Not anywhere I’ve seen. Where do you live?

So you’re telling me he hasn’t been convicted of perjury, nor are you willing to tell me what his actual reason for ordering her out of her vehicle was, since his first offered reason was found to be false by a bunch of people being spoken to by a prosecutor.

Is that right?

Also, just so you know, he didn’t kill her.

I can go ahead an assume, as can you, that he wanted her alive more than she wanted her alive, what especially since he stopped her from endangering herself and others by carelessly running stop signs onto busy streets.

Maybe Sandra was trollin’ for police to stop her by running stop signs...

On the video, she says she was pulled over for failure to signal, not running a stop sign.

Maybe in your state, maybe even in Texas, but that’s not how it works here in GA. Larger universities and even the big county K-12 school systems have their own police forces, they aren’t covered by the State Patrol or local jurisdictions.

Those “criminal, violent, cowardly and filthy outlaw motorcyclists” are better American citizens than the idiot criticizing them. Plus that keyboard warrior wouldn’t begin to have the balls to actually SAY that to any rider. Mommy probably won’t let them have a motor scooter.

Which he lied about, and was indicted for perjury about same by the recommendation of a grand jury.

So, no, he didn't stop her from endangering herself and others by carelessly running stop signs onto busy streets.

He did, however, stop himself from ever having a career in law enforcement for the rest of his sorry life.

Oh, dang - chris37 had swallowed that "ran a stop sign" self-hook all the way to his intestines, and I was just letting him work it deeper... ;-)

The Texas state trooper was looking for college honeys.

LOL, my first trip to Italy the soldiers boarded our bus at the boarder, one guy said, what do you think they are looking for, the guide said - girls.

She ran the stop sign. It was clearly on the video, she did it right in front of him.

When was the last time you watched the video?

Yes, he actually did, because she is a visibly and demonstrably bad driver.

Or at least she was, because she’s dead now seeing as how she killed herself.

“Those “criminal, violent, cowardly and filthy outlaw motorcyclists” are better American citizens than the idiot criticizing them”

That's kinda how I see it too! I used to ride, but was never a biker, just a guy who liked motorcycles. Motorcycle clubs run the gamut from decent to criminal. That said, these men ( and women) are citizens of this country and are to be presumed innocent until proven guilty just like you and me. Any one with half a brain should be ashamed that Waco is a city in America based on what took place there at the hands or a corrupt (Republican) DA (Abel Reyna), a complicit police department and local judiciary. Were there criminal acts committed that day, yes. Were the hundreds arrested all guilty of those acts, No. Like them or not, most of them were law-abiding people who had their lives ripped apart in ways from which they may never recover.
As for Sandra Bland, I don't know what really happened to her. She clearly had
“an attitude” with the cop, but rather than defuse the situation it appears to me he exacerbated it. I have a big problem with Black Society today, but White people have some responsibility for what goes on with them. It isn't going to get better until those who enforce our laws do so in a color blind fashion. I used to work for a business that has a plant in rural Texas. I was appalled at the racial attitudes I saw displayed there.

Just now.

When’s the last time you watched it?

Go ahead. Watch it.

Get back to me after the part where she runs the stop sign right in front of the cop. It’s within the first two minutes. You literally can’t miss it unless of course you want to miss it.

Only for him and you, but you’re too dumb to realize it.

Maybe you can straighten out MTV News and other national news sites about this, chris.

http://www.mtv.com/news/3123387/sandra-bland-arrest-cell-phone-footage/

"In July 2015, Sandra Bland was stopped by a Texas state trooper in Prairie View, Texas, on the claim that she had failed to use a turn signal while changing lanes."

2:43 “You failed to signal a lane change.”

Now, really go watch it this time.
