Chase Rail, 18, a skateboarder in Tulsa, Oklahoma had a gun pulled on him for failing to have identification while skating on the campus of Tulsa Community College, according to a story on KTUL.com. The officer told them to leave:
“As soon as he said that we should leave, we started walking towards the car,” Phipps says. “We complied.” . . But Matt says the officers wanted identification. And, when Chase didn’t have any, an argument ensued and a gun was drawn.. . “He pulls it out, points it at Chase and says get on the ground you son of a bitch.”
Luckily for everyone most of it was on tape. “He challenged me, asshoe.”

Nothing new. Happened to me and my friends just for driving by a notorious public pool that we frequently skated. Happened to skater all the time back then. Nowadays the only “protection” against cops is video… and almost every skater has a video machine in his pocket.
Wow… This is just another example of people who don’t know anything about skaters or their lifestyle, and view them as criminals…
Yeah I’m sure the retard skater didn’t do anything to escalate the issue rather than just leave when he was asked to.
simply being on the campus skating, you are breaking the law if the campuse rule is that there is no skating allowed.
also, I love how all these skaters “being abused by the Police!” vids always cut away to part of the video to make the cops look evil…
Where is the full video? I doubt we will see a cop running down the street with a gun pointed at him. Just from the short clip alone, you can see him resisting. I’m sure he was super cooperative before hand.
and the skater is also lucky he is in hickville OK. anywhere else, he would have gotten a beating for swinging that skateboard around. people don’t seem to realize how dangerous a shot to the head from a skateboard is.
Yeah let’s see the whole video instead of what the camera man just edited out and posted. I’m pretty sure that will tell a differen’t story instead of always trying to make themselves the victim. Have some balls and show the whole vid, but then again like many skateboarders, always doing the same bs.
Look – whether or not the kid was a dick, there is simply no excuse for someone, law enforcement or otherwise, to unholster their firearm in that situation. The kid was riding a skateboard for Christsakes…
Anyone with actual law enforcement training would know that you NEVER pull your sidearm unless 1) your life or the lives of others are being threatened, and 2) you intend to use it.
Kid was lucky that the real cops showed up – otherwise that fucking idiot campus cop might have shot him.
im saying this to mister wow okay fisrt off im friends with chase and hes one of the chilest dudes i know. and second i was there and witnessed it. the guy asked us to leave so we did the he asked for everyones id chase didnt have his so one of the security guards grabbed in chases back pocket so he turned around and pushed him. and thats when matt started filming. so fuck you you motherfucking bitch if i ever see you ill fuck you up. talk shit to me BITCH!
@Wow they were on a public street if you didnt hear, and also most of the skaters “being abused by the police” theres also videos of the police abusing other people too so shut your mouth
@brohoe shut your mouth too youre never going to see Wow, and even if you did you wouldnt know it was him so quit tellin people “ima fuck you up” over the internet its pointless
also if you are indeed Chase’s friend, keep us updated on what happens
When the old dude trips and falls from his knees, his gun slides out of the holster (video 0:22). It’s clearly visible and you can actually hear it hit the ground…He’s not “pulling a gun”, he handles it carelessly. Get yer facts straight, everyone!
First off, guns don’t just “slide out” of holsters. The holsters need to be unclipped for a weapon to be drawn. This is consistent with the skaters account of the campus police officer drawing his firearm BEFORE the camera was turned on.
Second, the officer doesn’t just reholster his weapon after it falls out, he points it at the kid AGAIN (at 0:30).
The campus officer is clearly in the wrong here; grossly misusing his firearm and needlessly endangering the public.
Dam! Skateboards are evil I guess! That campus cop better watch who he’s pulling his gun on. Some little skater kid’s…ok fine. But what if he pulled that on someone that actually posed a threat. He would have gotten shot or else the living shit beat out of him!
Why the fuck dose a campus cop need to pack heat in the first place?
God forbid, if the kids have a little fun!! We’ll shoot ya!!!!
the good ol us of a.
land of the free home of the fucking assholes!
It’s simple: Violence begins where brain ends!
