So why was he arrested? Being an A-hole is not a crime.

This is the perfect example of how social media turns things into something they are not. I wait for the day social media dies and is deemed hazardous to society.

Disorderly conduct and assault. You can't scream in someone's face and grab them. Keep your hands to yourself. That's basic preschool shit that even my daughter understands.

I did not see him grab anyone. It looked like he batted away his phone in order to not be recorded. Sorry but there is no reason for an arrest.

Rewatch the video. He clearly grabs for the guys hand and camera. Keep your hands to yourself. Its not that hard.

This. Plus, even if all he did was bat the camera that’s battery. He was holding the camera, and recording is not illegal and doesn’t constitute a physical threat.

He grabbed the plow driver’s phone, or tried to.

And the phone was turned on after the driver had a problem with him.

The dude also impeded the plow driver from plowing.

That is no reason to be arrested. This world has become completely unhinged.

Dude, in three posts you've moved the goalpost twice and there are only 6 posts in this thread.

I know its the weekend, but you gotta pump the breaks on the liquor.

But the dude swinging and screaming at someone doing their job *isn't* unhinged?

It’s literally battery. The phone was on his person.
