Since then we get a song and dance about how you grew up in Southeast DC and suffered terribly.

Which is it? New to the area? Grew up in Southeast DC? Can't remember your story?



Op said nothing about growing up in SE-only suggested you visit there or live there yourself!

SE is not the only BAD neighborhood in the country PP-but since you would NEVER venture too far from upper NW-how would you know?

There is a daycare onsite but there is no such thing as a subsidy and there are no income restrictions regarding who can use the Court's care. Even so, OP could have asked her friend or husband to watch the baby or requested a date when she had childcare. Its really disrespectful to the judicial system to bring your child with you. Its the equivalent of bringing your child to a very serious work meeting. You wouldn't do it yet you are bringing your child to the judge's job. In your case the arbitrator was probably just being passive aggressive and stuck it to you because of that. Also, I am AA and women AA judges have been the meanest ones in my cases. I do not know why but my heart always sinks when I walk into Court and I see one on the bench.

Ahhhhhh-fukin-men!!!!!!!!!!

Where does OP mention growing up in SE? Lear to read before making uniformed decisions!

Facts: OP was speeding, got a ticket, had to pay ticket. She thinks she deserved to be let off the hook or it's racism.

[Anonymous]

OP, racism does indeed go both ways.

You assume all the black drivers' tickets were dismissed simply because they were black.

You assume your own ticket was not dismissed simply because you were white.

You are both ways a racist.

I would feel more sympathy for OP if she were accusef of domething she DIDN'T do and forced to pay a fine she DIDN'T deserve. Crying racism over this event is pathetic. Also she clarins that she has experienced racism throughout her life yet could only come up with this story from nine years ago.

Sorry things are so "hard" for you because you are black-I never had slaves, or arrested you, or denied you an education or a job. Blaming people and not taking any responsibilty for your actions is a BIG part of the problem, One of the recent protesters was holding a sign that was very telling-it said something along the lines of "I should be not be shot just for robbing a store". I wish I could find it to post here-but that sign says alot!

I can reach back as far as 24 hours ago-and I am white! Walk around a black neighborhood and see how welcome you feel. Especially given the current climate of things.

Are you kidding? Black neighborhoods in DC are friendlier than white neighborhoods. (white person who posted earlier about her SE neighborhood) Strangers are much more likely to say hello -- at least in my neighborhood. If I were moving again, I would look for another black neighborhood.

Okay now you are just raving, ranting, and foaming at the mouth. I am sorry this thread did not go the way you wanted and that playing the race card did not get you the sympathy that you expected but you are making a horse's ass out of yourself. Shut up.

Ha ha I am not black. Just calling out OP for crying racism because she had to pay her speeding ticket (which she deserved) nine years ago. You, however, sound like a true racist.

Yes, that sign does say a lot. In this country we do not have capital punishment for robbing a store.

Isn't the same logic applied to the infamous cases in Ferguson and NYC? Or is it okay to think so for some people and not others?

NP on this thread, but in other threads I asked time and time again for at least one personal example where people were held back because of their race. No one came forward. My opponents just kept on chanting Ferguson slogans or whatever. I'm sorry, but "systemic" and "wide-spread" just doesn't do it for me. No specific examples? No problem then.
