Maybe the "Don't Tase Me Bro" kid shouldn't have called the cops "Bro." Because we certainly know they don't like to be called DUDE. A cop in Baltimore has been suspended WITH PAY after a video was posted which featured the officer in his short pants and short vehicle berate some skateboarders.
The incident happened last summer, but only now has hit the innertubes. But according to the Baltimore police union, it doesn't tell the whole story:
Paul Blair, head of the police union, had not seen the video but cautioned that videos show only a slice of a story. He noted that it is impossible to know what happened before or after the camera was turned on.
My buddy Kyle has interesting take:
[11:22] Kyle: Yeah, again, is that kid probably an ass hole?
[11:23] Kyle: Sure
[11:23] Kyle: Has this cop told that kid probably a million times to not skateboard there?
[11:23] Kyle: Again, sure
[11:23] Kyle: Should he have tazed the kid with the video camera first?
[11:23] Kyle: Absolutely
[11:23] HammRadio: LOL
[11:23] Kyle: I mean, of all things, THAT was really his error in judgement
[11:23] HammRadio: really
Now I know, according to The Wire, that Baltimore cops supposedly have more problems to deal with. But this guy is pissed off.
[11:24] HammRadio: Do you think this guy is just pissed because he has to wear shorts
[11:24] HammRadio: and ride shot gun with a meter maid
[11:24] Kyle: I think he's pissed because he didn't get the Segway
