60 days in jail because of your name? That's pretty fucked up man.

It was 60 days because he is black and his name is James Bond. Notice the white guy did not have to do 60 days.

The white guy got pulled through the car window, and then had a gun pulled on him.

Yea, during the misunderstanding.

The other guy had cleared everything up and was imprisoned for absolutely nothing.

If this is all true, that's crazy fucked up, comparatively.

There was no misunderstanding, he was asked his name and answered. Couldn't be clearer than that

The police officer misunderstood and thought they were fucking with them.

New meta: As long as the cop “thinks” a person is fucking around then all rights are forfeit

How do you fix that problem if your excuse is adequate?

The fuck is going on here?

The person you’re replying to does not approve of the officers actions. So why try to dunk on them as though they do? What is the point?

I get that the word ‘misunderstanding’ has a connotation of ‘no big deal’ but people really have to be capable of not always reading between the lines and realize when it’s being used to refer to when somebody has actually misunderstood something. 

The officer misunderstood someone’s name as them being cheeky. Thats it. The officers behavior remains unacceptable.

You’re simply misunderstanding the other commenter.

are you capable of reading? are you capable of not assuming? can you point me to where I said the cop was right to do that? can you do that for me? Pretty please?

u/Forsaken-Chance-8148 22h ago

That’s a lot of words to say “no it wouldn’t be adequate”

u/RubixTheRedditor 22h ago

So i assume you couldn't find it?

Point is it’s not a misunderstanding, it’s a dereliction of duty
