[QUOTE="elwoodtrix, post: 4360273, member: 7614"] @1:05, Mr. Vu says "I don't know what you're talking about" @1:15, he say's "me, she's hitting me, you see" @1:30 cop says "I don't think you're understanding what I'm saying" then he gets frustrating, lets Mr. Vu get out of the car, then the wife gets out. They try to explain. Cop starts again with hand signing/language that utterly doesn't help. @3:23 he finally calls for backup and DOESN't request a translator or let them know he's having difficulty with the language barrier, as Mr. Vu told him he doesn't understand what the cop is saying, and recognizes that he knows that they don't understand. Cop keeps saying "you can't U turn", They're trying to tell him they were turning left to the street. The wife tries to explain @3:39, with her broken english, that they were waiting to turn, not u-turn, to go straight. They were the 3rd car in line to turn. That's probably when the lady in the other car hit them as she was probably making the u-turn. Cop won't listen, refuses to listen, doesn't understand himself, gets annoyed because he thinks he's right, turns away and Mr. Vu taps him to get his attention as he's frustrated that the cop won't listen to his explanation. Then Bam, barney "sweeps the leg", in midair, orders Mr. Vu, "get on the ground", smashing him head first. edit: calling Asians oriental is, by definition, offensive. pluralOrientals 1 dated, usually offensive; see usage paragraph below [B]: [/B][URL='https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Asian#h2']asian[/URL] especially [B]: [/B]one who is a native of east Asia or is of east Asian descent 2 [B]: [/B][URL='https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/oriental%20rug']oriental rug[/URL] 3 [B]: [/B][URL='https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/oriental%20shorthair']oriental shorthair[/URL] [IMG]https://www.merriam-webster.com/dist-cross-dungarees/2024-11-06--18-04-05-ksk06/images/svg/redesign/exclamation-icon.svg[/IMG] Usage of Oriental The noun [I]Oriental[/I] has a long history of association with [URL='https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/colonialism']colonialism[/URL] and with language that [URL='https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/other#h5']others[/URL] and [URL='https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/exoticize']exoticizes[/URL] people of various Asian identities.
