- Jacksonville’s enforcement of pedestrian violations raises concerns about another example of racial profiling: propub.li/2hCCBaE
After watching a viral video of a Jacksonville cop stopping a young black man for jaywalking, reporters Ben Conarck and Topher Sanders examine how “walking while black” can come at a high price. In this second piece of the Vox + ProPublica collaboration, they dig into how police citations for pedestrian violations often fall along the lines of race and poverty, and introduce us to some of the people fighting these tickets.

At 3:53, we stated the black population of Jacksonville is 30%. In fact, according to ProPublica’s latest methodology, it’s 29.4%. And at 5:26, we state there were 387 tickets given for walking in the roadway where sidewalks are provided. That number should be updated to 386.

Respect! Down to the last digit!

They may not realise it, but they were mocking the cop for doing a job that they perceive as being ridiculous. How do you feel when people mock you for doing something you feel passionate about?
JonnyNice No they weren't. Put yourself in their shoes. Of course it is going to feel absurd to be threatened with jail time or a 62$ ticket for doing something mostly harmless and what people have been doing before you and will continue doing without any consequences.
+JonnyNIce, having his feelings hurt isn't a terribly good reason for an officer to be threatening jail time to members of his community.
JonnyNice the officer threatened to give the guy jail time which he legally cannot even do he was obviously acting out of anger which police officers should not do. Somebody who is trained to enforce the law and use weapons should be able to control their temper and be reasonable.

It's a fishing expiration done to whites and blacks. Just like the old I smell the odor and now can search your car. NEVER answer questions and accept your ticket violation to fight later. The more you talk the or answer is giving them just what they want. The want to keep you talking to find out more info and entrap you legally.

This episode made me think. I am 59 years old. I graduated from high school and went to junior college. I had a commercial driver's license. I was even a Marine. At no time in my education did anyone ever inform me of my pedestrian responsibilities. So how is enyone supposed to know the laws?

It’s not.
@Michael you think what the cops did was right?
@Michael How can you prove someone or an organization to be racist? What is sufficient evidence for you? Do they have to come out by having it in writing with a lawyer and atleast two witnesses and explicitly say that they were racist in a public place in order for an act to be considered racist? And let's pretend they weren't racist. What those cops did was still wrong.
Wow, I'm tired of these arrogant cops. How fast he threatened him to go to jail too. That is so outrageous.
I had to go to court for jaywalking when I was 12. When I got to the court the judge laughed because he couldnt believe that out of a group of 5 adults and myself I was the only one given a ticket. The judge tore the ticket and said have a good day.

"It's a $65 ticket, get in my car, you're detained, you're going to jail."
for $65?
And for real, even if it is the law that the cop can write a 65 dollar ticket for jaywalking, no rational or professional cop would actually do such a thing. The only cops who enforce such miniscule laws are racist cops.

@@jwjeffrey Yeah that's definitely not how the law works. Police are only supposed to use deadly force if they perceive a threat to their life, the life of an innocent civilian, or they believe said threat could escape their grasp. Jaywalking is a misdemeanor, like speeding, that isn't supposed to be met with murder. That's the whole point of the eighth amendment. Judges who think like that are corrupt and should be exposed and punished.
Exactly! Common sense! Why does everything have to be complicated?

Zokizzy Foshizzy the laws the law. Instead of complaining about being caught breaking it, follow it and make a fortune when a cop actually harasses you for no reason.

trey Eason never been caught, who hasn't broken laws. I simply said not to complain about harassment when they legitimately got caught.
Their mindset is that the law doesnt apply cause they think it's stupid, so they blatantly break it right in front of the cops and then whine and claim racism, when you literally make them do their job, inflating the statistics against your group.

In some European nations it is a legal requirement to always possess an ID when outside of oneself's property.

Roke Beedell yes but no one really gets a ticket for that because people normally don’t get controlled for nothing and even if there is a reason for a control, u probably don’t get a ticket if u don’t have ur id on u. just if u meet a cop that has a bad day then there is a chance u can get a ticket for not having ur id - at least it’s like this in Germany
I’d like that
You can have a picture of the ID in your phone if you can't possess it (small pockets or so) . It can save you from a ticket but if you did something illegal , then the photo is useless (may be photoshopped).

