If a white football player smacked the backside of a black officer, the outcome would be very different.
Odell presumed he could get away with it, and have everybody just laugh it off. Nowadays, even Black Privilege has it’s limits.
This reminds me of the Urban Thugs who were throwing buckets of water or spraying Cops with garden hoses last summer. When they show disrespect, it’s supposed to be seen as a “joke”, not an actual offense.
I don't think this is about race. I think it's about a stupid cop.
Yes, OBjr is a jerk, but he is an LSU alum and the LSU team just won the National Championship (darn!). But the cop is a bigger jerk for not knowing when to look the other way.
