I stopped a State Trooper and explained my situation. He simply said "Follow Me" and gave me an escort to the Hospital. I didn't run red lights and threaten the safety of others around me. I didn't get out of the car arguing with the Cop. @ Pat Pat, I don't know the hell you must live with in your little utopian World you've created in your mind, but here in the real World, law breakers are punished. If you had watched that video objectively, you would see exactly what I was talking about. I'd like to know what "injustice" you're talking about? You mean allowing someone to break multiple laws and threaten the safety of innocent people? If Moats had really been so interested in getting into the Hospital before his MIL passed away, he wouldn't have been arguing with the Cop and lying to him about his Insurance. All that time he spent doing that could have been spent inside with his MIL. Like the Cop said "Attitude is everything". As we all know by now, the Cop resigned and some reports have him working at another Dallas area PD. Good for him, I hope his new Captain will stand behind his Men better than the Dallas Chief did.

@ Pat

Your embellishments about what transpired and complete lack of perspective on this makes you a dangerous person. People like yourself are as dangerous as any crackhead ever was, because you allow huge injustices to prevail while blindly adhering to selective morality. I find you evil and repugnant, and while you walk through life , no doubt espousing the virtues of God and country, you personify the worst elemnts of society. Anyone who could even suggest that this officer shouldnt be fired and never allowed in an enforcement capacity again anywhere scares me as much as any gang, crackhead or thug out there, because you can see those people and take precautions. People like you practice a much more insidious brand of evil. You spread hate, intolerance. and selective morality while pretending to be morally superior, god-fearing upstanding citizens. And if there is a God, I would love to see you and others defend this video and this cops actions to Him/Her. I have to think He would hang His head in shame at his beautiful creation of mankind and freewill gone horribly wrong.
