N/S Tyreek Hill arrested for traffic violation by stadium in Miami on gameday (Hill played) [Reckless driving & seatbelt charges dismissed] (1 Viewer)

I initially read the title as "Taysom Hill arrested...." and I almost spilled my drink.

Much like your avi, when pigs fly! This dude here tho is not very low profile

I DO believe the vast majority of cops are not racist but the others create that mistrust.

I’ll probably tap out soon bc I might get in trouble if I dig too deep
But I would add that the social/ethical makeup of individual police is not the issue
It’s a structural issue
The AA and many other ‘of color’ communities being overpoliced (which the data overwhelmingly acknowledges) is not bc cowboy cops feel froggy all the time, it’s bc the system was designed to do exactly what it’s doing
And until the system changes, even ‘good’ cops will be influenced to make bad choices

Hill is a criminal and a punk.

Telling someone to roll down their window isn't a lawful command. Also demanding someone get out of their car depends on jurisdiction. Some areas and under certain circumstances it's lawful and others it isn't. People have got to lose this idea that when a public servant tells you to do something, with attitude, it's automatically a lawful command and you must comply. People have good and lawful reason to not want to roll down their windows or exit their vehicles when dealing with police goons who have no desire whatsoever to use their de-escalation training. Your license and registration can be shown on the window and that's all they need.

Not with the dark tint his windows had. The officers wouldn't know if he was going for a weapon I don't blame them one bit for ordering him to lowering the window

Multi-millionaire, ultra privileged, domestic abusing, child abusing, deadbeat dad, criminal thug and his multi-millionaire, ultra privileged agent calling for working class cop to be fired and stripped of his livelihood is peak 2024.

Cop may have been right, may have been wrong, but Reek should leave all that to his lawyers, shut his mouth and play football. Not a good look.

All I see while I read this is some backwoods hill billy droppin' n bombs while typing.

Bc you and I can expect a quid pro quo - do this thing and everything will go smoothly
I hope you understand that a black man has a reasonable suspicion that even when they ‘comply’ the situation might not deescalate
Sometimes quite the opposite

So he chose to not comply at all?!?! Why not try and take your chances?

C'mon man. Is that even a RESONABLE fear in that specific stop? The police have his ID, they KNOW who he is, where he's employed, Hill told them to "just give me my tickect...I'm going to be late" and they KNOW his employer because they are specifically there to serve his employer!

Is it reasonable for the Police to believe that Tyreek Hill poses any danger to them on The Dolphins OPENNING DAY!

Spoken like a cop.

Never been in the situation, but if I’m imagining, one of the advantages of staying in the car is that it’s harder to get hit, choked and blindsided if you’re sitting in a car seat

Long criminal record. Never feel an ounce of sympathy when a criminal disobeys the police. Oh no, he got detained. Who cares?

That's way more racist than anything you quoted. Sorry, not sorry that I don't care about criminals who blatantly disobey the cops.

I care when cops needlessly escalates a situation. It could have been me. It's really that simple. Hill didn't do himself any favors, but the cops can and should be better than that. Nothing about that stop was professional. If you want to make excuses for bad cops, that's your prerogative.

 

[DaveXA]

Which of these statements do you disagree with? That Hill is a criminal, or a punk?

What Hill is is irrelevant to my point. I'm talking about presumptuous cops here.

I get that, but comply as in roll the windows all the way down, like officer requested. Personally, if my windows are tinted to that magnitude, I’d have the windows all the way down first, before they even ask me, so they don’t think I’m a threat.
