I'm Just Trying To Cut The Grass! Why Are You Calling The Law On Me?

Mr. Reggie Lawn Services was an idea of a 12 year old boy. Tell me, why someone call the law on this boy for cutting grass?

Remember Tamir Rice was 12 years old and he was shot by the Cleveland Police. He was playing with a toy gun when a white person called 911 on him. He was shot and killed on sight by a rookie cop who had no business being in the uniform.

In the suburban community of Maple Heights, Ohio, a woman was angry over a neighbor deciding to call the law on a group of little kids cutting the grass.

This is becoming a big, big issue. The police are being called on people of color  for minor or non criminal offenses.

Okay,  Reginald "Reggie" Fields has decided to do some work for the summer. He and his friends start a lawn mowing service. They go door to door asking if they could cut the grass for their neighbors.

He is only 12 years old and wants to stay off the streets.

So tell me, why did the neighbor decide to call the law on him and his friends.

Because there was glass clippings in his freaking driveway. Yeah, the freaking driveway. So this made Lucille Holt whip out the phone and start recording the interaction with the responding cop.

On her Facebook video she is angry that for years the neighbors decided to call the law on her for issues like punishing her child to having children playing in the street.






The video being shared has 500,000 views and it's gotten national attention. As you see, many people of color are experiencing incidents where white people are calling the law on them for relatively minor disputes.

Reggie is just trying to cut grass. He ain't breaking into people's homes.

This is Donald J. Trump's America. Soon he will pick a Supreme Court justice that could swing in favor of law enforcement agencies. If a cop shoots and kills an unarmed suspect on the grounds of a pending danger, the Supreme Court could rule in favor of that. It would eliminate policies enacted by the Fourth, Fifth and Eighth Amendment.

This is one of many incidents where Becky and Tommy decided to find 911 as their savior to Black people being, "Oh so scary!"

There is a GoFundMe page devoted to helping Reggie get his business more equipment for his business.