I love his line, “you want me to walk around with no shirt, then imma look more suspicious” 🤣🤣🤣🤣I laughed so hard.
evangelina grey its so sad...
not funny
ikr i know another story of a black kid getting arrested for having no shirt on.
It’s like a part of America never got out of the 60’s
"and - what are you are in for?"
"I walked a red light."
yeah, you did do something illegal
“you, crossed the crossWALK”
im dead
Jamari Young you could be if you’re not carful around cops
He meant "you, were born BLACK!"
Black man: Exsists
Police officer: Wait that's illegal
Exsists
endurs yeah I dont really care tbh
Exsists
It Exists Smh
Ho-Chi-Sock you do care and the fact that you don’t want to edit your comment to prove your point that you don’t care is sad
How many people saw this building 00:20 and immediately knew it was Jacksonville 🤣 🖐️
Jacksonville police department should be embarrassed to have a cop with tyrannical behavior for walking 🚶♀️ unbelievable 😳
Ok, that cop woule arrest all of France because EVERYONE crosses the street when there is no car in sight. Even if the light is red.
Everyone in Europe literally. I don't think anyone waits for it to turn green in London
@Darrell Williams that's cool, it's just odd to me that it's even criminalised at all
NY too. Honestly, if you cross the street at light you're definitely a tourist
Here in Czech Republic cops actually give tickets for people crossing the street.
Try stopping for a red light on a bicycle in Amsterdam. That will get you into trouble for sure...
Well, the City is safer now that two jaywalkers have been dealt with.
Best comment😂😂😂
Yeh the menace to society are the least of the issue.
Yeah, it has declined by more than 20% and has made the community center
@Tskissme22 jajaja wuv ur comment
Imagine how many people are getting angry because they got a ticket,,,, for walking.
If it was really about jaywalking, the LEO would've simply issued the ticket and been off. This was harassment. Glorified stop & frisk.
And people wanna talk about criminals, instead of ACTUAL police corruption.
Actually when we talk about criminals we are talking about corrupt cops, among others, since police corruption is a crime. So let's put them in the category they belong in. With other criminals.
Leonard Wolf true.
The people talking about criminals instead of police corruption on this channel are the police and family members of the corrupt police. They think they are above the law.
Oooooh, Jaywalking. Who doesn’t do that? And while the cop is having a temper tantrum, that drug dealer, two streets down, just made 50K
Lol true
Hes stopping them for jaywalking because that's the best way to catch drug dealers? Why is that so hard to understand. Why is it so controversial to admit that a majority of drug dealers are black and live in the hood? So they do "random" stops in the areas of town notorious for drug dealing, and a majority of the people in those areas are black. Its common sense, yet people take that as some shining example of how horribly racist American police are. They're just trying to prevent crime before it happens. They wouldnt have to be so aggressive if America didnt have some of the highest rates of crime in the first world.
Mc fradoogle uh..what was the point of that rant? My point was, was that the cop took way to long dealing with that guy over something so minor. Whereas they could’ve spent their time doing something more important.
Don't worry that cop is going to shake down the drug dealer for his money later tonight.
@@jamesnevius2276 random stops ate wrong no matter what race, stop accepting such blatant violations of rights
Man, we can't even take a simple walk down the street without being criticized for doing something "illegal"
man, do I like US's tactics, "we acknowledge we abuse human rights, we're sorry, but we ain't gonna do anything about it"
Why is wearing a hoodie deemed as “looking suspicious “? When the priest puts on his collar, that doesn’t look suspicious but we know many of them have committed real crimes against children.
Oh dang
@@evawoodcock6392 like brvh😥
Lol nice
I think wearing a cop uniform makes you look very suspicious, with all the nasty stuff cops have been doing.
I wear hoodies in 80 degree weather. A lot of the time, i regret it yes lol. But that is not a reason to stop someone.
I legit didn’t even know it was illegal to jaywalk in Florida. Everyone jaywalks without a second thought here.
That's the point Vox is trying to get across, and the point every racist in the comment keeps missing.
MyriadCharm pety a crime as it is, it's still illegal. Just because person is black, it's deemed racist. That's not fair.
Nom Nom White peopl wanna be a victim too so yeah its not fair :'(
Jesus, not knowing the law is not a defense. What does racism have to do with this?
I've never seen anyone ever get a jay walking ticket in my life. Happens in front of cops everywhere here... not really enforced in Iowa.
I got fined for crossing on red light once. Nothing weird there
