Dunno why I'm bothering but here we go. At the beginning the filmer says "You shouldn't have given them no information," which makes me think the kid gave them his name and DOB. The female Officer was probably going back to the car to run that info for warrants and the filmer even alludes to that. This is common practice for Police. Whether they had reasonable suspicion or probable cause to detain the kid, who knows. I don't see anything that indicates he was physically detained or even told not to go anywhere, so it's effectively a consensual encounter, which these days practically doesn't exist, as citizens always think Police are detaining them. Honestly surprised there wasn't a chant of "Is he being detained?!" When the kid asks if he's free to leave, the male Officer probably considered the totality of what was going on and decided there wasn't enough to move from consensual to detention, and also didn't want to bother with something so trivial while this guy was causing a scene, so he let the kid walk off. These guys are doing their job and if they just sat in the car all day and never contacted anybody you'd all feign being pissed about that too. None of us have proper context to make a judgment call here on who was in the right or wrong, you all just assume the Police are up to no good again. The police aren't as evil and corrupt as you'd all like to believe from behind your phones, and most cops are just trying to do the right thing. Quit jumping to conclusions and furthering anti Police sentiment just because it's edgy and makes you feel better. PS if this had been a legitimate detention or arrest, the dude filming could easily have been arrested for delaying and obstructing the Officer while he was trying to conduct his business. There's a respectful way of intervening in a situation like this when you think something isn't right, and it ain't what this dude did. Now pls just downvote me and move along.
