Ryan  Moats was rushing to the hospital to assist his dying mother in-law. Dallas police drew down on him and his family, then detained the family for fifteen minutes outside of the damn hospital while their moms passed away:

As a storm of outrage gathered over his department, Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle called a news conference Thursday to apologize for the behavior of an officer who detained a distressed family outside a hospital emergency room.Kunkle said Officer Robert Powell had been placed on paid administrative leave…… in connection with the incident last week, in which he stopped a family rushing to visit a dying mother, keeping them for 13 minutes to write a traffic ticket. The woman died before two of the family members were able to see her. “I am embarrassed and disappointed by the behavior of one of our police officers,” the chief told a packed audience of media outlets that included Inside Edition. “His behavior, in my opinion, did not exhibit the common sense, discretion, the compassion that we expect our officers to exhibit.” During the traffic stop, caught on the officer’s in-car camera, Powell berated the driver, 26-year-old NFL running back Ryan Moats, and threatened him with arrest for running a traffic light.

And people wonder how these “accidental shootings” keep happening? We smell a lawsuit. SMH

    Yep, everyone is in an outrage here in Dallas. I am just glad that Moats and his family didn’t act a fool, they kept their composure under extreme cir*****stances.

    Shout out to the hosptial security guard and nurse that came out of the hospital and tried to tell dumb***** Officer Powell that Moats’ mother-in-law was indeed dying and confirmed Moats’ story.

    And what’s with the cop sayin ” I could ruin your life” and takin out his gun.. They really need to give these cops psychological test before they give them a badge, or make them give atleast 20 minority personal references or something.

    Is it a big deal because he is a football player/have money? If it was a regular person, would it matter? Would it be on the news?

    Yeah, it was terrible what the officer did. Then at the end the officer was telling him that he should have explained to him what was going on, after he repeatedly did for 13 minutes, until a WHITE nurse came out and said that his mother-in-law is not doing well that the officer let him go.

    Even after another officer came and told him what was going on, he wouldn’t let the guy go. SMH

    Lol, sorry. Light morning…but this story is disturbing, but not surprising. They’re so over the top. I live near a police station, and cops go through this back ally that I take to go to work…so I stopped the car to mail a bill (the officer coming down sees me next the the box with mail in my hand) and shines the BRIGHTEST light known to man in my face and says, “is everything alright over here?”

    It will be when you take that light down. So extra.

    This video is reprehensible. And I believe race played a part in it. If the Moats family had been white, this verbal exchange would have NEVER HAPPEN. This officer treated them like ‘n*ggers.’ Anyone can dispute this opinion if they want, but I’m not being hypersensitive, playing the ‘race card’ (whatever that is), or rushing to the ‘obvious’ conclusion. People who say crap like this usually want to silence the other person from ‘attacking all white people.’ Bull. The officer could not see a family in distress, trying to reach the bedside of a love one about to p***** away. He was far too color obsess and doing what the police department taught him to do. And the fact this low life, subhuman, callous beast laughed with another colleague after this woman’s death is even more repulsive. If this was a black police officer doing this to a white family, yeah, he would have been on leave and likely without pay.

    Whatyousay

    3/27/09, 08:39:am

    The good thing about this is the guy never once said…’do you know who I am?’ This police officer completely out of line and for him to say he didn’t do anything wrong shows he’s an azz. He should be ashamed of himself. Once he saw they were going into a hospital ER, he should have just let it slide. Where is his sense of decency? If he doesn’t get it, he shouldn’t be working. Period.

    Powell has no common sense, no comp*****ion, so his badge should be gone. End of story.

    And in regards to Moats’ celebrity status, he never once said who he was nor was it his family that brought this matter to the media. It was released by the DPD (Dallas Police Dept).

    Hello Everyone…

    First of all, I am disappointed in the lack of posts for this topic, but I guess that just shows you what holds the interest of the m*****es. If it was the Chrianna incident my little scroll bar would be even smaller and everyone would have something to say.
    Anyway, this is sad, and this was definately racial but beyond that inhuman. Nothing would have mattered to the officer in this situation, he was irrational, even when it was explained by a nurse he didn’t get it. This just shows you that yes we have a Black president but really how far away from the plantation have we come? I am sick of having to shy away from the race issue because we have President Obama so the general consensus is that we should just “own up to” our part in the daily offenses and stereotypes of people of color. I am not sure about anyone else but, this is not like unemployment being Black is not a choice whether middle cl***** or at the poverty line. I freely admit it to myself and others I am proud of being Black, but I am just as proud of being a woman, a mother, a daughter, a big sister, and a lover. I digress…anyway, I am extremely sad that those last precious moments were stolen from Mr. Moats because of this. Shame on you Officer Powell maybe now you can learn about comp*****ion as you peruse the want ads.

    Good Morning Everyone….
    I was so happy this morning that mainstream media is covering this story and playing out the video. This was truly sad. It took them 13mins, a gun pull out, and yelling to not give him a ticket in the end. If they didn’t believe him in the first place as the whole family seemed to be crying in the car, maybe one officer could’ve walked him inside to verify while the other wrote the traffic violation. All they needed was his plates. When someone is on their death bed every second counts.

    I do commend Moats for not being like I am this or I am that. But me, when he said that he would tow the car cause he didn’t have the insurance, I would have been like go ahead, I will buy another one.

    What most shocked me was that another officer told what happened, which makes it better for the Moats family. But I am sure some shock jock radipo person will try to turn it around.

    I saw this story last night and I attempted to watch the video footage, and I had to stop viewing it because it was so infuriating. The officer pulled a gun on Moats’ wife as she darted out of the car in obvious distress to go to her dying mother, and Moats himself was unable to be with his mother-in-law because he was ticketed. Absolutely reprehensible.

    The officer should lose his job, and further, harsher repercussions should follow.

    You should know that Moats did not report this. And it was not reported right away. The other police officer who was there reported the incident a couple of days later. Because the other police officer felt that Powell shouldn’t get away with doing something like this. The father of Moat’s mother n law stated he has no hard feelings and wanted to move on, however they did want the police officer to be fired.

    I saw this on the news last night and was almost to tears. This is unbelievably sad and if the officer wasn’t so busy trying to pump his chest out he would have rationalized the situation and walked WITH the family into the hospital and waited until after all the goodbyes were exchanged between family members to address the traffic violation. This officer’s attitude was sickening and he will definitely reap what he sows. I hate to play the race card but for some reason I have this slight feeling that if it were a yt family it would not have played out like this….I could be wrong though…

    I’m still upset by my video. When my grandmother was critically ill my uncle rushed her to the hospital, running lights and stop signs. He had his hazard lights on also. A cop pulled him over and my uncle told him he was rushing my grandmother to the hospital. Immediately, the cop told my uncle to follow him and escorted them to the hospital. This was in Birmingham, Al and the cop was white! Birmingham, where we have always had to deal with racism. Had this cop in dallas tried to stop me from being with my dying mom, he would have had to shoot me in the back! He can mail me the damn ticket! Officer Robert Powell, KARMA BABY! Your actions will come back to get you.

    Below is a link to a radio interview Moats conducted about the incident. His mother-in-law was fighting breast cancer, and his family received a call around 1 a.m. from the hospital saying that she had flat-lined. The officer who trailed them to the hospital pointed his gun at Moats’ wife as soon as she darted out of the car to go to her mother. By the time Moats was able to go to the hospital room, his mother-in-law had already p*****ed. Terrible.

    _______

    The bottom line is that this officer did not have any sensitivity to the situation. Was he following protocol, Yes, I guess….but it could have been handled so much better and with ease….the officer intentionally made this situation difficult and I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t feel an ounce of guilt.

    3/27/09, 09:57:am

    The officer is a stone cold idiot and is morally wrong all day long. BUT in reality he didn’t do anything that is punishable or actionable. The man ran a light and he pulled him over. That’s his job. I have run into *****wipe cops like him before who are too firm on the whole “you broke the law you pay the price” thing. He deserves this shame and embarr*****ment, but I don’t see that anything can be done beyond that. At least his wife got to be at her mother’s side although if I understand correctly the deceased husband was outside with the cop and the football player when she p*****ed. So sad.

    Hey, girl, happy Friday to you.

    “I hate to play the race card but for some reason I have this slight feeling that if it were a yt family it would not have played out like this….I could be wrong though…”

    No, you’re not wrong — Most likely, the officer would have totally shift gears and would have escorted them into the hospital during such an emotional moment. This episode was totally dehumanizing, and the officer showed zero empathy. I can’t imagine how I would feel if my mother was moments away from death in a hospital, and I have a gun drawn on me for a traffic violation. How traumatic.

