Well all the blather above aside. He threatened a Police officer - it was in view of highly credible witnesses - I am sure a few thousand dollars towards an anger manager group for funding may and only may teach him a lesson regarding decorum and not to threaten persons with physical harm.

I agree. While I have no problem in standing up for my rights and forcing police and govt agents to comply with their own laws I am never mean or ignorant about it and I don't get pepper-sprayed or jailed for it either.
And that is why i referred to it as blather - not to insult but to bring it to your attention that it was off topic. He threatened a Police office with bodily harm - He needs to learn that is not tolerated in a western democracy - I am basing that upon he being a recent immigrant, and on that I may be in error. Regardless if he has been in Canada for quite some time, or born and raised here the same would still apply.
Allow me to rephrase then: Failure to comply and uttering threats, WHICH IS BOTH A CRIME AND DISRESPECTFUL, deserves no mercy.
Police officers are not deities who should be worshiped but they should be respected at all times. If you want to be disrespectful, don't cry when you're put in your place.
Respect is a mutual thing, they need to earn just as much as I.
Would you be respectful to a cop after he busts you and your stash then gives you the obligatory cavity search? I bet you would have a **** eating grin on your face, wouldn't ya? It's about respect, smile while you're f*cked.
No insult taken. I have quite often shown them more respect than I recieved in return. It keeps me on the high ground if anything should ever arise and I can look myself in the mirror.
I have been shall we say stopped by the police from an early age on wards. not once did i run into any that were not professional. And that included on a few occasions being in places where drug busts went down.
By the way the officer was a racist and always picking on the young fellow he did not ask for his documents instead he told him right away he is going to jail and tried to pull him out of the window of his car for speeding and always pulled him over when he saw his car handing him tickets and trying to harass him
In the words of Sherrif Buford T Justice: "What we have here is a complete and total lack of respect for the law".
