I find it interesting how some folks feel this is entirely an issue of policing gone wrong. There can be no fault for Tyreek here, apparently.
In Florida, the traffic code states that not following an officer’s lawful order or direction is a misdemeanor offense. It allows the police officer to remove Tyreek from his car and cuff him.
I find it interesting that you didn’t bother to consider what a “lawful order” is. If the cops order you to brush your teeth, do you have to comply?
I’m not being facetious. Seriously, if you wanna make a list of every order that you think the cops could give you that you would have to obey, I’d be interested in reading it. We’ll be happy to go through it point-by-point and show the civil rights issues contained therein.
Really? The advice I’ve seen for years at a traffic stop is to only roll down your window enough to talk to the officer and hand over paperwork and to close it immediately after. Along with not voluntarily providing any extra information and only answering questions as asked.
That’s for your safety, not theirs. You can argue the full tints, but the vehicle was surrounded by officers and many of them were aware this person was playing football that day.
In context this is one of stupidest escalations I’ve seen since ever and I can’t believe none of these other cops stopped it from happening. Give this a little more time and the rest of the guys are gonna get lit up along with the dude who’s on administrative leave.
Like in order to make this shit look ok, you have to full on compare the reaction to someone who was engaged in a crash or hit and run, has a warrant, or is a sovcit. They could run this dudes plates in 7 seconds and understand this dude wasnt a threat, they probably should have escorted him the rest of the way after they gave him his citation! This was a physical response to disrespect, ridiculousintimidation and you shouldn’t be ok with it.
It sounds like you think we should always lick the pigs’ boots because otherwise they’ll beat the hell out of us, regardless of what the Bill of Rights says. Is that an accurate summary?
It was the fully tinted window being all the way up that created the safety issue in the officer’s eyes.

How else will the cops plant drugs in your car if you don’t roll your windows down? Duh

It’s not illegal to roll a window up
Try doing it the next time you are at a traffic stop and the officer asks you not too. See how it works out for you.

Morality? Legality? Ew. Corruption and abusing your monopoly on violence to get away with illegally ordering civilians around? Based.
