I heard it's the baddest street in the whole USA.

The further down the block you went the badder it got.

My white girlfriend was at an estate sale two weeks ago. The owners left and told her and her mother they could have whatever else was left on the porch.. so they went sorting through it with permission.. and the neighbor took pictures of them and called the police.

They had no idea of this and before they knew it they had police with guns drawn on them.. they had to show the police their receipt of some of their purchases then had to try and call the owner to verify things..

Some neighbors can't really access the situation correctly and should probably mind their business. It's not always a black and white thing.. Although this very much looks to be a racial thing considering the woman kept saying hurry up.. even when the police said it was okay. She did not want him there.

Being a nosy bitch is weak af, but what alleged crime did she commit?

Correct. Let's all remember we're now living in the age of "see something, say something". Maybe she just did what our culture now dictates.

If I were black i'd be suspicious of any white person in Memphis. That's like seeing a giraffe at the North Pole

Interesting way to look at it, and I agree.


Not saying this isn’t just some loon calling on a guy doing his job, but we hear it all over the news time and time again when some large scale incident happens that persons A and/or B saw something but didn’t say anything for fear of being “that guy.”

If you’re rational, the whole “why would you even call the police?” question is usually answered.

I gotta say, I think it's pretty funny when black people get the cops called on them for what white people think is them breaking into a house. It really came to my attention with the Henry Louis Gates incident. "I know President Obama!" That was some funny shite.

If their neighborhood has one of the signs, I don’t think anybody from any side should be surprised.

In a refreshing twist, the officers listened to Hayes and told the woman that if she interfered with his work, she would be arrested.

Because black men are just gunned down by cops every fricking day.

OP left off the picture of the white lady, Gladys Kravitz.



Speak up if you know who she was without googling her.

Yeah, that was some retarded hyperbole.
