Okay. >> If If he said I got a gun, he's a liar. Why can't he go to jail for being a liar? >> White guys are so touchy. >> So, believe it or not, I'm going to try to make this as painless as possible. Okay? >> So, you're saying again I'll be booked or not? >> No. >> It's really crazy how this is. >> James, come on. I'm going to take the handcuffs off, and then we're going to do your statement, and you're free to go.

And I said, "Man, I swear to God, I hope somebody punches you in the [ __ ] mouth next time you do that [ __ ] to somebody. I swear to God." And I walked my ass inside. >> Was that the extent of the conversation? >> No threats? No implication that there might be a weapon involved? No? I'm just asking. Cuz these are questions that we're going to ask. >> That's what frustrates me. Why would I have a weapon? >> I'm not saying >> walked inside Walmart. You see this? Does it look like I would brandish a weapon? I wouldn't have to brandish a weapon for him to know I have a weapon. Stupid white man. >> So chill out. I'm going to grab your citation, then you're off. >> So when [clears throat] he reached down, did you believe he had a firearm? >> I didn't see no weapon. But, you know, just just you know how he did it, I you know, maybe it scared me to death. >> moment, did you believe it was possible he had a firearm? >> Yes, he did.

And I said, you know, I said, "You're that serious. I tried to talk to him. He's just like he was just doing this. But listen. I never saw a man get that mad. You know what I mean? I've seen people get that mad. And he was like he got some wild.

So, first he says I'm going to punch him in the face, and then he's like, "I'll He's like, "You make a move, I'll shoot you." And then like grabs for his waistband. Michael Tweedy is in fear for his life, and then he says the guy goes back, parks the car, and is like in and out of it a little bit.
