I guess they could still try to get him for drinking alcohol in public and reckless driving, though.

Sounds like A-hole cops busting his ass just to be dicks.

Just saying if youre poor the facts of the case are irrelevant. They force you to plead out with false claims of “disorderly” “resisting” and so on. Your BAC isn’t going to matter when you’re a broke nobody in the county lock up with a public defender who’s going over to the judge’s house for BBQ after the sentencing.

Plus, the obsession with coming up with the exact number at the end of a math problem instead of demonstrating an ability to understand the process is from what I’ve seen an almost uniquely American way to teach mathematics. They don’t obsess over the final number in Korea or Japan the way American teachers do. And it’s not like American teachers don’t represent a classist white hegemony.

This is a typical case of some dip**** journalist writing about **** they know nothing about and presenting it in a way that makes it look like liberal lunacy.

It's Oregan. I'm sure even the math is racist.

Nobody hates blacks more than other blacks. Black women be throwing that pussy up at rich black guys and they’re like nope, whites only please.

Oregon math is fine with black people as long as they don’t insist on actually moving into the neighborhood. That’s the entire west coast. All the STEM related fields and subjects are white supremacists. Just check the demographics of Silicon Valley if you don’t believe it.
