@RLKDLK0816 I have absolute interest in protecting her constitutional rights, but none are indicated here. The girl’s decisions, the actions SHE CHOSE that night controlled that situation. Those officers couldn’t have been nicer or more compassionate with her. The explained over and over and over and over again what was going to happen, but she refused to listen, choosing instead to scream over them what SHE wanted like a spoiled child throwing a tantrum. She was getting arrested, they had to take the baby from her. When she wouldn’t let go and started pulling the infant, what choice did the officer have. She had to let go or the baby could have been hurt. Me I don’t know if this girl was drunk or not. If she was wasted, it wouldn’t excuse her behavior, but it might explain it, but if she was drunk, that would mean she was out drinking with her INFANT! Any way you slice it, this is on the girl.

@charlesstevensEnki My bad. I got it. To call them “hostile” from being enslaved. if I were enslaved, I imagine I would be pretty hostile toward my enslaver. But if I were to out live my enslaver, unless someone had taken his/her place as enslaver, there would be no one left to be hostile to. It’s only natural to have anger, hostility, even rage toward the people who wrong us. Ideally, it is channeled into protest and putting one’s time and energy into ensuring that ‘wrong’ doesn’t happen again to anyone. There is no better example, on par perhaps in India during Ghandi’s time, where injustice has been conquered and the fight for equality succeed than the black American struggle. It is truly remarkable in its achievement. But those periods in history and those struggles had the winds of change at their tails. A scientific revolution was going on. The study of genetics was exploding and undermining, if not all out refuting, the foundation and justification of discrimination. In this country, two World Wars had forced people out of their myopic comfort zones and allowed people to discover for themselves the error in those beliefs that supported discrimination. Those periods were also marked by extraordinary leaders, (Ghandi and MLK among so many others) who brought people together and, at great self sacrifice, championed their cause to success. In other words, THEY WON!
Do slaves have hostility toward their enslavers? I would think so. But how is that hostility warranted by the great, great, great grandchildren of those slaves, toward 1) the great great great grandchildren of the enslavers, 2) all people who “look like” them whose families didn’t come here until after slavery was ended in this country and had no part of it, and 3) who have never done anything to you, nor you to them?? Hostility can be inherited, but as a curse, especially as it grows further from its purpose.

@QueenDivineLove Happy to meet you. I don’t know what you mean by “lies”. Which of the presented facts were lies? Also, I think you are saying that because there were other people in the class who were equally frustrated with the teacher, you thought you were entitled to be difficult with her and then refuse to leave the class when asked. Is that right? If so, I hope you learned the key lessons to take from that experience; 1) NEVER count on people to back you (even if it was their idea in the first place) 2) Choose your battles carefully and never rush into one without thinking it all the way through, 3) Whether you like it or not, authority exists and you must and should respect it. It’s there for a reason you know. Think about the chaos without it. 4) Only fools rush in. Never rush into immediate action in problem situations. It almost always ends badly because it’s leading with emotion, not intelligence. There are many ways to get from A to B. Choose the best one for the situation. 5) If it’s a personal issue, remember, just like you don’t like everybody, not everyone is going to like you. There are tons of miserable people in this world for various reasons; people who resent other people for various reasons. If dealing with them is a necessity, take the focus off of yourself and what you want and try to figure out what they want or need. You will catch way more flies with honey than vinegar in your travels. What it’s really all about is getting you where you want to go, right?
I have to ask though, what the hell was the assignment you did wrong?

Exercise a little empathy and put yourself in a cop’s shoes. You are the cop assigned to an anti-drug trafficking task force. It comes down from headquarters that there’s been an upswing of traffickers using buses to traffic up and down the Atlantic corridor. Thus, you are told to be suspicious of all buses and to perform random checks if a traffic violation occurs. There is a protocol established for such stops and it is taught to you as a member of the task force. You see the bus in this story driving in the left lane (probably at about 50-55 mph as it’s a school bus) impeding faster traffic. That’s why there’s a law prohibiting trucks from driving in the fast lane. You stop the bus. Now when you approach that bus, which is your job to do, you expect 1 of 2 things; either it’s a school bus full of kids traveling thru the state in a bus with out-of-state plates, OR the bus is a beard for a cartel and is carrying 100 kilos of cocaine for distribution, in which case it is reasonable to believe there could be heavily armed people in that bus facing huge mandatory minimums if they get caught; In other words, people who have nothing to lose. If the latter is even remotely possible, wouldn’t you approach with caution? Also, as a cop, you are well aware that “jails are full of innocent people,” meaning criminals never admit wrong doing. You’ve learned NOT to trust what people say, but to remain objective and investigate for yourself. Now you do your investigation and it turns up nothing, as I’m sure many such stops do. You realize apologize for the delay and, recognizing the driver is out of state, let the driver slide on the citation. I guarantee you those guys conducted the stop as they were trained to do. What would you have done differently in their shoes?

