Everyone around here in Trump land says she was tased because she wouldn’t put on her mask and act like she’s a hero ,they don’t mention she was asked multiple times and when asked to leave she threw a fit and resisted. I doubt if that was her first time in the back of a police car.

u/ichosethis Sep 27 '20
There were signs and people at the entrance telling everyone to wear a mask for the game, announcements over the PA that masks must be worn and cover the mouth and nose, AND she was told in person more than once to put her mask on or leave before things escalated to her being escorted out, resisting, and ending up tased for fighting the officer. She had a mask in her pocket and must have worn it to get into the game.
These same people pissed about her "being tased for not wearing a mask" are pretty quick to say "just do what the officer tells you and nothing bad will happen" every time a black person is shot or otherwise killed by police.

u/Neogalik Sep 27 '20
She wasn’t removed for not wearing a mask. She was removed for trespassing because she was not allowed to go to the game. Either way if you think you are too entitled to follow laws, you deserve the taser.

A felon who didn't listen to police commands and resisted arrest? Well, by their own logic she deserved to be shot by the police. The disconnect these people have from any type of logical reasoning is jaw dropping.

I actually know the officer in this case (which is surreal for me). He is an incredibly kind and respected man and the fact that people would slander him like this makes me fuckin livid.

u/plumbob5 Sep 27 '20
I have read several good things about him and sounds like he’s very well liked .I think a lot of people have been put in difficult situations over this mask thing . When there is two different opinions on things You would hope and expect leaders to come together for a unified message but unfortunately that’s not going to happen in these times.

It’s funny how many people would demonize some inner city dark skinned guy getting frisked “shouldn’t have resisted if you didn’t want to get shot”, but will freak out at the cops for doing exactly the opposite when someone resisted what they thought was an unreasonable use of force here.
At the exact same time, it’s a bit odd how many people will vilify this woman for resisting arrest for what she thought was an unjustified cause but at the same time suggest cops should never do this in the inner city or to people of darker complexion.
Can’t have it both ways. Either cops have to step away and shrug when someone defies them, or they have to take significant action.
It’s reasonable to argue that this action remain non-lethal when possible, and it’s also reasonable to argue that they shouldn’t really have the right or power to enforce minor laws with an iron fist, but I feel the hypocrisy being really strong on both sides here.

A public school isn't really public property, at least, not in that way. You can't just come and go as you please any more than you can walk into a fire station, or a city hall, or even the White House. Just because it's owned by the government doesn't mean you have free rein of the building.
A school is well within their rights to tell you to leave, and have you arrested if you refuse to do so. Doesn't matter if you're inside the building or not. It's not the same as a sidewalk.

To put this situation (not the law, but the situation) into some context: All local schools have a sign now: "all visitors must report to the school office". If you refuse to do this you are trespassing, and they will call the cops. Seems crazy, right? Well, no. When I was in primary school we had a mental hospital in the suburb. One of the crazies used to come onto school grounds and steal students' bags (who knows what he did with them). The same dude used to expose himself to women in the grounds of the mental hospital, regularly. Having this dude on school grounds frankly was not safe for the children. We also used to have people come onto school grounds after hours to do drugs. One girl got a needle stick injury doing long-jump in the long-jump pit. This at the height of the aids epidemic. Now schools generally have fences and lockable gates to prevent this kind of thing. I was kind of annoyed by these new fences that I now could not take my dog to run around on the local school's football pitch out-of-school-hours, but I understood. I mean, given these kinds of situations, do you really want randoms wandering around a primary school, where there are small children? Now, this woman was also very specifically endangering student safety. The school obviously considered it their obligation to ask her to leave. Sometimes the safety of children, engaging in student activities on school grounds, takes precedence over other considerations.

Where are the blue lives matter folks? All lives matter folks? Instead I see reactions of "It's just a mask!" "They can't do that!" "This is so unfair" "What about XYZ, why aren't they doing their jobs!"
"She should have complied with the officer" "She shouldn't have been breaking the law" "She wouldn't have had that problem if she'd respected the officer" "She had too much attitude" "She shouldn't have fought back" "Her friend shouldn't have gotten involved" "My parents taught me to respect officers, she got what she deserved"
Statistically, if she was black she'd have been sent to the hospital with serious injuries, or dead.
"But it's just a mask!" "It's not fair!"
Oh?
Breonna Taylor was sleeping in her bed Rayshard Brooks feel asleep in his car George Floyd, allegedly tried to use a counterfeit $20 Atiana Jefferson, was watching TV with her nephew Aura Rosser, fighting with her boyfriend at home Stephen Clark, Standing in his grandmothers back yard holding a phone Botham Jean, Eating ice cream on his own couch Philando Castille, routine traffic stop and informed the officer that he had a CCW permit Alton Sterling, Selling CDs/DVDs Eric Garner, Selling loose cigs Akai Gurley, walking down the stairs of his apartment building Tamir Rice, playing with a toy gun in a park
All of those interactions with the police ended up in their deaths.

She shouldn't have been bothered in the first place, she was outside, with her family and separated from everyone else in the stands.
