Re: American (Georgian) style policing
 
As details have come out over time it appears this guy (the professor) is a bit of a jerk , evidently he is a teacher at Tufts university near Boston Massachusetts , as such he is not FOB (Fresh Of the Boat)and has spent some time in the US and as such knows the laws about crossing the street ,

As I said in an earlier post he is probably just an effette intellectual looking for a bit of rough and wanted to get slapped around

It would not even have made the papers, unless 'Billy's Weekly Liar' had taken it up.;)

That was what I was saying at the start - did it really need such heavy handed methods and ALL those other policemen for one puny little English prof, snob or not? Wouldn't they have been better employed nabbing a few muggers and flinging them to the floor?

Being half Spanish, and a little on the dark side, I think he was lucky not to have been shot.:D

'Where I'm from you don't associate young gentlemen in bomber jackets with the police.'

That one supercilious comment sums up his all elitist attitude. As was pointed out this is a well travelled individual, not some naive first time tourist. The laws of any land apply the same to everyone. No one is above it, as the Professor found out.

Since it's the atavar that's had the most negative comments, I shall keep it a while longer, if only to unite people.

My little way of bringing peace and harmony to Accy Web.:)

Make it 5 people agreeing Ian. I still think the cops were the bullying bravado creeps though.

And Nellie Roo Olson . . . . . . .:o

Too bad it wasn't the Prof who got mowed down by traffic. That way we wouldn't be talking about him at all most likely.

Come on 'Barb' you can do better than that, i'm getting a little tired of keep pulling these old but true sayings out of my hat.

The 'prof' may have been an oddball, but surely the great Atlanta policeman should have been equiped to deal with a sardine like him. Or was it a case of "Frankly my dear I dont give a damn".

Actually, I don't give a damn. Tired of these p***y little people who think the rules don't apply to them.
