How about teaching the people who are paid to keep us safe to not violate people’s rights when it’s convenient for them? Respect is not a RIGHT, it’s a Privilege that is earned.

What do you want me to do? Let it go unanswered after someone lets it out of the grays?

What did authority do to earn any respect in this situation?

Please for to be explainink to the group how it is that:

*“the blacks” lack respect for authority by knowing their rights under the Constitution and exercising them

BUT:

*”the whites” have total respect for authority and the rule of law by trying to barge into…

Nothing’s “wrong” there; respecting authority isn’t virtuous. Apply some critical thinking. Children are taught that submission to authority is proper behavior, because they’re dumb but we don’t want them to die. It’s important that they listen to someone who knows something. Once you’re grown, respecting authority is…

You want to have authority respected? How about authority respects the law... how ‘bout that!?

Yeah, so a normal, not-asshole cop could handle a noisy argument like so:

Right, everyone is so respectful of their neighbor’s peace and quiet whenever we hear about a citizen standing up for themselves.

These grays out here staying SO MAD about this with a lot of hypotheticals.

Don’t forget that any time a black woman shows any sort of passion or strong emotion, whether it be anger, excitement, or just simple sarcasm, they get labeled as “sassy”.

some kind of unspoken stereotype of black women that they have to be strong 24/7 and carry everyone on their shoulders. Fuck that. It’s OK to be afraid.

There are only .6% Black people in Montana. Her, the man in her house, and maybe Jimmy down the street. They probably get more outrageous calls about Whites and Native American than Blacks.

I’m so glad she told that cop she was scared of him. I feel like there’s some kind of unspoken stereotype of black folk not feeling emotions like “fear” or “sadness” or “ennui” or “existential terror”. We only get “animalistic anger” or “child-like jolliness”. And we all know what the cops zero in on and expect to…

Blessings to her for putting those prying assholes in their place.
