Just when I thought I was out with Twitter, it pulls me back in.
Scottie is the best thread in months.

Andy Dufresne certainly learned a lesson about stretching in a cell/prison.
Apologies.
Ya seems to be a bit much. For one, cops who stick their arms in vehicles are going against any training they received.
However, for those who haven’t directed traffic before, you have no idea the amount of stupid you have to deal with. I’m sure Scottie wasn’t the first person to be dumb and think you could just disregard traffic laws and orders of an officer. If an officer tells you to stop and you disregard their directions you open up yourself up to this happening. Add in the emotions of dealing with a dead person, stress is high and the officer probably overreacted. I just usually yell at people instead of writing tickets or arresting someone. To be clear, I haven’t read all the articles to understand all the facts but it seems like the officer had probable cause to make the arrest, but could have definetly handled it differently.
I know the guy. It’s been a rough couple weeks around the Neola/Minden area.
Kind of makes we wonder how this stuff doesn't happen 6 saturdays per year in Ames and Iowa City, and 2 weeks per year at the State Fair. Iowa State Patrol seems to have their shit together for those events.
Yep, appears to all be a mis-understanding and over-reaction by the police officer. Nothing to see hear. However, Scottie S. (if he wanted to) could probably pursue some legal action against the over zealous cop.
His superiors should give that cop a talking to, give him a paid day off to decompress, then let him go back to work…business as usual.
He drove on the median to get around stopped traffic caused by a fatal accident. He kept driving when they tried to stop him.
Everyone’s been late to work because of traffic. He’s not above the law.
Small difference when you are the reason for all the traffic. If it was another sport he wouldn’t have driven around the cops…the cops would have been giving him an escort. Hell even the Iowa Women’s Basketball team would get police escorts to “work.”
You wrote overreaction by the policeman and made no mention of the poor driving by SS.
A fact we do know is an operator of a vehicle is obligated to be aware of his surroundings and follow law enforcement’s instructions. SS failed.
The PGA Tour can delay the start of their event so the police can properly handle a fatality, which is what they did.
Build more jails! A a lot bigger jails that we have been building, if that is the case!
My commute is 2.5 blocks for the past 10 years.. less than 30 seconds by car. One of the benefits of living in bumfuk Iowa.
The memes and Tweets today have been incredible.
lol…leave it to some bozo to make it a black/white thing. 😳
Why try to make everything a black//white issue?
Because he moves the needle.
It seemed like coverage of his car crash was everywhere.
Ummm. Cuz the LMPD has a history of making things a black/white thing?
Accept the humor for what it is, brah.
BTW, Annie Agar. Would!
