Every cop out there is packing heat, but dare a mere mortal do the same, permitted and unloaded even, the insult to their aauthoritaaay is just too much to take.

Threatens to beat up an unarmed girl.
Threatens to empty his clip in the driver.
Threatens to commit perjury.
Threatens to arrest him on false charges on sight.
Threatens to impound his car on sight.

Oh what fun!

Ossifer Harless and his one man campaign against prostitution. One headshot at a time...

Silly peon. Don't you know that your life is worthless compared to Officer Daniel Harless'?

The driver clearly tried to tell him about his concealed carry, and was told to shut up.

At least the piece of crap admitted that he could execute him and get away with it because his cop buddy would lie for him.

Oh and bravo on the social justice too. Any suspected "hoors" come around here again, and he'll put some lumps on them.

This piece of crap is a thug, bully and a sadist. He apparently likes to beat women too. He should never be a police officer again, much less in any kind of position of responsibility. I wouldn't even trust him as assistant manager on the night shift at Jack-in-the-Box.

I carry concealed legally. While I am rarely stopped the very first thing I do when I am is tell the officer that I have a weapon with me. It also tends to change the dynamic of the conversation. Never had a cop react like Harless. Have to hope he will not be an LEO much longer.

Harless is a toad. I would prefer to praise the courtesy and professionalism of officer Lyons.

As I mention in the youtube video, Lyons is truly a pro. I've seen him a couple of incidents in my park.

There really ought to be a minimum penis size requirement for law enforcement. Officer Havless clearly spends too much time in the weightroom trying to overcompensate for a lack of something either upstairs or downstairs. The driver probably got the impression that speaking without being told to could result in a bullet in his head. Any jury would understand his reluctance to speak and choose instead to remain as still and quiet as a mouse until it was his turn to be abused by this sadistic piece of government approved human excrement.

God complex again come to the surface they should also discipline his partner for not telling him to shut up. They dont worry about the camera because their buddies will cover for them most of the time. Again cops show their IQ. True blue apes.notice the officer lyons didnt have a partner probably because he wont lie for them.

I Refuse to comment on mister dick head However OFFICER LYONS Great Job my man thats the way COPS SHOULD ACT......... Thank you for doing your job while staying COOL..

Check him for steroids. Clearly a case of roid rage here.

Officer Lyons appears to be a true professional. He does try a couple tricks to get the guys name but that is understandable, and the guy doesn't back down. You can tell he was nervous (the guy, not the cop), I did like the part where he had the officer re-holster the weapon for him, thought that was a nice touch.

I'm trying to find contact information for the Chief of Police there in Oceanside, I think he needs to hear what a good job his officer did in this case and how professional he was.

If most officers were like him then I doubt this blog would even exist. He could teach fellow officers a thing or two.

Onto Officer Harless, "I am so close to caving in your goddamn head", then goes onto state "I should have taken two steps back, pulled my Glock 40 and just put ten bullets in your ass and just let you drop". He should have been shot in the head right then, sorry, but that is my feeling. He threatened the life of the gent and was armed and completely out of control and certainly capable of carrying out the threat, classic self-defense. *NO* reasonable person would feel safe in this case.

His partner or backup or whatever needs to be reprimanded as well for doing NOTHING to stop this, he could easily have explained away a minute or maybe two, but over FIVE, dude get a sack. He could probably be salvaged, Harness though, should get jail time.

I hope this guys takes the PD and this cop for a million and forces them to accept wrongdoing..

According to the attorney

All true folks. The case is actually about a month old. I've been waiting to verify what I was told before posting anything, because I had a hard time believing it too. But, I watched it all. At the first pretrial, the prosecutor offered to dismiss all charges for a release of liability (promise they wouldnt be sued). I refused their offer. My guy is a mild-mannered 50 some year old man, not some younger mouthy stud.

I am no legal eagle but why does the city prosecutor make deals for release of liability?

I agree Officer Lyons did the right thing in the right way.

If only there were more cops like Officer Lyons and none like Harless, who's basically just a thug with a badge.

The first officer handled it very well. Notice that the guy with the camera handled it well too. He didn't yell at the officer, insult him, or refuse to cooperate with lawful commands. It helps when both parties are calm. Right Pixie?

