No reason to spit on anyone. That is reason to shoot someone.

This shit needs to stop. Hold these vile people responsible. Special probation….BULLSHIT. 🤬

Privilege. White. Woman.

I wonder where these “programs” are when black folks commit these crimes….

I'm a chunky, middle aged white dude and even I'm like, 'Sounds about white.' No black woman would ever get this kind of deal.

White justice. Wrong.

It ALWAYS comes back to white privilege. 🤬

I heard that Critical Race Theory made the woman spit on the other woman. 🙄

Sounds about white.

Smh

Our judicial system is broken

Do they offer this kind of plea to all people who act like this? Waiting for the stats… ☹️

I thought diversion programs were a good thing.

Oh F🤬CK NO!!!

IF ANYONE SPIT ON ME, THEY BETTER HAVE LIFE INSURANCE

Privilege?

That white woman must of been Democrat.

Well, of course she was. But if the situation were reversed, the Black lady would be in jail right now.
