    “At no point did I indicate my position, nor did I ask the responders to do anything that they would not, had not, or have not done for anyone else who makes a business dispute call.”

    What the fuck is even a “business dispute call”? The police are not supposed to be involved in “business disputes” at all. If he thinks his deputies are supposed to speed through city streets to placate some Karen at Burger King, then he’s beyond educating and should just be removed from his position.

      He was wearing camo and a tactical vest. So even if they didn’t know he was a cop he looked like a guy ready for trouble.

      Also a big red flag that he wanted them to identify the owner or a manager, because that’s not fucking ominous when a cop is abusing his power and no longer wants to settle for a refund.

        Yeah, the store manager was right to keep their identity as hidden as possible. That dude’s a textbook narcissist, and will absolutely abuse any information he gets.
