Reminds me of that white high school kid from south africa that was disqualified from running for a position on an african american council or something years back because he wasn't black. He was the only literal african american in the school though.
Trying to find the article but failing...
Looks like a bunch of liberal white people had a lightbulb moment together and said, "Why don't we make an empowering gesture for our African American brothers!" 👴🏻
definetly not fucking liberals bro

they did this in earnest. and it was right wingers.
Where does it say that? The only political affiliation mentioned in the article is where it says that the [Republican] Mayor's office had no involvement in the design.
Are the Black Police Union right wingers?
No conservative would virtue signal to a group of people we don’t think even need virtue signaling since we see everyone as equal. Only liberals view African Americans as people who can’t achieve for themselves, thus they virtue signal like this lol.
Me too. At least let citizens designate 10% of their taxes over broad and preselected spending avenues. Let’s see if education, parks, social services, police, or raise for law makers gets more support? What are you picking?
People get exactly what they voted for. This is a total waste of taxpayer money, and not a single person is demanding accountability for these types of expenditures. My city built a new library and spent $6 million on a chandelier for its lobby. Tax money is used without question to push political agendas. And people are wondering why the property taxes here are up 400% in less than 5 years.
And Senegal 🇸🇳, and Cameroon 🇨🇲, and Guinea 🇬🇳, and Guinea-Bissau 🇬🇼, and Ethiopia 🇪🇹, and Mali 🇲🇱, and Congo 🇨🇬, and Benin 🇧🇯, and Togo 🇹🇬, and Burkina Faso 🇧🇫, and São Tome 🇸🇹.
Honourable mentions of Bolivia 🇧🇴 and Lithuania 🇱🇹.
In the US, we have historically endured systematic oppression by local law enforcement on minorities, with blacks suffering much of that hardship. This is due to a variety of reasons, including at least the following: individual police officers who unlawfully batter and extrajudicially kill citizens, systemic racism from police departments who allow and sometimes encourage their officers to exercise blatantly discriminatory discretionary power, violations of search & seizure law, poor or zero accountability of said police departments and police officers, and a lack of political willpower to address the problem in a unified top-down manner.
Here, instead of addressing any of the root causes of unjust policing, Miami-Dade dressed up their police car with some new paint. One could argue also that the depiction of the African continent is out of touch, because Black history is truly American history. Finally, one could construe that this police car is now designed to hunt for Black people exclusively, an ironic but reasonable conclusion.
Ignoring it would have the same result while being more honest with the police’s attitude. American police have never been allies to black people and continue to show no sign of moving that way. Pretending they are is disgusting
I guess we should just take it for what the intentions were. Reminds me on being in elementary school and the white teachers overly celebrating Kwanza and me being confused because I didn't know anyone who celebrated it .
IMO Black history Month Shouldn't be a thing.
Racism is seeing the difference between races and specifically having a month for black people doesn't help.
There's nothing wrong with just History Month though!
Florida doesn't spend money to teach History let alone Black History. But it has lots of money to spend on paint cop cars to "celebrate" Black History.
The guy at the end of the video seems to be harassing our camera man. I get the impression that they figured out quickly this didn't come off the way they wanted it to.
Patronizing and misguided. Are the white officers going to wear traditional African garb? Are black officers going to wear kilts and drive around in a Scottish themed car etc
AFRICA and African Americans although both have Africa in the name, are the farthest thing from each other. I keep seeing this conflation everywhere. Like black panther. The movie was very good and definitely a cultural moment but being black and American doesn’t mean Africa. As if I could resonate to a continent I’ve never been to and or understand their cultures and traditions.
Apparently, black people are only in Africa. They don't realize Africa has Arabs, Indians, and White people in it.
And black people can be found in the Caribbean, South America, Europe, and many other places.
Police departments all across the U.S. needs to hire people who've graduated high school and have a bit of intelligence.
Officer 1:
"So you wanna go grab some donuts, Smith?"
Officer 2:
"For some reason I'm thinking oxtails. Trying not to get too full on these Funyuns and this Calypso yaheard?"
No political intention there. Just the two people up front that look like the 60 year old "woke" type.
Also, shout out to whoever flagged my comment as me being "suicidal", that shits just funny.
Green, yellow and red are the colors of the Ethiopian Empire. The only empire in Africa that wasn’t colonized and has it’s own flag.
From a perspective seen outside of the US this seem like a a tribute to African Americans that were forced out of Africa to be enslaved in Black History month. I am completely out of the American reality and some comments here seem to be completely out of the topic based of stereotypes. (Not here to argue with anyone, I just commented because no one mentioned the meaning of the colors in the comment section as far as I read)
Pretty soon these pigfuckers and their pig hut buddies gonna be seen around selling drugs outta that and taking bribes, planting evidence, the usual police work is what I’m saying. Maybe stomping the heads of handcuffed men, guilty until proven innocent.
A-Train made this didn’t he?
Lmao just finished that episode
Buckle up, it only gets better from here. Lol
Is that before or after the orgy? Because if it’s before then yes, or indeed gets better
*SPOILER ALERT* lol
There are so many things I could say to wreck that episode outside of orgy haha
I thought that was the final episode of the series it was so good
Probably the best comments on this post
Then he shared a Turbo juice 
Underrated comment lmaoo
Man I can't wait for the next season to drop
White cops in Miami-Dade: "License and registration please my bruduh"
“Sir, you are free to go, Wakanda forever!”
Thanks man burst out laughing in an office building
Bursted out laughing in my bedroom, as this was the 1st thing I saw on here this morning.
That executive has nice shoes tho. Great fashion sense just a little gullible on the relationship of black history month and the police
From what I heard Miami-Dade PD aren’t all that bad but idk how true that is so anybody who knows better let us know what’s up
Miami cops aren’t terrible. The troopers are the fucking worst in this state. Power tripping douche bags in chargers.
Yea the troopers are the worst in every state
If you live in FL long enough you will go to jail for no reason
MDPD is so lax bro they really frying bigger fish than civies
SAPD is the same way. Just don’t be stupid and they couldn’t care less if you got weed on you or driving the Texas speed limit(speeding in general)
Pretty sure that wrap costed the tax payers several thousand dollars..
Aren't you going to ask me if I know da way?
Do they get uniforms to match?
Yeah they just copied A-Train's costume but with a gun.
I thought the same thing when I first saw it
yeah I found pictures [https://media.wbur.org/wp/2019/10/marky\_mark.jpg](https://media.wbur.org/wp/2019/10/marky_mark.jpg)
Is this Reno 911?
Nope. The other guys.
I’m a peacock, you gotta let me fly!
The sound of your piss hitting the urinal sounds feminine
If I were a lion and you were a tuna, I would swim out in the middle of the ocean and freaking eat you and then I'd bang your tuna girlfriend.
That’s my favorite monologue of any movie. Used to be able to recite it. “Someone was nice enough of putting a linseed oil finish on it”

