Some people think it's more important not to sit idly by and watch one of their neighbors being violated. Apparently, they don't sleep well with that knowledge. But if you can sleep through it, go ahead.
Oh yeah - her friends really stood up for her and jumped in to argue. HAH!
Would it have been that horrid for her to step back a few feet - up into the group of people? I don't think so - and I don't think his initial request was out of line - she was closest to him and I can very easily see how that could become dangerous. She was armed with a camera - someone else in a different situation might have been armd with a handgun or knife. Just how was the officer suppose to differentiate?
"Watch your back" is a respectable thing - he wasn't being horribly out of line when he first requested that - it escalated when she began to argue. He was being polite - very repetative - and only after a few minutes of back and forth engaging with multiple warnings from him did it go further than that.
When he first requested that she step back into the house - would it have been terrible if she had done what he was politely asking?
And you know - this 'she was on her property, she can do what she wanted' isn't some mode of fact 100% of the time. . . depending on the situation it might not be true at all.
