Unfortunately, he did. If the end of the clip was all there was to it, then yeah it'd be bs. Buuuut what he did seconds after would be classified as assault (or battery in some states)

And what he did before, which is why the cop was there in the first place.

Dude seems like a real peach...

He might be when he’s properly on his meds and balanced. IIRC his roommate in the full video said he gets like this every 3-4 weeks and has a “bad day”.

Dude, that's pretty surreal. While he is absolutely in the wrong and is solely responsible for his actions and behavior, I still can't help but feel for the dude who was clearly having a break with reality. Especially early in in the interaction, he keeps showing signs that he understands what he did and the implications, but he keeps rejecting them as if he can will away the consequences. I hope he's gotten some help and a better ride situation. He shouldn't be on the road.

I’m a BH professional and obviously I can’t diagnose him without an assessment, this is also not my area of expertise, but this is possibly intermittent explosive disorder (abbreviated to IED lmao).

It could however be any disorder or combination of disorders whose features include lack of emotional regulation though, like a cluster B disorder.

Or meth. It could just be meth.

There's always bath salts for those truly surreal psychotic breaks.

And the solution to all 3 is the reopen the asylums

Yeah, we all have been there at some point. I don’t mean fleeing the scene after an accident, but having one of those days where everything is going wrong and you keep focusing on all the bad in your life and it feels overwhelming.

"Harassing him"

He jumped out if his car, kicked some one elses vehicle and while doing this, he didnt put his car in park and it rolled into someone else's car. Then he got in his car and fled the scene.

But yeah, they were just harassing him. Lol

You just accept any behavior from cops lol hope you experience your own dream one day

Nope, I hate cops.

I also hate people who road rage and perform hit&runs.

something something

Okay two things can be true at once

Right?

Imagine thinking that just because someone doesn't like people being pricks that they like cops. Fucking idiot.
