If he forgets the husbands name...even with the picture and name of the husband in front of him, I mean come on.
Does it sound like something he said 'out of context'? What you're supposed to say is how brave he was, you're comforting her, that's what the call is for.
Also, he tweeted about it afterwards, without any context, he could've been more polite.
"I am very sorry Mrs. Johnson feels this way, I understood our conversation was very satisfactory, I am happy to call her again, hopefully that will be comforting to her, we will reach out to her."
Professionalism. Like a president.

" if I open carry anywhere then it usually also deters people from starting any fights with me."
So you're using it to intimidate them and that gives you peace? Once they knew you had the ability to kill them, they stopped 'the drama' with you?
That sounds sad. You never ended a fight with words, you just show them you're capable of a potential murder? Your social skills must be great then.
I wouldn't want my former teachers to have a handgun. Just for "fun" (not fun) purposes, look up some of those teachers-losing-it-compilations, where the teachers lose their temper and slam their students with a chair. Those need a gun? Police get training (barely any) and they don't even know how to shoot properly most of the time.
And if you suggest that that's a good thing, people being able to shoot them without thinking twice, then think of the teachers that aren't like that.
Do you really think that Mister Steve Williams, the geography teacher, will be able to shoot Jimmy in the head, once he starts screaming with a gun in his hand?
Will Miss Wilma be prepared to teach, if that meant she might have to shoot Jessica in the chest, the depressed girl who wasn't helped properly by the school-psychologist?
Think.

I know what you mean, but this "weapon" was a stick with a clip on the end, to pick up trash.
The cop was trying to see if he could intimidate him into putting down his item, by calling it a weapon and enforcing his power over him.
If you behave submissively to that, they think they can get away with it. The guy did the right thing.
I once had a collegue that had to 'help me' after they fired me for money-reasons. She was the 2nd manager and had power-issues as well.
She managed to drag me into a barely-lit room and started searching my entire bag, taking out tampons and pads and questioning pens and pencils; 'Are those ours? They look like ours...these are our pens!'
Because she wanted to upset me. And see how far she could humiliate me.
I refused to give the pen back and waited patiently untill she realised the brand of the pen said ADHD and Autism Centre after which I politely reminded her that I was the one with autism and not her.
She was furious, took my company-toiletbag and yanked the keyring off with my name, screaming; 'We'll make sure to find a second person named Emma, because you're not going to take that keyring home!!!'
I shrugged my shoulders and said; 'Fine.' She took the toiletbag and emptied it on the table, saying I wasn't allowed to keep the gifted bag either. I didn't care.
She then put the keyring ín the bag and grabbed my pen, saying; 'Well, I guess we're done' and I said; 'No, we're not. You have my pen. Give it back please.' and the whole thing started over again.
In the end, she was angry, exhausted and frustrated and I refused to leave untill I got my pen back. She had to give it back to me and after that she quite literally kicked me out of the door.
But that wasn't the power-tripping enjoyable moment she'd imagined. She'd made things very difficult for herself by insisting on keeping the pen. This moment taught her that she shouldn't have done that. That was an important lesson that the cop very well may have learned also.

1. If anything you can break or hit someone with is a weapon, how come the police aren't too afraid to go outside in the first place?
If everything's a weapon...come on. That means the grocerie-store is a boobytrap. And that anyone on a bike is a danger to your life.
2. Ok.
3. Sure. But why would he be cleaning other people's property? It doesn't make sense to feel threathened by it.
4. I've watched enough American documentaries to know that the fírst thing they do is an internal investiation, by the collegues. If théy decide it needs to go to the Civil Court or Review board (which does not happen often, because the last time an officer decided to do so, his collegues shunned him and called him a dirty rat and bullied him away from the group), it could've already been purged from their files.
Gypsy-cops are too common, so even if he gets charged with abusing his power, he can just start working somewhere else.
It's a bit naive to think that cops don't back each other up. What, you think you can just 'professionally' tell your collegues that you feel mr. Collegueman needs to resign? And that they'll be fine with that?
Also, "I have a black friend' is a stupid detail in this conversation. I have no friends, but I know two black dudes that live nearby, does that make my story more legit? No.
What makes my story legit is that I live in another country and therefore, I know a life without this kindof BS is possible. Some of the Americans I speak to, are convinced that we're being raped left and right by refugees or being muslimized while we're typing.
What if I told you that our country is fine? Your country is not dealing with this shit the right way.

@jc8153 Yeah, no, I realize that. As I said, I've seen the interview, confusing situation, he's an honest person, not hiding how awful it is for you and your children. But the child is unable to decline this food and/or walk off and say they do not want to witness this grotesque display of adult behaviour.
And in this case, it's kindof like giving spoons to a mother that hits her child, telling her that there's also a broom in the shed and when she hits him with that, you provide something new.
There is a point where you have to draw a line, right, even though it is the people making the decisions, this child has no way to get out.
Again, I understand the idea, but this isn't a lowlife-adults-brain that thinks it's funny to kill themselves with food, this is a child that trusts the family and eats with them.
