You just snapped my face off in the middle of the road. What are you doing? >> Put your hands behind your back. No, you're not. You're resisting. >> Bro, you just snapped your face off. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> What are you doing? >> He's reaching for my gun. >> I'm not. >> Yes, he is. >> No, I'm not. Take my hands. I'm giving them to you. Bro, stop. What are you doing? >> Uh about 3 weeks ago, I did the same thing. We said, "Hey, don't reach by your door, right?" All he said was, "Don't reach by your door." And Lisbon has a lot more [ __ ] going on than Lisbon does. And he said, "Hey, don't reach by your door." I'm like, "What are you talking about?" He goes, "You got a gun." I go, uh "No." He goes, "Give it to me." And I hand it to him. He goes, "It's a [ __ ] pink dude. What do you have a pink BB gun for?" >> This is a construction contractor having a perfectly peaceful conversation with a Lisbon police officer. The interaction takes a turn when the officer spots a holster containing a toy BB gun. Instead of asking a simple question, the officer chooses to lunge his into the cabin, grabs the weapon, twists the man's arms, and slams this contractor face-first into the ground. This is a prime example of operational paranoia, where a non-lethal object is weaponized as a pretext to trigger reckless police brutality. >> Bro, let's talk about BRO, YOU JUST SNAPPED AT ME STOP TALKING TO ME, BRO. >> WHAT ARE YOU DOING? >> Put your hands behind your back. >> No, you're not. >> You're resisting. >> Bro, you just snapped your hands behind your back. >> What are you doing? >> He's reaching for my gun. >> I'm not. >> Yes, he is. >> Take my hands. I'm giving them to you. >> Bro, stop. What are you doing? My face is hurting this much. >> Because you're not cooperating.

I thought you were kidding at first. >> I'm not kidding at first. >> It's BB gun, guys. >> No, we don't see it. So, that's what happens when you're going to resist me. I can't get this cuff on him. You got the second one on him. >> I'm puffing my chest because I thought you were kidding at first, but then you really were. >> We're talking about We're talking about a gun. It's not kidding. When I asked you if you had any weapons, we don't know Well, when I asked you if you had any weapons on you >> The A BB gun is a weapon? >> I don't know what's a BB gun. >> I don't know what's a BB gun. >> Why is it in a holster? >> We told you we had the BB gun. >> Jesus, bro, he's too big for >> Bro, you hurt my hand, man.

Went to go grab him and said, "You're on your ass." Cuz he's he's yelling. >> Mhm. >> He told me he didn't have any weapons in there. And then he starts And he starts freaking going off on me. Wouldn't let me You're going to make it worse. You just made that a lot worse than you had to, though. >> Hey, what do you guys have over there, please? That's what you get, big [ __ ] >> Come on, you didn't have to do that. You didn't have to do that. >> I got I'm too fat for this [ __ ] You got to do some hip flexor stretches. Dude, my face hurts, bro. >> Well, you shouldn't have done that, then. >> Done what? Pull pull over there. >> We told you to be there. You're being a dick. >> Either way, thank you. >> See, there he's not. There he is. Dude. How did I know? I'm not going to check it. It's a BB gun right in front of them. >> He grabs me and says to push me inside my truck, tell me put my hands behind my back. Don't Can I talk to him for a minute cuz right now me and you are not cool. >> Okay. >> And I'm like, "What are you talking about? You're being serious?" And when you got Boopa and Big Guy pushing on me, telling me that I have a gun. The [ __ ] talking about a gun. So is my five-in-one [music] is my putty knife is my utility knife a weapon? I am a contractor. But I know what a BB gun is, please. This is not a weapon. I told you 10 times over it's a BB gun. But I told you this. >> They didn't think so. >> Have I lied to anybody yet? >> Not yet. >> Is it worthy of grabbing me and slamming me in cuffs and telling me >> No, it is not worthy of slamming you in cuffs. >> So listen, if I wasn't a felon and I had a concealed weapon permit, right? Would you do that to me, too? >> You're a felon. >> But if I wasn't, would you do that to me? >> You're a felon. >> But if I wasn't, would you do that? >> We're not playing hypotheticals. >> Can you answer me or not? >> We're not playing hypotheticals. You're a felon. >> And you see my face, right? >> No. >> Yeah, I know. You just snatched it out of that [ __ ] girl. I'm 263 lbs. >> You're going to stand right there. You're going to stand right there. >> You have me You have my panties in a bunch. Cuz me and you were just joking around and out of nowhere you grab me from behind, bent me over my seats, and pushed me in my truck. You, not him. You. And me and you were just going to I don't want to ride. I'm going to walk. >> But we need to >> But my face is [ __ ] hurting. It's a BB gun, bro. That's all it is. >> I know. But when someone an officer tells you stop, you're being >> told you it was a BB gun. I really did after that. >> to detaining somebody and stuff like once we put hands on you, like you I know how you're joking with us and you're like reaching towards us, but we haven't done that once to you, right? >> We nope, and I get that. So, being that, right? And we're all men here, correct? Right? So, therefore And listen, Lewiston has about 3 weeks ago did the same thing. He said, "Hey, don't reach by your door, right?" All he said was don't reach by Lewiston has a lot more [ __ ] going on than Lisbon does. And he said, "Hey, don't reach by your door." I'm like, "What are you talking about?" He goes, "You got a gun." I go, "Uh no, it's a BB gun." And I handed it to him. He goes, "It's [ __ ] pink, dude. What do you got a pink BB gun for?" >> Huh? >> All right, fair enough cuz it was my step daughter's and to be honest, I don't even know why I got it. I think I took it from her a long time back. And I told you 10 times over and then you came up puffing your chest doing the same thing. >> I've seen >> And now I'm smacked my face on the ground. I'm soaking wet. Yeah, it's funny, right? >> Gil, I've seen the super soaker that's been converted into a shotgun. Yeah. So, when it's it's like a gun, it looks like a gun, we treat it like it is a gun until we know it's >> So, why wouldn't you just say, "Hey, is that a firearm?" And I say, "No, not at all." >> We need to see because you've already told me there's no way >> say nothing.
