Jail time for chalk isn’t tyranny?

How dare those cops treat her like any other normal person. Don't they know how special she is? They had the nerve to keep her in a holding cell for 5 hours. She whines about being roughly handcuffed. That means the cops didn't put velvet around the cuffs before putting them on her. What a douchebag.

If you mess with the cops you can do 5 hours or cooperate and get out in 1.

Or get murdered by a saracen in blue for being a woman not covered head to toe in garbage bags.

Oh, come on! She was held for 5 hours. "Do the crime, Do the time".

freeandfreezing :" Who carries pink chalk with them when they are going out to "run a few essential errands"?

Exactly true !
She felt entitled because ..
Then went back to see her handiwork, and saw it was smudged almost to oblivion.
The article demonstrates that she was just grandstanding
and still feels entitled at least to the notoriety that she was inconvenienced.

What crime is there when it can be erased with some water?

You just don’t get it. You are imposing a cost on someone, no matter how small. Also, chalk comes off of concrete with a scrub brush and water. Not so for painted surfaces. Also, she was only in jail for 5 hours. How about she be the one who is required to restore the surface to its original state? That seems fair.

If she had written “Thanks a lot, China” she’d have been just as arrested.