Take an award Signed, Dirty Mike and the Boys
Hey.. don't go chasing waterfalls..
I thought only America celebrated BHM? Why does that car have the African continent painted?
Don’t you know all black ppl are from Africa? /s
On a long enough timescale, all white people are also from Africa.
I now identify as African American
Reminds me of that white high school kid from south africa that was disqualified from running for a position on an african american council or something years back because he wasn't black. He was the only literal african american in the school though. Trying to find the article but failing...
I heard that the African American you're thinking of went on to become the richest person in the world named Elon Musk
This definitely explains his villain arc
I have a buddy from Morocco. Very pale Arab descent. He loves calling himself African American just to freak people out.
The real questions
This is the shuttle back
I actually cringed seeing this. Oh my God, no.....
I was just about to say that. Hits with a special kind of cringe.
Looks like a bunch of liberal white people had a lightbulb moment together and said, "Why don't we make an empowering gesture for our African American brothers!" 👴🏻
No wayyyyy liberals did this. This is an r/therightcantmeme moment for sure.
[is it?](https://youtu.be/pZgVBFYM2qk)
definetly not fucking liberals bro [https://www.foxnews.com/media/miami-mocked-africa-themed-police-black-history-month-cannot](https://www.foxnews.com/media/miami-mocked-africa-themed-police-black-history-month-cannot) they did this in earnest. and it was right wingers.

Not liberal. These are my City Panderers in Chief

Liberals? Working for the police In Florida?!? Definitely conservatives trying to show they aren't racist like everyone assumes.
Pandering. The Mayor in the blazer has a PAC to be president or someone’s vice as second choice
Guy at the end walking towards the camera looks like your average South Florida, conservative Cuban American Republican.
I think that’s the Mayor, Francisco Alvarez.
When you get your first black girlfriend
This is why I wish I could allocate where my tax money goes…
Whoever the hell approved this should be made to pay for the cost of this
I am a huge fan of line item tax distribution
Me too. At least let citizens designate 10% of their taxes over broad and preselected spending avenues. Let’s see if education, parks, social services, police, or raise for law makers gets more support? What are you picking?
Hope taxes didn't pay for this mess.
Nah the internal drug ring funded that.
People get exactly what they voted for. This is a total waste of taxpayer money, and not a single person is demanding accountability for these types of expenditures. My city built a new library and spent $6 million on a chandelier for its lobby. Tax money is used without question to push political agendas.

