Scum.
Hmmm.... I'm with you on most of these, but I don't know about this one. He was arrested and he was ultimately charged with unpaid parking tickets which he apparently did in fact have. He claims that when police first arrested him they did so because he fit the description of an assault and battery suspect. But the only evidence of this is his own claim. No video of the event, no audio, no outside witness.
I'm not saying I think its at all a coincidence that police would show up to arrest a guy with a shit ton of unpaid parking tickets after that same individual posted a video online that brought them lots of bad press.
But I am saying that in this day and age I'm generally quick to say video or it never happened. Not saying he's lying. Not saying he's telling the truth. Just saying that without a witness or evidence, I honestly can't know either way.