    Moats said during his interview that he was concerned for his wife’s safety because he was on the other side of the car and couldn’t go to her immediately while the officer’s gun was drawn. It reminds me of the scene in Crash when Terance Howard and Thandie Newton were pulled over by a cop, and the helplessness he felt was palpable.

    And no, I don’t think the Dallas officer, Robert Powell, feels an ounce of guilt. But he should lose his job immediately, and the Moats should sue.

    And what’s with the cop sayin ” I could ruin your life” and takin out his gun.. They really need to give these cops psychological test before they give them a badge, or make them give atleast 20 minority personal references or something.
    ———————————————-

    PM, I completely agree.

    These policemen come into the police force thinking that all minorities or people who live in urban neighborhoods are criminals.

    They clearly don’t have any respect for their fellowman or woman, but wonders why we don’t have any respect for them.

    Well, here’s a few reasons:

    (1) The police are not here to “protect and serve”.
    (2) The police constantly abuse their “power”.
    (3) The police do not care about catching “real” criminals unless a criminal does something to their own.
    (4) The police will not hesitate to frame an innocent individual for a crime, if it will keep them from getting into trouble or if it will help them to solve an unrelated case.

    There’s more, but these are the main issues that I notice have plagued the image of the police force.

    The police are our friends. Yes, it’s a flawed system, but it’s the only system we have and as such, we must stand by and support it. At the end of the day, Officer Powell is human, and will make human mistakes. The Moats used poor judgment by disobeying the speed laws, so in that context, Officer Powell’s actions were within proper protocol and conduct. It was a stressful situation around. Moats foolish wife should count her blessings for not getting shot by stupidly bolting out of the car before being instructed to.

    So you are telling me that this is how the story could have read:
    “Woman bolts out of car pulled over for traffic violation to run in hospital…..shot in back and killed”. (damn, looking at it, that’s believable…..and thats a shame)

    If anything her running into a HOSPITAL should have been the cue for Powell to check his attitude and use some damn common sense.

    I wonder if your mother was dying if you might break the speed limit or run a red light….
    You should have just stopped at “Yes, its a flawed system”.

    If he was a normal guy no one would hear about it or would care. But since he is a celebrity he should get a p***** for breaking the law????????? Sorry but that officer was doing his job. U have a violator that refused to stop and yall think he did something wrong? What that NFL player should have done was stop when the officer hit them lights and explained what happened. You don’t ignore and officer and keep driving thinking its ok just because someone is at the hospital, people die everyday. Now if he was rude then that is wrong but you can’t ignore the police when you ran a light and think its ok. Now watch everyone say O we headed to the hospital when they get pulled over, that Police Chief needs to grow a pair.

A lot of these crazies are flying under the radar. What killed me was when the nurse came out and told the cop the family was needed inside the hospital and the officer responded “Just one minute. I’m almost done”. Unbelievable. How would he behave if this were a white family? Exactly!! They better fire his heartless and soulless *****! And scary as it seems, he’s just one in a thousand out there.

    @ The Police Protective League…
    When the Chief of Police is outraged, that is a clear indication that Powell’s actions were not “within proper protocol and conduct”. He was told 3 times by the hospital staff that Mr. Moats were telling the truth. At that point, our police “friend” could have handled this situation in a more professional, moral manner. He let is pride and self gratification get in the way and did not like the fact that Moats raised his voice at him. Because of that he exhibited poor judgement and as a result is being reprimended. Whether it is paid leave or not, I am proud, for once, that DPD is finally taking some kind of responsibility and letting the public know that Powell’s actions were not warrented and unneccesary.

    Further evidence that we are living in a Po-leese State.

    70% of drug use – white folks
    80% of funding in “the war on drugs” – “urban” areas
    90% of people locked up for drug posession – Black and Latino

    Simple formula…..instill poverty, mis-education and basic hopelessness in a community (set the situtation), infultrate with drugs (provide the means), saturate the community with law enforcement and build more jails (the end). They now have control over the situation and the means to an end. Again, THEIR OWN numbers back it up.

    I’ve also worked with the police chief long enough to know that common sense is also very important thing to have when you are an officer. So many officers get written up and suspended for being *****holes at a time they didn’t need to be. This was a perfect example of a police going off on his power. He could have written him up the ticket and told him to have a nice day! how sad! If your own partner will turn you in, that means you were wrong!

    The woman died. Her daughter, mother and dad were right outside and did not get the chance to hold her hand or look in her eyes before she p*****ed on. I watched the entire video and did not see anything the family did that merited this treatment from the officer plain and simple. There is even another officer at the end of the tape laughing and stating he going to get something to eat. Strictly no EMPATHY here. My hat goes off to the driver that maintained his cool during the whole ordeal. Th errie part about this video is during the silence, you get to really realize how much the officer is purposely detaining this guy just for the hell of it. I sure hope this family has the guts to take the big “D” Dallas to court on this one. This is not about the money. This is strictly PRINCIPLE. This is a sad situation and really help to remind all that is it time for a change. Change just comes to some slower than others.

I agree with giving him a ticket for the stop sign, but going off for 16 minutes about a ticket when “THREE” people plus two other people told you his mother was about die and you still don’t get it! It was just commonsense! he didn’t want to let the guy go because it would have made him look stupid. The chief saw the tape, and he couldn’t believe how stupid someone in his own force could be.

    Context is everything. It isnt as if the man was driving away from the bank or the club like he was crazy. He drove to the hospital, car filled with members of his family. Common sense would have made this officer’s job a lot easier. He could have escorted them inside the hospital and got the information there.

    Its really in poor taste to put a value on someone else’s life. If that was your child in there, I am sure you would make an exception. Now stop being an *****hole and water my lawn.

I also think it disrespects this man’s family and any other person who has suffered at the hands of over zealous psychotic police. I’m not saying any of those dead cops deserved to be gunned down in cold blood. I am saying that some of us have no respect for those in grief. If I posted a list of names of unarmed people who have died at the hands of the criminal police or citizen criminals it would take over this entire thread.

I retired from teh Navy after 20 years. I work cause I want to not cause I have to. I am going to school to be a teacher. All my daughters are on the honor roll. Oh and the 2 step kids, I pay for their health insurance. I could have filed for divorce, but wanted to make sure they have what they need to help thier mother out.

    So please tell me how as a black woman I have failed my kids? So tell me how any of these folks on bossip have to worry about getting killed from the kids of a single parent?

    @jb_1030,

    Please dont act as if your life, and your life story is the norm for black females. It isnt.

    My advice, suck it up and go back to your husband, so long as he isnt abusive, cheating (and if he is perhaps you can consider how you may have contributed to it), on drugs, or a pyscho path, as wonderful of a woman as you are, your 6 children need him as much as they need you. This family isnt about you anymore its about them.

    @jb_1030,

    Please dont act as if your life, and your life story is the norm for black females. It isnt.

    My advice, suck it up and go back to your husband, so long as he isnt abusive, cheating (and if he is perhaps you can consider how you may have contributed to it), on drugs, or a pyscho path, as wonderful of a woman as you are, your 6 children need him as much as they need you. This family isnt about you anymore its about them.

    Just so I can set you straight,

    Husband was on drugs for 10 years BEFORE I met him, he was already in and out of his kids lives. When we met, he had been out of prison for 2 years after serving 8. He was making $60,000 legally as an electrician. He had gotten someone else pregnant right before we dated and decided that he needed the drugs to deal with her instead of trusting me. So like many black women, we try to save teh man. WE got married so that he could get the medical benefits I WAS ABLE TO GIVE HIM so he could get help. This coming and going and me trying to help lasted for over a year when I finally put me and my 3 kids first and said we out. His kids I took in to my heart and talked to thier mother who was struggling trying to raise 3 kids and I ADDED them to MY INSURANCE!!

    “This family isnt about you anymore its about them.”

    See even though you try to put me down, I will let you another thing. My life is about my kids. Again I make enough from the Retirement and Disability I get from the VA to sit on my ***** and not have to worry about ***** ever again, but I don’t. My kids come first always have and always will.

    So I see when someone steps to you correct you still want to berate them. I am not looking for applause cause as long as my kids all 6 of them are excelling that is applause enough for me.

    “Please dont act as if your life, and your life story is the norm for black females. It isnt.”

    I don’t kow where you are from or where you reside now, but the “NORM” for me is right here. My family did the same thing, kids first then you.

    So in all of this when you put your posts up about black women, you need to be specific about them. Oh and I am still married cause once I get divorced then his kids will lose htier insurance. And I don’t kow of anyone who is willing to pay in excess of $600 a month for insurance premiums.

    Not ALL cops are bad…Not ALL cops are good. It just so happens Powell misjudged and abused his power. All cops can not be judged on the actions of one police officer as so not all black folks can be judged on the actions of another black person. But what Officer Powell did was uncalled for and he should be fired. He clearly abused his power, POINT BLANK.

