this is pretty absurd. Everyone needs to stop getting so riled up and ragging on these ski patrol. Yes, they were completely out of line scolding, belittling and harassing you and they ought to owe you guys some form of written apology for that. They are now however, single-handily responsible for thousands of patrons not going to Snow Basin this weekend; that notion is ridiculous. Police officers curse, swear, harass and apprehend innocent citizens everyday, sometimes using force, and are forgiven and given a second chance because their job involves making impact decisions in the heat of the moment. Everybody needs to chill the fuck out, the dudes in this video were clearly calm and cool-headed throughout the encounter and just wanted to prove a point, not completely ruin this guys career / reputation at Basin

His behavior was out of line without the f-bomb.  He was incredibly disrespectful to those kids.  His attitude was not remotely justified.

And it is worth a thread.

The kids were extremely respectful.  They only started to complain after the patroller acted like an idiot.
