    No normal citizen would roll up their window on the police. Give me a fucking break.

      Playing devil’s advocate. He may just not have wanted some paparazzi taking a picture of him while being pulled over? You could see in the video where the cop decides he’s going on a power trip instead of just doing his job

        Ok, and maybe the cop thinks he is trying to load a gun with the window up. Lots of what ifs.

      After they dragged him out he appeared to be on the phone to someone to make them aware of the situation. With the amount of police brutality and racism in America I don’t blame that reaction. Their actions here only justify it, too.
