It's nice to see police are starting to be held accountable for their actions.

He was cleared of wrong doing, and rightly so. How about when a cop says keep your hands out of your pocket you do so, instead of acting like a nutter.

The cop would have immediately drawn his weapon if he felt that the victim's concealed hands were a threat. He drew his firearm as an act of intimidation when his demands weren't met.

Oops, I just saw the video and thought it was recent. Looks like he was cleared. http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Rohnert-Park-cop-cleared-in-gun-draw-encounter-6598662.php

Yes because he did nothing wrong. How is it so hard for adults to follow simple lawful commands keep you hands out of you pocket.
