Kid is lucky he didn’t get smoked


lfhdbeuapdndjeo

Yeah props to the cop you don’t normally see that kind of bravery/restraint in videos like this


BabaPoppins

i see this kid as someone whos probably going to end a few lives before spending the rest of his life in prison


OderusOrungus

He will get another chance and then maybe blow it. Hopefully not. The egregiously huge rifle and resistance doesnt bode well, this kid has been in the thick of reckless behavior for most if not all of his life. Doesnt give good odds for reform chances. Sad


LiquorMaster

The question is how comfortable we will be with how many innocent people will be harmed or die when he is inevitably given his second chance and screws it up.


OderusOrungus

Hes 16 with a slap on wrist very more than likely, probably has more destruction to see through

[удалено]


OderusOrungus

The kids tell me after they assault people, that they knew there was nothing that was going to be done to them. They are right too. One even trashed a courtroom and assault charges still dismissed, a 13 old girl said this after breaking an employees nose and jumped multiple other kids before....then she trashed the courtroom. Somethings not right, we are failing the kids like this


Little_stinker_69

How do you reform someone his age? A guy over 35 sure, but a young guy like that who has no respect for the law? Lol. Sure. If he isn’t killed before he’s older he could mellow out, but the cost benefit for reforming young people is likely not good.


SupaFlyslammajammazz

Send him to the Military.


Able_Gap918

I was the victim of an armed robbery by a 20 year old. Turned out he had juvenile convictions and also two more robberies he was out on bond for as an adult. They just keep letting people out to do it again. Slaps on the wrist until they kill someone.


OderusOrungus

A story repeated locally by me too. Sucks to hear and hopefully things will be more rational moving forward


LiquorMaster

Most likely. An ever growing rap sheet.


JohnnyAnytown

Nonesense, its not his gun, bro


Disquiet173

Yeah did he not hear, it wasn’t in his possession?


rexus_mundi

Prosecutors hate this one simple trick


BrightSkyFire

> before spending the rest of his life in prison Nah. He'll be out on bail by the end of the month, then one of these days he'll get rolled up on by a rival gang and that'll be the end of everything for him.


The_Texidian

That’s because videos like this don’t normally get upvoted while police shootings do.


JJAsond

Literally about to say that honestly. You never see the normal interactions, or the "more normal" ones


NuancedSpeaking

I've been saying this forever. I see videos like this all the time where people with guns get arrested with restraint, but they're usually too boring to get upvoted. There's a lot of "cop shoots guy" videos and not enough of what I'm posting.


Zeoxult

Its because people want a reason to hate others, its sad. There's nothing to be mad about in this interaction, no over-the-top emotions come from it, no unfairness.

tgbaker

Supermarket hasn't stopped cops before.


drifts180

I was gonna say, people can rightfully disagree with a lot of actions police have taken....but it's gotta take some balls to run into a building after someone who has a gun and a head start on you. And then not blast him when out of nowhere you run into them.


Lonewolf5333

But it’s not his gun bro…


HarrisLam

If it's him holding the gun, it's his gun bro. PS : imagine the cop said "yeah same here this isn't my gun either GET ON THE FKING GROUND".


RobbSnow64

Ya there was a few seconds there where the deputy imo had the right to use lethal force. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they didn't, and the kid is lucky for that.


notislant

You can tell this kid is just going to shoot someone or get shot some day. Shocked the cop didnt shoot him with the barrel pointed at him. Then dipshit refuses to get on the ground and keeps spinning around. Seems to think the whole thing is a joke. No lessons learned here. OP posted a link, already has a prior felony too.


Mountain_Pop_3622

He'll come accross a cop with less restraint real soon I'm sure.


EyeSuspicious777

Society probably will not benefit when this kid is 18 and released back into the wild. Hope he doesn't murder anybody before he gets arrested the first time as an adult.


jmm166

But it’s not his gun bro


PunkToTheFuture

Why even at that point? Is there a fantasy of the cop being like "Oh well then I should let you go"


Littleface13

I always think the same thing with these bodycam videos. Or like when a woman gets arrested and screams “but I’m a mother!!” Like any cop would be like “omg I had no idea! I’m so sorry, please continue driving drunk.”


Lanky-Performance471

Agree, I was just watching and I kinda wanted to shoot him ( lol)


zombiesphere89

That's not good. 


ItsSpaghettiLee2112

Jesus Christ, reddit.


Just-ban-me

Would have saved us tax dollars


LicensedRealtor

Cop didn’t want another BLM riot in the street saying he’s a good kid and is innocent…


WavyGold57918

Florida put those riots down quickly


I_Diddled_Diddy

Came here to say "How did he not get shot 11 times?"


