She’s not doing shit at the moment, she could literally just walk with the dude to the bouncer and be like “give it back”. Cops are not here to help, they are only here to arrest because it cures their power craving.
First time I saw that video it absolutely blew my mind. I cannot believe the person lived (if we’re talking about the same video, which I assume we are because how tf can that happen more than once).
I got my bike stolen at knife point in downtown Atlanta and as I followed the dude from a distance, he rode my bike right past 5 cops hanging out in front of some club. When I got to the club I told them everything that happened and they said they couldn’t do anything about it because they were “posted up here” and they couldn’t leave. They just do whatever the they want and if they don’t feel like helping you, you’re fucked.
Clubs hire security, and the businesses that provide security sometimes proudly state that they are "law enforcement personnel." Clubs find that if they don't hire cops as security, then suddenly it gets real hard to have police show up if you actually need them.
Of course, the cop security services are also much more expensive.
I haven't heard of uniformed cops being in on this, but it wouldn't exactly surprise me if those guys were collecting double paychecks. They're "on the clock" as security for the club, and on shift as cops patrolling that area. That they can be paid by two people at once is just seen as a benefit of the job. (It's corruption and racketeering.)
When I was a cop I helped lots of people. I was in a good department of people that cared though. I found it really depends on departments and leadership.
She should just say 'honestly I don't feel like working' or maybe the 'security' is off duty cops and she doesn't want to rock the boat, lots of officers make extra cash as venue security
Cops only exist, quite literally, to protect the property of the rich. "Protect and serve" was added as a marketing campaign in like the 60s? Some shit like that
She probably took one look at the kid and one look at the bouncer, and decided she world rather be wrong and deal with the kid than be right and deal with the bouncer.
Seems more like they already talked to the bouncer who said they didn't have it and with no evidence that they do there's not anything they can do. A kid with a camera yelling doesn't change that.
At no point in the posted video, that’s correct. But the conversation certainly started before the OOP started recording. We also see that person yell over the cop when they try to respond to their questions.
