This stuff has always been a problem, but people ignored it because it didn't happen to their demographics often.

With Flock doing it to vehicles instead of cops to people, suddenly people who didn't even support BLM are going to act like this treatment is unheard of.

Buddy...

If I said people went to the world cup, would you think that meant ever person went to the World Cup?

Like, I understand what you thought it meant, and your reply, I'm just curious how you misunderstood it so badly

Pal, me and my friends are a different type of folks. We didn't go to the world cup. We didn't get a $20 hotdog.
We rented out a small bar to watch it
and we tipped

Well

How the fuck can they keep her locked up for 13 days!? Didn't she have a right to legal council who on her bond hearing ger her released? Can she now sue the city into fucking bankruptcy?

I've dated a couple defense attorneys and they all had horror stories. Our legal system is a cruel joke.

they sometimes "forget" that the jailed is there too.
