Publish date:A traffic stop in April involving Georgia police officers left some Delaware State women’s lacrosse team members traumatized and the school president “incensed.”who wrote about the encounter for the school’s newspaper
, the team was traveling through the state on April 20, returning home after a game against Stetson University. Police stopped their charter bus and claimed the bus had committed a traffic violation. But then, police began going through the players’ luggage, claiming to be looking for narcotics. “To be clear, nothing illegal was discovered in this search, and all our coaches and student-athletes comported themselves with dignity throughout a trying and humiliating process,” university president Tony Allen said in a statement. “Our student-athletes, coaches, and the subcontracted bus driver are all safe.
. “If there is something in there that is questionable, please tell me now because if we find it, guess what? We’re not gonna be able to help.” The officer then reminded the team that marijuana is still illegal in the state of Georgia, including electronic devices. The officer also said they were looking for anything that could weigh it “like a set of scales.” According to Anderson, the team said they did not have any narcotics, but the officers still decided to check their baggage and instructed Jones to open the bus’s trunk.
I bet if it said Duke Lacrosse on the side of the bus, they would not have been pulled over.
Nearly 108,000 Americans died of drug overdoses in 2021 and these cops are looking for joints in gym bags!! This is nothing less than racially motivated harassment and intimidation.
This has to stop
Well that’s illegal…..even here in Canada 👎🏽👎🏽🇨🇦🇨🇦

Georgia Officers Accused of Racially Profiling DSU Lacrosse TeamMembers of a Georgia Sheriff’s Department are accused of racially profiling Delaware State University’s lacrosse team last month. Now the president of the historically black university is demanding answers and considering possible legal action. tfurlong This is NOT a made up story, my daughter was on this bus, these are amazing scholar athletes on a division 1 lacrosse team. They are wonderful young women who did not deserve this treatment whatsoever! tfurlong Some questions… was it visible to the police the racial makeup of the occupants of the bus prior to initiating the traffic stop? If it wasn’t, the stop sounds legit as it’s illegal in GA for trucks to be in the left lane unless they are actively overtaking a slower vehicle. tfurlong libertycounty 👀 this is your finest? Look like a bunch of DA country boys to me

Ga. officials say DSU traffic stop was legal after team alleges racial profilingAuthorities in Georgia responded to allegations of racial profiling during a traffic stop involving the Delaware State University women's lacrosse team. Nobody said the stop wasn’t legal. It’s what they did after the stop that was egregious. Even if it was all legal. I think the local sheriff is a bozo and this search was profiling !! Racist south at it again

Alabama law criminalizing gender transition surgery, drugs for minors takes effectAn Alabama makes it a felony to provide hormone blockers or transition surgery to minors. Government playing the role of parents. How come the government can rule on this? This is clearly a decision for parents to make and not the state. What is this? Taking full control of its citizens? Believers of 'small government' showing their whole ass (yet again)
