At first glance this article is appalling to those reading or hearing it for the first. However to make a true unbiased judgment against one party, you have to know the circumstances surrounding the events that happened. The police officer could have seen something that he wanted to take care of and did not politely ask the three women to move. Sometimes people just want attention so they make a story out of nothing. Also how likely is it that the police officer knew that they were talking about funeral plans for their mutual friend? I do not know about you but I do not listen to conversations between the people walking in front of me on the way to class or any where else I happen to be going. People should get both sides of the story before making an opinion to which side they will take. If the police officer was wrong in his arresting, he will be correctly punished by the police force for his actions, however if he did have a right, the general public will never hear that the woman was wrong. If the tables were turned though, the public will hear about how the police was so prejudice and wrong in their actions and there will definitely be a court case to follow.
However, if this story is true and really did happen the way that these women portrayed it, it was wrong of the police officer. Discrimination of black, white, man, or woman needs to stop. Sometimes people do commit acts against other people just because of their sex or race. However, if you do not let it get to you or you stop looking for them, you will not be so offended all the time. People have to stop looking for arguments sometimes and just need to let things not bother them so much.
That's all for now!
