breitbart.tv — First the police lie and say professor attacked them. Then, after video proof that the professor did nothing wrong and was attacked the police get off. What the HELL is wrong with this country?

Did you watch the video?
I disagree with the statement that the professor did nothing wrong.
It certainly looked, to me, as if the prof started by reaching out and shoving a cop who'd not been interacting with him at all. It wasn't a tap on the shoulder, it was a full-body-weight shove that knocked the cop back half-a-step.
I can see an argument that the cop's response was unprofessional, but in no sense was it unprovoked.
