Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire The Assassination of Sandra Bland

It don't matter to these fugtards {that she's dead} because she was poor, black and smoked pot.

And also because she didn't signal a lane change. And 'that's' big time against the law.

Okay then, I'm trying to learn a little bit about the police business here. Why was he going to ask her to step out over a turn signal violation? According to him she was going to get a warning until she screwed up. I can't figure out why he didn't just give her the warning and be on his way. Up until the point of the cigarette, she certainly didn't kiss his ass but also was not overly bitchy from where I sit. I get that he has the right to ask her to get out, just not clear on why he would have at that point, assuming the cig was the precursor and not what set him off.

Oh yeah, how could I forget that heinous crime ?

Worthy of a beatdown for sure. The fact that she was a black activist against police brutality and died in custody was just a coincidence I'm sure. Oh I'm sorry, I meant suicide.

There's a difference in correlation and causation. But I'm not surprised that you don't get it.

I'm not surprised you'd rather attack my character than address the obvious. She was in police custody, was a black activist against police brutality, and is now dead.

What an amazing coincidence that she committed suicide. Not saying it couldn't be just an amazing coincidence, but it is very, very suspect.

It is quite apparent the over-zealous bully cop abused his authority. It is also quite apparent the cop escalated the non-threatening situation over her lit cigarette. She was a routine, non-threatening traffic stop, but because she didn't kiss his pansy azz, he felt she was challenging his authority. Then, d I c k h e a d cop decided he would show her who would and could be the bigger azz hole.

Makes one wonder where they are finding these recruits (bottom of the cesspool maybe). To defend his behavior and actions is almost as questionable as the bully's despicable behavior. There was no good reason to use excessive force or to maliciously arrest that woman, except the bully cop's male chauvinistic feelers got hurt, and he wanted to "hurt" her, either by roughing her up physically, or arresting her, or by inconveniencing her by putting her in jail, or a combination of all....yeah, Mr. Tough Guy was going to "show her". He thought he was some touch mother-f a w k e r.

His use of excessive force with a female was unjustified, and his threat to use his taser to "light her up" was equally abusive. He had no compassion when she told him she had epilepsy. What kind of a professional public servant except a total POS d I c k h e a d bully would respond "good" when told of her epileptic medical condition ?

Will he be reprimanded or indicted for excessive use of force or held accountable for his misconduct? Probably not....

Alarming, and particularly so for women. This woman wasn't even safe and protected in the presence of a Man-in-Blue. I don't think we've heard the last about this case... Thank goodness for technology....pretty pathetic when the police need policing.

Rest in peace, Sandra Bland.

How can you be poor and still afford pot?

Pot is illegal.

Seems regardless of color she was making some really stupid choices in life and eventually stupid choices often kill you. Now or later.

Seems like it was inevitable.

Thank GOD we can blame it possibly on someone other than herself.

So much for someone of whatever color she was, and I don't have a clue what color she was becuase I hadn't watched TV for probably close to 2 weeks, thankfully.

From what I read and those defending her I have to assume she was supposedly an American, of african descent possibly. Which makes no never mind.

Stupid games, stupid prizes as they say.

Can sure guarantee a smarter person would be alive, and that anyone that hangs themselves in jail, has serious mental issues, that likely will be blamed on something/one other than herself. Not that she could help the mental on her own, but still her own call.

Come to think of it, I must be as dumb as others.

I think I"ve had 2 speeding tickets at the age of 50.

Have been pulled over a few other times.

Have never been asked to get out. Have obviously never given reason for such.

Have been polite, and followed instructions.

Hmm, I've never been put in jail. Or asked to get out, even when in the wrong of speeding, running a red light and so on.

Most likely because cops don't ask white males not smoking pot or being a smartass to get out. But I could be wrong.

LOL

Keep your mouth shut, don't question The Man, don't even answer his baiting questions. Stay alive. Sick.


If someone treated your wife like this, and you saw the video, would you be of the same view that she got what she had coming?

Not directed at you Jeff, but I bet there's a bunch of hypocrites here that would be hiring attorneys and screaming bloody murder if this were their kin or spouse. But they would never admit it.

If my kin acted like a tool and got thrown in jail I'd react the same way her kin did.....I'd leave her there.

Is it very, very suspect that a woman who suffered from depression, with a history of recent suicide attempts, whose wrists were scarred from self mutilation....who had been abandoned by her family and left to sit in jail..... Would commit suicide? Is that suspect?

So the cop wasn't the only person in town who didn't like her.

You should watch the video. Neither pot, mental illness, nor race, nor her being an activist was part of the equation at the time of the arrest. The cop was a powder keg looking for a spark and the woman provided it. The woman was not the least bit interested in making things easier on herself. Classic example of two wrongs not making a right or more succinctly, two dumb asses in a hole and neither would stop digging. Bland already got her stupid prize and I expect the officer's will be forthcoming.

Black activist against police brutality arrested for mouthing off. Died while in custody. I know, what's not to love right?

She wouldn't have died in jail, certainly.

Given her past attempts, etc., who knows.
