that police tend to take.
In the moment, on the scene, you're NEVER going to win in an argument with police from the angle of making it about race. It's a non-starter.

Given the laws of the state of Connecticut, she'd have more likely ended up in jail for refusing to show her ID. Peep the link above.

The only answer police HAVE to give you is whether or not you're being detained or are free to go. I don't make these rules fam...but I try to be WELL aware of them in this day & age.

>LAW ENFORCEMENT.
Ol gal called the police...not the campus security. That's why they came. That's just the facts as presented in the video.

It is...but the white girl set it off by calling the cops, not the RA...

As for the white chick, she got the results she wanted. She got the Black girl harassed by the cops. Got a public record of the interaction and NOW she's got a case to claim that she feels "threatened" because of how the Black girl put all of this out on the internet. My point is still that we got to be smarter about how we proceed in certain situations. This is one of those situations.

I can't speak on those cases because I don't know the ins and outs. I'm sure it was a terrible situation for them to be in though.
