I concur with Seaver. A good (hell, even lousy) video tape is the only way to fight back in many cases. But probably not this case. Moron on CBR1000.

Who exactly? Guys that act like dipshits on motorcycles and then, five minutes later, get stopped by a cookie-cutter Johnny D. Law type yelling at them from the front while a uniformed officer in a marked cruiser pulls up behind them (see end of video)? C'mon, there is no mystery as to this dude's job.
And, hell, just look at the guy. White dude with GI Joe haircut, furrowed cranky cop brow, rewind jargon talk, subdued color clothes.
Nobody with half a brain would have gone for a concealed handgun in those circumstances. I'm curious as to who you "know" who'd do that.
Still, it's my feeling that the plainclothes cop didn't need to do anything but index his piece given the circumstances.
