[QUOTE="de-evoproject, post: 1301566, member: 14169"] My only real issue with the trooper in the video is not him helping with a traffic stop or even coming out quick and armed. Its the fact that he failed to identify himself immediately. If he had of just yelled, "Mass State Police, shut down the bike." or something to that effect on exiting the vehicle, he would have avoided almost all of the negative reaction. And to further shield himself he would have really been best off coming out with a badge to go with that gun. But exiting an unmarked car out of uniform with a weapon drawn and just yelling about "get off the motorcyle"... unacceptable. And to be fair, if you watch the full length video, this guy brought this situation upon himself (the police stop, not the court run for filming the officers). He was speeding, swerving thru traffic and riding extremely stupidly (I think he popped a wheelie at one point). He must share some blame for this stop being so aggressive. [/QUOTE]
