I've already said on this post numerous times that I do not believe the officers involved are racist. During the traffic stop they remain professional and courteous despite the fact that she was antagonizing them. She was driving a car with no tags and refusing to show ID so she was pretty much asking to go to jail. They ended up letting her go with a citation, and ended up having to kill her later that day. They should have arrested her when they had the chance

Especially if she was black.... I don't know, and it doesn't matter to me, but if they had arrested her, it would have been "another example of the police unjustly profiling and targeting a poor black mother.... if she had been white, they would have let her go with a warning!"
Suicide by cop is a VERY common occurrence, and unfortunately is almost impossible to predict, or to stop once it's in motion.

Either you're just trolling or you're missing the point. It was immediately apparent during the initial traffic stop that they were dealing with someone who was mentally unstable. Being that she was refusing to show ID, they would have had just cause to arrest her. Also she was behaving in a menacing and threatening manner. If the officer had arrested her during the initial confrontation, then second altercation that day could have been avoided. I don't understand why no one sees this
Well Dude, what if Sandra Bland had been let go and then later had to be shot?
She was pulled over for failing to signal, refused to obey a police officer's order, and was then arrested. I recall you being very displeased about this. But she showed strong evidence of mental illness, was non-compliant and combative, and was arrested. I think police officers need to use better judgement in a lot of cases, but you seem to have them in a lose-lose type of situation.
If officers arrested every person who acted like they were mentally unhinged, there would be almost no people left on the streets after three or four weeks. The way I see people acting on most of these videos floating around... people you often say are just expressing their "rights"... I, myself, just might go ahead and shoot them for being idiots.

We all can say they should have did this or did that. It is so easy to sit back and criticize people after the fact. There are so many things that are at play when an officer pulls someone over. I know where I live many times we don't have room in the jail for some people, so the officer gives them a warning or something like that. In smaller cities a DUS would be cause to arrest someone but in larger ones they give them a court date. We need to stop doing this blame game and get on with our lives.
The only fact we know is this person didn't comply with the officers orders and the tragic end result was the loss of life.