    Well if my memory serves me correctly I’ve done that before but it’s a moot point when the person you are debating with has no rhyme or reason. And, for the record I’ve seen ‘The Great Debaters’ and the difference between them and you is that they actually debated people with high intellect and the ability to understand a situation without judging it first. Debating with you is like going down a one-way street with a dead end, running a stop sign at the dead end, and arguing about why you ran the stop sign in the first place….don’t get it?…exactly, that’s my point, you make ABSOLUTELY no sense. Have a good day and keep on stirring that pot.

    3/27/09, 14:00:pm

    The officer is 100% right!!!. Moats is 100% wrong. When you see emergency lights you pull over. …PERIOD…If I was the cop I would of thought Moates was running. All Moates had to do was pull over and calmly explain the situation. The cop was the level headed one and I am sure he would of let Moats go if Moats had initially just pulled over. Once they were at the hospital Moats had the chance to comply and if he had of the officer would of let him go. The officer was level headed and calm. A police officer has to take control of the situation until they know what they are dealing with. Moats had the chance to explain quickly but he argued. The officer did his job. I guess this is why there are police unions. Cops get shot. Four officers died this week in Oakland. If they had initially approached the vehicle with weapons drawn they would be alive. And of course it would be labeled racism… But, I am sure their families would rather have their dad’s husbands,brothers,fathers,sons, uncles alive today and labeled racist then what they are now. They are DEAD!!! p.s the news media is the racist one here. Have you ever noticed that when a black cop does something to a black or a white person nothing comes of it. It is not plastered all over the news. But God forbid a white cop does something to a black person and the world falls apart. If Moats was white and the officer was black, this would not be in the national news media..Officer Robert Powell you would be welcomed addition to most any police force in the country. Hang in there!!!

    Police abuse their power EVERYDAY. If this routine ticket stop for failure to stop at a red light had happened to any regular member of our society, this situation may not have even hit the news. However, because Moats is an NFL player, it’s publicized. It’s unfortunate that the overzealous officer made them miss out on seeing their mother for the last time before she p*****ed away. Moats and his family handled themselves respectfully so there was no need for the officer to even draw his gun! He should be investigated and enjoy an extended administrative leave for that act alone! It doesn’t take 15 minutes to write a traffic ticket. That time could’ve been better spent if the officer had just written the ticket and left it on Moats’ windshield!

    You ever see that movie Lake View Terrace? Samuel L. Jacksons character was so *****ogues to the state of black females. He is all *****ed and lonely raising kids by himself and in his rage and bitterness he harr*****es this happy inter racial couple the whole time. Reminds me of black chicks.
    __________________________________________________
    In a world filled with violence… the only weapon is the truth!

    Hmmmm I’m curious to understand; but I have never seen the movie you speak of. “Black Chicks” sounds like your circle is filled with misguided inmature young women and I know they come in all shades and religions cause I use to be one of them. You actually believe your sick twisted method can break or improve someone, then you’re sadly mistaken.

    You fail to realize ‘Chicks’ are individuals and I think your slander of ALL Black Women and single parents is a ***** poor extreme example of deflection.

    I goggled the movie and the people who were being har*****ed was the Black Woman and her White Man. Are you in a interracial relationship being har*****ed by Black (WO)men? Are you saying that you’re a cop who abuses your authority? Kigali, it was a movie. I thought you were a professional an educated professional, why are you drawing conclusions based on a movie character? In the movie The Gl***** Shield Ice Cube played a cop *****igned to a all white precint, he uncovered all kinds of police misconduct so much so that the same cops tried to kill him…when he tried to do the right thing by reporting them. That movie reminds me of your train of thought. Blind sided and hypercritical. Don’t make up rules as you go along the same rules are suppose to apply to everyone not a chosen few, but we all know that isn’t true. What are you doing to help? I know you criticize. I tell you what, now that I think I know where you stand…I’ll worry more about my own life and happiness by NOT tuning into your misery. Surface dwellers bore me to tears booo whooo. On one end you blame black women for the descent of society then you blame blacks for all the crimes committed then you praise murderous cops who kill black people. then you speak of how unattractive black women are in your EYEZ then you praise certain celebrities. Your game is boooooooring and tired get a new act. Shouldn’t you be relaxed in your Ice Cream Castle?

    He did not argue with him he was calm. And he pulled them over at a hospital and even after they explained the officer kept at it. My friend was pulled over for speeding once and once he told the officer what was happening the officer gave him an escort to the hospital. It is about having comp*****ion. And he didn’t have to keep them there like that go in the hospital with them and if you want to then give him the ticket. I don’t think it was necessarily racism just an *****hole cop! As cop he should be able to discern situations! This was more a human relation thing that he just didn’t have. And the tape showed how he was talking to them totally uncllaed for. Yes 4 officers got shot the other day but cops can’t use that as an excuse to be *****holes! They were at the HOSPITAL for crying out loud. And even after the nurse came out he didn’t relent it even took another officer to get him to be cool. Now if his co-worker could *****ess the situation and handle it differently what the hell was his problem? And this has nothing to do with the 4 officers who were killed in CA! I feel this made the media b/c while he was arguing with a cop his family member died! That is what this is about! So it would have made news regardless of the race. This was just downright rong and you know it!

MY PARENTS HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE .. THEY WERE ESCORTED AND DROVE 100MPH TO GET TO A REAL EMERGENCY .. JUST CALL 911 BEFOREHAND AND LET THEM KNOW SO WHEN A COP PULLS YOU OVER, YOU CAN SAY YOU JUST CALLED THE POLICE TO LET THEM KNOW AND THEY CAN VERIFY LIKE THAT .. YOU MOST LIKELY WILL BE ISSUED A TICKET ANYWAY BUT AT LEAST YOU WILL GET TO YOUR DESTINATION SAFELY AND QUICKLY.

    Whatever happened to Protect and Serve…to police escorts? Or do they only escort strung out Pop stars (Britney Spears anyone) and leave the rest of us out in the dust…especially if the Creator blessed you with Melanin.
    That Police Officer needs to learn common sense. Let’s see..distraught people..dying Mother..in front of the emergency room. When the nurse and EMT came out…that should have been the end of it. But this *****er thought it was his civic duty to lecture a man on *****ing ATTITUDE as his relative lays upstairs DYING?
    Eat-A-*****ing-*****. They would have had to shoot me in the *****ing back to keep me away from my Mother. Sorry *****hole..but protocol doesn’t mean ***** in the face of death. I *****ing HATE YOU!!..and for me..hate is a VERY strong word.

    @ Sgt Pepper

    The cop was the calm one? Seriously? What video were you watching? He pulled his gun out? For what? Is that normal procedure? When your mother is dying, literally seconds from now, you have no time to waste to explain to a cop, who likes to feel powerful because he has a badge. Obviously the cop was NOT going to let it go. After all it took him more than 10 minutes to do what he wanted to do. Even after the nurse, the other officer, explained what was going on. The cop felt like he still needed to abuse his power then when he said, “just one moment.” I think you need to take a look at the video, and if you already done so, look at it again, STAT! And it is a shame to what happened to those cops in Oakland. But it is also sad the countless civilians that died at the hands of a police officer. I know, I had a friend who died in such a situation. Any time death is involved, it is a sad situation. The situation is what it is. The proof is in the pudding..How can anyone ever excuse the actions of this cop. Even the Police Chief could not. And again, Moats did not contact report this. It was the Plano Police Officer that was there who reported it. So that has to say something. Your fellow officer reported you…HELLO! I see something wrong with that.

    Whut?

    Does your ignorant ***** fail to realize Moats did not kill anyone? He was living a fulfilled life with a wife, a great career, making a legitimate living. You don’t know what you may do in an emergency situation when someone in your family is dying so please save the dramatics and eugenics bs for your david duke parade you ill mannered puta. That’s just like the humans to blame individuals who they’ve envied from the beginning of time. These racist and Tom’s want a race war don’t feed into them. Both of my parents were police officers and my brother often cleaned my parents guns one day he didn’t pay attention and the safety went off. I drove on side walks I drove through lights I drove with 12cops on my ***** to the hospital. I still dream about that ride and how if I had stopped for a second my brother would be dead I’m glad no one else was hurt because in those moments I only thought about getting him help and *****istance. I sometimes wonder if a world without guns would humanize the dead minds of mankind.

    @Get Over Yourself

    I wish you knew how to read. The reference from the movie was me being flippant but considering the reactions IR couples get here on Bossip for no reason it wasnt completely out of line to suggest that black females tend to react unreasonably hostile to IR couples.

