"Gas Station Gail and Rick" call the law on anti-gun violence protesters. |
Also in 2015, Walter Scott was shot and killed after he fled a dirty North Charleston cop. The cop tried to frame Scott by planting his Taser by his dead body. If it wasn't for a witness watching the situation unfold, the cop would have gotten away with it.
Lastly in 2014, a South Carolina trooper stopped an unarmed motorist at a gas station. The motorist was a Black man who was going into his vehicle for his license and registration. The trooper shot him in the abdomen. The dirty cop was charged and convicted of attempted murder.
A white woman decided to call the law on a group of anti-violence protesters.
Why?
Because they were soliciting information.
This is the latest round of white people calling the law on people of color for unnecessary reasons.
The Charleston City Paper reported that according to the protest's organizer, the young "Stop the Violence" protesters were asked to wait outside after handing out anti-violence fliers at another location.
They complied, but a man and woman who pulled up in a pickup truck began calling police anyway.
"I thought she was playing at first," activist Jonathan Thrower, who also goes by the name Shakem Akhet, told the City Paper. “I didn't really think that was gonna happen."
In the audio of the 911 recording, the woman is heard telling police that "it's like a riot out here" and that although she wasn't in danger, the youthful demonstrators were "absolutely destroying the outside" of the store.
North Charleston Police responded to the call, the City Paper noted, but the crowd had already dispersed and no report was taken.
The report noted that North Charleston Police Chief Reggie Burgess has regularly attended "Stop the Violence" rallies in the region — the most recent of which was held on October 1 "in honor of a 2006 domestic violence incident that took the life of a woman and her four children."
The woman was identified as Brenda Metz.
Are you getting tired of white people calling the law on people of color?
Trust me I am.
Are you already registered to vote?
Good.
You planning on voting?
Good.
Are you going to vote? (Expect the dumbest answers to be picked by trolls)
All of these are real issues. Not the distractions of two entertainers mocking Trump and his plastic nightmare of a wife, Melania. I want to be clear that Republicans aren't talking about the economy.
They are talking about how to preserved the "status quo." The Republicans are using the same old tired playbook that Rush Limbaugh, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Matt Drudge, Fox News and Breitbart handed off to them.
They are going to win on the culture war. Bringing up things to scare White voters has worked before and will continue to work if we don't get off our asses and vote this year.
But the Republican Party is far from the family values they've been peddling for years.
These incidents of white people calling the law on people of color is a perfect example of why we need to vote.
VOTE.
VOTE EARLY.
VOTE ABSENTEE BALLOT.
VOTE ON NOVEMBER 6, 2018.
If we keep electing politicians like Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott, we will see more White people calling the law on people of color minding their business.

Graham along with many Republicans are desperate. They are focusing their election hopes on the culture war. Graham along with Mitch McConnell and Ted Cruz vow to dismantle the Affordable Care Act, Medicare, Medicaid and the safety net.
They won't talk about about the economy. They won't talk about Sears and Kmart's demise. They won't talk about the thousands of Americans losing their jobs in manufacturing, retail, e-commerce and construction.
They won't talk about the tax cuts. The tax cuts added $1.4 trillion debt. They claimed that the tax cuts will help Americans. So far wages are stagnant and the stock market seems to be pummeling.
Restore sanity. Hold Donald Trump and Republicans accountable for their failure to govern. Hold them responsible for playing dirty politics and advocating the genocide of people of color through austerity, gun violence, voter suppression and fear mongering.
