Don’t Call Me Dude

Bonus to the kid who kept the camera on.

I wonder what it takes to get a police officer fired for unnecessary, ongoing brutality and abuse on a kid. For having a skateboard and calling him “dude.”

    “someone is going to kill you.”

    Um. Yeah. That is totally in keeping with the gravity of the situation.

    What a total, total jackass.

    Uh, Officer Bumblebee? Maybe we’d respect the uniform more if you didn’t look like an extra from Bug’s Life, or the little girl from that video in the 90s. Or, maybe it’s ’cause you don’t have a stinger—should we send him a stinger?

    Seriously, that’s terrifying. A bad cop is what prevents kids from getting help when they need it. Yeesh.

    yeah, that’s in Baltimore…we have some issues here. the cop was suspended for this, but I haven’t heard anything about it since. what exactly does he mean by “are you from the county?” dude, I hadn’t realized there was such a tension between the city and Baltimore County…

    Does anyone know if a complaint was filed on Officer Bumblebee?

    ps. I HATE the part where he thrashes the kid on the ground. Completely uncalled for. Damn Baltimore….