    The plot in the movie was a single black father who lost his wife who he believed was having a relationship with a white man. Then here comes a black female moving in next door to him with her white boyfriend. It set him off. Thats why I made the reference. Black females see, or they percieve that THEIR black men are with white women and from there they become unreasonably hostile to IR couples. Its why I made the *****ogy.

    Anyway I dont blame blacks for all crimes just the crimes they do commit and the very real conclusions other people draw from it. If we are allowed to hate all cops because of what one idiot did then we cant be insulted when all black people are hated for the crimes a few of them commit.

    Show me where I praised muderous cops.

    I do blame the value system and the life decisions of many black females for the problems of the black community. If you pride yourself on being its CEO then you should be able to take responsibility for how it performs.

    Again are you talking all black females? I could care less about who anyone dates. Oh and my crackhead husband when he left and went to the streets he cheated with another crackhead who just happens to be black.

    Please stop generalizing black women. All of us are not what you claim we are.

    Let’s say that Kigali is a black person, sometimes I wonder if he really is a black man that was raised by a black single mother who did a horrible job and exposed him to some things in life that he is truly bitter over. That would make a whole lot of sense….other than that, there’s no justification for he/she/it’s comments other than insanity…

    I would agree with you on that point. But the post about the guys and wearing skinny jeans, “she” stated that her husband wouldn’t allow it so she wouldn’t either. Which again like you said makes no sense.

    You say ***** the police but you actually are *****ing yourselves by saying that!
    Yap them gumms all you want but you aren’t/haven’t/and won’t do anything to change what you say is so wrong with police departments today.

    Bottom line instead of getting off your ***** and becoming one of the good officers or becoming and advocate, what do you do?

    You say ***** the police!!!!!!!

    @c from stl,

    I dont have to be a drug addict or an alcoholic to see the effects of these things and decide its not good for people. I see the effects of most black children being born to single mothers and the results arent good. If they are good, you can always try to prove your case. Until then who I am is completely irrevelant. Dont use it as a way to distract or detract from my very well argued points.

    True, but that could all be a part of the game. Making false statements only to support his image of a black woman on this blog…I don’t know about the identity, but I do know that to be that negative all the time has to get old after so long…

    ++++++

    Very well argued points in your opinion. In my opinion your points hold no validity because you are not omnipotent to where you can see how every single black child and/or black single mother is living. You stereotype and when people make some of the hateful comments you make, all validity of the argument goes out the window and naturally causes people to wonder just who the person is behind the remarks because the remarks stop making any sense. It would be one thing if you actually intelligently made comments that had intellect and substance, but your comments are hurtful, incideous, mean, and unfounded….therefore no one will respect what you say because of how you say it. Since you are so smart you should already understand this….

    GET OVER YOURSELF

    Kigali its obvious that you’re a lunatic, who can cyber *****yze everyone else but your own bull***** delusions, ***** shut up.

    Despite what, or how you continuously portray the Black women in your life. The women I know are not the monsters you speak of your blood thirst to rage and rage about Black women is borderline obsessive filled with generalizations and false accusations. You don’t know every Black woman and it is apparent that you don’t know the true nature or psyche of them either. You can only know that about YOURSELF. Talking comes by nature, silence by wisdom and you lack that… You’re like a hatefilled fiend who’s life is apparently lacking in something, especially intellect. You sit around here like a make believe philosopher of bull***** propaganda when you don’t know ***** about anything but your personal experiences and what channel 7news spews to your simple ***** mind. You’re constantly contradicting yourself. I told you to get a new act better yet continue to quote those ignorant fools you enjoy following like a blind thirsty lower form of life. You’re a joke a pathetic joke you and a few others using your voices for nothing but mischief and confusion. Most fools find you entertaining, but real people read through your anger, misery, and envy.

    One-Time Pull Heat on NFL Player Rushing to Hospital Because of Mother Dying
    Posted by Bossip Staff

    Ryan Moats was rushing to the hospital to *****ist his dying mother in-law. Dallas police drew down on him and his family, then detained the family for fifteen minutes outside of the damn hospital while their moms p*****ed away:

    As a storm of outrage gathered over his department, Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle called a news conference Thursday to apologize for the behavior of an officer who detained a distressed family outside a hospital emergency room.Kunkle said Officer Robert Powell had been placed on paid administrative leave…… in connection with the incident last week, in which he stopped a family rushing to visit a dying mother, keeping them for 13 minutes to write a traffic ticket. The woman died before two of the family members were able to see her. “I am embarr*****ed and disappointed by the behavior of one of our police officers,” the chief told a packed audience of media outlets that included Inside Edition. “His behavior, in my opinion, did not exhibit the common sense, discretion, the comp*****ion that we expect our officers to exhibit.” During the traffic stop, caught on the officer’s in-car camera, Powell berated the driver, 26-year-old NFL running back Ryan Moats, and threatened him with arrest for running a traffic light.

    And people wonder how these “accidental shootings” keep happening? We smell a lawsuit. SMH

    Watch the actual video of the incident here.

    DAMN! I just saw the video…the cop chased them ALL the way into the hospital…

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:06 am OneStep

    Yep, everyone is in an outrage here in Dallas. I am just glad that Moats and his family didn’t act a fool, they kept their composure under extreme cir*****stances.

    Shout out to the hosptial security guard and nurse that came out of the hospital and tried to tell dumb***** Officer Powell that Moats’ mother-in-law was indeed dying and confirmed Moats’ story.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:23 am Re

    I remember this story where the officer pretty much harr*****ed the crap out of a white man who was anxious to get his wife to the hospital because she was in labor…and even asked what all that luggage in the back seat was for (her belongings and change of clothes for when she leaves the hospital)…

    smh.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:24 am Colonel Stinkmeaner

    Is it a big deal because he is a football player/have money? If it was a regular person, would it matter? Would it be on the news?

    Yeah, it was terrible what the officer did. Then at the end the officer was telling him that he should have explained to him what was going on, after he repeatedly did for 13 minutes, until a WHITE nurse came out and said that his mother-in-law is not doing well that the officer let him go.

    Even after another officer came and told him what was going on, he wouldn’t let the guy go. SMH

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:33 am Re

    @Colonel Stinkmeaner

    Lol, sorry. Light morning…but this story is disturbing, but not surprising. They’re so over the top. I live near a police station, and cops go through this back ally that I take to go to work…so I stopped the car to mail a bill (the officer coming down sees me next the the box with mail in my hand) and shines the BRIGHTEST light known to man in my face and says, “is everything alright over here?”

    It will be when you take that light down. So extra.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:36 am Kelly

    This video is reprehensible. And I believe race played a part in it. If the Moats family had been white, this verbal exchange would have NEVER HAPPEN. This officer treated them like ‘n*ggers.’ Anyone can dispute this opinion if they want, but I’m not being hypersensitive, playing the ‘race card’ (whatever that is), or rushing to the ‘obvious’ conclusion. People who say crap like this usually want to silence the other person from ‘attacking all white people.’ Bull. The officer could not see a family in distress, trying to reach the bedside of a love one about to p***** away. He was far too color obsess and doing what the police department taught him to do. And the fact this low life, subhuman, callous beast laughed with another colleague after this woman’s death is even more repulsive. If this was a black police officer doing this to a white family, yeah, he would have been on leave and likely without pay.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:39 am Whatyousay

    The good thing about this is the guy never once said…’do you know who I am?’ This police officer completely out of line and for him to say he didn’t do anything wrong shows he’s an azz. He should be ashamed of himself. Once he saw they were going into a hospital ER, he should have just let it slide. Where is his sense of decency? If he doesn’t get it, he shouldn’t be working. Period.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:40 am * I am Royalty *

    With the video evidence, should this cop really be on paid leave? This was just another senseless act of a cop letting that badge get to his head…. He should not be @ home sitting on his ***** getting paid for being and insensitive *****hole…

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:41 am * I am Royalty *

    *** an insensitive *****hole

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:45 am OneStep

    Exactly, whatyousay.

    Powell has no common sense, no comp*****ion, so his badge should be gone. End of story.

    And in regards to Moats’ celebrity status, he never once said who he was nor was it his family that brought this matter to the media. It was released by the DPD (Dallas Police Dept).

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:46 am OneStep

    I Am Royalty,

    They have to put him on paid leave until they have completed their investigation. It is common police procedure.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:47 am BE

    This is a shame…driving while black is an offense in officers minds (of all races). They routinely do this because everyone keeps acting like it is not a problem and refuse to face the problem.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:48 am carla

    PAID LEAVE!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!! I GUESS IT IS JUSTICE AND JUST US!!! MY PRAYERS THE FAMILY! I PRAY THAT THEY HAVE PERFECT PEACE THAT P*****ES ALL UNDERSTANDING AT THIS TIME OF BEREVEMENT

    @Re

    That’s F–ked up….but I ain’t stopping for they *****es….I’m use to them pulling guns on me anyway so it will be like a monthly routine….I figured when I make it to the hospital, I’ll just jump out the car and lay face down with my hands on my head….fingers interlocked….and when he see’s my wife screaming and displaying labor pains he’ll know w*****up….

