    Hill was being a punk and rolled his window up on them. One of them roid raged out and yoinked him out of the car. I think they figured out who he was (probably thought he was a drug dealer based on him being black and the nice sports car) and gave him his traffic tickets and let him go.

      He provided the paperwork they required from him and chose not to continue the conversation. When asked to step out of the car he complied and was thrown to the ground. He is not required to speak to them so why is he a punk?

        He did not comply. I watched the video and you’re full of shit that he complied about stepping out of the vehicle. He also kept his car running instead of shutting the engine off.

          What legal command didn’t he comply with to get put in handcuffs? Is he legally required to turn his car off? Did the officers ask him to turn his car off?

          He hands the officer his paperwork at 0:10 closes his window at 0:26 in the video and opens the car window at 0:43 his door is opened at 0:56 he’s on the ground at 1:02. It took the police 62 second to conduct the stop assess that he’s a threat and take him to the ground. I know he’s fast on the field but come on lol
