I saw somewhere that a man, on the second story of his house, was told he was under arrest and to come down. He filed a lawsuit (I believe) and the judge then tried to say he was "not under arrest". Damn insane system we have.

[@FoldupKibbles26]

@@shannonp4037 I vaguely remember that. Think the argument was you're not under arrest until after the officer has physically controlled you. So "You're under arrest." really meant "I'm going to place you under arrest, but the actual arrest starts when you got handcuffs on.". Could be misremembering that bs case though. Remember the cops that were chasing another car using lights and sirens, and the car flipped over and caught fire but the cops just turned down a street, said they had it coming and didn't render aid or call an ambulance? Courts said that they didn't have a duty to render aid since the suspect wasn't being detained. Lights and sirens mean pull over, I'm gonna detain you, but since they never actually got to the point of putting him in cuffs he wasn't technically detained so no aid was required.

They aren't sworn to protect us. They're sworn to protect the Constitution and the laws. They're Law ENFORCEMENT. Their job is to find laws that are broken and the people who have broken them. According to the Supreme Court, the ONLY people that must be protected by cops are those already in custody! For example: If they arrest you, they must protect you. Put on your seatbelt in their squad car, make sure the A/C is on, ask you if you need medical attention. They don't normally even WANT to get you medical attention, because it means they have to wait longer to take you to jail.

This exact thing happened to me about 15 years ago in Richmond, VA. Sitting at a red light at 11:30pm when three cruisers just appear from all directions and block me in at the light. A bunch of dudes jump out with guns drawn and then before I really processed it all, the biggest cop I have ever seen in my life pulled me through my driver's side window (the door latch had broken, cheap college kid) like I was a tiny doll. Laid face down in the middle of an intersection on the Northside while cops pulled up from every direction and jumped out to assist. Eventually they stood me up and held me against the cruiser while they radio'd dispatch for the description again. Black male, short hair or bald, late 30s to early 40s, 5'6" - 5'8", 150lbs, red hoodie and black shorts. Me, a fluffy 6'2" 230lb mixed dude in his early 20s with a big dumb brillow pad for hair, that shitty 20-something beard we all try to grow, dressed in formal attire for a wedding I was working. That was a pretty awkward five minutes waiting for a supervisor to come and explain to me that their suspect had broken into multiple vehicles that night and was thought to have stolen a vehicle that was "identical" to mine. As he showed up it came out over the radio that they had apprehended the dude about twenty minutes earlier in another part of the city. I'll never forget that cop tossing me like a ragdoll. I was not a small guy. This was 15 years ago and ever since then I've often wondered how many people have had similar, inexplicable experiences with the police. Every time I see something like this I'm reminded of how baffling it was to hear the tiny voice on their shoulders squawk out the description of a man who I most certainly could not be. Nothing ever came of it; I got a letter in the mail a few weeks later from some sergeant in public relations or some shit thanking me for my understanding. I was maybe 19 then and stuff like this wasn't as publicized so it didn't seem like something worth keeping. I wish I still had it, but you can only wipe your ass with something so many times before you can't keep it anymore.
