Can anyone offer any insight into the officer's specimen comments? What was meant by "I'm a specimen".

But I was in the Air Force not a police officer so i don’t really know how it works. But i think more people have a problem with the dialogue, bias, and prejudice the officer had than removing him from the car.
They tried that but this scofflaw chose not to comply and escalate. Police are not baby sitters. Police are not a toy. I would go further and say people are not toys to "prank" and provoke as I see on so many video's these days.

I am a speciman means he is a "speciman" of a man/male i.e. fit and in shape. It comes from the military, sports or "bro" speak I believe. He used the term properly though maybe not at the best time.

Exactly. His mind is made up. He still has not responded to how long the officers should have waited on the side of the road for this infant to comply, all the while being a danger to themselves and passing motorists.

Actually if you look at my previous post and read the whole thing you would see I responded. But you prefer to take things out of context and it looks like you also have made up your mind. I think everybody in this thread has made up their minds.

Well you said 5 minutes which I doubt this took less than considering the number of police on the scene and the level of escalation. I mean it is not unusual for another car to be there almost immediately but to reach this level of escalation and Princess Above the law here to have her phone all setup it seems it was longer than 5 minutes.



I just re-watched it and when he says "Take a look at me, I am a speciman" to me that could mean this piece of human waste could have been disrespectful to the female officer, because you know in your world females are not human, so he was letting him know that the nonsense of being disrespectful to an officer based on gender was over.


An interesting thing is that he did not post the entire video but cropped it. I can only assume he and his attorney chose to cut out anything that looked bad for them.

How do you get from “take a look at me I am a specimen” to he was disrespecting the woman police officer. Probably that incident was longer than 5 minutes which is why the officer should have took him out of the car and skipped the dialogue. Idk how you got to in my world females are not human. Cause my two other siblings are both women. I mean the person in the car is clearly did crop the video and is trying to capitalize on this. I believe that if the person in the car was white none of the harassing dialogue would happen.

Just being around people. I really was trying to figure out why he would say that and having the criminal crop the scene to show its best light and this guy saying this I feel this is as good of an explanation as any.

Is the dialogue illegal though? Driving on a suspended license is illegal and having an expired inspection sticker while doing so is stupid....even if you are looking for a pay day.



I am not 100% sure but maybe Bigfoot424 can correct me if I am wrong. The guy was going to have to leave the car at some point because it was going to be towed. Driver without license + invalid inspection sticker (not that this is a towing offense) is probably gonna get this car towed unless possibly there was another person in the car that could drive it.

To me this falls under the "I'm not racist! One of my friend is a ________!" sub heading.

Nonsense. I've seen at lease two videos on Instagram highlighting similar situations, except the idiot drivers who wouldn't get out of the cars were white. Similar dialogue and outcome. The police described exactly what was going to happen if the idiots didn't get out of the car. Said idiots refused to get out of the car, at which point idiots were removed from the cars. And then, of course, the whining and blubbering ensues....One of the idiots was bitten by a police dog because he couldn't follow instructions.

It's not complicated. A police officer tells you to get out of your car, you get out of your car.

NOVA has become a socialist anti-America "state." Sad, but true.
