Would you just stand there and let that happen to YOUR mother?

Just answer that: yes or no. Would you let that man physically grab your mother?
This has happened to me.

Years ago I pulled over because I "fled" from a highway patrol at a high rate of speed. The truth is I wasn't fleeing; I was speeding and back then speeding for me was 130 mph. I never saw the fully marked police car behind me; The police thought I was fleeing. It was a full felony stop; I ate gravel. I was in fact yelled at, screamed at, and grabbed. I didn't resist, yet I was cut in the process and received a rather painful knee to the back.

The police thought I had a dead body in the trunk or at least drugs; They took this very seriously. I didn't resist in any way shape or form, they were heavy handed, and it wasn't pleasant at all.

This is what happens when you break the law.

Yes.

If my mother broke the law, the police went to arrest her, I would not interfere in any way at all.

What do you expect me to do? Attack the police officer? Because my mother was getting arrested for breaking the law?

Look at the tape - the mother fled, and when pulled over a second time the police officer tried to get her out of the car to put her in handcuffs because she was an obvious flight risk. There is no being nice about it at this point - It's either get out of the car now or face the consequences, and she chose to face the consequences - which starts with being forced out of her car.

You get what you deserve in life. Break the law, then refuse to obey a police officer, you get handled.

Robbie, are you seriously telling me that if you watched your mother break the law, you would then attack the police officer who was attempting to arrest her?
