Secondly you only see part of the encounter. I can promise you he told that intoxicated guy mulitple times to not get close to him.
That shit happens all the time for what ever reason when someone is intoxicated they feel the need to get close to my face when im interviewing them.

Here's another. This guy is charged with assault because he evidently pointed his finger at a cop.
"A Fredericksburg man faces two counts of assault for allegedly pointing his finger at police officers, another example of how any behavior except complete subservience to law enforcement is now being treated as a crime.
David Loveless, who has no criminal record, was arrested and handcuffed last week after he allegedly made a hand gesture at police who had testified against his son in a robbery case.
He now faces two counts of assault on a law enforcement officer by way of intimidation and two counts of obstruction of justice.
Police spokesperson Natatia Bledsoe claimed Loveless made a gun gesture at police officers, but Loveless denies making any kind of gesture at all.
“I don’t see how I was pointing my finger,” Loveless told ABC7. ” If anything I was reaching into my pocket to get a pack of cigarettes. If that’s what they saw, they have a vivid imagination.”
As we have previously highlighted, almost weekly there is a new case of someone being arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer merely for speaking out, making a gesture, or attempting to protect themselves.
Indeed, in some cases a person who is brutally beaten by cops is subsequently charged with assaulting a police officer."

Edit: Just watched the rest of this. What really makes this case is the fact that the two officers he did it to, were witnesses against his son in a robbery case. Makes sense to me. We get our lives threatened daily.Last edited by Machx2; 03-27-2012, 09:45 AM.
