As stated before, it's a class C misdemeanor. Therefore it does require producing an ID. By law she could have been hauled downtown. Guess you didn't read the whole thread there Captain Krunch...
Because the sidewalks are uneven and I’ve tripped on them.
No law against walking in the road.
The cops sopped her because some silly scared white idiot called in.
It would be more accurate to say that she was an uppity black woman who, because she is educated and has a good paying job(probably because of quotas), was attempting to live in an upper middle class neighborhood in North Dallas(Corinth).
She thought that she was entitled to more than a Negro Mammy living in the hoods of South Dallas.
Don't forget: the two most dangerous things in the world are a black person with an education and a Mexican with a driver's license.
I walk in a semi-rural area and have been stopped because I use a walking stick for balance.
I have also been asked for my ID.
It is not unusual and I am white. I just don’t make an issue of being combative and spoiling for a fight.
I walk every day, too. I always walk on the side to face oncoming traffic, and on the sidewalk whenever there is one. I never flop my arms like a wounded goose.
The cops couldn't see what her race was before they stopped her. They were polite and friendly. She was nothing but a race pimp.
Look.. walking in the middle of the road waving your hands when you got a perfectly good sidewalk right next to you for pedestrian traffic .. you do look like the crazy homeless person... at the very least, a cop is probably going to stop you to make sure you’re OK
cops always ask for ID
that’s just stupid.... Sidewalk are for pedestrian traffic... roads are for vehicle traffic.... you do not the mix the two if they’re available for simple safety reasons...
I’m sorry if I’m driving and there’s some idiot walking in the middle of road I’m going to get pissed off..
or do you think that a pedestrian should have the right away and walk in the middle of the road we’re not talking crossing the road we’re talking walking in the middle of road blocking traffic
and it was not white person being scared of a black person... it was a guy in a pickup truck legally trying to drive down the road ...that was she was blocking... and couldn’t even see her color from behind
that’s the problem with this there’s an assumption of bigotry from the get go by her and by you when really she being treated like any other person for acting like an idiot and being a pain in the ass for everyone else around her
Ok. Whatever.
Texans are always right. It’s Paradise there.

Or J.C. Whitney used to have some that played a dozen or so tunes.
misdemeanor not enough to ask for ID?
There was every reason to stop her. They told her they stopped her for walking out in the street and on the wrong side to see oncoming traffic. A truck had to stop because she was impeding traffic. She’s so worried about her tax dollars, then use the safe sidewalks she paid for instead of acting like a crazy person flapping their arms down the middle of the street clueless to what’s going on around her. If she had been hit by a truck, she’d have sued the driver despite it being her fault.

The policemen asked her for ID when she started to establish the case that she was being stopped because she was black. They did this for the record in case she started to put forth the claim I suspect. Before that, they simply suggested she walk on the side of the road facing traffic.
I have. When I was walking home from school at night. No way the cop knew I was a kid at 6’2” 200lbs. Usually they gave me a ride the rest of the way as we lived out in the country.
MBAs are considered terminal degrees. There are very few DBAs awarded.
PhD no?
“Walking while black”?
I guess that means walking down the idle of the street like an idiot and then claiming racism when stopped by the police.
Dean of a university. Shows how dumbed down universities have become when they hire idiots like her.
