Unfortunately for them, that protester happened to be William Gude, the founder of filmthepolicela.com.

William G is the GOAT. An insomniac that goes outside at night in the LAPD Hollywood Division and films them making questionable stops. He also goes to the station and films the front desk person sleeping. Goes to the parking lot and takes pictures of the personal vehicles with illegal tint and missing license plates (same stuff the police use to stop people).

He then files complaints. Lots of them.

His son was murdered and the LAPD botched the investigation. William G found shell casings they missed.

I have personally sent him cash to pay for scooters, snacks, etc

This is both inspiring and terribly terribly sad.

Hadn't heard of this guy but you sold me. He sounds amazing.

Something about this in no way reminds me of Russian invaders looting peoples homes in Ukraine.

ACAB so naturally they bully.

They don't want to get hit with drinks, so they illegally search and seize. Sounds like how you get more violence.

They’re just thirsty and lazy and unafraid of the people outnumbering the hell out of them.

Media not loading, can we get a link ? 🔗

They were full in a tied up grocery bag not even in his hands. It's cut and dry unlawful seizure.

Stealing the drinks to get the dna off of the rim.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 23 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

If they wanted to drink some DNA they shoulda just sucked the dude off.

[–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

That’s what half of the blank profiles on Grindr are. On duty cops looking to suck or be sucked.

I think he said it was his drinks? Not 100% sure.

[–] Dearth@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like a convenient store plastic bag of drinks

Video isn't loading for me, sadly.
