LINK to article with video

Link to video

She if officially pulled over at 2:30
Officer approaches the car with a warning at 8:33 (shite show from there)
She resists arrest at 13:15
What sounds like a taser at 13:20

If you haven't followed this story, she was found deceased in her jail cell from what looks to be suicide.

Overall, I believe the law enforcement office had the right to pull her over because in the video it is clear that she failed to signal her lane change, and from what it sounds she resisted arrest. It's an unfortunate turn of events that clearly forced her to take her own life.

It is an unfortunate situation but I'm having trouble processing this phrase here. How did you reach this conclusion?

i dunno, i think the cop handled this pretty terribly. She asked a million times prior to her resisting why she was being arrested and he never said.

Well, it's ruled a suicide, therefore, she obviously felt compelled to take her own life during this whole process.

It's very unfortunate, but very easy to see.

I think it's the forced part he's having trouble with.

Ahhhh, semantics. I forget those New Orleans guys aren't very strong in that department.

She was pulled over for failing to use a turn signal, that happens to everyone. She was asked to step out of the vehicle because she was acting like a crazy bitch. That was her choice. Sad that she is dead but if she hadn't been giving that "oh no you didn't" attitude from minute one she would probably still be alive today.

No it's not semantics, it's English. "Forced" has a very strong and specific meaning. It's not "influenced" or "led her to", even "felt compelled" means something totally different. Unless I'm missing something, you're making a tremendous leap that seems speculative at best. I politely asked you to clarify and you chose to be a dick. Nicely done.

Justice for not using your turn signal, let this be a lesson.

the fact that she committed suicide means nothing to me (in regards to this convo).

are you telling me that a cop pulls her over for no turn signal when she clearly was getting out of his way and she has no right to be angry or frustrated?

She felt forced to do it. Do you really not see what he means, or is this one of those times where it's cool to appear obtuse to prove an irrelevant point?

Nope. Not at all. I'm just trying to figure out what led to that conclusion. How do we get from an unjust/forceful arrest to suicide--Not only that but "clearly forced? I felt forced to ask.

Well, she took her own life, so something forced her to do that. I'm not sure why this is hard for you. I do know that my plan is working well thus far though.

As you should.

I felt forced to make tacos tonight.

You felt forced to make the Pelicans your team here.

She, unfortunately, felt forced to take her own life.

Or she made the decision to do it for a bunch of reasons.

What are you talking about? It has been explained that op meant something compelled her to kill herself, and you still act like you don't know what that means? Are you retarded? I feel compelled to inquire about your mental health.
