Now let's compare European and Australian native wildlife. Europe just has been beating their native populations down for millennia. No surprise they're embracing all of the societal controls.

I've had so many crashes on Fallout London. I know it's free. So many. I'm still playing it.

If they can't see in your vehicle, they can tell you to exit the vehicle. If you give off a hostile vibe they can tell you to exit the vehicle. Having overly dark tint creates a scenario where they cannot see what is going on inside the vehicle. I have seen cops pull out their guns and shout at people to get out of the car from 20 ft away because they couldn't see inside. I'm not saying that's the right response, I'm just saying that there are more court-accepted reasons that an officer can pull you out of your vehicle "for their safety".

Thanks. Yeah they didn't even think about de-escalation.

There are a lot of people who want to end qualified immunity and reform many realities of policing today. I am describing the reality today. There's a reason I say I'm interested in police accountability/transparency.

The clip I saw at the link looked like it was edited right there, I'd love to see the raw video. It could have been too quick, it could have been longer. I don't know.

I am a huge police accountability buff. But also, law matters, and court rulings matter. If police order you out of your car for their safety (in the US), you have to comply. If you do not, they are authorized to use force to pull you out and almost never do that gently. Cops absolutely use excessive force all the time, so not doing things that specifically give them permission would be smart. Him rolling up his tinted windows and refusing to get out of the car are what made this happen.
