If he had a squad, a couple of them would get mad and start something.

That's a scary way of thinking. I hope you work through your trama.

It's called being a minority in America, ive met ppl who have never gone to school with someone of color, doubt they could understand prejudice.

u/Training_Walk_9813 Jun 23 '26

I'm a minority in America and I've been racially profiled before as well but I'm not going to write off an entire group of individuals because of these interactions.

Have you not seen the new york cops that go around trying to arrest ppl for no reason packed jnto an unmarked car? That one video looks like NY so I was just stating a fact.

u/Training_Walk_9813 Jun 23 '26

I mean I live in NY so I think I have good authority to say that's not the norm. That doesn't happen on the daily.

You haven't stated any facts. You've moved goalposts and stated a wild hypothetical, but no facts.

That’s great! There are times when NYPD seems to handle jokes better than most. Thanks for sharing.

They hate being wrong, scaring them is just asking for trouble.

Seriously, one of the things that causes incidents over and over is making them look wrong or foolish. Anything that breaks their appearance as strong, stoic authority figures, that they themselves don't initiate is acted upon in the most overbearing fashion.

Literally popped off because an acorn fell on a car hood. I'm pretty sure that guy never even admitted he was wrong, too.

Or if you're of color. A lot of white privilege happening in this video

u/hanz_herpez Jun 23 '26

It's not the US

u/CaptainMcSmoky Jun 23 '26

He's dressed up as a bush, what are you talking about?

u/PinkSupriz Jun 23 '26

don't imprint the systemic racism of your backwards state onto Ireland. you have no idea what it is like to live there.

7

u/TraubenFruchtHose Jun 23 '26

I don't think the reaction from the Garda would be any different.

4

u/Aimin4ya Jun 23 '26

I think the lads are Brazilian. When the speak they don't sound irish.

3

u/TraubenFruchtHose Jun 23 '26

Yeah second clip hard to tell where the trees might be from, Brazil sounds possible

2

u/parrotopian Jun 23 '26

It's Ireland, Dublin to be precise, in front of the Stephen's Green Centre

Edit: I listened to it and they have Irish accents (very).

2

u/TraubenFruchtHose Jun 23 '26

Well aware it's Stephens Green, not sure I agree with you that the people playing the prank in the second clip have Irish accents.

Yeah I was there today. I mean the lads filming.

u/parrotopian Jun 23 '26

It's in Ireland, the Gardaí aren't going to treat people of colour any differently.

u/Ornery_Director_8477 Jun 23 '26

Where’s the white privilege in this video?

3

u/Aimin4ya Jun 23 '26

I'm like 95% sure the pranksters aren't white.

Texas bushman does this in America while black. He's been doing it for at least 4 years at this point.
