That is what happened. The dead fat-tard and his accomplice friend were walking down the middle of the street and the cop drove up and told them to get on the sidewalk. At 292 pounds it's not hard to imagine he was presenting a significant obstacle to traffic flow.
But let's use your rather classically American attitude as an illumination of what many First Worlders see as the classic American dilemma: the indulgence of criminal stupidity as an innate right.
Why should 2 fat cigar thieves feel free to walk down the middle of a city street rather than avail their porked up criminal asses of the available sidewalk, and why should a patrol constable not use his authority to suggest they do so? Or is promoting public order and safety really considered to be Little Shit not worthy of the time of even those charged to do exactly that?
This idea that the police are the root of the problem mystifies me, though I agree their Nazi Jackboot approach doesn't help any at all. I have been through US Customs enough to know that a badge and some authority are all you need to make a comically fat subliterate retard into a swaggering power drunk bully. It works rather well with fat women and Canadian Customs, too, BTW.
