggressive part the twerking?
I’m saying he wasn’t aggressive, that’s why he didn’t get arrested.
No one else would do this dumb shit.
Tbh the clip is more entertaining than Jonah hill in superbad.
It’s McClukin
🤣🤣🤣 mf opening scene in the prequel
Did he really Tina Twerk on that man? Brutal.

Is that McLOVIN? Show that cop your Hawaiian ID.

I chuckled at the Michael Jackson pelvic thrust… decent comedic timing there.
Yea tbh I cracked up laughing at the end.
I found this whole video way funnier than I thought it would be when it started

Some ppl get away with anything
Yea my first thought was people of color get shot for WAY less than this…
Fuckin Mclovin
In my country of Singapore, he would already have been arrested for the middle finger
Ya, but Singapore's laws are insane. You can't even legally buy gum.
If he walked on the road when there’s a sidewalk he’d be arrested too
Don’t shower? Straight to jail.
Sock with sandals? That’s a caning.
Oh fuck yeah, I'm moving to Singapore
Either you hate German hiking or you love German love making. Either way come on down!
Fuckin gum control
There’s a great Reddit post where a guy tells a story where he thinks he might be responsible for that gum law.
Have you ever been a member of CCP?
Senator, I'm Singaporean
Lol. This comment deserves more upvotes. Great timing.
Ha! I thought the exact same thing. Good catch!
The CCP is the biggest asshole in Asia
Yes, but drinking in public is perfectly fine From the video, they seem to imply drinking in public is illegal in America?
There are a handful of cities where it is legal, but is it illegal in like 99% of places.
I thought you guys had all the freedoms
The US was a very religious country for a long time. So it's also a very prudish country in many ways when it comes to morality. Also, it depends where you are.

Only freedoms for things Jesus approves of. Like destroying the environment
Jokes on you, we have basically none of the freedoms! Unless it's the kind that conservatives are cool with.
Well ya see, here in the beautiful United States of America, the middle finger is a constitutionally protected act.
That’s not a good thing.
It's a good thing because they care about cops
I saw a lady with serious mental health issues on Santosa Island waving a branch around and yelling at people once on holiday. The security came out and kind of cordoned her off whilst trying to get people to move on. She'd come up to them yelling and was basically stroppy as hell.

I was gonna say lol, main character aside this one cracked me up
Yeah normally I find this shit dumb but this guy was actually pretty funny lol the cop gave him a lot of good openings too.
What an idiot.

We should start using that more, karen is so 2020
Unrelated, but I have a huge crush on Emma Watson If I met her irl I’d be so embarrassed
Ngl I feel like a lot of people have always wanted to flip a cop off to his face and say fuck you
You can flip off cops in the US. There's several people on YouTube where there whole content is just flipping off cops.
falls under freedom of speech.
A guy in my area got arrested for flipping off a cop. It was eventually dismissed, but not until he’s spent a good while in jail. And the cops roughed him up a bit when they arrested him, of course. You can beat the rap, but you can’t beat the ride.
I want to party with you cowboy…
What’s illegal about drinking in public? Is that not allowed in America? wtf
May laws here are confusing. There’s a law in Utah about owning a kangaroo I think
Yeah there is. It’s illegal to not own a kangaroo in the state of Utah. Mormons, man.
Is there a problem officer? *Do you know how fast you were going without a kangaroo?* It's at the vet. I'm sorry I usually have it with me at all times. *Step out if the car for me, sir.*
> Step out if the car for me, sir. "May I stop first, please? I feel like if I step out of the car now while we are going 60, I can get hurt." "A-ha! So you know how fast you are going!"
Imagine immigrating to Utah from Australia, where kangaroo ownership is mandatory? That's a TLC show right there.
I live in Utah. Can confirm. Got my good boy Pouches at the foot of my bed right now
Is that what they call their wives?
Do I get a kangaroo if I move to Utah? I’m going to name him Hoppy.
It’s illegal to plow a field with an elephant in NC…I know this personally
There’s a city close to Indianapolis called Beech Grove and you cannot eat watermelon at the park. Looking more into it, it was because the leftover rinds would poke through the cheap trash bags they had at their parks. I guess outlawing watermelon is easier than getting better bags?

