I am white. Have been stopped by police at various times in my life. They always asked for ID. BTW, from the small video I watched, she looked crazy walking in the street waving her arms, especially when there was a sidewalk.
It was a set up.
Just another black attempting to get her 15 minutes of fame, and maybe some cash. If the pick-up had hit her, she would have sued the driver, and probably the police for not patrolling enough.
“The cops were polite enough but there was no reason to ask for ID.”
I agree but the police are trained to always ask. She could have refused.
Sorry, but almost any encounter you have with police these days they ask for your ID. I was passenger in a car with a missing windshield wiper, in August, with no rain. I was asked for my ID and produced it. The cops were fishing for something, I don’t know what. I was irritated, but no way would I argue with them. I chirped at them, told them what I was thinking, but co-operated just the same. Probably was a “riding while native american” bias.
So, only felonies? Or only if a citation is eventually given? Would she have preferred the ticket, do you think?
Really, I'm curious. Just when and where can the police ask for ID from a person who's committed an offense in their presence?
if people don't like interacting with the police, they shouldn't behave in ways guaranteed to attract their attention.
It was probably a mental health stop.
May have been bur she went right o the race card when the officers tried to deal with her
You can be an university “dean” and be stupid at the same time. No law or guarantee against it, as she proved.
Next time she may end up as one of Hillary’s “bumps in the road” and nobody will give a good crap.
One less Darwin Award nominee to contend with.
Did you watch the video?
The police dash cam and their report said she was almost hit by a pick up truck and was impeding traffic.
The video isn’t very good, but from the way she was dressed, it might not have been possible to identify her race until she turned around AFTER she had been stopped.
What a dim witted dean. Getting a great job she does not deserve from affirmative action was not good enough. So she prayed every day she would hit the ghetto lottery while out for a stroll
Even though she lives in a wealthy non- ghetto part of town.
What a laugh!!!!!
How is it suspicious that some dope at a tax funded public university benefited from affirmative action? Another rip off of the taxpayer!
Standard procedure with lots of precedents.
I don’t understand your reference to tea party in there. Are you praising the Tea Party or blaming the Tea Party?
They do it in my neighborhood all the time. Like establishing their dominance over "turf".
we had a death in our townships a few years back where woman was hit from behind walking on the wrong side of the road.For a short time police were cautioning people that the law says to walk facing traffic. I don’t know if they do that any more but walking with your back to traffic with ear buds invites disaster.
She can take her phone but canât take ID?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Why not take a picture of ID and keep on phone...Just in case you lose wallet or like this, out and about with phone and no ID?????
Of course that would be racist or sexist for suggesting it.
We have a society that almost demands an ID for 99% of daily actions yet rebel at the suggesting of showing one when voting or ‘stopped’ by police?
Some insanity is just unexplainable.
Like Black Lives Matter except for Black on Black and visits to the Abortion clinic.
