Chris Rock Pulled Over For Being Black
[su_publirb]
Rock star comedian Chris Rock was pulled over by police Tuesday, the third time in less than two months the “Top Five” actor’s been stopped, according to his social media posts.
“Stopped by the cops again wish me luck,” Rock tweeted, along with a photo of himself in a car with a blue police light shining behind him.
The 50-year-old funnyman tweeted similar photos on Feb. 27 (“I’m not even driving stop by the cops again,” he wrote) and Feb. 13.

The smartphone is going to force police to finally do the job they say they are doing.
Today there are eyes everywhere, but now they see the cops just as much as the rest of us. Keep it going Chris.

Cogent as ever. See a bit of lighthearted fun gets met with such violence. You should have a chai tea and just cool out. I never asked you to die now did I?

Whether you like his humor or not, Chris Rock is one of the most accomplished comedians on the planet.
Here is one line as he commented back in 2008 about the Democratic Presidential primary where the top candidates were Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama
”George Bush f*cked up so bad, a white man can’t even be President anymore”
If you don’t think that is hysterical, I guess we will agree to disagree on Rock’s comedic abilities. Personally I think it is one of the funniest lines I have ever heard.

I find him to be obnoxious and a smartass ..not funny..IMO ..

I have never found racism of any kind to be hilarious.
“Barack Obama f*cked up so bad, a black man can’t even be President anymore”. Is that funny? Of course not. If the line does not fit for any race, don’t express it.
Now about this poorly written “article”. Was there probable cause? Let’s hear about the specifics so the public can decide if this is a series of racist incidents or are we supposed to just trust alan in his assessment of what happened?
Let’s talk race.
And whatever happened to professional journalism?

Okay. Thanks. The relevant part of my statement still exists. Racism. It’s not funny.

One of his funniest:
.
“Why is it that, when somebody turns up dead, they always suspect the spouse first? Instead of saying “I now pronounce you man and wife” at a wedding ceremony, I think the preacher should say “I now pronounce you ‘persons of interest’ “.

Chris Rock is obviously badgering the police. He knew darn well that the cops would never have pulled him over if he wasn’t driving while being black. This malicious form of baiting should NOT be tolerated by the PD, and the courts should throw the book at him!
tpartynitwit April 1st, 2015 at 3:36 pm
He purchased a nice, tasteful car with a beautiful, clean sunroof knowing cops would naturally assume it wasn’t his. Entrapment!
Bunya April 1st, 2015 at 3:46 pm
I never thought of that. Another good reason he should be locked up.
tpartynitwit April 1st, 2015 at 4:39 pm
Just look at that hat! This guy is a menace!
fahvel April 2nd, 2015 at 3:37 am
hey hey, the hat is absolutely great.
viva_democracy April 1st, 2015 at 4:06 pm
Black man in a nice car. Yup. Cops hate that.
Warman1138 April 1st, 2015 at 8:52 pm
This just makes for a sad day in America and another day innocent people have to experience fear because of their birthright.
MR. RIGHT April 1st, 2015 at 11:23 pm
He made the decision to drive, and that’s the police’s fault?
If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.
fahvel April 2nd, 2015 at 3:36 am
i would have stopped him just to find out where he bought the cool hat.
Jewmonster April 2nd, 2015 at 6:49 am
Maybe if he’d stop breaking traffic laws he’d …. stop getting pulled over?
OldLefty April 2nd, 2015 at 7:17 am
Or at least stop being black.
greenfloyd April 2nd, 2015 at 11:35 pm
LA Times: The Washington Post, citing Department of Justice data for 2011, said black drivers are about 23% more likely than white drivers to be pulled over, and about three times as likely to be searched after a stop. A smaller percentage of black drivers than white drivers are pulled over for speeding, but black motorists are more likely to be stopped because of a “vehicle defect,” to check a record or for other unspecified reasons, the newspaper said.

This guy is so funny, and genuine. I don’t think he has a mean bone in his body. I especially loved his bit for the BET awards, check it out on Gwaker
