That's an interesting development. I admire the way she apologized and can definitely empathize as a Mom. I bet she kicked his ass & gave him hell.
Yeah...that's called being let go with a warning. Hell, a few years ago I was doing 81 in a 55 driving in pretty heavy traffic and the deputy basically told me to slow it down next time. *sigh* Parents.
Wait that doesn't happen to black people Your speed reminds me of a coworker who used to drive me home. We got off at 1230am and she would open it up on the empty highways I never seen people drive that much over the limit, gotdamn lol
You can't blame her. Black people are definitely harassed/stopped more by the police and I bet that makes her sick. So when she got the story from her son, she was willing to believe him without a doubt. Then this video came out and well......like my granny used to tell me and her old ass kids......you are NEVER too old for a whooping Yeah I think I'll wait for the dash cam footage on that one too
I don't blame her one bit. I agree completely, profiling & harassment is a major problem. I know when the story first became public I certainly believed it without question. Your Granny sounds a whole lot like what my Granny used to say.
She spanked one of the grand kids, who then made the TRAGIC (Jesus bless his soul) mistake of saying he was going to get his mom on her That's when shit got real :lol: I was like 17 and he was 6....I loved seeing those little brats catch a shoe
I'd like to hear the tap dancing he did. I mean it was just a ticket. It isn't like his mom is poor or something. What is that like ten cents or dollar to them?
What makes it even more insane is that the deputy was an older White guy. With that said, the fact that I was let off with a warning probably had something to do with the fact that once I knew he saw me speeding, I was already making my way over to the median. Once he got to the car I already had my license and registration in my hands. He pretty much had me dead to rights so there wasn't much I could do.
If I had done something like that and my mom found out about it, no amount of tap dancing would have saved my ass!
[YOUTUBE]P_HCVgTLyCU[/YOUTUBE] got to give uk police some respect calm cool and collected needless to say but I will say it any way. Had this happen over here, He wouldn't be walking out.
Lol 'See.....what happened was...' Speed demon At least you had your shit in your hands and didn't go all hulk on him Sometimes you can catch a break No doubt....i woulda been put into the cobra clutch (again)
It's common I think for uk cops to not carry guns...so of course ur going to have less deaths and 'he went for my gun!' arguments Maybe this was posted... http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/pa-charged-homicide-killing-unarmed-man-article-1.2161001
This was another one of those stories that I saw related to PA. I just didn't mention it. It wasn't posted.
POJ could you explain your state police and their hats to us non PA people? In particular that strap that goes under their chin?
