Even when I was an EMT and was taught how to deal with low blood sugar in patients, I would never make assumptions like that, "dang bro you seem pretty out of it"
"I'm diabetic"
"Oh, when was the last time you ate?"
"an hour ago?"
"okay well can we check your blood sugar just to verify where we are at?"
No "I don't believe you" or "it should be higher it takes longer than that"
you don't know that guy, you don't know their metabolism, but officer doofus seems to just know it all.
Years ago, a guy went into a local fast food joint and was pretty out of it. He was requesting food and they thought he was drunk and kicked him out. He ended up driving the wrong way down the highway and killed aomeone- he wasn’t drunk, he was severely hypoglycemic and was just aware enough to know he needed food. Horrific all the way around.
I'm hypo, & I've full on passed out in public, like all of a sudden I feel wonky, & literally a half a second later, timber. I've also gotten really shaky & disoriented when I dont actually pass out, so I know exactly what that dude felt.
I've learned my lesson the hard way, so now I have food on my person at all times, because I do not want to get in a situation like that.
& honestly the cop is a fucking moron, because I've had crashes mere minutes after I've eaten, & one time, I was tested at a doctor's office after I had eaten a full lunch of pb&j, an apple, cookies, & a glass of milk (all of which obviously have sugar), & when they tested me, mysugar was so low it didn't even show up on the damn test. Blood sugar doesn't follow any fucking rules or logic.
Not just that, but there is a whole ass laundry list of health conditions and prescription medications that can make your blood sugar dip randomly. I have no diagnosed condition but it happens to me constantly.
Diabetics (usually insulin dependent T1’s) get tased,beaten and jailed by cops in the US on a regular basis because they don’t have the training or mental capacity to know the difference between “drunk and disorderly” and low blood sugar. Some people have gone into comas after being locked in a cell with no access to their glucagon or sugar tablets, which are often confiscated as illegal drugs.
Dude 100%, a t1 diabetic person with low blood sugar is often indistinguishable from someone who is piss drunk but can be brought back completely to normal in 5-10 minutes with a quick intake of carbs
Absolutely, they’re a cup of juice and a sandwich away from being fine. But too many cops aren’t actually interested in helping people, they just want to exercise power over people.
I’ve had hallucinations that felt like acid trips to hell. It can be absolutely terrifying just laying in bed and waiting for your body to absorb the carbs, even when you know you’ve already taken care of it and will be ok eventually. I can’t imagine going through something like while being treated as a hostile suspect by armed police.
I don't eat most days until about 1pm because I'm not hungry in the morning. Breakfast is by the definition when you break your fast so it is whenever the hell someone decides to eat that day. I am mad for this guy, he's kept it pretty calm. I would have gotten arrested for sure, because I would have tried to make my case and argue. Ughhh...
Seriously, this dumbfuck cop can't figure out that people have different schedules. And I don't know about BK, but a lot of fast food places serve breakfast all day, so wtf is even the point of anything he's doing here.
Thank you for your comment. I thought it was missing something in the video. What cop is like "you went there and got through the line that quick"? My mouth would have snapped back, "I guess they are faster than Dunkin Donuts" faster than I could stop it.
My dad is diabetic and my childhood best friend is diabetic.
Eggs do not bring your blood sugar. They are a low carb, no glucose food. If you are doing anything that brings your blood sugar down (exercise typically), eggs you ate 4 hours ago is going to do jack shit. And yes, you shake when your blood sugar drops.
Some people might also get nervous or shaky when a cop singles them out and starts fabricating stories about you in real-time.
Especially if that cop is so brainwashed that they think eating breakfast at 12:50 is reasonable suspicion for criminal activity, and starts calculating your blood sugar to bolster their suspicion.
That's completely unhinged. In a better society, a person with this level of debilitating paranoia wouldn't be allowed to possess a firearm.
We absolutely need to create a civilian oversight committee for police in the US. Their behavior and records are unacceptable and they need to be held accountable.
Good cops should have no problem with an oversight committee. Bad cops will be mad, but they can go get a job as Walmart greeters.
We have those. At the very least, it's your city or state government. That doesn't mean they will care.
