I know a woman whose son did time for possession or marijuana after a traffic stop. He was in college at the time. This kid is black, he had a joint in his pocket. The owner of the car (a white kid) had an ounce of weed in his trunk, no jail time.
college. joint in your pocket. driving. = stupid
both stupid if you ask me, but curious who was driving and were the laws about the drugs being on your person at the time? that could have had something to do with it, even tho stories like that are totally not uncommon at all.
however, go drive around newark as a white person at night, be prepared to be stopped and your car searched. it’s the reverse of racial profiling there. well it is just racial profiling as they think any white person is there buying drugs. very very bad but unfortunately it happens and if you have any warrant out on your or any driving violation youre going to jail. (know many MANY people this has happened to) happens also in new brunswick, camden outside of philly, etc…
we live in a fucked up society where we all fucked each other up. it started in the 1940’s/50’s/ and 60’s where too many old school people thought they were holier and better than everyone else and too many young people saw what was about to come. culture clash. fast forward to 2010, hardly any difference if you ask me, which is sad.
Randi – if you look you can tell the bulldozer was stuck and was being towed out by the other truck so the driver of the bull dozer was trying to get out but obviously was slipping into the parked car – am sure he wasn’t doing it on purpose. Am glad it got taped though so the driver of that car can get $$ from the city to fix it!
Rob, she became very frightened when I was hired. Me. It sort of unhinged her. She had been berating traders and sales people in the most amazing ways (i.e. calling a Jewish guy a 7th Avenue Heb). It went on and on. Then I show up. She imagined that she was being replaced. I needed the job even though I heard she was a nut. She then would periodically excoriate people, including one guy who she dressed down complete with f bombs on the trading floor, which amazingly didn’t look too kindly on these things. Then she got on the radar of Human Resources. Then she started “trailing” me, checking on my movements with security, checking on my ins and out, time stamping my conversations with notes (all found later). Finally, when she was convinced she was going to be fired, she concocted a sexual harrassment suit (one of the harassers was an openly gay man), hurting very badly one very senior executive who ocassionally used bad judgement in his jokes but who would NEVER do the things she accused him of. The reason for all of this? A person cannot be fired if they have claimed sexual harrassment until that was fully investigated. In the end, they paid her off to go away. No handcuffs. Just security guards. She couldn’t get a job on Wall Street if she tried. And she did.
im thinking about just letting my dog hop out the bedroom window into the alleyway. call me spoiled, i dont care, but dog walkers are a god send. my dog haaaaaaaaaaaates pooping in the snow. any sounds sets him off into a manic frenzy. the smells, the icky ice, the plow scraping on the street, the salt which irritates his paddies 🙁 and then of course seeing all the yellow designs all over makes him want to be an artist too!
Airports are still bedlam with five to eight hour delays and incoming planes waiting on tarmac for same period of time. A Cathay Pacific flight from Vancouver landed at around 2AM and is still on the tarmac.
Most criminals in jail are for drugs and the Rockefeller laws in NY sent hundreds of people to jail. While some did deserve jail time, some did not. I know a woman whose son did time for possession or marijuana after a traffic stop. He was in college at the time. This kid is black, he had a joint in his pocket. The owner of the car (a white kid) had an ounce of weed in his trunk, no jail time.

The rolling commentary by the moron taking the video puts him at about the same intellectual level as the DOS workers.
