The Police Dept response

After watching this bodycam clip, do you think the police actions were justified?

@TaraBull808 It was an unlawful stop. Should have never happened. Wipers on light on.. it was not raining and daytime. Please tell me why the officer escalated the stop to resisting arrest just to add a justification to his unlawful stop.

@TaraBull808 I'm usually very reluctant to condemn police--they have a very dangerous job--but yeah. Totally excessive use of force. Completely unwarranted violence. I hope this guy sues and gets millions. He deserves it.

@TaraBull808 I’m 100% always back the blue. In this case i throw the bs flag on the officer. Inclement weather and no lights on? It clearly was not raining. This officer was looking to arrest this kid.

@TaraBull808 What context justifies a punch in the face of a man that sits in his car motionless. What an idiot.

@TaraBull808 This despicable loser is the reason why officers act like scumbags and have no public trust. It starts from the top down.

@TaraBull808 "I cant see where his hands are" 😂😂😂😂

@TaraBull808 I back the blue but not those Blue. Fuck those guys they need to rot in jail.

@TaraBull808 Police trying to gaslight the public. Dude did not deserve any of that mistreatment. I'll die on this hill.

@TaraBull808 Holy crap. I thought that was a fake video at first. Guess which cops will be suspended soon? And if that young man is smart, he won’t have to work for a very long time. Get yourself a good lawyer young man.

@TaraBull808 The cop pulled him over to go on a fishing expedition to look for greater crimes. This type of policing needs to stop.

@TaraBull808 Multiple warnings He didn't comply He argued He dropped his hands Police officers aren't going to risk getting shot ... So once it's on its on Had he stepped out of the car during any of 10 commands it never would have got to this

@TaraBull808 Ha! Idiot reporter tried to play the race card while interviewing the black sheriff. Also, a couple of the officers on the scene were black. How stupid.

@TaraBull808 This is called Copsplaining.

@TaraBull808 I’m not sure this cop realizes he admitted the cops lied on their police reports about the excessive force. Millions down the drain from excessive force again.

@TaraBull808 Wait fire all of these guys and their boss. They had no right at all do that. And for him to say they did their officer duty lawful duty just shows me they retards and don’t even know their own law.

@TaraBull808 Bleed these pigs for millions. Unfortunately this is the only language they understand.

@TaraBull808 When a person doesn’t comply on such a stupid thing that would have been a fine, the officer is right to assume he or she has something to hide

@TaraBull808 What I don’t understand is why he only slapped him once lol

@TaraBull808 Political bullshit word salad by this puke! Can’t see his hands. Reaching for a knife on the floorboard is an action! Huge difference from just sitting…

@TaraBull808 The context of the video should tell you everything you need to know. But the fake journalist is not honest, and presses the narrative.

@TaraBull808 This guy is pretty good.

@TaraBull808 I'm sick of this narcissistic LEO BULLSHIT.

@TaraBull808 Resisting arrest without grounds to warrant an arrest. This clip is maddening and these officers should be fired immediately!

@TaraBull808 No, we definitely saw the police being violent to a non-violent person. WTF.

@TaraBull808 If a cop did that to me I’d be waiting for him in his local watering hole.

@TaraBull808 Everything was SOP.. standard operating procedure Driver refused to comply.. then he refused to exit the car Punch to the head? No.. in police training it’s a strike to retards head to stun him as he may have a weapon or want to reach for one while being removed Just comply 🤡

@TaraBull808 This guy is so full of shit. The people are tired of this copsplaining bill shit!

@TaraBull808 So will he apologize to the tax-paying citizens of Jacksonville who will now be on the hook for what those officers did? Entitled piece of 💩

The additional body cam shows a different side of this. The camera interior was of him at a perfect angle and didn't show his behavior before the window break. He was stopped for headlights on in inclement weather (didn't look like raining) and wearing no seatbelt. My father and his friend (white men in their 80s) got tickets for no seatbelts and 8yrs ago. You follow their instructions and fight ticket in court otherwise end up in cuffs. He was resisting and could have been armed, LEOs have been killed in stops like this.

@TaraBull808 Simple compliance.

@TaraBull808 That Sherriff is FULL of SHIT!! CLEARLY his Deputies went straight to VIOLENCE!!

@TaraBull808 Trying to justify somethin that has no justification. That socalled police officer is a disgrace. He assaulted an unarmed man for no reason. He needs to be charged himself for his actions. He has no business carrying a gun n badge.

@TaraBull808 What did he do to get pulled over and why didn’t he roll down the window for the officers? IMO, there’s more to this story than we’re led to believe.

@TaraBull808 It has always been this way.Officers get shot by people who don’t follow commands. Police aren’t always great people, but it is a hard job.
