In the video below, Florida Deputy Sheriff Andy Cox typifies the role of current cops: Armed Revenue-Collecting Bully.
Stopped for not having the correct sticker on his license plate, the driver exits his large truck and is asked for his drivers license, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance. When the driver reaches back into his truck to look for his papers, here’s basically how the encounter ensued:
Cop: Why are you carrying a gun?
Civilian: I always carry it.
Cop: Put your hands on the vehicle or I’ll shoot you in the f*cking back!