    Hello Everyone…

    First of all, I am disappointed in the lack of posts for this topic, but I guess that just shows you what holds the interest of the m*****es. If it was the Chrianna incident my little scroll bar would be even smaller and everyone would have something to say.
    Anyway, this is sad, and this was definately racial but beyond that inhuman. Nothing would have mattered to the officer in this situation, he was irrational, even when it was explained by a nurse he didn’t get it. This just shows you that yes we have a Black president but really how far away from the plantation have we come? I am sick of having to shy away from the race issue because we have President Obama so the general consensus is that we should just “own up to” our part in the daily offenses and stereotypes of people of color. I am not sure about anyone else but, this is not like unemployment being Black is not a choice whether middle cl***** or at the poverty line. I freely admit it to myself and others I am proud of being Black, but I am just as proud of being a woman, a mother, a daughter, a big sister, and a lover. I digress…anyway, I am extremely sad that those last precious moments were stolen from Mr. Moats because of this. Shame on you Officer Powell maybe now you can learn about comp*****ion as you peruse the want ads.

    Good Morning Everyone….
    I was so happy this morning that mainstream media is covering this story and playing out the video. This was truly sad. It took them 13mins, a gun pull out, and yelling to not give him a ticket in the end. If they didn’t believe him in the first place as the whole family seemed to be crying in the car, maybe one officer could’ve walked him inside to verify while the other wrote the traffic violation. All they needed was his plates. When someone is on their death bed every second counts.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:57 am VanTokyo

    If that were my mother or grandmother…I would do something out of the ordinary….like stalk the cop and torture him(setting his feet on fire,having gerbers to nibble in the crack of his ***** while tied up,OR SIMPLY sell my soul to Satan and cast a spell on him and make his life a LIVING HELL in which he shall never forget.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 8:57 am jb_1030 (Dreams she is Amber Rose so she can wear those shoes)

    I do commend Moats for not being like I am this or I am that. But me, when he said that he would tow the car cause he didn’t have the insurance, I would have been like go ahead, I will buy another one.

    What most shocked me was that another officer told what happened, which makes it better for the Moats family. But I am sure some shock jock radipo person will try to turn it around.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 9:00 am Sydney™

    I saw this story last night and I attempted to watch the video footage, and I had to stop viewing it because it was so infuriating. The officer pulled a gun on Moats’ wife as she darted out of the car in obvious distress to go to her dying mother, and Moats himself was unable to be with his mother-in-law because he was ticketed. Absolutely reprehensible.

    The officer should lose his job, and further, harsher repercussions should follow.

    And what’s with the cop sayin ” I could ruin your life” and takin out his gun.. They really need to give these cops psychological test before they give them a badge, or make them give atleast 20 minority personal references or something.

    I think the 20 minority personal references should be on the application.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 9:01 am bronzedasian

    @ kahmmillion (Extremely Glad its Friday)

    You should know that Moats did not report this. And it was not reported right away. The other police officer who was there reported the incident a couple of days later. Because the other police officer felt that Powell shouldn’t get away with doing something like this. The father of Moat’s mother n law stated he has no hard feelings and wanted to move on, however they did want the police officer to be fired.

    they have showed this video several times and it was a Plano cop that tried to intervene and the Dallas cop blow him off and there were two nurses , I could see the first one but when the large white one came out he still keep him for 5 minutes.

    I saw this on the news last night and was almost to tears. This is unbelievably sad and if the officer wasn’t so busy trying to pump his chest out he would have rationalized the situation and walked WITH the family into the hospital and waited until after all the goodbyes were exchanged between family members to address the traffic violation. This officer’s attitude was sickening and he will definitely reap what he sows. I hate to play the race card but for some reason I have this slight feeling that if it were a yt family it would not have played out like this….I could be wrong though…

    wait! that’s right…

    I’m still upset by my video. When my grandmother was critically ill my uncle rushed her to the hospital, running lights and stop signs. He had his hazard lights on also. A cop pulled him over and my uncle told him he was rushing my grandmother to the hospital. Immediately, the cop told my uncle to follow him and escorted them to the hospital. This was in Birmingham, Al and the cop was white! Birmingham, where we have always had to deal with racism. Had this cop in dallas tried to stop me from being with my dying mom, he would have had to shoot me in the back! He can mail me the damn ticket! Officer Robert Powell, KARMA BABY! Your actions will come back to get you.

    Below is a link to a radio interview Moats conducted about the incident. His mother-in-law was fighting breast cancer, and his family received a call around 1 a.m. from the hospital saying that she had flat-lined. The officer who trailed them to the hospital pointed his gun at Moats’ wife as soon as she darted out of the car to go to her mother. By the time Moats was able to go to the hospital room, his mother-in-law had already p*****ed. Terrible.

    _______

    The bottom line is that this officer did not have any sensitivity to the situation. Was he following protocol, Yes, I guess….but it could have been handled so much better and with ease….the officer intentionally made this situation difficult and I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t feel an ounce of guilt.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 9:57 am Mrs. Rance

    The officer is a stone cold idiot and is morally wrong all day long. BUT in reality he didn’t do anything that is punishable or actionable. The man ran a light and he pulled him over. That’s his job. I have run into *****wipe cops like him before who are too firm on the whole “you broke the law you pay the price” thing. He deserves this shame and embarr*****ment, but I don’t see that anything can be done beyond that. At least his wife got to be at her mother’s side although if I understand correctly the deceased husband was outside with the cop and the football player when she p*****ed. So sad.

    Hey, girl, happy Friday to you.

    “I hate to play the race card but for some reason I have this slight feeling that if it were a yt family it would not have played out like this….I could be wrong though…”

    No, you’re not wrong — Most likely, the officer would have totally shift gears and would have escorted them into the hospital during such an emotional moment. This episode was totally dehumanizing, and the officer showed zero empathy. I can’t imagine how I would feel if my mother was moments away from death in a hospital, and I have a gun drawn on me for a traffic violation. How traumatic.

    Moats said during his interview that he was concerned for his wife’s safety because he was on the other side of the car and couldn’t go to her immediately while the officer’s gun was drawn. It reminds me of the scene in Crash when Terance Howard and Thandie Newton were pulled over by a cop, and the helplessness he felt was palpable.

    And no, I don’t think the Dallas officer, Robert Powell, feels an ounce of guilt. But he should lose his job immediately, and the Moats should sue.

    And what’s with the cop sayin ” I could ruin your life” and takin out his gun.. They really need to give these cops psychological test before they give them a badge, or make them give atleast 20 minority personal references or something.
    ———————————————-

    PM, I completely agree.

    These policemen come into the police force thinking that all minorities or people who live in urban neighborhoods are criminals.

    They clearly don’t have any respect for their fellowman or woman, but wonders why we don’t have any respect for them.

    Well, here’s a few reasons:

    (1) The police are not here to “protect and serve”.
    (2) The police constantly abuse their “power”.
    (3) The police do not care about catching “real” criminals unless a criminal does something to their own.
    (4) The police will not hesitate to frame an innocent individual for a crime, if it will keep them from getting into trouble or if it will help them to solve an unrelated case.

    There’s more, but these are the main issues that I notice have plagued the image of the police force.

    The police are our friends. Yes, it’s a flawed system, but it’s the only system we have and as such, we must stand by and support it. At the end of the day, Officer Powell is human, and will make human mistakes. The Moats used poor judgment by disobeying the speed laws, so in that context, Officer Powell’s actions were within proper protocol and conduct. It was a stressful situation around. Moats foolish wife should count her blessings for not getting shot by stupidly bolting out of the car before being instructed to.

    @ The Police Protective League

    So you are telling me that this is how the story could have read:
    “Woman bolts out of car pulled over for traffic violation to run in hospital…..shot in back and killed”. (damn, looking at it, that’s believable…..and thats a shame)

    If anything her running into a HOSPITAL should have been the cue for Powell to check his attitude and use some damn common sense.

    I wonder if your mother was dying if you might break the speed limit or run a red light….
    You should have just stopped at “Yes, its a flawed system”.

