    White guy avi

    🙄

    Was waiting in line to contest a ticket for dismal at one of the tiny micro-cities inside Houston. Kid you not, it was just a bunch of white folks walking out no-contest and another line of AAs getting filed up to actually try their cases.

    I’m sure this was a coincidence. Also, the sheriff looking interchangeable with the Sheriff Rosco from Dukes of Hazzard, a pure coincidence.

      That might be true. But it’s important to note that we want the world to be more kind to everyone, and not universally unforgiving.

      Yeah this looks like a written appeal so not sure what race has to do with it. Also this is a parking fine, not a moving violation, which it sounds like you’re describing

        If the appeal has a name on it then there could still be bias. Somewhat related: I heard job applications still got biased reviews with names redacted because the contents were culturally specific enough.
