Балтиморская полиция

[cema]

Интересно, какое у дела будет продолжение.

У меня за одиннадцать с половиной лет жизни в Мэриленде был только один случай непрофессионального (невежливого, не более того) отношения ко мне со стороны полицейского. Ничего подобного описанному, конечно.

Впрочем, в Балтиморе я бывал довольно редко.

Update. Версия другой стороны.

i hope these two sue the stupid ass who arrested them.

well, the only defence the police officer should have whould go something lie this - "two white kids in this section of baltimore? by arresting them i actually saved their lives"...

Saved their life and put them to jail for 8 hours?
BTW, here is the other side of the story

about saving their lives - that was said kinda tongue in cheek.

:)

there is always another side to any story.

:) still putting two obviously upset people in jail for grabbing pen - a bit too much, wouldn't you say?

The was one aspect in the original story which did not ring true.

The couple asks for directions, get fined for running stop sign instead, and their reaction is

"It wasn't a big deal. We'll pay the stop sign violation, but can we have directions?"

???? Nah

Getting slapped with a ticket I would have forgotten about being lost in second

Нельзя ли пояснить расовый аспект инцидента? Район, в котором это все произошло, и полицейский - черный, белый?

K сожалению, я очень бегло всё это посмотрел, и не помню деталей. Кажется, чёрный район.
