    Background: shouting at a cop for violating the rights of a woman and harassing her to tears in an attempt to force her to divulge what she had done that night to implicate herself.

    Cop: shut up

    Me: … or what, are you going to arrest me?

    Cop: <arrests me>

      I mean… you hadn’t committed a crime? So like… Settlement? Maybe?

      Or maybe settlement for the lady?

      Probably not that would imply cops have consequences for their actions.

        I was charged with resisting/hindering arrest with the justification the officer had to direct his attention at me.

        It was enough to justify, or rather the words of the officer claiming that provided sufficient justification …

        They body camera footage “couldn’t be found” and the charges were dropped.

        I opted for an apology and a go fuck yourself, I also wave at the officer after concerts when I see him and give him the finger. Idk if he remembers me but I remember him. Lmao.

        So lose, win.
