its a target rich environment this morning in the thin blue line department and here is one with the cop harassing those helping their neighbors with flood problems;
Sperry, OK — Residents in Oklahoma are experiencing near-historic
flooding this week as well as damaging wind and tornadoes. Thousands of
people have been displaced and have lost everything. Adding to the
extreme harsh hand dealt out by mother nature is the fact that in at
least one instance, people trying to save their property or rescue
others are being harassed and fined by police—for being good
Samaritans.
Tulsa and surrounding areas are being hit hard by floods this week as
government issues warnings and closes roads. Tulsa County Emergency
Management Director Joe Kralicek warned of that there may be an
extremely dangerous situation due to a river in the area cresting.
Despite warnings and road closures, many residents are trying to get
to their homes to prepare them for high water and see if their neighbors
need help. This is not going over too well with police who are trying
to keep people out of the area.
Flood victims attempting to help other flood victims clashed with
police this week and part of this interaction was captured on video. The
video was uploaded to Facebook and has caused quite the stir on there
as well as people argue over who is right, the cop or the people trying
to help others.
In the video, we see the cop identified as Sperry Police Officer
Bobby Sappington Jr. swearing at residents receiving help, calling them
“stupid” and threatening to arrest them. Exactly what happened before
the video started is unclear. However, the officer’s choice of words and
threats was entirely evident.
The video begins as a group of people are attempting to tow a truck
from the flooded waters and they are stopped by police. Officer
Sappington begins yelling at the person in the truck getting towed
telling him “how f**king stupid is that!”
He then approaches the woman who is in the other vehicle towing the
truck and demands she stop helping people, noting that police should be
the only ones on the road..........https://fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/cop-caught-on-video-harassing-fining-flood-victims-for-trying-to-help-each-other/247510
