James and his father stopped at a Walgreens in Riviera Beach, Florida and while James was inside the store, officer Garry Wilson confronted him for not looking like he was disabled enough to use handicap parking because he “can walk.”
An argument ensued and moved outside. At one point, the officer assaulted James for filming the 15-minute altercation. Wilson is now on paid administrative leave pending an investigation.
Wilson, a rather obese cop, was probably upset that James took his parking spot. (sarcasm)

Discipline the officer.
If he’d touched the cop like that, he’d be arrested. $#%&!@*ult is $#%&!@*ult!
Bull….
My son is in the Navy and I am very pro veteran but I am also pro cop. They are not all bad, this cop made a mistake. He never should have touched the veteran but the veteran was wrong too. At the beginning he was yelling at the cop. We can’t have it both ways, we can’t say that people need to be respectful of cops or they can expect to get shot but that it was OK for the way this veteran was yelling at the cop because the cop did not believe him when he said he was a disabled veteran. There are bad people in every job. There are bad bartenders, bad doctors, bad nurses, bad preachers, bad politicians, bad social workers, etc. I resent the fact that Truth and Action is always showing the bad cops, show us the good cops. Show us the cop that puts his life on the line daily to protect you.
That cop is a jealous $#%&!@*smoker!
Step away from the table . don’t start with the veterans
