YouTube Shorts is throwing me in a rabbit hole of policeman seemingly overstepping the boundaries when stopping citizens for a routine check. The discussions often revolve around asking and not wanting to show their ID (“unless you can tell me what crime you accuse me of”). Is there a particular reason why they’re so hesitant to present their ID to the police officer? It only seems to escalate the situation. In Belgium I don’t see the harm in showing my ID when I’m stopping by a police officer. (added url as an example)
So your solution is to just let the police continue to harass people?
If the people have done nothing wrong then the cop should just fuck off and leave honest hardworking people alone.
Maybe the cops could learn a little on how to be honest or hardworking either one.
I didn’t say anything about a solution, and I agree that’s what the cop should do. That just ain’t what happens a lot of the time.
