A man was [handcuffed for](https://www.thedailybeast.com/viral-video-of-blind-man-jim-hodges-arrest-sparks-probe-of-columbia-county-florida-sheriffs-deputies) not telling an officer his name/DoB. She pulled over and confronted him because she thought she saw a gun sticking out of his pocket – it was a folded-up cane.

He shows it to her and then she insists on his name and DoB, to which he replies that he is not doing anything wrong so, no. She asks why he is being a dick to her, to which he replies, because she is being a dick to him.

So, be careful out there, you might end up arrested for being where they can see you.
