I worked in a neighorhood that folks always walked in the street and hardly ever used the sidewalks....drove me crazy.
I asked a guy once from the window of my car “how come you don’t use the sidewalk?”
“There are a mess of spiderwebs over the sidewalk”
Felt it was the most reasonable reason I had ever heard.....e even though I didn’t believe him.
Its a rejection of society’s standards and rules for behavior which is common nowadays.
Although I don’t think that is why Ms Bland was doing it in this video..she was just jammin to tunes and getting her walk in.
May have been bur she went right o the race card when the officers tried to deal with her
