Just because there's one alleged false claim of racist treatment by a single errant African-American, doesn't nullify the millions that have actually occurred throughout the years since their arrival here as African slaves.

Everyone here should already be aware of this fact...

Shame on you all!
He is far from the only one to be caught in a lie like this.

This guy holds multiple leadership positions in which people trust him and he alleges very serious abuses by the officer which are completely fabricated by the “reverend”. These false accusations happen all the time.

I don't believe anyone affiliated with the NAACP.

Identity politics has jumped the shark...... Democrats just don't know it yet.

Y'all had a good thing going, but you had to over play your hand.

America ain't buying it anymore.

I live in SC and never read or heard about the original tweet. I think the reason this story didn't go nationwide..nothing went viral. It was a nothing story.

LOL.

But the guy was stopped for not using a turn signal? Really?

WHAT? I wish that happened more often.

The tone of some of the posts in here are so angry. I know most Trump supporters don't like black people, but geez.

Yes, the actions of this one person seem disgusting and he was definitely wrong and should be held accountable for what he did. It ends there.

As a black dude, this kinda stuff just annoys me and doesn't help the black community at all when there are actual real cases of police brutality against blacks.


Dude didn't use a turn signal...which takes a flick of a finger. How is that "racist"? Just stupid.

It's not a Trump supporter thing, it's a morality thing.


And it's not just one person, but literally the NAACP LEADER. It's not just some random cat. IMO he should lose his position. It's just as bad as a girl claiming she was raped and gets someone arrested for years, when she lied and was just sitting at home when the "attack" occurred.

He honestly seemed a little slow to be a pastor and NAACP official but maybe they aren't too discriminating ( nice pun) where he lives. So he gets stopped by a polite officer who does nothing but try to help him by explaining to him that his registration needs to be updated. And he then tries to BS his way into getting some attention and publicity and tries to hurt the innocent officer in the process. He needs to be removed from both that church and that chapter because he's a disgrace to both. What a POS, he needs to have the stupid racism knocked out of his empty noggin.
Now thanks to that fool the next time a real racism involved incident happens people will wonder if its real or just lies.