    If he was a normal guy no one would hear about it or would care. But since he is a celebrity he should get a p***** for breaking the law????????? Sorry but that officer was doing his job. U have a violator that refused to stop and yall think he did something wrong? What that NFL player should have done was stop when the officer hit them lights and explained what happened. You don’t ignore and officer and keep driving thinking its ok just because someone is at the hospital, people die everyday. Now if he was rude then that is wrong but you can’t ignore the police when you ran a light and think its ok. Now watch everyone say O we headed to the hospital when they get pulled over, that Police Chief needs to grow a pair.

    again you people are taking this all out of context… THOSE PEOPLE WERE TERRORIST (just look at his beard)… that officer was doing what he had to do to keep America safe… you see a woman rushing to be at the bedside of her dying mother… HOWEVER you fail to realize… that was obviously a diversion… she was really attempting to draw attention away from her husband who was in the process of detonating a suicide bomb… that brave man and great American pulling his gun and detaining Mr. Moats (who obviously infiltrated the NFL to carryout an exploding running back operation… if that’s even his real name) was the only thing that saved America from total destruction… you people need to learn to respect authority and realize we are fighting like 20 wars… right now… that other cop and those nurses were obviously America hating traitors… we are all going to have to sacrifice our liberty… so that we can preserve our freedom… come on everybody… YES THEY CAN… I mean… YES WE CAN…

A lot of these crazies are flying under the radar. What killed me was when the nurse came out and told the cop the family was needed inside the hospital and the officer responded “Just one minute. I’m almost done”. Unbelievable. How would he behave if this were a white family? Exactly!! They better fire his heartless and soulless *****! And scary as it seems, he’s just one in a thousand out there.

    @ The Police Protective League…
    When the Chief of Police is outraged, that is a clear indication that Powell’s actions were not “within proper protocol and conduct”. He was told 3 times by the hospital staff that Mr. Moats were telling the truth. At that point, our police “friend” could have handled this situation in a more professional, moral manner. He let is pride and self gratification get in the way and did not like the fact that Moats raised his voice at him. Because of that he exhibited poor judgement and as a result is being reprimended. Whether it is paid leave or not, I am proud, for once, that DPD is finally taking some kind of responsibility and letting the public know that Powell’s actions were not warrented and unneccesary.

    Further evidence that we are living in a Po-leese State.

    The governments own numbers prove we are – (since yall love stats so much)

    70% of drug use – white folks
    80% of funding in “the war on drugs” – “urban” areas
    90% of people locked up for drug posession – Black and Latino

    Simple formula…..instill poverty, mis-education and basic hopelessness in a community (set the situtation), infultrate with drugs (provide the means), saturate the community with law enforcement and build more jails (the end). They now have control over the situation and the means to an end. Again, THEIR OWN numbers back it up.

    @The Police Protective League

    I’ve also worked with the police chief long enough to know that common sense is also very important thing to have when you are an officer. So many officers get written up and suspended for being *****holes at a time they didn’t need to be. This was a perfect example of a police going off on his power. He could have written him up the ticket and told him to have a nice day! how sad! If your own partner will turn you in, that means you were wrong!

    Baltimore isnt the murder capital because of the police. I think the black folks in that city have bigger priorities than *****ing with the police.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 11:29 am Kigali

    In any event its pretty safe to *****ume that if some is driving erractically or speeding and ends up at the hospital its because of an emergency.

    Besides that if you are a black person that comes from a city with high murder rates, you better makes friends with the police because you might need them one day.

    Teachers and police are not the enemy, in most cases.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 11:30 am CaneRiver1

    The woman died. Her daughter, mother and dad were right outside and did not get the chance to hold her hand or look in her eyes before she p*****ed on. I watched the entire video and did not see anything the family did that merited this treatment from the officer plain and simple. There is even another officer at the end of the tape laughing and stating he going to get something to eat. Strictly no EMPATHY here. My hat goes off to the driver that maintained his cool during the whole ordeal. Th errie part about this video is during the silence, you get to really realize how much the officer is purposely detaining this guy just for the hell of it. I sure hope this family has the guts to take the big “D” Dallas to court on this one. This is not about the money. This is strictly PRINCIPLE. This is a sad situation and really help to remind all that is it time for a change. Change just comes to some slower than others.

    If te chief of police is saying something is wrong, I think he’s right. I agree with giving him a ticket for the stop sign, but going off for 16 minutes about a ticket when “THREE” people plus two other people told you his mother was about die and you still don’t get it! It was just commonsense! he didn’t want to let the guy go because it would have made him look stupid. The chief saw the tape, and he couldn’t believe how stupid someone in his own force could be.

    Context is everything. It isnt as if the man was driving away from the bank or the club like he was crazy. He drove to the hospital, car filled with members of his family. Common sense would have made this officer’s job a lot easier. He could have escorted them inside the hospital and got the information there.

    Its really in poor taste to put a value on someone else’s life. If that was your child in there, I am sure you would make an exception. Now stop being an *****hole and water my lawn.

    Now the cop is home, with pay, to: molest his daughter, beat his wife, and threaten to shoot the dog in front of his son.
    He will probably be promoted next year.

    And people wonder why our folks hate the police.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 1:14 pm The Arkestra

    I think its out of line to bring up police killings when they have killed so many unarmed people. I also think it disrespects this man’s family and any other person who has suffered at the hands of over zealous psychotic police. I’m not saying any of those dead cops deserved to be gunned down in cold blood. I am saying that some of us have no respect for those in grief. If I posted a list of names of unarmed people who have died at the hands of the criminal police or citizen criminals it would take over this entire thread. Hate works both ways with or without a badge I still sympathize with the moats and any other victim of senseless violence despite color, cl*****, or occupation. People open your eyes.

    “I think its out of line to bring up police killings when they have killed so many unarmed people.”

    I think its out of line to bring up police killings when we are so much more likely to be killed by a young black man raised by a single mother than a cop, any day.

    Actually most people dont hate the police and they probably dont hate the police because they know that the police is reponsible for more good in our society than bad.

    If people can hate the police because of situations like this than they can just as well hate black people because of the rate of crime in our community. I dont think you want to play that game.

    Sorry but that cop would have had to just pull the trigger on me if my mom was on her death bed. I would not have argued or stoped at his request. Matter of fact I would have told him to go ahead and shoot since I was already at the hospital and hoped I lived through it to sue the ***** when I recooperated. He is going to sue them anyway for pain and suffering as well as abuse of authority.

    I understand completely. I will not decide how people say goodbye to their loved ones forever. Thats cruel.

And the role of the police is essential, living saving even.

    Separated, so I am a single parent. I have 3 kids and 3 step kids. I go to school full time. I work full time. I graduate from a JUCO in May then go to NSU in the fall. My 3 sons in college got their by scholarship to D-1 schools, two by sports and one from academics. Oh and trust the two from sports graduated honor roll and all three have made the dean’s list. I retired from teh Navy after 20 years. I work cause I want to not cause I have to. I am going to school to be a teacher. All my daughters are on the honor roll. Oh and the 2 step kids, I pay for their health insurance. I could have filed for divorce, but wanted to make sure they have what they need to help thier mother out.

    So please tell me how as a black woman I have failed my kids? So tell me how any of these folks on bossip have to worry about getting killed from the kids of a single parent?

    @jb_1030,

    Please dont act as if your life, and your life story is the norm for black females. It isnt.

    My advice, suck it up and go back to your husband, so long as he isnt abusive, cheating (and if he is perhaps you can consider how you may have contributed to it), on drugs, or a pyscho path, as wonderful of a woman as you are, your 6 children need him as much as they need you. This family isnt about you anymore its about them.

    Just so I can set you straight,

    Husband was on drugs for 10 years BEFORE I met him, he was already in and out of his kids lives. When we met, he had been out of prison for 2 years after serving 8. He was making $60,000 legally as an electrician. He had gotten someone else pregnant right before we dated and decided that he needed the drugs to deal with her instead of trusting me. So like many black women, we try to save teh man. WE got married so that he could get the medical benefits I WAS ABLE TO GIVE HIM so he could get help. This coming and going and me trying to help lasted for over a year when I finally put me and my 3 kids first and said we out. His kids I took in to my heart and talked to thier mother who was struggling trying to raise 3 kids and I ADDED them to MY INSURANCE!!

    “This family isnt about you anymore its about them.”

    See even though you try to put me down, I will let you another thing. My life is about my kids. Again I make enough from the Retirement and Disability I get from the VA to sit on my ***** and not have to worry about ***** ever again, but I don’t. My kids come first always have and always will.

    So I see when someone steps to you correct you still want to berate them. I am not looking for applause cause as long as my kids all 6 of them are excelling that is applause enough for me.

    “Please dont act as if your life, and your life story is the norm for black females. It isnt.”

    I don’t kow where you are from or where you reside now, but the “NORM” for me is right here. My family did the same thing, kids first then you.

