Yikes.... A few bad apples spoil the bunch. I was skeptical until the officer practically admitted it on tape.
Either way, I think we need DAs to go after cases like this more strictly like they do so very many others. Make a few examples on the few power trip officers, and make it known they will be canned, sacked, and persecuted if they violate fundamental rights.
I'd like to make sure people remember that the majority of police are not like this, or have better intentions. And I think that many upstanding officers are just as sickened by the admissions on tape here as we are. So lets not start generic cop bashing here.

My Feedback
"Praise be to our prophet, John Moses Browning, who hath bestowed upon us the new testament of shooting. Delivered unto us, his disciples, on 29 March 1911 A.D."
DA's going after police? Only when pressured by public outrage!
LEO question. Are you told to, or assigned to be on traffic/check point duty, or is it something that officers can seek out?
"There are no finger prints under water."
That is so fucked up.
Contrary to the other thread and the discussion about LEO's who shoot first, I also have very little patience or regard for assholes like this kid who go out of their way to deliberately antagonize LEO's who are merely doing their job. There's far too many of these "YouTube heros" out trying to "assert their rights" by needlessly pissing off cops. This guy had a camera all setup and ready to go, and I bet he was tickled shitless to find himself a DUI checkpoint to throw himself into as a "victim".
There was absolutely NO reason for this punk to refuse to roll his window down, and to then start with the "am I being detained? I know my Constitutional rights. I don't consent to a search. Etc. etc..." bullshit. That cop did nothing other than react to a suspicious driver, at a checkpoint LOOKING for suspicious drivers.
Don't start none, won't be none.

You are monumentally full of shit. The cops produced a fake "hit" by the dog, told him his rights didn't matter and violated multiple laws. They were way out of fucking line.
Don't assume no rights, won't be no rights. Fuck that and fuck bowing to power hungry crooked cops.
And if the kid had rolled his window down and talked to the cop like aman, none of this would have happened at all. And he wouldn't have gotten his video for YouTube. No rights violations, no bowing to anybody. "Fake hit by the dog", please. Kid was acting suspicious, that's all the PC they needed.
