You have an articulate and good looking black woman who probably came from up north some where and you have a very red neck white officer with that hickey kind of country accent. He's probably spent his entire life within 10 miles of where that incident took place. I bet he has a half dozen confederate T shirts.
For some reason, and you can see it here on the USMB, conservatives and right wingers believe you should just give up every right you have and instantly jump at what a police officer says, no matter the circumstances, or you get what you deserve. Especially if you are black, Hispanic, gay or some other minority. It's an example of the ultimate police state.
So he stops her for not using her turn signal. Of course she should use her turn signal, that's what it's there for. He should have just given her a ticket or a warning. And if it was some other white with that hickey accent, you know he would have only given a verbal warning if he had bothered to stop them.
And I'll tell you something else. I have relatives in the deep south that I spent some vacations and a couple of summers with growing up. I speak perfect "Yawl (or as some USMB members insist, "ya'll"), and I have been stopped because my license is from out of state and I just start talking Yawl and they suddenly talk very nice and have never given me a ticket.
Clearly that officer provoked her and escalated the situation with "put out your cigarette" and "step out of the car" and arresting her. It wasn't that he wanted her respect. He wanted her to cower and shuffle and she wasn't having it. So in his tiny and racist little mind, he was teaching her a lesson and it was within his right to teach her that lesson no matter what the actual law said because of who he was, the uniform he was wearing and who she was. In that part of the country, it's the "natural order" of things.
If she was that smart she would have been sensitive to regional variation. She wasn't. She was a depressed, suicidal liberal...who chose not to continue.
I can't believe how restrained that cop was. If she had been white, it probably would have been a lot worse. You don't fuck with cops down here. Seriously. There are repercussions if you think they are wrong, but you don't take that up with them on the street. She was just belligerent and she lost it anyway, he did a great job keeping his cool with the whacked out ho
Cop says get out of the car, you get out of the car. If the cop says stand on one leg and bark like a dog, you stand on one leg and bark like a dog.
If you take issue with it, remember it's being recorded, and sue them after the fact.

First of all, why would any black person on the planet want to work and live in Texas only God knows. This is a state that murdererd a president, drug a black man behind a car and who houses the biggest idiots in politics, Bush and Perry....but with than being said, even if she did kill herself, she did so after being bullied and humiliated by some bully cop that don't like blacks talking back to them.......these bastards act like they own us. For once I would love to see some sorry as cop murder blacks over something more serious than nonpayment of child support, failure to signal, walking in the streets and not on the side walks or selling e cigs on a cornor....damnit

Not gonna happen. If you want a police state, that's what you do. I don't want a police state.
She didn't give the cop a hard time. He gave her a hard time.Cop says get out of the car, you get out of the car. If the cop says stand on one leg and bark like a dog, you stand on one leg and bark like a dog.

Well then, give the cop a hard time, and go to jail. I don't care.
The timeline says different. It says the cop was being an authoritarian dick.What rule says one cannot smoke in one's own vehicle?
When a cop wants you out of the car he doesn't need a lighted cigarette flicked into his face.
Only for their lack of professionalism and their bullying behaviour.You cant blame cops for her stupidity.

Remember, according to conservatives, a white militia may point their loaded weapons at the authorities, but black people may not talk back in the face of indignity and unconstitutionality.
They wait now for their lawyer and their million dollar civil suit.I certainly wouldn't let a loved one languish in jail for 3 days, especially if I knew she was already suicidal. Wtf is wrong with that family?
All of a sudden she's their loving sister or whatever. They're so full of shit!
Every cop in the country is trained to insure nothing can be used against them as any sort of weapon. That includes cups containing any liquid, car keys, any food items, etc. That's why every fucking cop tells everyone they stop to "please put out the cigarette". No cop wants a lite cigarette flicked in their face.

Wait a minute
Why should the cop be forced into breathing in that smokers toxic filth?
He had every right to ask her to put it out and she should have.
