Yep, blue collar cops wake up and go to work hoping they can fabricate a bunch of charges against some rich golfer. You jock sniffers are nuts.

When a cop abuses his power on a black dude, the cop is a corrupt pos and police should be defunded.
When a cop abuses his power on a famous white dude (but the cop was probably too dumb to realize he had targeted a famous dude) he's just doing his job and clearly the white guy is getting off light because he's white.
What's it gonna be?
I'm laughing my ass off. You guys are terrible.
He's getting off because he didn't do anything wrong.
Could this have gone down differently had the driver been black or brown? It sure could have, and that's a depressing truth about our country, but it has no bearing on what actually happened here. Scottie can be innocent and we can have racial injustice in the US. Both things can be true.
So, unless a driver shot by a cop during a traffic stop it's an unjust outcome? As if every black or brown driver gets killed with every roadside arrest? It's not really clear what point the PP is trying to make. If Scottie was truly privileged and throwing around the "don't you know who I am!?" He wouldn't have been arrested in the first place.

No camera recording. Defendant is a famous, rich white guy whose reputation cannot be sullied by a plea bargain because sponsors are not going to like that.
And, they overcharged him. Including a felony. That makes it very political. The Republicans are pushing “felony charge is hold to deport” as their cornerstone immigration issue. Well - Sheppler just showed how trumped up that crap can be.
Why doesn't he just come clean and admit he screwed up and violated traffic laws because he didn't feel like waiting in traffic (which was backed up for a roadway fatality)? He stepped in it, bottom line. It's not cool to violate traffic laws around such a hectic and busy sporting event, as evident by a traffic fatality he was trying to go around.
Because he doesn't think he did anything wrong. Would you admit to doing something you didn't do?
Illegal driving maneuvers to dodge traffic are in fact wrong. He knows that.
It's almost as if you can't comprehend a situation in which someone would do something other than follow the normal traffic rules under special circumstances. Have you ever driven on the wrong side of the road when one side is being repaved? Should you be in jail?

And how wrong was he? Arrested at about 6:10 am. He was back at the golf course in time to make a 10:06 am tee time (with a warm up).
Still charged by the police wit a felony and a misdemeanor. Does that sound like what would happen if he were a Hispanic guy working on the grounds crew?

Scottie didn't throw a chair off a roof onto a busy sidewalk. He was in a well-marked PGA car that was obviously heading into the tournament. He had no way of knowing there was a major accident. It sounds more like the police were a bunch of Keystone Kops on a power trip and it was all a misunderstanding. And Scheffler is known to be one of the nicest players in the PGA. He's already issued a very thoughtful statement explaining the incident. And what kind of police procedure involves 'attaching" oneself to a moving vehicle anyway?
I am generally pro-police. I think it can be a really difficult job. But good lord they do hire some idiots.
Nobody gives a damn what sport you play, you do not get to drive thru an active crime scene investigation of a fatality, no less. And when police tell you to stop, you need to comply.
Exactly.
It wasn't an "active crime scene" morons. This was the bottle neck a mile or so away.
Bottle neck because of a fatal accident involving a tournament staffer. Someone died, little more important than a golfer getting his morning smoothie.
A smoothie? You're just making up random stuff because you don't even know what happened at all. The cops should have been doing their job directing traffic and letting the players get to the course.
He wasn’t teeing off anytime soon when he did this. Why does some entitled athlete think he gets to cut the lineup of cars and illegally drive against traffic? Better yet, why do you think it’s okay for him to do it? If you saw similar happen, you’d wish a cop were around the ticket the driver. Quit being a jock sniffer.
Are you really this stupid? He's the reason there is traffic heading to the event. Usually athletes get escorts to their events.
Usually? Not last weekend. He should have sat his butt in traffic like everyone in front of him. He thought he was too entitled and important to wait. He thought wrong. And how sad are you to defend him. Break a traffic law, get charged, it’s that simple. And he should have complied; not complying made this all worse.
