"Atlanta garbaage man jailed for 30 Days for picking up trash too early" Tue Mar-10-15 12:14 AM by neuro_OSX
Whiteness unchecked! Chief Solicitor Bill Riley should be fired and put in jail for this racist bullshit. Folks calling 911 if the trash is picked up before 7am??? 911 ? I would fine every asshole who called 911 for that shit
12. "how many white garbage men work for Waste Management in ATL??" In response to Reply # 7 Tue Mar-10-15 08:00 AM by FLUIDJ
hell... I don't think i've EVER seen a white garbage man on the Waste Management crew that contracts my neighborhood here in VA... Not saying there aren't any....but the odds are...it's gonna be a Black man or Latino out there putting in work...
I mean... I dunno... I think it's more an issue of classism and entitled rich people than anything.... .
that's it. i don't think this has much to do w/race. it's about an out of control, privatized court system which exists to serve the interests of out of control, entitled rich ppl.

The Justice system is a racist system and this is an prime example.

few years.... in the mega sense...of course it's racism..... we need to get more finite and meta with our criticisms and highlighting of injustices....jumping immediately to the mega does more harm and completely deflates buy-in on the injustice from the larger populace that we need assistance from in the struggle... .

I understand your point, but I also see the City of Sandy Springs just like I see the City of John's Creek and Alpharetta.

I'm sorry, buddy, but the American Justice System is a Racist institution. You don't have to like it, but that don't make it untrue. . . . "Today is your day to have a better life -- it's your right."

he was accused of violating a local ordinance - a non-jailable offense, i assume based on my experience (indeed, he expected to pay a heavy fine). if that's the case then he wouldn't have the right to appointed counsel. but then the judge sentenced him to jail time. that feels like a constitutional violation. but i dunno.

like he was dumping the trash at 5am, but he was naked, masturbating and had ecstasy on him
-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

Bubba McTriple Kay advising the judge to give this man 30 days is some bullshit. Sandy Springs court system is privatized? the fuck ? Fools coming up with neo jim crow shit for new excuses to put black folks in jail.
1k fines arent doing any good then raise that shit to 10k, but they won't do that shit because their white friends own the waste management company..
31. "not that what you state isn't true...it is.. BUT...what's unique and per..." In response to Reply # 30
about this case is the Privatization angle of it... I'm hoping that it gets as much attention about that as it does the absurdity and racial angle of it. I still feel the racial aspect is the smallest and least important/effective angle to approach it from though...
