    I'm shocked, SHOCKED a local public entity would lie about the existence of such things.

    I bumped this thread for an unrelated police video.

    This dude is running a con to get a check. He intentionally provoked the police, passively resisted and tried to use code words in order to get an image on video that would bolster his case.

    Perhaps if the LAT had more reporters/editors with urban experience, they would publish with more nuance.