The second video is bad bad bad. The driver should have said something to the officer when he was searching the back seat but it's obvious he was nervous and the other officer was completely unprofessional. I hope he gets slammed for his behavior.

Weird reaction from the cop there. He obviously has some serious anger issues.

The one time I got pulled over and I was CC, I gave the officer the permit with the drivers license, he kind of just grunted at me and approved that I notified him up front, it was a fairly positive encounter overall. At first he was more interested in the alleged speeding but he saw the used target disks in the back seat of my car and commented that I looked to be a reasonable shot, but commented on the shot groupings.... I just replied, "Yeah, I am trying to workout some bad habits there..." He then just ended up talking shop and "toys" and gave me a warning, and pointers...

A tale of two cities. One cop is obviously as professional and respectful as you would hope a LEO could be. The second POS deserves to lose his badge for the cowboy act. I wondered if he had an erection the whole time?

I wonder if Bad Cop is related to that military commander in the movie "Avatar"?

Amazing that that dash-cam video didn't somehow 'magically disappear'.

the guy was a JOHN with a gun in the eyes of that dick weed, that was the problem. JL can say any shit he wants. doesnt change that fact.
this SOB had to be a JOHN, the pimp and his whore was there, wtf! even if he was trying to get some head or whatever. who gives a shit, i sure dont.
this idiot needs to lose his j-o-b as a LEO and go to prison for a few years for pulling that shit! the suspect was told to shutup, only JL would have said, oh by the way. just turn around to the officer in my car, illegally, and tell him i have a GUN! fuck, sounds like a great idea to me!
I am so waiting patiently for the next brilliant thing JL has to say, i can hardly fucking wait!

@Oceanside Police Officer Matt Lyons:
your a great example of a human being and an Officer, your the type of officer i remember when growing up and wonder why sometimes there aint more of you around, and of course on PD's..etc. across the nation. A video like this should be required to be seen by every LEO in this great nation so that they could learn by example.
thank you again!

Canton Police Officer Daniel Harless is a hoot!

Having lived in and around the Canton (Ohio) area for over 40 years!! This is no surprise, I avoid downtown like the plague. . However a couple of years ago even the county Sheriff was involved in a very interesting problem that ended in a lawsuit. .

Now I'm not saying there aren't good policemen. . I know some, as well a deputies, but it's the mindset that has to be changed. . The delusions of Godhood need to be quelled.

However I doubt much will happen to officer Harless. . It's the old "protect your own" situation.

This moron keeps on saying "stupid" yet he knows he is being recorded by his dash-cam. Stupid is as stupid does. If I was this victim I would sue the shit out of this police department, you can't have officers threatening the citizens. A death threat is a death treat even if it is coming from an officer. If you sheeple don't realize who the real enemy of this country is... you are all in big trouble.

Officer Lyons is truly one of the "Good Guys"!! A role model and inspiration for all in law enforcement!!

Write to officer Lyons:

P.O. Matt Lyons
Oceanside Police Dept.
3855 Mission Ave.
Oceanside CA. 92054

His Supervisor is Sgt. Cosby. It would be nice to write a second letter of commendation to him also. Don't know his first name, but if you address it as Sgt. Cosby, to the same address, he should get it. God bless you all and God bless America!!

JL is the reason why you need a civilian oversite review board. they ARE NOT worthy to police themselves. and i wonder when it comes to saving money that they will stop supporting these thugs get them off the payroll. definate liability and huge cost to the taxpayers. sent the mayor a email and he sent standard reply it is being investigated and wil be dealt with. meaning paid vacation.

I need duct tape to hold my jaw closed, once in absolute aww of Lyons and once in shock of Harless.

Harless need to be locked up in a room and Lyons tape played in a loop for 6 months.

jay, I agree with you 100%. In fact, people like Johnny Law underscore the reason our Founding Fathers put civilians in charge of the military and not the other way around. Not to disparage out military (or which I am a veteran) but as was explained to me on the first day of boot camp they are there to preserve Democracy, not practice it. Civilian Oversight Boards actually produce better police and better police work by reminding everyone that the police "serve and protect" the community, and the community does not exist as targets for abuse of authority.

Sadly, these abuses should be treated more harshly than they usually are. This officer did something for which a civilian would be arrested and detained.