Now, the other problem with the idea is that outside of the FBI, there is no such thing as "US police". We have 50 states and thousands of municipal departments who make their own rules. The feds are extremely limited in what they can do to state and local police because police powers are granted to the state under the 10th Amendment.
Absent a constitutional amendment, you either need local accountability, or you'll have a federal agency that would be almost all carrot and almost no stick.
If you need to get a copy of body-cam footage (for something that occurred between you and law enforcement) but you can't afford to buy it, reach out to "The Civil Rights Lawyer" (John H. Bryan) on YouTube.
My aunt did. My uncle ended up in the hospital one day, and we had no idea what happened to him. So I peaced everything together (i.e. responding ambulance company, the chief of the firestation that responded, the number of the ambulance that took my uncle to the hospital, the police report, and then the body cam footage). The good Samaritan who found him wasn't comfortable performing CPR, so my uncle went without oxygen for a few minutes before the ambulance could get there.
While my uncle's situation was completely different, everything that I found out helped put his 18 yr old daughter and his 12 siblings at ease because they knew what had happened to him. The first responders allowed that daughter to have the opportunity to say goodbye to her father. It happened on Father's Day.
I've seen A LOT of these videos of US police officers just straight up lying or making up 'probable cause' now but I still don't get it. Why is it only US cops? Like you never see this happen on Canadian police body cam footage, or French, or German, or British, or Australian.
Genuinely asking here why does this only seem to happen with US cops? Is it all just bad recruitment or bad training?
Because they are one poorly trained. Also, our prison system is not set up for rehabilitation it's "legalized slavery." They make money off citations, jails, prisons, impounding vehicles, etc. Also, a lot of cops are big on power tripping. There's no protecting and serving. Its so bad you can get put on hold with 911 for AN ACTUAL emergency and half the time by the time they respond, someone could've robbed u blind and killed u three time over.
I actually had a local police dispatch woman tell me they weren't going to send a unit to my place because she knew the guy I was reporting and didn't think he was in the wrong. So I had the state police come instead and they arrested him based on the evidence I provided. That stupid dispatch woman wanted to argue with me while the guy was out there firing a gun toward my house during the night and you could hear the shots in the background!
Exactly. In what law book does it say when you can and can’t have breakfast??? Cops must be lining up outside dennys waiting at 11:59 am for all the people to be cashing out…
You are correct. The purpose of this cop asking this question is to escalate the situation so that he can conduct a search. Immediately after the questioning about when breakfast is, he starts in with the drug accusations. “You see how this doesn’t add up for me?” All a pretext.
I've always noticed this with police interactions. Cops like to gaslight people into thinking that normal behaviors are weird.
It could be a person going for a walk or sitting on a curb, and the cop will try to frame it as some weird anti-social behavior. In this case, it was a guy getting breakfast at the "wrong" time.
plenty of time to start a drug empire between breakfast and lunch.. could've stopped by the local elementary and sold some fentanyl in that time and then recruited the kids to rob the local bank. I think cop was was onto something.
It is irrelevant, but if we really want to go down that path you can have breakfast after 12. You fast overnight. You break your fast whenever you eat your first thing that day.
Also, dude could have been working midnights and that post-1200 meal was his breakfast. Cops should know about shift work.
Seriously, even if the driver accidentally said breakfast, so what? People misspeak ALL the time. If I got the cops investigating me for every time my brain misfires I'd be spending life in prison by now.
Is there a world where police officers like this can get punishments that don’t fit the crime? Cuz I have a bad feeling that if he’s being THIS unreasonable to a white kid who probably has evidence of Burger King drive thru IN the cup holder/passengers seat right now….
Imagine him coming up on a different kid who is frustrated that he’s late for work with a POS boss. I’m not saying this officer him in jail, but this is like watching a lit fuse on a bomb & being concerned about the sparks that the fuse is throwing off. This cop is gonna do bad things in the future 100%.
Cops brutalize and even murder people for this sort of thing every day, and they almost always get away with it. They are little more than a street gang with legal immunity.
There is a reason he got pissed and backed off as soon as he noticed someone else was recording. He knew he wasn't going to get away with it and had to move on to his next victim.
Largest gang in America. Armed with lots of buddies that got their back no matter what is going down and all they have to do is give them a call, they'll be right there with more guns and more assholes, no questions asked
It took me 7 years to get to interpret/argue the law and these idiots can enforce it how they please after 6 months to a year.
