"I'm not even black and you threw me down"

What a piece of garbage.

Her experience being black would've gone sour way more quickly.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 5 points 5 hours ago

She looks and sounds exactly like I would imagine.

[–] theherk@lemmy.world 42 points 8 hours ago

I’m not doing this right now.

You think this is still optional. Fuck cops generally, but as soon as they’re engaged, you’re out of options until court. This guy was pretty patient.

It's really sad to see someone at a very low point in their life.

"Get your hand off my penis!"

I see you know your judo well

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Are you also waiting to receive my limp penis?

The part that still blows my mind is that video was one of his more normal encounters with law enforcement.....

[–] urno@lemmy.world 29 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

What an utter waste of public services.

This is a textbook argument for just sticking this type of bonehead in the stocks overnight. Imagine the current supply of lettuces available to be launched at them!

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 points 12 minutes ago

Pillories. Stocks attach to your ankles and would let them lie down. The thing you are likely thinking of that secures the neck and wrists is a pillory.

I sentence you to pink eye!

My wife is addicted to this type of video. I think most of them are skits that people act in to make a point. And they stretch it out longer than it has to be. Woman is trespassing, give her a set time (say, 60 seconds) to vacate the property. If she does so, take her information so the restaurant can bill her. She doesn't pay, they sue her in small claims court and win, plus she pays legal fees. So "buy now pay later" with more steps. She doesn't, it's criminal trespass and they're in the right to sit her in a jail overnight. And the restaurant still sends her a bill for the meal. Not rocket science. Not a cop, not a lawyer. Certainly not a rocket scientist.

My argument is we have a social agreement as a society, you see the establishment, you see the prices, you agree to dine at the restaurant and pay for your food. It's not a buy now pay later setup, no sending her a bill.

An exception can be made if she came forward and was like "I fucked up", can I come in an hour or tomorrow and pay my bill.

But her entitled ass acted like a child, then got racist and wasted so much time and energy. No sale. Pay your shit and leave, or go to jail for theft of services. Complete waste of oxygen. I've seen children and pets act better than this bullshittery.

I go out of my way to not inconvenience others, then people like this exist and make me want to kill them for being utter ass holes. Zero sympathy from me.

And I hate cops, so that tells you something.

1/3 people are assholes.

This is why we have so many problems.

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

fully agree. i tend to be a lot harder on people who do things intentionally, even basic shit. littering, damaging property. intent matters, but yes, fuck everyone who makes someone else's life or job harder for "funsies". die in a fire. you get like one chance to clean up your act or you're done. no sympathy for this type of behavior without some sort of medical diagnosis that shows a negative disorder.

[–] protist@retrofed.com 8 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I don't think this was stretched out at all, he has her outside the building in cuffs within 2 minutes of engaging her. When he was getting a statement from the restaurant, they said "if she had just left when we asked her to, we wouldn't have even cared about the bill." But now she gets to sit in jail for theft, trespass, and resisting arrest.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

don't forget assault.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 18 points 9 hours ago

She doesn’t pay, they sue her in small claims court

That's an enormous hassle, practically speaking.

One of the reasons the Australian "What is my crime, officer?!" guy got away for so long. The crimes are so petty that they aren't worth the effort to pursue.
