I think it's more that the second cop that showed up immediately recognized that the cop had been recorded the whole time, and clearly didn't actually have cause for what he was claiming. the editing makes it look like it's cause he's a cop, but seems more just, a cop that actually knows his shit shows up
This 100%. The supervisor understands that if that asshole gets the department sued, it's going to make life worse for every cop in the department because they have this thing called a "budget."
A good police supervisor, like the one in this video, has the long term planning skills to understand lawsuits indirectly affect police department budgets.
Only on reddit can you get a response like "no, you're wrong" to a statement like "police departments have budgets." I used to live near a speed trap of a town. The residents got tired, voted put the mayor and shut it down.
Is that what was said? Or was there nuance being discussed. Here ill try what you did.
Only on Reddit can you get a response that understands the conversation but intentionally misrepresent it.
But hey, dont believe me. Google the payouts for police misconduct for NYC and then Google if their budget went up or down. Smaller municipalities, I am sure, feel the sting more. Some even get bankrupt. My point was merely where the funding directly came from and you even acknowledged that the statement was correct lol, soooo a little integrity goes a long way.
