In reply to the discussion: Heather Cox Richardson is so fucking brilliant! [View all]yellow dahlia
(4,639 posts)28. A very good question.
I understand why a woman would not want to get out of a car, when confronted by these federal agents.
In recent months, we have seen numerous examples of women being dragged out of cars by these guys...for no reason at all. Did you notice they have a tactic whereby they pull the women's pants down. I saw one incident where they tore her sweatshirt off. I think it is a deliberate intimidation tactic.

On what grounds was he telling her to get out of the car? Is he a traffic cop?

Good question. No authority and no grounds whatsoever. A professional law enforcement officer's take, not mine.