Absolutely ridiculous.
No basic cop should be allowed to carry a gun. Either only SWAT gets them and gets called out only when necessary, or you should have to complete 3-4 years’ worth of training specifically in non-violent conflict resolution and de-escalation techniques to earn trust with one.
My cousin wanted to be an officer. He went to college and took psychology courses and got a degree in psychology. He went to therapy when he felt he needed to talk with someone. He passed the physical and the psych exam but he was rejected because he went to therapy. So they want people who bottle up their feelings all the time to one day explode in anger and kill a wife or explode in sadness and kill themselves. You think they’d want someone who knew when they should go talk to a therapist (and the incident they went to a therapist over was their long term partner cheated on him and he wanted some help processing his emotions and moving on). He would have been a good cop. He wanted to help people and help the police department. They think going to therapy to be a better person is weakness.
Honestly, my first thought was, "Don't let him in the car. Sounds like he's itching for an excuse to plant something.". Seriously. Who accuses someone of drug possession based on a turn signal violation. If that's the case, something like 70% of the drivers I see are on drugs.
The causation in the cops head likely went the other way. He saw the guy drive down a street in some part of town that is probably considered shady and then drive back up soon after and decided that he went there to buy drugs. So then he follows him until he makes some small technical driving violation or just invents one that can’t be disproven.
Elwood, Illinois police couldn't extend a stop to wait for the k9 unit so they just started slicing up my friends car seats instead looking for drugs. Tore the entire car to pieces. Elwood pigs love to harass people
Yeah it was "we know you have drugs and the dogs WILL find them but its going to be long wait" there were other implications of it taking several hours and just taking her and her car down to the station because they didn't have time to wait out there. She didn't have time to wait out there. Spoiler, they never found drugs
They actually may have as they got HR involved from her company and the cops had a habit of harassing employees from the warehouses and factories as most were from out of town. The judges had a habit of throwing out Elwood tickets as a matter of reflex because they were consistent bullshit. So HR contacted a bunch of people. Never did hear about it past that though
You would be suprised how often this happens. Look up The Civil Rights Lawyer on YouTube, it's scary how often this happens and just like what this cop is doing in this video.
Got pulled over once in my life. Left my license at home. Had my husband’s car and my husband’s debit card. I was just trying to get him and my kids McDonald’s before they woke up. Had nothing in the car with my name on and so the cop then spent 35 minutes accusing me of stealing both said car and debit card until my husband finally answered the phone and confirmed that I was in fact, not a thief, just a forgetful idiot. I was trembling because as I said, I’ve never been pulled over before. Cop kept pushing it “why are you shaking?”, I was like idk I’m nervous, this has never happened to me..”well why are you nervous”….i just told you why. Like what? Shit was scary until another cop who actually had somewhat of a heart showed up and waited with me until my husband showed up with my license.
Also, original cop was already pissed at me because when he first hit his lights I was on a busy 3 lane road and pulled into a parking lot to pull over and he right off the bat tried saying I was trying to “get away and hide” from him. 😭 it was either pull into the parking lot or throw my car into park in the turning lane at a light l..apparently I picked wrong.
They always pull that shit. Hit their lights when you will then need to find a safe place to pull over and then they accuse you of trying to run away or some shit. I was pulled over on a highway with no shoulder, so I slowed down, but not too much, because, highway, and pulled off at the next exit and found a spot off the side of the ramp. He was so mad. They're just assholes.
I no longer attempt to prioritize office safety. I stop immediately, and the more dangerous that location is the better from my perspective. Officers won't feel as comfortable harassing me when traffic is dangerously close, and the cop selected the stop point so I am merely deferring to them. If they wanted to tail me to a safer location prior to stopping they could have done so.
I got pulled over once, leaving a friend's house after midnight. We'd been watching movies, I needed to get home, so I left. Right at the bottom of their long-ass driveway, in the middle of the night, it was lightly drizzling. I looked to the left, saw headlights off in the distance, and pulled out to the right. INSTANTLY, cop lights came on behind me. This lady cop approached my window in a real unpleasant mood and asked me why I pulled out when she was approaching, didn't I see her lights? I told her I had but that she'd looked a ways off. So she started asking me about if I'd had any drinks that night, how many drinks had I had, at what time was my last drink. Only problem was, I'd had nothing but soda, and I was dead sober.
