[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 2233364, member: 229"] I don't think loud music is a cuff-able offense (he also didn't seem to be resisting arrest which is what the officers said to explain why he was treated like he was). If the loud music was interfering with the police business going on at the house, then I can see cause to go tell him to turn it down or issue a citation, but it sounds like he exchanges words with them (and I can't tell what it is - I'm going to go out on a limb and say that it was probably trash talking). If that's the case, then I'd say the officers are justified in coming over and cuffing him for obstruction. That being said, they could have just not approached the dog and called animal control to deal with it. But with whatever else they had going on in the big bust across the street, I can see why they were a little nervous with having to waste manpower on an idiot with an agenda and his dog. Entire situation sucks all around. [/QUOTE]