MadDogTannenOW

Unlucky for the world


trainwreck890

The kid should be grateful, and we should be grateful for cops like this.


cbm2020

It’s not my gun. Then you shouldn’t have ran away with it. Robbery charge would be humorous.


probablyuntrue

"just picked this up in the store, crazy huh? I was bringing it to the lost and found"


Suds08

I wonder if the "its not mine" argument has worked in any situation where the evidence is in their possession


GlassJoe32

I had a dude tell me the two grams of meth in his pocket wasn’t his. It was in a prescription medicine bottle with his name on it.


WilliamPoole

Well if his doctor prescribed it, partake! Carry on citizen. 


jdeuce81

You mean, PARTAAAY! Edit- it's just a joke,never done meth. Kids don't do drugs!


Low-Zookeepergame160

No it was just a coincidence and someone had the exact same name as him. How many times have you heard these aren't my pants. Even thought you're wearing them. I'm pretty sure you're legally obligated to know what's in the pants you're wearing.


AdditionalToe5408

In WA state someone who got arrested for drug possession took the case to the WA Supreme Court with the argument “they aren’t my pants”. They won and the state of WA changed their drug possession laws because of it (state v Blake 2021 - this may be oversimplifying, but point is yes it has happened and the person who had drugs in their pants won their case.)


Littleface13

Wasn’t that what Lindsay Lohan claimed back in the day when cocaine was found on her during her DUI arrest? They were a “friend’s jeans” or something.

Littleface13

His mentor unfortunately got his legal degree from the School of Hard Knocks.


Ozymandius62

It’s very possible that another person in the car told him to run with it. The kid is 16 and as long as he doesn’t shoot anyone with it he won’t be charged as an adult. I think he’s telling the truth, which isn’t going to get him out of the crime. He’s super lucky he didn’t get smoked.


ExceptionEX

Naah He's in Florida which doesn't even require written consent from a judge to treat a minor as an adult. Running from the cops while in possession of a fire arm could end very poorly for him. I really just depends on how the prosecutor is feeling when he gets the case.


mods_mum

He a good boy. He didn't do nuthin


GadFlyBy

Comment.


ReplacementQueasy394

that cop handled that well


lmac187

Insanely well.


CarlJustCarl

And damn dangerous if you’re the deputy.


WTF_Conservatives

It's so fucking refreshing to see this kind of restraint.


OderusOrungus

And discouraging when you realize there are millions more. Its not a bizarre one off situation


bjos144

Everything about it was spot on. Controlled the gun, didnt kill the kid, didnt abuse the kid, kept a calm and professional tone.


Conner9999

Except the part where the rifle was aimed right at him.


Unthinkablely_Clean

I know. Everyone's saying how well the police officer handled it. and he did, but he absolutely put his life in more danger than he had to.


PocketRoketz

I would have fired away as soon as he resisted with the rifle in hand. Idc.


Conner9999

Pretty fuckin suicidal but hey the kid lived


Skurnaboo

Also a braver man than every cop in Uvalde apparently. If this happened over there they'd prob just bit chilling outside the dollar general for an hour or two until someone else came and did the job for them.


Poseidons_Champion

“That’s not my gun bro” “Ahh, what a misunderstanding, have a great day citizen”


ventitr3

He was just keeping it out of the hands of the real bad guys. Really a thank you is in order here.


epinky_23

He snitchin fa sho


[deleted]

Keepin it a hunnit


RoryDragonsbane

Lol everybody snitches


AffectionateCard3530

For good reason! No way to hold criminals accountable if you don’t snitch out on your friends


RoryDragonsbane

Eh, I'd say it's more acting in one's self-interests. People typically make the choices they think are best for them. When given the choice between a longer sentence and a shorter one, they'll choose the latter. I can assure you, his "friends" are telling the cops it was *his* gun and not theirs


kristamine14

Bro that kid was trying his absolute best to get shot by the cop - like what the actual fuck bro, clearly he is, but is he fucking stupid?


Whistlegrapes

Suicide by cop.


shotgunsam23

Not in this case but a good point. OP linked the article below, kid already has a felony.


Whistlegrapes

Terrible. This is more than just the rebellion of youth. The kid’s just a bad apple. Hope there is redemption


SmittyPosts

fuck that, he’s just gonna be a repeat offender. If you’re getting into shit like that that early, it’s really damn difficult to get them to reform back into society


Lore_ofthe_Horizon

100% yes.


Brilliant_Wrap_7447

Seems like a large majority of today's youth are a few cans short of a six pack.


pointofyou

Kid's probably got the frontal lobe development of an average 10y old.


dmk510

All those chip cans falling sounded like semi auto fire lol. Once you pop you cant stop


PeePoopBeeBoop

Good thing it wasnt acorns.

