Considering she’s white and a woman and resisting, I think they did a pretty gentle treatment of her. Imagine this scenario had it been a black male. He might not be alive to later be interviewed by Fox.
Oh yeah, he was calm, polite, and never used anything resembling excessive force. If everyone were treated like that by the police the police would have a much better reputation.
No no no. She was in the bank participating in commerce. That makes her an Article 4 Traveler™
I would have had a LOT less patience with her, personally. Once she started spouting “mah raghts” crap, that is when it might have gotten ugly if it were me. Your rights stop at the end of your nose, which by the way is not covered and is putting everyone else in danger. When are these idiots going to realize that all the spittle and hot air they’re spewing could easily be covid-laden and that’s what masks are for? Pontificate about rights all you want, just do it with a mask on, idiot.
But the virus is a hoax. And Real President Trump is to be praised to the skies for Project Warp Speed that created a vaccine for it.
Lighten up, Francis!
Oh, how so?
I love this. “Get real” Hahahahaha.
I just want to point out that a few months ago in my town a mentally disturbed Black man (seriously - he really was off his meds) went out on his porch with weapons and attempted suicide by cop. Two hours later the local police had him in the back of a squad on the way to the hospital with nobody hurt (including said angry neighbor) and nothing broke. Of course, it didn’t reach the national news because no one got hurt and no one sued. While there are far too many police that need to be reined in, there are also police officers who do a tough job and truly do try to avoid hurting people, and not just White women.
It’s bizarre that she repeatedly says that. Did she think that the cop was going to have a sudden epiphany and realize that COVID-19 is a hoax and masks are a joke?
A few months ago I called the cops for a nutso young black man incoherently harranguing all and sundry at the condo complex I’m in charge of. I’d interacted with the guy myself one-on-one and he was obviously way disconnected from reality.
4 cops & 3 paramedics showed up, talked with him for 45 minutes, then eventually subdued him against some resistance but without violence, and hauled him off to the hospital.
Pretty much ops normal around here. Do we have jerk cops too? Yup. But not all, and certainly not all the time.
The other night I saw on Audit the Audit a black SovCit get pulled over for some minor traffic infraction. The unknown Kalamazoo cop got an A+ while the driver traveler got a C- I think largely on the host having little patience for SovCit baloney. The interaction was remarkably calm on both sides.
A video of her second arrest has emerged. This one looks like she went into the store intending to make a big scene. She appears to put up less resistance this time, and doesn’t end up on the floor.
I’m starting to think she doesn’t go to stores unmasked for the protest.
I see what you did bear there.
Am I the only one who heard the cop mutter “Jesus Christ” right before he cut the cam? Classic.
How nice-thoughts and prayers.
He’s really thinking: “Crap! Today was supposed to be easy and instead I’m about to be a YouTube sensation. Hope the Boss has my back on this one.”
I love that smugness. “Well, I WANT my phone.”
