USA
I am not super familiar with US criminal law and jurisdiction but wouldn’t a bright prosecutor be able to at least drag her in front of a judge for false accusation notwithstanding attempted unlawful detention/duress/battery/manslaughter/murder?
The time when the court and police will hold a white woman accountable for crime against a black man is when Emmet Till get's justice for his murder.

Aka. Not in the United States of White America.

Glad to see some semblance of common sense in the world

South Africa had a similar incident a few years ago where a white woman went off at a black police officer, who SHE had called to assist after her car as broken into.

She used the equivalent of the N word at him like 50+ times in the video.

But she didnt just get fired, she got 3 years in jail

Maybe one day the USA will come down harsher on those who act like this, because it seems like every week there is a new story about this kind of behavior. And im sure we only see the 2% that gets reported.

I understand and agree. But just to have her go through the ordeal, mentally and financially.

Maybe it's futile. Fuck

This is one of the reasons why I at times am scared of coming across certain people in a park, walk-in down the street whatever.
I could easily get killed for literally doing nothing. Reminds me of when I was 15 visiting a friend who lived in a rich white neighborhood and walking to his house for a weekend stay over and having an older white woman following me in her car. She slightly rolled down the window and said she was going to call the cops cuse she thought I didn’t belong in the neighborhood and was going to rob someone.

I told her mam I’m walking to my friends house right there. She slowly followed me in her car tillI got to my buddies house and he let me in.
It’s sad to see this shit hasn’t changed.
Thankfully now we have ways to expose it but when I was 15 we had no cameras in cell phones or any of that.

The way she hysterically escalates this from nothing into a chilling call to the police makes me wonder how many times she's done this (or similar) before and got away with it. What else has she been responsible for whilst using her liberal credentials as a smokescreen, and how many perfectly normal people have been at the mercy of her toxic behaviour. Just on a day to day basis she must be just a vile person to deal with if she can lose her shit this easily. They way she treats her dog says all you need to know about her regard for other living things apart from herself.

The way Mr. Cooper has handled this says a lot about him as a person and Amy could learn a hell of a lot from him. A really depressing and unnecessary situation for a gentleman like that to be involved in that will stay with him now. At a time when the whole world is under pressure and on edge it's even more important to look out for each other, which makes this situation even more vile for me. Sad times.

Get Out brought this up years ago.
My line was a reference to that film, wouldn't take credit.

Well that's fucking harrowing. These people are literally insane.

I don't know how she can even try to call herself not racist with that video existing.

Of course, she will have a line of stalwart defenders, but literal Nazis have those.

No, just a 95 percent chance they show up and side with her.
If it was your life on the line you'd risk it?
Of all the times to be saying this...
They just can't help themselves.
I've had multiple run ins with the NYPD.

*hint hint*

It's been a mixed bag and the one time I seriously did something wrong was one of those times the cops were cool and understanding and just brushed off the actions of my friends and I.

Also if you really care about reforming the nypd you would know and want the approximately 10% the leadership is protecting to be removed. A small minority of the nypd is the cause disprotionately for like 30% of the complaints and another good chunk can be levied at the stupid policies of both police captains and our political leaders creating systemic racism.

There definitely a lot more racists in the nypd than those two small groups but I have never had to fear for my life.

It is not guaranteed.

Actions like this should have strong consequences. Good on FT for not putting up with this bullshit. Absolutely horrific and the definition of systemic racism. This poor gentleman was just enjoying the nice weather ffs.

Did any of these run ins involve a white woman hysterically screaming that an African American man was threatening their life?

For the record, I know it's not assured that anytime the NYPD interacts with a black person, they will kill them. But in the scenario like this one, I'd bet money that the cops would show up siding with the white woman.

You mean the people who were enslaved and segregated for centuries upon centuries don't trust the people who enslaved and segregated them?

That isn't racism.
Yeah they have reasons, no doubt. Still, there are some vicious anti-white segments of society in SA, and you can't put blame nor target an heterogeneous group like that. Also, mixed people from Western Cape also experience that racism, and of course a lot of afrikaaners are still racist as fuck; is messed up.

In my cases no.

In the end even SSJ2 Karen decided to not stick around and wait for the police.

As much as she knew she could leverage cops with her crocodile tears she had enough time to reflect on the fact she was recorded and decided not to risk her plan backfiring on herself.


It turns out she needed to be ultra instinct to dodge the backfire ;)

*snickers*

Hmm

So would you characterize the violence that existed between the Irish and British back in the day as both sides being bigots?


Hmm

This story wouldn’t have gained so much traction without the dog abuse, sad to say.


She went into “an African American man is threatening me” as easy as a cop lies about “fearing for my life”. It’s a learned excuse to legally harass, brutalize and kill black Americans.

You know, it could have been another innocent black bystander that the cops ran into that day because of that false report. And despite someone actually playing PR for the NYPD in this thread, unnecessary interactions with police officers who overly police black men isn’t a win just because they don’t beat your ass.

No one should be detained or questioned because a white woman didn’t like being told what to do

This is messed up and she obviously overreacted. Her explanation is so messed up. I don't know how I feel about her losing her job, since it affects more than just her (if she has a family, I never dug that far).

ok this is a serious question that I've been wondering for a while and have read up on, but when exactly did the term "African-American" become a pejorative? As far as I remember, it was pretty widespread from the 80's through the 00's.

From what I've read, it's still used by some:



I understand that it's a term that many black people find fault in, because a) not all black people have african roots, b) it conjurs up a connection to slavery; however, I'm curious as to when it started having a negative connotation.

From the Duke post, the author thinks that it's as egregious as "Asian-American", but that doesn't seem to carry the same negative connotation that's on the same level as "African-American"

No sympathy at all. Threatening to call the cops and say an African American is threatening her is for the exact reason she intended no matter how dumb she pleads, to either make him believe or genuinely put his life in danger.

Actions have consequences. She knew exactly what she was doing specifying that the person "threatening" her was African American. Expecting the white cavalry to roll up and dispense that sweet racist justice to protect her fragile whiteness.

She should absolutely lose her job. That's the bare minimum she should lose.

given where she lives, it’s not a stretch that she’ll probably lose her apartment too.

Like saying "homosexual" instead of "gay," it makes it clear you don't actually know any black people. They're like an abstract concept you've read about in a book.

It’s strange you’re worried about her hypothetical family, as if this white woman wont be given millions of chances in her life.

She had a high level position. My inclination is to worry about the hypothetical black Americans that she might have passed over for a position for “some” reason.

I sincerely doubt it’s the first time she’s leveraged race against someone, considering her performance.

Do you mean the N-word? That actually makes sense.

That hasn't always been the case though, right? I mean it was pretty prevalent at one point (as was homosexual), but they both just became something worse than intended, with good reason.
