I saw this on the news.. thank God for those Cameras

Damn you’re a fast little monkey aren’t you?

ha? is this topic funny legend?

on topic: dang thats boguz. po-po be buggin out.

Oh my goodness…this is sad…

@pm
Thank GOD for camera’s…really.

monkey?

my tummy hurts on a Friday. That sux

Wait, did they state they were rushing to the hospital?

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 circumstances.

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

SMH

@OneStep

I agree…what a STRESSFUL (for lack of a better word) circumstance and yet they still managed to respectful…

This is truly a mis-use of a police badge. But, 4 those of us from da hood (B-More Careful-Baltimore) this type os sh#@ happens everyday. May God bless this family. I hope his mother-in-law haunts the sh*t out of these officers!

Good morneing everyone!!!
Dang this is sad!!!!! I seen something like this on T.V. awhile ago with and elderly man rushing his wife the hospital who was having a heart attack and the cop stopped him, seen the woman in distress, and continued to lecture the poor man about speeding. Ok Im depressed now. Make me laugh somebody!!!!!!!!

One Time is at it again? Good Lawd!!!!

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.

TGIF! Hey LUV-LEE, you jive turkey

Sad situation man… My prayers go out to the Moat’s family. Wow.

they should file a lawsuit. people don’t ever want to say it but was there some racial sh*t going on.

I don’t think this was a racial issue, although there may have been a racial component involved…

This guy was over-exercising his authority…

Why am I not surprised?

Good morning Jive Turkey!!! Im getting out of this thread…Im so sad right now!!!

This was overkill…definitely a racist overtone.

I remember this story where the officer pretty much harrassed 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.

….This is truly f@#ked up….the police better not try to stop me when my wife’s water breaks….’cause I’m cutting trail on the asses….

Damn @ Re

….Get out of my head!!!….

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

@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.

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.

Exactly, whatyousay.

Powell has no common sense, no compassion, 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).

I Am Royalty,

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

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.

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

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 masses. 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 class 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 compassion as you peruse the want ads.

@jb_1030

….Me neither….but I am disgusted by the action of the above stated pig….

I live in Dallas and I can’t wait to move!

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.

@ pm

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.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
COSIGN

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

@ 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.

@ Just Sayin & @ pm

ditto!

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 agree that they should have to take extensive psychological tests….this is just terrible

A lot of these cops are the same punks that got picked on in school or from some racist county that wants to harass/kill minorities.

Imagine how many of these incidents go unreported!

F one time….
look me up…

Since this does not routinely happen to other races, no one cares to solve the problem. I know Jesse Jackson and them gonna be all over this

@DADDYO

WITH THE RIGHT LAWYER, THERE’S ALWAYS A CHANCE FOR A LAWSUIT!

pig even made him wait while he finished the ticket….

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…

GOdd MOrning Nothing Like the Police Man they are so amazing what a great job officer’s and what a lesson they will learn a little vacation with Pay … looking around …

Correction: Jerris Madison

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 passed. Terrible.

Hey girl, happy friday.

_______

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.

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 asswipe 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 embarrassment, 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 passed. So sad.

@c from stl

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.

*Terrance Howard*

This is why no one likes the police…and sad to say, it will always be thise way. Its just too many crooked ones at this point!

I tell ya, it dont matter what city it is anymore, the police are getting out of control. Some just dont have any common sense while most abuse their authority. SMH…SMH…

He was just doing his job, usually a black man speeding in a nice car is getting away from a drug bust or murdering his x-wife and her new boy-friend! LOL!!!!!!!

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.

And how about until you all grow a pair or have been in the line of duty, you keep your mouth shut because no matter how much you bad mouth the police. You gonna be dialing 911 when something happens to you so save your breathe. U want change then do something about it like Obama ran for office, join the force retards.

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…

And they wonder why people hate the cops…They are arrogant pricks!

@the police protective league… that is exactly what I am saying… the government knows what is best for us all… and the police are here to inspect and observe… I mean protect and serve… YES WE CAN… you people need to get on board… all you have to do is just pray to Barack Obama… he will take care of everything… we got a brotha in the white house yall… and you know what that means… in the face of evil… there is hope… and through hope… we can cause change… LETS CHANGE THE WORLD… BECAUSE… YES WE CAN… IF THEY WOULD HAVE JUST USED HOPE AND CHANGE… NONE OF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED…

eddie and Ill, luv u guys post!

Was this in Dallas? damn my city is bad as hell but the cops dont fuc* with you as much, they know these fools here are just as crazy as they are!!

The Police are our friends. Support your local law establishments. They are there for yours and our protection. All of this misplaced anger and emotions are unwarranted. The Police are our friends.

@ eddiedollars215

Genius…lol

LMAO @ eddiedollars…..yeah brah, change-a-comin.

