Windows were legally tinted however, I don’t know laws if you have to keep your window down. With that said he was lowering his window before the cop lost his patience.
He was also getting out of the car before the cops lost their patience

So what justifies being treated like an animal?
I assume tint is legal. It wouldn’t be in Calif.
He lowered window initially, but rolled back up and refused to roll back down. Just saying.
Here is screen shot of tint. You can’t see in as you would be able to under Ca rules.

No, If you are stupid don't be a cop. His windows have about a 15% window tint. Cops can't see what he is doing. He disopeyed the cops. Standard procedure to pull him out and handcuff him 100% standard procedure.

Obey police orders or suffer the fate. He should have gone to jail for sure. Any of us would have.
It was standard practice in East Germany by Stazi.
If a police officer said that in my classroom, his/her supervisor would know that in 5 minutes.

I'm just someone with an opinion like the rest of us. I'm not super familiar with law, or Florida law, for that matter. Watching the video as objectively as possible, I do believe he was being non-compliant. I know you don't agree, but I suppose that's the reason for the justice and court system. My reason for this is because the officer ordered him multiple times to "roll your window down". For myself and others that posted here, rolling your window down is not cracking it 3". We know he was playing games.

To my knowledge, rolling down the window was lawful order. This site I think explains it best.

That said, I just watched the video again, and I do agree that yanking him out right away and putting him on the ground seemed unnecessary. I would think the officer could have cuffed him on the feet and given him more opportunity to get out of the vehicle. I think a little more patience and less ego would have served everyone better here. I don't know the law, internal policies, or other relevant situational factors well enough to have a strong opinion how situations like this should be handled.

Yes Florida has a tint law, and that looks way too dark. Looks to be limousine tint, legal on the rear, but not the front.
They don't enforce tint laws much.

I didn't have a problem with it at all and wasn't offended or butt hurt. He didn't know me from Adam. He had about 35 years of experience as a cop and has seen about everything. It was his way to make sure he went home that night. I understood his stance and respectfully complied.

Nobody got hurt, nobody mouthed off, nobody had their rights violated.

Agree to disagree regarding rights not being violated.
 
That is frightening and disturbing that you think this is okay. You give way, way, way too much authority to police.
The legislature gives authority to police within the framework of the constitution. Right? In this case Florida said police can give you lawful orders during a traffic stop. You may not like it, but it remains to be true.

So you are saying might makes right?
Rolling up a window gives a cop, or anyone, cause to jerk you out of your car and throw you to the pavement?

What if it were your mother or father?
 
Rolling down the window during a legal traffic stop violates the 4th amendment? If there isn't already case law on this, I would be fascinated to see it.
Extending the stop is a 4th amendment violation.

The driver had rolled the window down and handed over his documents. He clearly told the officer to give him a ticket so he could be on his way. At that point he had complied. The officer chose to harass the driver instead. The stop was clearly extended for no reasonable reason.

Once that amendment is violated, everything after is poisonous tree.

I understand you think that. So will the Supreme Court take up this case?
 
I am guessing both parties regret their actions and would go a different direction again. If they don’t they are entitled or empowered morons.
