Jim it is acceptable for an officer to frisk before questioning for officer safety. He did ask if I had any other weapons on my person. I told him I had a pocket knife, and a pair of siscors in my pocket for breasting dove. He did ask before frisking me. I did consent. He was being friendly, and never at any point did I sense any hostility from him at any point in time.
Truth be told if you were a cop, and you were responding to the same type of call, and the person had a chip on the shoulder attitude towards you, and was visably armed, and refusing to cooperate it is hard to say that one would not have done similar to what happened. I am not justifying what the officer did. I can not hear what is being said, and can not find a captioned version. To me it seams all were wrong in many ways.
