So, I Googled Shooting Brake:

So....if it was against the law to pull her over in the first place (as I have been told by cops a few times: ignorance is not a defense of the law) and the prosecutor says she should not have been removed from the car ipso facto shouldn’t the pig, err....officer be removed from his position as he clearly doesn’t know…

Hell, he gave himself to us freely. (And it should probably count for something that he went through the relative pain in the ass of becoming a citizen to do it, too.)

Because that could lead to a civilized discussion that would be much more difficult for him to quickly escalate into a racism based arrest and battery.

“Ma’am, the reason I pulled you over is because your tail light is out.”

If you want to be equal parts entertained and infuriated, check out his Police Raids episode. Dude does his homework.

I did a double take when I saw this in my recommends this morning but I made sure it was available when I came back from my morning walk and was so glad I did. Gold!

“And if your response to this is ‘Hey not all white people!’ maybe think about why that’s your first response.”

John Oliver is a national treasure.  Yes, we have stolen him from the UK and he is ours.  

Honestly kind of surprised that this is the first his show has come up on The Root. Done quite a bit of “hey, white guy here, look at this stupid fuckery we get away with, fellow white people”. Granted, doing any of that would lead to some deep dark fuckery there to disappoint, sadden, and tarnish every part of…

Sprayed with water and tapped his head... holy fucking shit. I need to see the rest of that interview (Hello Aldis Hodge...)

Came here to say exactly this! I was at first thinking I heard him wrong, then I was like: oh. Hearing him talk about Black hair like he has some, coming out in his Brit accented uber-white and bespectacled face was GOLD.

I’m not totally surprised that he and his crew did this right, because he really does tend to do the things right.