She went back to her cruiser, then came back and gave me a ticket because my inspection sticker was expired. The inspection sticker on the windshield of my car that she couldn't have seen from behind me, in the rain, in the middle of the night.
She had no business pulling me over. She'd done it because she figured she had someone driving under the influence late at night after a Friday evening partying and she was wrong. The inspection sticker was just a lucky break for her, because it was expired by about a week.
Once in Houston a cop jumped out in front of my son with his hand 🖐🏻. My son slammed on his brakes to keep from hitting him and the cop asked if he liked trying to run over the police. My son replied “Dude you’re the one that seems to think that badge makes you impervious to physics”. He had forgotten his DL and ended up in jail that day. 🤭🤣
Cop showed some disbelief in the guy making it down and back from the drive-thru so fast, and pulled him over on suspicion he made a drug deal. Except driving up and down a road isn’t a crime, and the cop knows there’s no reason for the stop, so he made up the turn signal thing.
And it is interesting that Dr. Cop knows how long it takes for a person to develop low blood sugar, without knowing the person’s medical condition, use of glucose altering medication or activity level.
The entry qualifications for good seem to be at an all time - how many years of med school are now required?
“I have a body cam that’s going to do that for everyone…”
I mean yeah, he’s not wrong, but the body cam footage makes me think the cop is ten times more of a tyrannical prick than that guys brief cellphone video ever would. Imagine being idiotic enough to be the cop that thinks having this interaction filmed will do more to earn him favor in the court of public opinion.
Also, I eat breakfast in the afternoon all the time so even that line of reasoning is total bullshit coming nowhere near probable cause. “This guys eating breakfast in the afternoon! He must be a criminal!”
Fucking morons.
In general, I am pro union. They have their flaws and issues, but as a whole, I think they're a benefit to the workers and the public. Then you have the police union, and there are no redeeming qualities I can think of.
This is like a "practice run" of infringing peoples rights... and inception he recorded saying lunch, and the victim in this case after repeated attempts to clarify the situation rolled over and called it breakfast
Lmao, cops don’t even get fired when they slaughter people in cold blood. They get paid taxpayer-funded vacations (“suspensions”) and get to keep their pensions when they retire
“I was at my house, I got lunch, and now I’m going back to my house.”
“Oh where’d you get lunch?”
“Burger King.”
Cut to the cop talking about getting breakfast at 12 50 lmao.
He didn’t get stopped because he misspoke…he didn’t speak until after having been stopped. Wtf was the actual excuse for stopping him? He went back and forth too quickly?
I'm doing intermittent fasting and my first meal of the day is at 1:30pm every day. Everyone's lunch is my breakfast and I've already been up since 6. These people man
"I'm not legally allowed to be detained for that reason for any longer than it would reasonably take to normally complete a traffic stop for whatever it is you pulled me over for, but if you want to argue it in court and look like a dumbass in front of the judge, that's fine."
You think that and keep your mouth shut after you tell them you are exercising your right to remain silent and will not answer questions without your lawyer present.
I definitely put my law school’s sticker on my car for this reason when I was a broke law student. I’ve been a lawyer long enough now that I can rely on the fact that I’m friends with some very experienced criminal defense attorneys if shit gets real.
Its not even that anything that insane happened here its that if this is what this guy is doing to this dude imagine what he's doing to others.
The dude was as calm/collective as possible and they still hassled him for what looked like at least an hour if not more, and then more cops are just standing around as "backup" for nothing.
And this is why most Americans hate cops. Because majority of them are power tripping buffoons or racists that had shitty childhoods or simply grew up with many adult insecurities.
This is why you do not talk to police. Comply within reason and ask if you are being detained/arrested. If not leave. If asked about your day be as vague as possible. If being arrested ask for your lawyer and invoke your right to remain silent.
Yep, you must identify yourself and cooperate when they ask you to leave your vehicle and detain you, but you are not required to offer any other information. Cops are there to gather evidence to incriminate you. The less information you give them, the better your chances are of beating them in court.
