Women should not be Street police officers. They could easily get overpowered. A lot of women Street police officers have giant egos and an inferiority complex. They lack physical power, speed and reflexes like a man does and their first instinct is to bully you verbally and then to pull out their gun. Get them off the street first to make our streets safer!

I feel like I've been way more training for other jobs then the police get to do for their badge, let's put them all back into pre school training
No wonder people hate cops!
Somebody said a blind man give him license 😂. U saying he driving hello?
Great job guys . Tax money well spent . We need more of these people off the streets.
Makes total sense cops don’t arrest criminals anymore—cause they don’t pay the bills—so instead of the junkie shooting up in front of my kids they took down this “very dangerous” blind man with a concealed Cain…well done Sheriff Barney! What’s next?? Shooting kids trying to get past homeless junkies to get to their buses? Don’t worry soon police and criminals will be the only armed people in America (that should be fun 🙄)
I hope theses officers feel guilty for what they did
I hope they lose their jobs over this awful display.
Awful police officers, what a disgrace.
I’m here scratching my head. Are these people still employed? They have zero common sense
THE POLICE ARE WRONG
Sue these **** back to the stone age
"Blind"
Somebody ask the feds
dirty cops
This is why you should never trust,help or talk to the police so corrupt
Goes to far intimidation
How ridiculous. Go find a real crime.
Women ☕
These people should be sued and fired. This is y there's so much mistrust for police and why I have very little if any respect for cops
Why don’t they go to the hood to verify who’s armed instead of harassing blind people.
I hate how the ranked officer says "you know what take him to jail for resisting" it's wrong and you can tell by the way he states it that it wasn't his first time charging innocent people… he does it in a way that is kind of scary like I bet that officer has shot and kill innocent person before I bet… I hope they are both fired and not allowed to resign ever!!
Lawsuit season
Fired!!! Scared cops are no use to anyone
