newtboysays...He explained right away what they already knew, they had no reasonable articulated suspicion of any specific crime required for detaining him, so no legal reason to hold him. They held him for over 1/2 hour after that, knowing they had no right to hold him at all.
Every officer involved should get a week off without pay during which they attend classes to learn their job.
I'm pretty certain he can win a lawsuit if he files one, and probably a six figure settlement to keep it out of court. These settlements need to start coming out of the police pension fund, not the general budget.

bobknight33says...Where are the classes to have this mental fitness?
Or do I need to be a cop / become corrupted / disillusioned quit and be reborn with a proper strength to hold my ground.
Or just lawyer up.
Oldie but goodie.

Drachen_Jagersays...He is being a bit of a dick to them, but Cops should be held to at least the standard of a middling-quality restaurant staff.
Cops are the ones who need to show respect. They don't like getting shot? Guess what? If you act politely and take each relationship as it comes rather than starting with an adversarial approach you don't anger people and it's that combination of anger and helplessness that leads to many cops getting shot.
So, Cops need retraining badly. If someone swears a blue streak at them it should be, "Yes sir. You have a good day too, sir. You're under arrest sir, please step this way and give me your hands so I can put these shiny bracelets on you."
If Cops REALLY were concerned about the dangers of the job they'd act like it instead of turning every single interaction with the public into a conflict that could end in a life or death situation.
surfingytsays...and interestingly being a police officer isn't that dangerous of a job despite the fearmongering the scared little boys try and peddle