    So in all of this when you put your posts up about black women, you need to be specific about them. Oh and I am still married cause once I get divorced then his kids will lose htier insurance. And I don’t kow of anyone who is willing to pay in excess of $600 a month for insurance premiums.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 1:54 pm bronzedasian

    Not ALL cops are bad…Not ALL cops are good. It just so happens Powell misjudged and abused his power. All cops can not be judged on the actions of one police officer as so not all black folks can be judged on the actions of another black person. But what Officer Powell did was uncalled for and he should be fired. He clearly abused his power, POINT BLANK.

    Well if my memory serves me correctly I’ve done that before but it’s a moot point when the person you are debating with has no rhyme or reason. And, for the record I’ve seen ‘The Great Debaters’ and the difference between them and you is that they actually debated people with high intellect and the ability to understand a situation without judging it first. Debating with you is like going down a one-way street with a dead end, running a stop sign at the dead end, and arguing about why you ran the stop sign in the first place….don’t get it?…exactly, that’s my point, you make ABSOLUTELY no sense. Have a good day and keep on stirring that pot.

    When it comes down to it they are human like everyone else and have families to go home to. Unfortunately there are some officers that need to be fired and should have never been hired. Don’t think that all officers are like that because of these corrupt ones.

    Mar 27, 2009 – 2:00 pm Sgt Pepper

    The officer is 100% right!!!. Moats is 100% wrong. When you see emergency lights you pull over. …PERIOD…If I was the cop I would of thought Moates was running. All Moates had to do was pull over and calmly explain the situation. The cop was the level headed one and I am sure he would of let Moats go if Moats had initially just pulled over. Once they were at the hospital Moats had the chance to comply and if he had of the officer would of let him go. The officer was level headed and calm. A police officer has to take control of the situation until they know what they are dealing with. Moats had the chance to explain quickly but he argued. The officer did his job. I guess this is why there are police unions. Cops get shot. Four officers died this week in Oakland. If they had initially approached the vehicle with weapons drawn they would be alive. And of course it would be labeled racism… But, I am sure their families would rather have their dad’s husbands,brothers,fathers,sons, uncles alive today and labeled racist then what they are now. They are DEAD!!! p.s the news media is the racist one here. Have you ever noticed that when a black cop does something to a black or a white person nothing comes of it. It is not plastered all over the news. But God forbid a white cop does something to a black person and the world falls apart. If Moats was white and the officer was black, this would not be in the national news media..Officer Robert Powell you would be welcomed addition to most any police force in the country. Hang in there!!!

    May I ask how do you personally see these effects? You used the word most, which would mean that you have see all but a few. Are you in the homes with these families doing studies? Are you in teh schools doing research on teh effects of single parents and school? I am just trying to fathom how you are able to see the effects on most as you have stated.

    This is one of the reasons why I have so much animosity towards police officers. Some of them are rude, abusive as well as belligerent. The are very mean spirited and use their authority to reak havoc on others. This incident is of no surprise to me.

    An officer of good character would have issued a warning and escorted them to the hospital with his sirens on. That would have been the safe and diplomatic way.

    The officers who behaved in this dispicable manner should be ashamed of themselves.

He couldve wrote them the damn ticket and called it a day. They didnt even get to be with their loved one before she p*****ed. And to think that this pittyful, arrogant, no- conscious having ***** is still getting paid even though he’s suspended??????

    As to you question…Yes Octomon is a terrible mother but there arent a bunch of women in the US trying to have 16 kids. She doesnt compare to most black children born to single females.

    There is literally TONS of research out there about children and single motherhood. Check it out. They more or less say the same thing. Children thrive in two parent homes. Children face many many more obstacles being raised by single mothers especially when it is compounded by poverty.

    @Kigali at this point reading your absurd excrement, don’t you think if I didn’t know how to read I would intentionally expose myself to your verbal vomit and lies. I know, you don’t think and that is the problem.

    You’re so confused by images of the so-called upper cl***** and lower cl***** hate that you fail to see how inconsistent and foolish you sound. I hear your whining about not being free to date your White woman, well that is your problem if you allow other people to dictate your life/happiness. In a previous blog you quoted Shahrazad Ali and like her you flaunt your supposed insight and research into human relationships. No self respecting woman subscribes to the belief that a man has the right to discipline a woman—going as far as slapping her on the mouth—no matter how strong or liberated she is… I know you want Black women hurt and destroyed, but YOU and your owners will NEVER break US! Most nationalistic or religiosity views about life, love, and limited liberty can eat a d!ck. I know who I am inside, how bout’ you?

    I should know better to mix words with an idiot quoting imbecile, but I’m enjoying the trench you have dug up for yourself. CEO of Womanhood? No no…not so fast. You maybe confusing me with Oprah, Hillary Clinton, or Condelezza Rice, or one of there sponsors. I’m my own personal CEO unlike yourself…Truth hurts.

    I don’t support Foxsearchlight films unlike YOU the self proclaimed ‘genius’ of hypocrisy…i digress.

    Ever hear of the Ying & yang? In Chinese and Korean philosophy the Yin yang describe opposing qualities in phenomena. For instance, winter is yin to summer’s yang over the course of a year, and femininity is yin to masculinity’s yang in human relationships. It is impossible to talk about yin or yang without some reference to the opposite. There are just as many single parents of all nationalities as there are single parent Black Women. You haven’t gotten to the surface of this sick society, I sincerely grieve for your children. It is you who must live with your sick trick bag of *****ogy’s and you could never cause me to believe your lies.

    You’re such a miserable rabble rousing phoney. My apologies for the nouvelle bossip, but I’m exercising my 1st amendment rights while I still can.

    The truth is more important than the feelings and the sensitivities of black females. Thats the difference between men and women. Men are empowered by truth and women are insulted by it.

    I dont want to see black females or their children hurt which is why I suggest they dont give birth to them when they are poor, uneducated, and single. Children are hurt when they are raised under these cir*****stances. I also tell black females to be responsible for their own birth control. Not that bull***** about it takes two to tango. If you grown enough to get *****ed you should be grown enough to provide your own potentially live saving rubber.

    I dont want to see black females or their children hurt which is why I suggest they dont give birth to them when they are poor, uneducated, and single.

    Ok if that was the case then many of us would not be here. How many of our ancestors were uneducated, poor and single either by desertion of the father/husband? THere are many great blacks (I use that term because I have never been to Africa so therefore I am not African-American just my opinion) that have risen from the life of poverty and have made sure that they were no longer going to be a statistic.

    “I also tell black females to be responsible for their own birth control. Not that bull***** about it takes two to tango. If you grown enough to get *****ed you should be grown enough to provide your own potentially live saving rubber.”

    This is one of the few points I have to agree with you. BUt you can’t go blaming the ladies soley for unprotected sex and children. Guys should not believe women when it comes to the pill either. Not saying all women, but guys need to be held responsible equally as women.

    Ok. I’m glad you’ve done some research. I’m sure your OBGYN also told you that while the “bewitching” year may be 38 the statistics also show that it is “progression” to that year.

    I’m spiritual person myself. One of the things that sticks out the most to me is “God helps those that help themselves.” With the knowledge that you have and to continue to take your chances some would call “hubris.”

I know that’s not everyone’s story, but the ‘baby mommas’ I know said that they love their children to death, but if they could do it all over again, they would have waited…but everything in life happens for a reason…so those lives are still blessings. :)

    What I am saying is if a guy doesn’t want to take the chance on getting a girl pregnant then he needs to make sure that he is protected or just refrain from having sex altogether. Just as women tell guys oh I am on the pill, he can still say that he wants to make sure and wears a rubber. Just because she is onteh pill does nto mean it wont happen. Hell I have seen in medical journals that babies are born holding an IUD in thier hand.

    So after this novel, I say men are as equally responsible for thier part in making babies. DOn’t want none, cover up. Steve Austin DTA Don’t trust Anyone.

    You’re right, marriage is not guaranteed at all, but it’s a good foundation to start with. I’d rather my children have the opportunity to see a successful working committed relationship between a man and woman, than to not have a clue and be out here trying to do something with a member of the opposite s3x when they get older and not have a clue as to what they are doing or how it should be. It’s all a cycle. Just like you say you should be mindful of waiting too late in life to have children, it’s also good to be mindful of other odds in life that can make things harder than what they need to be. I’m just trying to be the best person I can for myself and for my family.

But it is imperative the father remains in the child’s life. Now, if the parent is doing more harm than good, of course not. That parent should move on.

    “What I am saying is if a guy doesn’t want to take the chance on getting a girl pregnant then he needs to make sure that he is protected or just refrain from having sex altogether. Just as women tell guys oh I am on the pill, he can still say that he wants to make sure and wears a rubber. Just because she is onteh pill does nto mean it wont happen. Hell I have seen in medical journals that babies are born holding an IUD in thier hand.

