“The situation in American law is that allowing a dangerous suspect to escape, deliberately allowing that, can be negligence on the part of police officer or department.”

“Once the cops were called, then at that time, regardless of how nice they were, they, the airport police were responsible for the decision to jail Rosetta. The airline crew does not make that decision.”

That aircraft was not fit for human accommodation and was in fact, a biohazard.

I only recently moved back to the UK, I spent my entire adult life in the U.S. so I know shooting tyres is generally not part of the training. But I feel like it should be?

It’s funny that you see race as the cause of failure, but want to believe that being of colour is what has made her successful instead of facing that possibility that being black in America isn’t the great advantage you have no basis to claim.
