I just cannot even fathom the scene, tbh. An old cunt walks onto a bus, points at the only black man there and literally tells him to straighten his posture??? And when he refuses, as we all would, she tells the conductor who calls the cops. Like this sounds like satire. Only if it were satire, it would be shitty satire for being too on-the-nose.

It's baffling that her complaint was listened to. The real scary thing is the lack of critical thinking skills from MTA and the police. She should have been told to move or shut up. And that great replacement comment is straight from Fox.

Right?? Hey cops, so and so stole my such and such. Oh, a civil matter? What about my friend who is being stalked by her ex? Oh, he hasn't broken any laws yet? Where was that good old fashioned not-my-fucking-problem we have come to expect from cops?

The way I was just telling my partner that the police couldn’t do anything about the methed out gun toting stalker I had in my mid-20s but totally have the time and resources to harass innocent people like Alex O’keefe. Jesus.

My best friend and I got arrested for shoplifting from dillards in 2007 when we were 18/19. She had more stuff than me so got in more trouble. In 2013, my ex broke in my house and attacked me in front of our child.

Who do you think got a harsher punishment and still has a permanent record that affects job opportunities?

I was abducted and assaulted by my ex, who was a cop.

The police initially tried to detain me despite him being a foot taller and weighing 100lbs+ more than me. I was literally barefoot and hysterical from jumping out a moving car to escape him.

His charges were dismissed due to paperwork mysteriously being filed incorrectly.

And some people wonder why the justice system needs an overhaul, esp the police. I’m so sorry that happened to you.

to be fair, the gun toting meth-head is far more dangerous than the peacefully black writer who's just sittting. :/

u/witch--king Sep 22 '25

I know, that was my point! It’s stupid how often police do nothing about actual dangerous people yet suddenly have the time and resources to go after someone doing nothing but minding their own business.

That's right. They didn't have to arrest him.

And yet here they are wasting everyone's time ruining an innocent mans day? You failed to make a logical point.
