So, we just kept them away so they don't see your handcuffs, bro. I appreciate you. All right. Is that fair? I got kids, too, man. I wouldn't want to see you. I have two degrees, man. I don't I don't be out here doing this stuff. The kids over there playing. I guess they're playing rough. She said something. I went, "Hey, where's your husband?" That's the first thing I said. I have no business arguing with a woman. She started yelling. She switched the story. I have had no reason to lie. >> Yeah. I got you. You understand what I'm saying? She came and got y'all. That's cool. But you know, it is what it is. >> All right. All right. Just give me a second question. All right. Anything that happens, that's going to be everybody's one chance. Okay. Understand? Any more disturbances from any one of you guys is going to be to get out of jail free. But after that, dude, we can't be dealing with this. >> Appreciate here. There's a bunch of kids. We don't need that. >> Actually, I don't know. I know. I know. I got you. I got you. This is This is not a threat whatsoever. I just don't want I don't want any issues. I want them to have fun. I want everybody here to have fun. I want to go home. I want y'all to go home. You feel me? Yes, sir. I think at the end of the day, that's all I want. Yes, sir. I appreciate you. >> Hey, go straight meet up with uh your kids and then go get out of here. >> Your driver's license is in your wallet. Okay. >> All right. >> Real quick, I just kind of get wanted to get y'all's side of the story cuz y'all kind of were like there. Could you kind of tell me just what happened? >> Okay. So, it started when Like I don't know what the kids were doing, but her son was over like a couple of tents away playing with those three boys over there. I guess they were being really rough with him and he come back and was sleep and they took his football. So she went and took got his football back and come back and told him he had to stay there. He played with Well, then they come over there like trying to Oh, he was doing this and he was doing >> What was it that he did? They were saying that he was doing >> like saying that he had started it and that's why they scratched his neck. So they walk off and then she cuz our tent was right behind hers and she comes over to talk to us. I've known her for a really long time or friends. And so she comes over to talk to us with her baby on her hip and all of a sudden these boys come back with the dad or I don't know who's one of them dad or what. And he was like um your son said this. He was like your son said this. I want to know where your husband's at. I want to know where your husband's at. And she was like, but she's not married and she wouldn't want to tell him. She was single. She was like, my husband's not here right now. And he was like, he just started like yelling. Like every every time she tried to say something to him, it was just escalating. And she was like, "Look, my kid is not going to go over there and play with him anymore. Just leave him alone because they he come over there looking for her son. He didn't even come looking for parents or anything like that." So here he is like screaming in her face. And I stood up. I was like, "Guys, guys." And he turned around to me. He's like, "Shut the [ __ ] up." And I'm like, "Dude." And I I kind of got She was standing here and she's got her baby on her hip. So, >> you didn't even say nothing to him, >> huh? You didn't even say nothing to him. He just like turned around and said that to you. >> Yeah. Well, I was I just said, "Guys, guys." Yeah. So, I was trying to like, you know, calm down, calm down, whatever. And he turns around and says that to me. And I go over and like I stand kind of a little bit in front of her because she saw a baby right there. And I'm standing on the side of the baby. And like he starts screaming at me. Then he starts screaming at him. And he's sitting down. He hasn't said a word. Hasn't stood up. He hasn't even moved. He's like, "Get up. Get up." And like >> Yeah. >> And he just like every thing was just escalating. Escalating. >> Yeah. >> When he um say something to her like she he started screaming, "Hey, come down." >> Yeah. >> And he's like, "Oh, come on. Get up. Get up." >> He just wanted to fight somebody. >> I guess my question is is during the course of this whole thing, what was everybody's like reaction to this whole thing? Was other people like >> Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. There was all kinds of people that were around. >> Was there a bunch of kids around? >> Oh, yeah. >> At any point, did did you did you feel like you were going to get hit? >> I I'm sure he might not have thought he was going to hit him, but I thought he was. >> The reason I want to talk to you guys is because I knew that you guys were one of the people that were like directly there. >> Yeah. >> And I know like based on me, right, I can tell that he was disruptive to the whole >> football field, right? But I just wanted to see if you know what you guys witnessed as you guys being bystanders if it was disruptive. It was a breach of peace. Like you know what I mean? Like >> it absolutely was. >> I guess the whole gist of it was is that they felt like her son called the little kid a racial slur. >> Yeah. But like >> I don't think that was my consensus of it is that they were kind of playing and then that happened and then it just kind of got out of control. You know, whether the nword was said or not, >> I don't know. But that doesn't give anybody the right to do exactly what he did. So whenever you talk to her, just let her know that I am doing a warrant for his arrest and he is going to be arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest uh or obstruction. You'll get picked up at a later date, but he is going to answer for what he did out here. The only reason that I didn't take him to jail whenever he was out here is because number one, he had a son that didn't have anybody to go with, >> and I'd rather not put a kid in DCF if he doesn't have to. >> Absolutely. And number two, because it's just me and him out here and I don't want to leave him alone. >> Oh yeah. >> You know what I'm saying? >> Let her know that he's going to have a warrant for his arrest and he's going to be put in jail for >> I appreciate it, guys. >> The suspect was issued a warrant for his arrest for resisting obstructing without violence and breach of peace, totaling a bond of $5,000. He is innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law. What happens when the real fight isn't between two kids on a football field, but between adults and one who's 42 years old can't even put his pride down long enough so he can be shown a better way to handle a dispute? That's the question in this footage. Because kids are going to get into scuffles. That's normal. But when police showed up, why did this grown man turn this into a full-blown spectacle? And cops don't pull someone aside just to be difficult. They do it because crowds often have a way of pouring gasoline on a situation. When you're one-on-one, people tend to think, talk, and even breathe differently. But in front of an audience, pride kicks in. voices get louder and suddenly you're not talking to the person, you're talking to the performance. And in my opinion, this victimhood mentality has become a skill set in modern society because people rehearse it, they polish it and unleash it when they feel cornered. Instead of saying, "I crossed the line," they flip it and say, "Look at what you did to me." And I'm not being biased because we're seeing this a lot. And they believe the louder they get, the more believable it looks. At least to anyone who isn't paying close attention. The danger in this cultural shift isn't just about policing. It's about what happens when accountability is erased from society. Think about it. If no one's ever responsible, then no one is ever wrong. And when no one's wrong, everyone feels justified. and fighting authority. And whether the nword was used or not here, always remember whenever a person chooses that word, that just tells you what kind of person you're dealing with.