** Waddup Purps **

Damn mild…..you be seein the most random shit.

Every time a cop dies on duty and angel gets his wings.

@ 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.
DALLAS- BORN and RAISED!

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.

In any event its pretty safe to assume 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.

@Ed Meese’s Ghost

They’ll say the same thing about you when you die. People will forget to show up to your funeral and your casket will fall upside down into the grave, and the grave diggers will be so lazy they will just throw the dirt on you and laugh about the incident.

@BMW

I understand completely. I will not decide how people say goodbye to their loved ones forever. Thats cruel. But I dont think it should be used as a pretext to bash the police when our communities (thanks to the parenting skills of you know who) our war zones. And the role of the police is essential, living saving even.

Did ya’ll forget theses saltines is still mad ….

WE GOT A BLACK PRES

And that means what?

Why is he still getting paid?! What a slap in the face! I hope the family file suit and bankrupt his ass.

I’m soo sick and tired of these PPIGS getting away w/ murder! This dude should be FIRED!!!!

@VanTok,

Never sell your soul, because it’s nearly impossible to get it back once you go over to the sociopathic side.

This incident extremly disguesting like so many tragic events that are happening at this very moment. The cop who showed no compassion will receive none, bet that. This type of authority figure deserves NO respect. If you ask me the cops murdered that man’s mother.

SUSPENDED WITH PAY BULLSHIT!

How do you punish someone by paying them while they’re suspended, that’s a damn vacation.

You can tell when someone is unhappy at home because they bring that bs to work.

“How do you punish someone by paying them while they’re suspended, that’s a damn vacation.”

@ STEFANY

LOL…..you ain’t neva lie.
Suspended with pay = Public relations move……window dressing. Showing “action” for the sake of public opinion (which is TOOOO easy to manipulate). Guaranteed…..”the officer was given specialized sensitivity training” is right around the corner…..that bus is never late.

NOPE THAT PECKER WOOD COP NEEDS TO BE FIRED AND HE CERTIANLY DONT NEED TO GET PAID WHILE ON LEAVE
………HE WAS BLATANTLY OUT OF LINE………I CANT STAND COPS FOR THIS REASON CAUSE ALL OF THEM IVE EVEN SEEN SEEM TO HAVE A DAMN CHIP ON THEIR SHOULDER

If you Black get back in Plano!! Good Ol Boy cops. Only because it was an NFL player that it got this kind of attention. This is shameful. Just goes to show we have a LONG way to go before we get fair treatment in this country.

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.

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, class, or occupation. People open your eyes.

@The Arkestra,

“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.

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 bastard when I recooperated. He is going to sue them anyway for pain and suffering as well as abuse of authority.

@jb_1030

Congratulations sista, I know you are proud of not only yourself but your children. You have signified how much it pays off to work hard and stay focused. You are being blessed and will continue to be blessed…as far as I can see you haven’t failed your kids as a single parent in the least bit…

the officer had a valid point but he was very unsympathetic and took it oo far…he wasisted time with idle threats and berating his power and what he can do. there could have been better ways to handle a situation such as this.

Everyone here in Dallas (black, white, mexican, chinese, indian, native american, etc) is outraged by this fool’s behavior. A clear case of no self-esteem, personal issues, poor quality of life and someone who can only be a man while hiding behind a badge.

@jb_1030 ..you are a damn good mother; but are alot of kids that don’t have that. family memeber that on crack and all five of her kids are were in state foster care. 2 of the boys meet each other in jail.

Complain and Complain! and still call 911 because Ray Ray smoked up all your valuables! lol

Why is it that you never hear about white folks getting caught up by black cops in a situation such as this.

Damn can’t he see they were going to the emergency room; that’s where you go when it’s an emergency.

FIRE his aZZ!

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.

Sorry everyone for the novel

Cops are mad that President Obama won. Keep praying because evil hearts want to kill all of us blacks.

I wanna see more of Uh Huh…look at that body..

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.

I don’t think this was a racial issue, although there may have been a racial component involved…

*this is too funny

Lol welcome to Texas people ..was wondering on the CPT time here when they would post this , my state is on Fire right now

@Kigali- Texas is a castle doctrine state , most of us here take of ourselves , I dont need law enforcement and can more than numerous cases(Robbie Tolan ?) as this is more than every day situation here , The reality of situation when it really calls for it – in the seconds that count the police will not be 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 passed 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!

bet it was a white offider

OH MY GOD!!!!!!! This is so disgusting, what an AHOLE Police officer….when he found out the mans Mom-In-Law was dying he ….man i just have no words….just disgusting!!!!!!!!!! i HOPE THEY FIRE HIS A**

I WON’T EVEN COMMENT ON THIS, I’M VERY UPSET BY IT BUT I WANT TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT IF YOU ARE EVER IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS, OR HAVE TO RUSH TO SOMEWHERE BECAUSE OF AN EMERGENCY, CALL 911 BEFORE OR AS YOU ARE LEAVING TO LET THEM KNOW OF THE SITUATION AND ASK FOR AN ESCORT.. 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.

also, i wish moats would have just said give me a ticket, tow my car, doesn’t matter but would have RUSHED IN THE HOSPITAL LIKE HIS WIFE DID ANYWAY

ever heard this question come from white ppl>> “well how does that make you feel?”

its obvious they want to KNOW youre feeling frustrated,stressed,depressed or miserable

I see the effects of most black children being born to single mothers and the results arent good.