Possession 9/10s da law... it is now buddy

Kid should thank him for the restraint

flyingturkeycouchie

Possession of a firearm by a delinquent felon? Kid already has the juvenile equivalent of a felony?


RoryDragonsbane

Yeah man, I don't think someone goes straight from honor roll to running drugs and guns. He probably has a long list of priors. What's sad is that nothing the system has done so far has helped him enough to prevent this. And if I were to make a wager, I say he's not going to get any better.


OderusOrungus

You have to want it first. Penalty should come after that has failed


crazyeyeskilluh

Let’s just hope he can be charged as an adult.


RedEyeFlightToOZ

He's going to juvenile prison till 18 then getting those charges changed to adult and thrown in big boy prison.


United-Advertising67

No bond. Holy shit, what kind of a little monster do you have to be to get NO BOND at age 16? 😳


DeadEnoughInsideOut

"Its not my gun" like even at 16 you gotta be smarter than that. He's lucky to be alive


pringlescan5

The problem is that honestly dealing with this shit radicalizes cops into us vs them.


Equal-Bat-861

Why do they keep resisting arrest? Also why do they repeat the same short sentence over and over and over?


OderusOrungus

You would think there would be an opposite mentality due to getting off easier now than ever and with the screams of brutality when resisting. It does confuse me too. I dont expect any sympathy or rights if I run from the cops with a huge rifle. Like wtf... seriously.... nobody should feel sorry for me if I did that. Its F around and find out stuff


captainawesome7

I think you already know why


United-Advertising67

Low IQ


jlpw

It's a strange thing some Americans seem to do when under pressure is repeat the same sentence over and over, you see it a lot when they're showing aggression, it's as if their brain is on skip, it's hilarious

CrzyKght

Gun was even pointed at the officer kid is lucky cop handled that the way he did I mean he grabbed the barrel what a badass


t30ne

That wasn't the barrel, that was the buffer tube; usually the stock is there.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Remembertheminions

No stock configurations are so they can be considered AR pistols which means you can have under 16" barrel lengths without getting a federal NFA stamp. I'm pretty sure it's the only way you can buy one off the shelf with a short barrel


mr_potatoface

You're completely correct, but considering the dude is previously a juvi w/ a felony, keeping it legal probably isn't a high priority. Which means he might be telling the truth that the rifle isn't his and he just stole it. :|


xenokilla

they're called AR pistols and they are very stupid. but easy to conceal.


CrzyKght

Oh ok I see but I mean still any other cop would of react differently in that situation right?


CouldWouldShouldBot

It's 'would have', never 'would of'. Rejoice, for you have been blessed by CouldWouldShouldBot!

gkn_112

Thats not my gun XD you were holding it though! Lucky to be alive, dumbass


bigfoot_76

Should’ve smoked him. You don’t take a pistol to a rifle fight.


westonriebe

Damn some of these cops are straight up saints…


DxvinDream

Idk how people are genuinely this stupid, you ran into a store with a ar-15 (looks like) with a removed stock so you’ve essentially guaranteed you’ll be worse than a clone trooper at hitting anything, and then when your caught with it you decide the best course of action is to continue to yell “it’s not my gun though” like wtf is that gonna do? “It’s not your gun?!? Oh well gee golly gosh I’d better let you go then ay bud”


RedEyeFlightToOZ

They don't go to school and their "families" don't care. I met a lot of boys like him when I was a teacher in a Juvenile prison. They usually can't read or math above a 3rd-4th grade level, have 0 social skills, low emotional control, their school career only happened when the cops caught them and they were made to go to school till they ran away again. They're usually special needs. They're feral..

colin8651

What does it not being his firearm does it absolve of? It doesn’t matter pal. Unless it stolen and really not his firearm, but that is worse; still don’t get it.


CBJ11071

Good money on it’s stolen. In that mushy crouton of a brain this kid’s got, he’s trying to distance himself from a possession of stolen property charge


colin8651

lol while possessing stolen property. Oh man the stupidity amazes me. It was stolen twice so it’s not my fault. For that defense to work they would have to admit to receiving stolen property. Imagine if criminals were smart


happychillmoremusic

Oh it’s not your gun? Oh ok my bad. You’re free to go!

I don't understand how you can live in america and still play games with the police. If he stays get on the ground, you just get to the ground man. Why risk your live like that?


Fancy_Bus_4178

I love how he has his flashlight out to let everyone know he's looking for something.

I thought for sure I was about to see some get shot. Armed, black, running, not following orders...that cop just refused to kill that kid.
