If I got lippy I shouldnt have to worry about getting a beat down & possible killed by the thug scumbag cop should I?
I guess there is a good point - if you did something bad enough to get 'cuffed and arrested, why would you even contemplate getting "lippy"? If you were in the wrong, you shut up and take the appropriate punishment I guess.
Again, it's the attitude that got her smacked. Granted, she shouldn't have been knocked around in any case.
But there is such a "I can do what I want - who are you to tell me I can't" attitude in this country in the last 10 years or so....just like all the people who bought homes they couldn't afford and are now begging Obama to help them. It is never THER FAULT for what they do - and it shows up in people's attitudes.
Yea, you can't piss in a public alley. It's a law that pretty much makes sense, doesn't it? And I really doubt that you were handcuffed and taken to jail for that - but if you were, I guess it is understandable.
You knew you were breaking the law, and decided to risk it. No big deal - but you got caught.
Then man up to the consequences.
But not all of us break the law - at least in severe enough ways that we'll be handcuffed and transported in the paddy wagon.
This young lady was handcuffed and taken into custody. I doubt it was for jaywalking - hence my comment that she is likely no angel.
