That one caught me off guard 😆 Nearly had Arizona iced tea squirt out my nose

why do you keep ice tea in your nose?

The sound effect made my ice tea squirt out my nose.

I prefer unhealthy sugary ice tea like Lipton, Brisk, etc.

Yup, they confiscated my bottle of unopened Iced Tea..., Not sure how that is supposed to make any one feel safe, more like violated and stolen from....
I wasn't even taking it on the plane, just to drink during my more-than-an-hour wait, until my plane showed up.

I got arrested once for going into a store and trying to buy an iced tea.

Update: the system "works!" After only two years this man has been cleared of the crime of drinking iced tea in a parking lot.

LMAO. Wow the double-standard is strong with this one.


So you'll defend this - in your own words - victim, of police harassment..

And even openly question & scold the officer as WORTHLESS..

For trying to bring trumped up Trepassing charges against him..

However, in the Arizona Iced Tea scenario..

A scenario which is nearly almost precisely the same..

You'll take the exact OPPOSITE stance..

And defend the clearly UNCONSTITUTIONALLY wrong officer..

And deride the victim for his objection to an illegal detention, search & seizure and arrest?

Please explain yourself, Lantern

Please explain why you'd treat - basically the same situation - in two vastly different ways.

*grabs popcorn*

See, you're a cop... gloating and laughing about lying.

That's extremely worrisome but..

-- I'll be polite here for a bit --

Great job, Lantern! You accomplished your job, in a clever way, that DEESCALATED the situation.

Now could you please explain..

Why should I ever trust a cop NOT to lie?

Why should I obey an order that COULD be based on a complete falsehood, fabrication, or bold-faced lie?

Why should I allow myself to be harassed or intimidated, even tho I know I'm completely within my rights as a "citizen" or "tax-payer"?

This happened in April 2013. In 2014 there was a deal on the table the required Mr. Beatty to plead guilty to lesser charges. He refused. Early in 2015 a judge ruled that the arrest was unconstitutional and all charges were dropped.

Just because the can said something does not mean ice tea in in the can.

The guy did not comply with the cop. His loss.
