Black privilege

[1019487]

The first thought I had coming across this thread was

“that's a pretty creative oxymoron”

 

[Mercurygirl]

Black privilege?? This the funniest shit I seen on here definitely lmao. As a 21 year old black man who lives in a city where 6 cops killed an unarmed black man in handcuffs, who's been pulled over about 30 times since 2015, and who's family has also been terrorized by police, Mercury is speaking straight bs lol. The definition of privilege is having an advantage in some way, shape, or form and I promise you black people have none in this society. So relax mercury and hold your L of a thread.

Name and location please.

And how many black criminals have killed cops in that racist city you live? How many blacks have murdered other blacks?

Isn't curious that since Chicago stopped its proactive policing policy, that is, targeting people who have long criminal records and are known gang members, the decrease percentage in searches is near exactly the same as increase percentage of violent crimes. Good job Obama. Way to help your hometown and community. Gun violence is up 20% from last year but at least that one bad white cop isn't killing that one resisting arrest black guy. As long as blacks are murdering each other in record numbers all is good. Fucking idiots.

It is illegal to jaywalk. If you looked into it, you'd find that he crossed against a light causing two cars that had the right of way to brake suddenly. Shit like this can cause an accident. Mr. Shipman didn't have to carry ID but he could be detained until they determined his identity since he committed a crime. Mr. Shipman even states he didn't think he was stopped because he is black so fuck off with your liberal racist narrative.

Did you see the TV interview with Mr. Shipman? I did. You have nothing to offer except insults and news articles. You have no original thought.

Perhaps "hooked on phonics" works better.

(19) A violation of this section is a noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable pursuant to chapter 318 as either a pedestrian violation or, if the infraction resulted from the operation of a vehicle, as a moving violation.
318.18 Amount of penalties.—The penalties required for a noncriminal disposition pursuant to s. 318.14 or a criminal offense listed in s. 318.17 are as follows:
(1) Fifteen dollars for:
(a) All infractions of pedestrian regulations.


http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes...ute&URL=0300-0399/0316/Sections/0316.130.html

So a 15 dollar fine with no right to detain becomes a 200 dollar fine with a right to detain and a requirement to give ID? That's called jaywalking while black.

Speeding is a noncriminal offense in some states but it is still a crime and citable.

Did you know they were doing jaywalking enforcement in that area, at the time this happened? I bet you didn't.

"Speeding is a noncriminal offense in some states but it is still a crime and citable." That's actually funny. How is a non-criminal offense a crime?And No they weren't doing jaywalking enforcement at the time. Did you hear that on Fox and Friends?

The officer has an attitude on first encounter. He is aggressive and antagonistic. The officer cites him for something he didn't even commit.
One of Bolen’s citations says Shipman violated Florida Statute 322.15, which states, “Every licensee shall have his or her driver license, which must be fully legible with no portion of such license faded, altered, mutilated, or defaced, in his or her immediate possession at all times when operating a motor vehicle and shall present or submit the same upon the demand of a law enforcement officer or an authorized representative of the department.”

Shipman wasn’t operating a motor vehicle, though. He was operating his feet.

Bolen gave Shipman a citation for failing to obey a pedestrian control signal, a $62.50 fine, and drivers license not carried/exhibited on demand (322.15), a $136 fine.

According to the Florida Times-Union, the JSO is reviewing the video, but Officer Bolen isn’t under investigation at this time.

The article is local and makes no mention of any jaywalking enforcement.

Of course it doesn't. That would go against the walking while black false narrative.

You have to read and understand your own links. Your article does reference jaywalking enforcement. Currently they are handing out educational pamphlets, not fines. BTW, your article is about SOUTH FLORIDA:
"Police throughout South Florida are turning up the heat to save pedestrians from fatal encounters with cars. And also to protect drivers from being forced to brake for someone unexpectedly crossing the middle of a street."

Mr Shipman was in Jacksonville.

I knew you would come back with this. You failed to note that in an earlier post I said the Jacksonville Police told CBS News they were taking part in a statewide jaywalking enforcement program. The article talks about South Florida because it is a South Florida paper. Maybe you should call up the Jacksonville Police and ask them about the program.

Here is an article about the jaywalking enforcement from a Jacksonville paper:

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

"This week's heightened enforcement is part of the second phase of a four-month grant from the Florida Department of Transportation. During the first two months of the grant’s period of operation, driver education materials were distributed during interactions with individuals in these areas, the Sheriff's Office said. "

Noncriminal offenses are civil offenses. It's in that code enforcement area with getting fined for not mowing your lawn and shit. You have to pay $$, but there's no record involved and you can't be arrested for it.

A police officer can issue someone a fine for jaywalking, but they can't haul them off to jail for it. The threats the officer made to jail the man, and the charges for made up laws are all inappropriate & abusive. The fine amount on the jaywalking ticket is too high too.

The victim in question will end up suing the city and walking out with a settlement (no huge million dollar affair, but certainly several thousand).

That officer should get fired (but won't, cuz circle the wagons yadda yadda).
