Sheriff calls for backup over wrong Burger King order
Body camera footage captured the moments deputies came to the sheriff's aid to deal with a incorrect Burger King order.

Even worse somehow:
The video posted by Cavender claims that deputies were dispatched to "speed" through Cobb County to respond to Sheriff Owens' issue at a nearby Burger King. The video appears to depict the deputies running red lights and using their sirens.
The intersection of !fuckcars@lemmy.world and ACAB.
It's a good example of !thepoliceproblem@lemmy.world.
Why do they feel the need to protect and serve the Sheriff in this way?
"I was not in my uniform, and at no point in my interaction with the staff did I identify myself as a member of the law enforcement community," Sheriff Owens said. "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."
His excuse seems to be that anyone could have called the police on the Burger King employees for giving someone the wrong order, to which I would say:
B. Do you think that deputies would have rushed across town to deal with just any random crank, angry at a Burger King?
