Upset driver discussion - split from pic/vid thread

[puckluck2]

I don't see anything wrong with what he did. The dude is getting a $500 ticket and a camera is filming it? It's no surprise he would be upset. Also funny how the video starts at the time it does and doesn't show the whole thing.

I bet Fatty mcfat pants egged him on.

Where did 'reckless driving" come from? Even if it was a speeding ticket that doesn't mean it's reckless driving. You could drive 130 on Deerfoot and not be reckless. You could drive 100 on Glenmore and not be reckless.

The camera guy was trying to start a situation, don't see why you are defending him.

The punk was egging the camera man ("bet you wanna put it in my car") to stick his camera in the car so he could break it, which I might add was long before the ticket is five hundred dollars comment.

He didn't have the camera in his car and he did his best to be respectful dispite the lame attempts at insults from the punk.

The punk was upset that he got caught breaking the law and that this video would publicly shame him. Had he taken the ticket and said nothing it would have been over quickly.

The fat old goof ball was looking for trouble putting that camera in the young scholar's face. Because he is old he had no respect for the young scholar. Because old age caused him to be a fat tub of lard. Because he was old. This wouldn't have happened if the camera man was young.

I would really like to see the whole video clip. I doubt it just starts with the the "punk" saying those things to the camera guy.

Sure, the "punk" could of acted in a better way, but the same things goes for the camera man, imo.

The camera guys job was likely go and find people pissed off and if they are not pissed off, make them pissed off.

Cameraman had no reason to be there, he put himself in that situation so saying the punk was egging him on is backwards. camera guy was only there to egg on the punk first.

saying he should have taken the ticket and said nothing so it would have been over... same can be said of the camera, why was he there? if he wasn't there the driver would have taken his ticket and gone, he seemed just fine with the cop not giving him any attitude.

start filming people and then act surprised and cry about it when they tell you to f off

Just because you call the kid a punk over and over again, doesn't make you right.

The driver created the situation between himself and the Police officer. The camera guy created the situation between himself and the driver. The "punk" was visibly upset and the guy with the camera kept going, making a bad situation worse. He got the footage he "needed" step away and let the cop finish writing up the ticket and move on. It's really that simple. He doesn't need to be so close.

Who said I was right? It's my view of the driver and his actions and it's not changing.

If the camera man was in the way, the officer would not have been able to hand the ticket over to the driver to sign. The cop gave him his ticket and said drive carefully. Did he drive away when he had a chance? Nope. He chose to continue with his lame insults towards the camera man in some attempt to get the last word.

I can't help but wonder if the OP's steadfast and unsupported view of "the punk" is rooted in racism?

[Bill Bumface]

Dammit, was just coming to post that the only thing clear cut here is that Dion is a huge racist, and probably still upset he might not get a seat at the front of the bus all the time, but you beat me. Although I was mostly going to be joking. Mostly.

[DuffMan]

lame.

Cops, Cheaters, etc. etc. have really dulled my entertainment satisfaction on this one.

[wooohooo]

This guy reminds me of the hide your wife, hide your kids guy