    So after this novel, I say men are as equally responsible for thier part in making babies. DOn’t want none, cover up. Steve Austin DTA Don’t trust Anyone.

    Except you C you can trust your husband. LOL”
    __________________________________________________________

    I may be alone in this but I believe equal responsiblity should be given when both have equal authority to make decisions.

    If TWO parties decide to have unprotected sex for whatever reason, then only ONE party has the right to decide to go through with the pregnancy or not.

    Men are completely, legally beholden to the decision of the woman when BOTH decided to have unprotected sex. Shouldn’t BOTH of them be involved in the decision?

    If not, why not?

    I’d rather my children have the opportunity to see a successful working committed relationship between a man and woman

    So then you are saying if someone is in a committed relationship then its ok have kids even though you have said that marriages are what kids need.

    So you are ok with Halle and Gabrielle and Brad and Angelina not being married but having kids out of wedlock? Halle is a single black parent is she doomed to be a failure in your eyes? Again I am not coming at you in a negative way, I am trying to understand what you have written before and what you are saying now

    I understand where you are coming from. But put it this way when a man has sex does he not know that a woman may be able to get pregnant? If he does, then he is equally responsible. Now if she decides to keep the child even though he doesn’t want it, he has the legal right to terminate his parental rights.

    But again, if a man or a woman do not want children and they are not married, then they need to both be “covered”.

    I am saying terminate the parental rights because if a man wanted a woman to get an abortion in the first place, he didn’t want the child anyway. So go to court and give up the rights and be done with it.

    ______________________________________________________________

    Yes, at the point of conception BOTH parties are aware that a child could be created and therefore BOTH parties are “responsible.”

    However, after that “waiving parental rights” does NOT absolve the father of financial responsibilities should the female choose to have the child. If that were the case a lot of “dead beat dads” would just “waive their rights.”

    Also known as “waive the rights, not the obligation.”

    @jb1030,

    The vast majority of single black mothers dont have Hallie or Jolie money.

    But this isnt about money. Marriage teaches children valuable lesson that cant be bought. Having a father present as a husband/father in the childs life teaches them very important things. I would rather have a poor couple have children than a single wealthy person.

    In addition good marriages perpetuate marriage. So if you want to see the rate of marriage go up in the black community, black kids have to see it in their lives, day in and day out.

    When children are very young, they dont understand the technicality of marriage but they do see their parents together. However as they get older you may be p*****ing on the idea that you can have children outside of wedlock if you are involved in a common law relationship. If you are with that person and have kids, why not get married?

    I cant believe I am even having this debate with you as if marriage is some sort of crime. If you arent interested in commitment, you shouldnt have had kids with that person which would make this whole conversation mute.

    Just dont have kids. Spare them the heartache.

    BUT how do you KNOW that he “wants the children (you) have?” Because he said so? More than likely you believe this because you have a marriage license which gives you protection should of been lying to you.

    My entire point is that just because “marriage” has billed as some sort of “responsible” institution for children, the fact is that it’s not a guarantee.

    The only thing is it provides legal protection for the two involved in the marriage. That’s it. It’s a legal agreement.

    So now you’re saying I don’t know my husband and that he’s lying to me?….lol, ok, even though that could be true in rare cir*****stances, I’m very sure that he wants children with me. He’s expressed wanting children even before we got married. We’ve discussed where we want to send our kids to school and what neighborhood we’d like to live in for them… he also waited to have children so given that we are both close to 30 I’m sure his desires are not fake. I’m not banking on marriage as something that’s guaranteed, but I’m trying to figure out why you are looking at it as such a bad thing. Last time I checked two people choosing to marry and have children after committing to each other before God or before the courthouse was not such a shabby thing…

    The officer tried to detain Moates because he was having an affair with Powell’s white sister and he obviously is against interracial dating and just hates black men. He was going to shoot him if he was in the parking lot with him alone and simply say that he though he was reaching for a gun when it was just his wallet with the insurance card inside. He knew his plan was useless when the nurses and other cop came out. But then again, Officer Powell really just wanted a vacation, a paid vacation and some fame so that he could go back to work and celebrate with all his other KKK buddies until one of the other guys breaks a better story.

    - uhh the officer wasnt right for variety of reasons , if he was – his commanding officer i.e. the police chief would not be apologizing neither would have the city administration as in all likelyhood there is a impending lawsuit. If you actually read the transcript on dallasmorningnews – moates didnt bother to pull it out in the minutes this clown was lecturing on his “attitude” and waving his pistol everywhere. Which all of which he was still doing despite being advised by other law enforcement and hospital staff this woman was dying and dead when he finally reached her..lord

Was he shooting out of his car window? Was he in a stolen car?…NO, he was rushing to his mother’s side..what the F*&*…nothing else matters @ that point…Those of you that cant see that need to relocate to Mars..Officer Powell, like the chief said ‘did n ot use his common sense’ Go find a murderer, a burglar, help an old lady across the street, something…’***** your siren, protect me when I need to be protected. Send my ticket in the mail. Come on, the guy pulled into the hospital parking lot. He was obedient when he finally stopped and the officer proceeded to be a JERK after gaining knowledge of the urgency. What kind of society are we living in if some of you idiots think he did something wrong? What if it was your mom, or child and this happened to you? First of all, I commend Moates because in a situation as sensitive as death, some people would not be able to even hop in the driver’s seat!!!!

    What a pathetic waste of tax payer money. Some of you are so controlled that you can’t ***** without someone telling you to sit on the toliet. There was absolutely no comp*****ion shown towards Moats. I heard the officer say that he wrote up another man and had him sent to prison because he had a background. It is not my place to judge moats personal life so the idiot saying he is having an affair with a white woman or whatever woman he chooses is between him and his wife. Humanity what happened the cop powell is less of a human being like so many of the comments here. I know that some of you will be faced with an uncomp*****ionate *****hole like the cop powell.

    I just viewed the tape entire exchange on you tube and I am outraged. It is very disturbing that this officer can abuse these people by issuing ultimatums and threats in a time of distress. The cop was using his authority to intimidate, har***** and threaten Ryan when all he wanted to do was see his mother in law before she died.

    This cop detained him for almost 14 minutes and did not have a care in the world about this womans impending death. The cop told Ryan to watch his attitude and his tone or else he is going to prison. Racism seemed to play a factor in this officers abusive demeanor. The officer wanted to show Ryan that he was in charge and that he should address him with respect.

    This officer is an abusive tyrant. He is equivalent to vermin in my opinion and he certainly does not deserve respect. A course in sensitivity training will not help matters. This officer is a narcissistic beast that should be fired immediately. The police force have enough insensitive idiots on the force who only sign up because they have the overwhelming urge to abuse someone just because they are in the position of authority.

    Hospital or no hospital, they could have been anyone!!!

    HOWEVER, once the officer realized the situation he could have had his partner escort Moates into the hospital while he ran the plates and checked everything out, and simply left the ticket on the windshield or something.

    He was taking his sweet time, simply because he could! Even after the Plano police officer came and explained the situation, it still took him over 10 minutes to write the ticket. The officer was an inconsiderate Jack*****.

    With the video evidence, should this cop really be on paid leave? This was just another senseless act of a cop letting that badge get to his head…. He should not be @ home sitting on his ***** getting paid for being and insensitive *****hole…

    I AGREED 100%!!!

    I will agree that pulling a gun on the family outside the hospital was terrible. But The report was that he had ran a red light which is why they pulled him over in the first place. My brother was in a similar situation where he was driving his girlfriend and her mother to the hospital behind the ambulance that her father was in b/c he was dying too. He ran a light and hit a truck head on. Luckily, we only attended one funeral instead of four. So I can understand that the officer was doing his job on that aspect. Nonetheless, he shouldn’t have went the extra mile after finding out the situation. My prayers go out to the family.

    this is ridiculous, i hope he gets fired, that sorry a** powell, he was so condesending in his tone when he talked to Moats. I don’t see how anybody black can live in Texas, the execution captial of the land!!!

    Moats didn’t run it, he slowed down with his hazards on, and the opposing CAR realized and waved Moats through the intersection. It was almost 2 am, hardly any traffic…Moats wasn’t a fool he didn’t blast through the light.

    Shaking my head!!

    I just moved to Dallas and kinda questioning if it was the right move after hearing about this! The officer was dead wrong for what he did and i sincerely believed had it of been a plan white person, yes i said it.. he would of let them go with no problem and probably would of given a police escort! He shouldn’t of been put on paid leave he should be fired,point blank period, bet you if he was a black officer doing that to a white family..guess what? yep you guessed it he would be so fired with no questioning cuz the white community would be sooo outraged that the police department wouldn’t want that kinda heat coming down on their *****es!