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.

So answer this for me. Is the Octo-Mom (as the media has named her) going to be a good mother or will her kids fail? Or will they in what I have seen from your comments excel, because only single black mothers fail?

now that is comedy!!!!

The funny thing is that I really wanted to believe her claims of her identity…lol, even when SMDH would trash her/him and others would say similar stuff, I’d think to myself…’they’re just being hard on her because they can’t take what she’s saying…’ but now I’m like, ok, this is just ridiculous…the more he/she talks the more he/she contradicts herself/himself and starts to just sound hateful with no foundation for it. He/She has far surpassed any intelligent and healthy debate because it’s impossible to have with him/her. lmao!

ANyways you and Mike should make a song together

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.

@KIGALI’S EMPLOYER

Yeah, that’s another thing that I’ve tried to not believe, but you know what, I’m thinking she does work for them…

or maybe he/she has been through alot. depression is a disease, people who come out here and vent their situation have been through alot of problems. he/she just needs alittle help. LOL

I love your gravie. I reminds me of my puppy. He is so cute. He is a pit.

Just another day on police force and a rude awakening for the people who unfortunately have to come into contact with some of the most ruthless on the team. That’s a damn shame. He couldve wrote them the damn ticket and called it a day. They didnt even get to be with their loved one before she passed. And to think that this pittyful, arrogant, no- conscious having mofo is still getting paid even though he’s suspended?????? Well that just sadly justifies my statement above…..just another day on the police force…. RIP to the women who passed away.

i swear i did my gravie weeks ago..and i still cant get my pic to show…

Thanks! I love cats to death so all my gravies have had some kind of feline pic in it…My brother in law has a baby pit, such a little cutie…

ok, thanks for that…let’s see what it does…

@jb1030

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.

ok here goes…..

@R.KELLY

Yeah, we already know you feel that way, lol, you probably think your wife (the real one) is a geriatric old maid and she’s probably not even 40 yet! lmao!

I have to do some *work*

@jb
i”ll think about it.

If that doesn’t work, then click your start window and click on ‘Run’, type in %temp% and then delete all the files you see that come up in the window. Your computer will tell you if it can’t delete a certain file, after you do that close your browser and re-open it, then it should work….sorry, I used to study computer science back in undergrad…lmao!

Can I recommend books by Dr. Laura Schlessinger. They are really good.

@Man,

Women typically don’t hit menopause till the early to mid 40s, i’ve got plenty of time

there is nothing wrong with being a “baby momma.” I guess a lot of people want that legal protection of marriage though.

@ Kigali May I suggest Wanna Make Me Holla by Nathan McCall, who was from a two parent family and still went to prison but also went on to become a successful journalist as well as professor down in Atlanta.

Legalities have nothing to do with it, it was just the way I was raised.

I disagree, I know plenty of women that are ‘baby mommas’ and wish they could do it all over again.

Um… people have been having kids for centuries “just to have them.” It’s a natural drive to have them, not “foolish” just “human.”

The women that you mention, do they resent the CHILDREN or some of the ISSUES that came along with having the child? The very ISSUES that they wished they prevented by getting married?

@Man

Oh don’t worry, I’m planning on getting pregnant within the next couple of years, I spoken with my GYN and he said the bewitching year is 38…so, I don’t plan on having a tribe, but I’m not 30 yet so I’ve got some time…I’m very spiritual so I feel like God willing my kids will come out just fine, I don’t think He would have wanted me to get pregnant out of wedlock and not have some financial stability just to beat the odds….ya know?

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 get where you are coming from though, at least you have some stuff planned out.

They resented not waiting to get themselves together first. Life is delicate and when you bring a child into this world it’s important to give it the best life you can, so it’s foolish to be in the middle of high school or college and then get pregnant and have to drop out to raise the child and then trying to go back to school with the child (which is much harder to do) and then still be struggling because of the fact that the child’s father is most likely not around and you are stuck being a ‘baby momma’ and having to do it all on your own. 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.

