+100. How does that PP not see that?? - white woman |
My white friends lives in a rural area in Northern CA. She told me that one time there was a knock on their front door, which was open and (obviously) unlocked. It was a cop. He'd been driving by, and saw that their car door was open, so he just wanted to check that everything was okay. She has three kids who are in and out all the time, and the car door being open was a mistake. The front door being unlocked is just ... how they live. She was like "We had a good laugh about it...." and I just stared at her. |
Nice she lived to tell the story. |
An example of unrecognized privilege. This could have ended differently for a black/brown/Muslim/etc. family. |
Ugh, I missed this one. And this will go unnoticed because we have the cop murder story going. |

That is insane. "When the young men, who are black, were released from jail, they were greeted by family members on that same lawn where they were arrested. Kevin Mincey, the family's lawyer, said that's when officer Storace, who is white, showed up and decided to re-arrest them as well as several other members of their family." |

I get your point but this isn’t ridiculous. It’s criminal and tragic. A human being. A woman. A woman was shit dead in her home by a police officer. How did a woman in her home minding her own busIness become a threat. |
WTAF. |
No way to justify this one! Murder charges. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/14/us/fort-worth-police-officer-charged-murder.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage |

Wait outside for your boyfriend without being searched by police (without a warrant) and have your bloody tampon removed from your vagina in front of a bunch of males officers!!!

WTF. I would've sued for a lot more 200k. That's just nuts. It's shocking that one woman would do that to another. |
Agreed! I’m just shocked that something like that would happen to someone just innocently waiting outside. |

Get the police to solve your loved one’s murder.
