[QUOTE="Feet Dry, post: 1815322, member: 1332"] Amazing. I find this statement to be both dangerous and foolish and one of a larger set of reasons why we have such an "us" and "them" mentality in this country towards law enforcement these days. Officers these days believe that because they have a gun and a badge and that they are on the clock that they are the baddest cats prowling the streets. There was a time when some of the older looking guys just ambling by were not. They grew up with John Wayne, family values and a strong belief in duty. They wanted to right the wrongs in the world and went to whatever hellhole they were sent. They listened to their uncle and did what he said. They were not in the movies or used as political pawns for the politicians. They trained hard and became good at their jobs. So, if what you have stated is true, and that an UC officer allowed a patrol unit to see the incident, identify what was happening, brake to a halt, put the vehicle in park, exit the vehicle, allow you to RUN AT HIM, tackle him and punch him in the face without identifiying himself as a UC, he is going to somehow be able to kick some older guys ass or shoot him for trying to stop the same seen action? If this action was seen by some older gentleman who thought he might still be able to right a wrong and balance some of his past transgretions, he would be moving to end the incident, not identify the guy or arrest anyone.