@peteveal9836 “We are a ‘cursed’ people”. That is exactly what I’m talking about. That narrative is a self-fulfilling prophecy for some. “We’re cursed.” “There will never be peace between Blacks and police.” Don’t your see that those statements are part of your internal dialogue and effect the way you see yourself and the world around you? Why won’t there be peace between black people and police, at least between law abiding black people. The cops are there to protect them just as much as anyone. But you must understand, law is necessary to the survival and operation of a society. You cannot break the law and then get self-righteous about your rights. You have, in such instances, totally disrespected the rights of others, right? Forget what you think you know about the past. Don’t make it YOUR future when you don’t have to. Many many black Americans are doing as well as anyone else in this country. It’s only about 5-6 % that are stuck in the past. I don’t blame them though. I blame their parents for choosing to have kids but not stepping up to the plate and raising the bar on THEMSELVES to help their kids have a better life than they did, to achieve more than they did. But let’s face it, self-pity is part of American life now, along with deceit, greed and narcissism. BUT, we can do better….we MUST do better.

@daedae1522 Look at it this way. On the state or federal level 1) Definitive specifics would have to be decided on, like who, where, why, how and, of course, how much. That requires agreement, which we see already is unlikely. 2) a bill must be drafted and proposed by a sponsor (touchy political spot considering 80% of the population is against them) 3) it has to be passed through the legislature, 4) before heading to the capitol for signature (again touchy political move). 5) But even if it were to make it through this gauntlet, a lawsuit challenging the Constitutionality of the new law would be filed immediately, likely by a Republican plaintiff, 6) whereupon it would spend the next few years going through the courts 7) only to wind up ultimately in front of the same Supreme Court that 2 weeks ago said “race-based” violates the constitution. Not much question what they will do.

@Sunshine-vg9uq Did you forget to take your meds today? It appears I made 1 comment to one of your posts. “And they don’t even have no relevance to what is being talked about.”……? Do you know the topic? You left “evil, wicked, devils” like me in 2003???? Have we met? Who are the “evil, wicked, devils”?? People who don’t agree with you?? What happened in 2003 to make you leave “evil, wicked, devils”??? What the hell does generational wealth, if it still existed, have to do with this? How do I “get [me] some”?? You DON’T need it?? “What exactly is “this madness” you speak of? and finally, If everyone has an opinion, what makes you believe you can post yours but i can’t do the same??????????????

@peachion2 OK, you choose: a) allow the cartels to freely transport, quite literally, tons of meth, coke, H, crack, and , of course, Fentanyl (which is killing hundreds of thousands of people in this country) OR b) you have law enforcement do their best to intercept as many shipments as possible, thereby saving a few thousand people OF ALL COLORS!!? You can’t do both, so you decide. Save the lives of thousands or inconvenience some lacrosse players for 45 minutes?? Remember….IT’S NOT ALL ABOUT YOU!

@Methodical2 Slowly but surely being led by the nose, BECAUSE they don’t understand the issues, toward a political party that will not only NOT do anything specific for black americans, but will end the programs many of them benefit from now and will silence any further bitching as well. Don’t you realize that most of the crap of late you object most to is the product of republican response to the far left progressive platform? Book banning, gerrymandering,
“white nationalism”, christian fundamentalism, all republican backed. Republicans don’t need or want the black vote, they just don’t want you voting democrat. They are spreading lies and inflaming your passions by catering to your lowest common denominators - ignorance and narcissism. Just the tag line alone reflects this trick. “Democrats haven’t done anything just for black Americans.”. Really? THINK! There are 360 million people in this country. Black Americans comprise 13% of them. The federal governments job is to manage the country as a whole, not cater to every individual special interest group in it. Plus there’s the numbers problem. With a total of about 6% (1/2 the total black population) pushing far left polarizing progressive policies, it would be political suicide to do anything exclusively for them. That’s not how our melting pot works. But most importantly, you have to realize (hopefully sooner rather than later) that if Trump gets into the whitehouse again, none of it will matter as our democracy will end. You feel slighted now? Just wait. If it happens, the progressives will be shut down and shut out completely. So why are those black americans following that rhetoric like lambs to the slaughter? Because the DON’T bother to learn about and understand the issues. I think what Roland is trying to say is that just isn’t good enough. It is essential for all of us to research and understand the many facets of an issue BEFORE forming an opinion about it. THAT is what Roland is saying. He is not talking down to anyone, he is telling you the truth, whether you WANT to hear it or not.