Well my great grandmother had my great aunt at 40 and she came out just fine. I’ve also had other relatives that had kids well into their 30s and the kids came out fine. I’ve got an in-law that’s getting married this summer and she’s 37 but she’s going to give her husband a child because he’s never had kids. You do have to be smart, but it’s all about how you take care of yourself and what is meant to happen.

actually c from stl is right, women usually get menopause in their mid 40′s. sometimes it is not safe for a 40yr old woman to have a kid, cause he/she might be a retard or come out dunce. aight gotta go work is over bye ya”ll and have a great weekend.

____________________________________________________________

Using the example that you gave, your gripe isn’t with ‘being married” or “being with someone.” Your gripe is being PREPARED to take care of child.

Which I can understand. BUT just because you are married, educated, older etc. doesn’t mean that you will be more prepared than some “baby mommas.”

Marriage is not a guarantee for anything when it comes to children. I’m just sayin.

If it’s a risk that you are willing to take than by all means do you. But do realize, you ARE taking on more risk.

Bye Educated Black Man

@Man

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.

@ Man

I agree in the preparation, AND I also do believe in a 2 parent home. I was raised with my mother AND father. They made it work. I’m not saying marriage is the end all, be all. 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.

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

@Man

I actually agree with you wholeheartedly about the abortion thing…

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.

@jb1030,

Black people have become less united in matrimony. In the 1960s most of us were married. Our values have changed for the worst.

@jb1030,

So are you saying that Halle’s daughter will be a failure because they are not married or the same with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie?

Times have changed. Just because people are not maried doesn’t mean they cannot become good parents.

@ jb_1030
HOLLA!

@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.

@ Man

I just say cover it up. Hell wear two or be like a monk and don’t do it. Or go to the toy store and handle business on his own.

@Man I just dont Care,

But the irony of this is, if the father were able to legally and financially wave his rights women wouldnt have kids all willy nilly like they do. I bet birth control would become a house hold item for a lot of women.

@ Kigali

Marriage teaches children valuable lesson that cant be bought.
****************************************************

So again I ask, tehn you are saying that money or not, Halle’s daughter or the Joile-Pitt kids will not learn valuable lessons?

Or just any single but in a committed or in California common-law marrige, cannot learn the same valuable lessons as children whose parents are married?

@ Kigali
thats true…

I work for a pharmacuetical company, and all I deal with is one IUD….and we get calls after calls requesting this IUD. especially in these economic times..

EXACTLY. The risk is dramatically reduced for the female by the legal system. They know that even if they do become pregnant Uncle Sam will step in to force the man to pay.

Sorta like the proverbial father with the shotgun in the past to make the guy “marry” his knocked up daughter. LOL.

jb_1030

girl you betta come on!!! fo real this time…im out!

@jb1030

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 passing 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.

bye yall

Only with black folks do you have to defend marriage like it is some evil on earth.

@Man

So, from what you just said can you blame me for wanting to take the responsible route and marry a man that actually wants to be there and wants the children I have?… Alot and I do mean ALOT of ‘baby mommas’ deal with men that don’t want any part of the pregnancy or the child….and you are right alot of these chicks get pregnant to try and keep the man and make him pay. I want no part of that drama in my life…that’s why I waited….

___________________________________________________________

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.

@Man

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 circumstances, 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…

1 day this 2 shall end—Peace and much Love to the bereaved family. They portrayed such Grace and Elegance in a time where NONE was shown to THEM!

@Man,

Peace, I’m out…have a good weekend…

RIP, Mother and MIL. The beast disguised as a man will get his. God Bless the Moats family.

You know what..the cop is young too, about 25. He needs to apologize and also be fired. Police should be courteous and respectful as well. I mean, the damn people were in the hospital parking lot. Race definitely played a part here, no doubt. Thank God, the civilians handled themselves as humbly as possible and did not become too irate, it made the officer look HORRIBLE! He needs to die, but suffer really long, lol straight up. WHat an A hole

This man ran a red light and had no proof of insurance. The officer did the right thing. Have your stuff up to date before you want leniency in breaking the law. The officer was right

I have to admit i hate cops; they scare me. some are as bad as criminals.

I truly want to know how often it happens someone runs a red light and when pulled over by a cop, he/she uses the excuse that he/she broke the law because a loved one is dying. I mean what kind of sick person lies about something like that? Racism will never end. I try to remain positive, but it is so hard sometimes. God bless this family.

THE OFFICER HAD EVERY RIGHT TO DRAW HIS GUN!!

If I saw a car run a red light, (didn’t stop) followed them down the road and they all start hopping out of the car crying and screaming I’d draw my gun too….White, Black, Mexican, Green doesn’t matter. I’m pretty sure that’s normal police protocol!

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 Jackass.

but once he realized the situation he should have let him go.

The police officer was inconsiderate and

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!!!

Divvajr…

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.

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 asses!

This is why when i get those calls to donate money to the local police stations i hang up..they dont deserve a dime..they are worthless pieces of crap who need to bring others down to make them feel confident..screw u
