re: Pregnant Woman Slammed to Ground and Arrested for Refusing to Give Her Name

White lady answers all questions asked, goes on about her day.

Black lady throws down the race card, refuses to answer basic questions like her name, gets dealt with.


Seems pretty cut and dry what happened here.

I almost kind of agree with this. The lady who got arrested, sort of brought this on herself. She was all animated, and started to walk off when the cop was trying to talk to her. That right there was enough to cuff her. She was resisting.... BUT this issue wasn't even enough for the cops to even be called out. Pussy white lady called them.

That lady brought it on herself. Furthermore, she's exaggerating the "fall to the ground". If pregnant woman were as fragile as they sometimes claim, then they shouldn't even be out and about.

WTF? I have no clue where to even start with this crap.

The COP brought it on! He was outside of his legal rights to demand anything from her. That has been established!

And you are dead fricking wrong. You do not have to cooperate with cops when they are breaking the law!

And, you stupid fricking twit, I can confirm with absolute fact that a preganat woman should not be forced onto her stomach on hard surfaces and forced to endure super high levels of stress.

Once again, if there is a crime, then he can ask for ID. If no incident filed, NO ID has to be given.

The COP is the one responsible to know the rules and not think he can force free people to do what he feels like at the time. All he had to do is WALK THE frick AWAY! THere was NO incident report filed!

And what should they have done? Waited until she decided to get off the phone? Or perhaps when it was convenient for her?

---

Since they had already determined that a crime wasn't committed, yes.

her voice alone was reason enough for arrest in my book

This statement damages the credibility you'd built in this thread. It's a good thing law enforcement officers don't arrest by your book, or people like this women would wind up detained while more dangerous folks roamed. It's safe to assume that there were more pressing ongoing situations or problems that the police could have diverted their attention towards rather than giving an emotionally upset woman a hard time just because she was a little rude.

Anyone defending the cops here can get fricked.

If she doesn't have a gun whipped out or about to stab you with a knife, there is no legitimate justification for throwing down a pregnant woman. Nothing at all.

Seems like an 8 month pregnant woman would take the necessary steps to avoid confrontation that might lead to undue stress or physical harm of her child.

You mean like not break any laws?

What law did she break?

The police were called and the woman admitted being involved in the road rage situation. Is it actually ok for her not to give her name when the cop asks for it in that situation?

I'd be on her side if it was just a cop walking down the street but seems to me like she had to comply based on the circumstances.

Yes. Unless he is arresting or citing her for something she doesn't have to give him any information. Her name wasn't important to the road rage investigation and it had already been determined nothing illegal happened.