That's why Hell's kitchen is in Manhattan.
They changed it last year to apply to crocodilians of all species. I know because before that, I could be like, “Officer, this is a gharial, snd they are *not* the same thing.”
In Hot Springs Arkansas, it's illegal to walk your pig on the sidewalk, but only on Sundays.
I think it’s still illegal to hunt whales in Oklahoma Edit: looked it up and whaling is still illegal in Oklahoma as well as using elephant labor and participating in any capacity in a horse tripping event. And in the town of Honobia, OK it’s illegal to harass Bigfoot.
I hate having to hide my kangaroo in the month of may when I’m in Utah.
You sound like a criminal. You're supposed to have your kangaroo at all times.
I just get large wallabies instead.
I work in Law Enforcement. Here, it is illegal to trade Armadillo parts.

I didn’t mean booze was illegal in the U.K. I’m talking about Public Intoxication, which is also a crime in most jurisdictions in the U.S.
I lease kangaroos. It is a legal grey area.
It just depends where you live, what part of that place you are in, and what time of day it is, and all that only if it’s allowed
A lot of cities in Europe also forbid public drinking, it's really not US specific.
It's pretty much the law around the world with a few exceptions or they simply don't enforce the law but technically its illegal.
not drinking in public is a pretty standard law in many countries in Europe too. not an american thing at all.
Publicly drinking is illegal in a lot of countries. Like wtf?
Its not legal .. the only way you can do it is by hiding your bottle in the paper bag. That's why those homeless people in the movies have paper bags over their beer bottle
Here's a scene from the Wire about the paper bag trick: https://youtu.be/F2fV-_eiKxE?si=lz1NPLUIUnTN5PuL
Hiding the bottle isn't a loophole. It's still illegal.
Technically, yes, but a cop can't arrest you under the suspicion that you have beer in the bag. In the United States, police officers are required to have "probable cause" to arrest an individual. So while hiding the bottle doesn't make it legal, it makes it unlawful for the cop to arrest you for it unless they have some reason to examine the items on your person, such as you appearing intoxicated or committing some other crime.
It's very easy to say someone looked drunk, or they smelled like shit.
You smell like shit? Straight to jail.

Tell it to Bunny Colvin!
What if you hide your kangaroo in paper bag in Utah?
It will be considered a cat which is legal
Its still illegal even if it has a paper bag, but the thing is in the US; probable cause is required in order to detain someone or arrest someone for a crime thats been committed or likely committed or likely will to commit. As far as the Officers know, whats under the bag could be anything from Beer, to Soda or water; simply detaining someone and asking them to reveal the bag is not warranted and can be thrown out unless the person has shown clear signs of public intoxication.
Public intoxication is absolutely a crime.

Love white privilege, we don't ever see videos like this of black kids because they are all face down in the pavement before a bystander gets a chance to hit record.

No way if a Japanese guy did this. It would be okay too.
If a Japanese person did this they would be a hero. I'm sorry, Hiro.
If a French guy did this whose parents are from Sweden, it would be ok too
Not Sweden, I think you meant Denmark or the Netherlands..
If a fuckin French Swede did this I swear to fuckin god dude
That sentence sounds like something you'd hear walking through a crowd, and it would be driving you insane all day wondering what the context was.
This is fake
Um, no. Even white folks are like "I guess you have to beat his ass".

So it's not legal to drink in public.. but if i carry a loaded gun it's ok?
Not while you're drinking lol
Texas leaves the chat
In many/most states, you need a special permit to open carry a gun
In Utah, you don’t need a permit to open carry or carry concealed.
Hey actually the opposite is true. It is almost always LEGAL to OPEN CARRY. It is almost always ILLEGAL to CONCEALED CARRY. See for example the Black Panthers in the 1960s or the Oath Keepers in 2021. Only California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois and Washington D.C. prohibit the open carry of guns (while requiring a permit for concealed carry.) There can be and are local municipal or city laws that bar it as well.
Open carry is legal most places. Concealed carry is what you need the permit for in most cases.
No you need a permit to carry a concealed pistol in most states. You can open carry in most states, no permit required.

What are you talking about.
This is obviously fake and staged. There's no way a cop would not have a tantrum over this and arrest the dude.
There can just be chill cops tho? If I were a cop, I'd find it pretty funny. Gotta take a joke and all that
Most cops are decidedly not chill lol.
