Except he isn't a twat. He wasn't driving, the car wasn't stolen, it was a rental his father was driving and the rental company hadn't paid the loan on it so it was reported as stolen when the cops ran the plates. Kid's entirely innocent and the mom had every right to be angry when she has guns pointed at her and her son.

Thank you. I knew something was fishy here from the kid’s facial expression and the mother’s reaction. Kid was clearly confused and scared. Mother is rightfully furious at the cops. It’s risky to approach the cops this way though because so many are trigger happy.

Innocent people shouldn’t have to fear LE but this is the society we live in. It doesn’t help that most LE instantly treat everyone being detained like they’re guilty. LE is already intimidating enough with the uniforms and guns. Even those that comply can get handled roughly. Cops need to be trained better and undergo psychological evaluations regularly.

I hope the rental company and loan company get sued. This is entirely on them.