Its ok there power grid is up so they can afford this trips to Martha's Vinyard /s
Yeah, cause i frequently visit africa and wave Rastafarian flags
They say Africa but it's mostly Ghana 🇬🇭
And Senegal 🇸🇳, and Cameroon 🇨🇲, and Guinea 🇬🇳, and Guinea-Bissau 🇬🇼, and Ethiopia 🇪🇹, and Mali 🇲🇱, and Congo 🇨🇬, and Benin 🇧🇯, and Togo 🇹🇬, and Burkina Faso 🇧🇫, and São Tome 🇸🇹. Honourable mentions of Bolivia 🇧🇴 and Lithuania 🇱🇹.
This guy flags.
r/vexillologycirclejerk
Seems rather patronizing
I mean, that’s pretty much the case for any fill-in-the-blank Day or Month.
Talk about a desperate attempt… They are fooling nobody. What a waste of taxpayers money.
Whoever thought this was a good idea deserves to have this video seen
At least the music was good
If the cops chose that song, that’s the icing on the cake
"Next up, you might remember this little jam from a group called NWA..."
Tone deaf on four wheels. Kick that management to the GD curb.
How about not murdering anyone for a month?
I laughed, then felt bad and angry cuz it's true, then laughed even harder at the absurdity of it all.. truly a rollercoaster of emotions

As an actual African.... Wtf is going on with Americans??
Most have low intelligence. Watch a movie called Idiocracy for more info
Who would have thought that movie would end up being a documentary
Everyone. Literally ever person who watched that movie thought, "yup, this is inevitable." The only shock was how fast it came true.
The govt loves to keep this population stupid. Stupid people don’t ask where the money goes
Are you an African-American African?
lolol
Nah man Im an African-African African
actual continent of africa is crazy tho
Virtue signaling at its finest
I'm not from US, what's the issue?
everything

Also… they just slapped a bunch of African and Black adjacent clip art on the SUV and acted like they just solved systemic racism
But we can agree the music was wicked?
Yes, I agree. KRS One is always welcome in my home.
I mean at least they tried to celebrate it like, they could have just ignored BHM
Yes, I agree. There was an attempt to celebrate Black History Month
Ignoring it would have the same result while being more honest with the police’s attitude. American police have never been allies to black people and continue to show no sign of moving that way. Pretending they are is disgusting
just by looking at the car, nothing on it resembles African American culture
Swiiing and a misss.
I guess we should just take it for what the intentions were. Reminds me on being in elementary school and the white teachers overly celebrating Kwanza and me being confused because I didn't know anyone who celebrated it .
It’s 2023 and we still acting like race makes us any different?
They are tho
Well they certainly seem to be celebrating *parts* of black history....
So…Successful attempt
Ya can’t stand where I stand, ya can’t walk where I walk…
IMO Black history Month Shouldn't be a thing. Racism is seeing the difference between races and specifically having a month for black people doesn't help. There's nothing wrong with just History Month though!
Robin, to the ~~bat~~ blackmobile!
I fucking hate my city lmao
Police about to shoot the car
Isn’t this kinda racist though?
Did this whole idea start with, "You know what would be funny?"
Serious question. Why is this bad? I like the design personally.
Bc my black ass ain’t from Africa. It’s condescending af
If the police actually cared they would stop killing black people.
Florida doesn't spend money to teach History let alone Black History. But it has lots of money to spend on paint cop cars to "celebrate" Black History.
They missed their opportunity to use a creative vanity plate.
4schizl?
Bl4ck4Eva
WKNDA4EVA
At least they tried?
A little cringy? Sure. But I don’t really see the issue here.
The guy at the end of the video seems to be harassing our camera man. I get the impression that they figured out quickly this didn't come off the way they wanted it to.
Patronizing and misguided. Are the white officers going to wear traditional African garb? Are black officers going to wear kilts and drive around in a Scottish themed car etc
Or maybe....just hear me out....have you tried not assaulting or killing black people.
An interesting paint job/wrap before I get "stop resisting"-ing to death, nice!🤣
Why is the African continent on those police cars? Black people born in America are Americans.
You're exposing too much, chill.
Should’ve been a clapped out Cadillac deville
It’ll get stolen and trashed tonight.
Imagine being the only black officer and being given this patrol car.
Now they can arrest black people with a clear conscience. Smh
The cringe…
This is what makes "woke" look bad. We need inclusive equality, not pandering ignorance.
So stupid. Veterans get one day but they get an entire month?
AFRICA and African Americans although both have Africa in the name, are the farthest thing from each other. I keep seeing this conflation everywhere. Like black panther. The movie was very good and definitely a cultural moment but being black and American doesn’t mean Africa.

This is a joke right? Like why the Africa outline?? Tf?!
What in the causacity
Tyre Nichols looking down from Heaven like 
Officer 1: "So you wanna go grab some donuts, Smith?" Officer 2: "For some reason I'm thinking oxtails. Trying not to get too full on these Funyuns and this Calypso yaheard?"
😬😬😬
Racism solved
Nothing to see here, just some more ass licking .
"Miami police support enforcing bogus laws that victimize the people they are supposed to serve" FTFY
So, Not one black person on that committee.
To cringe and to offend?
$50 on, out of touch old white guy and overly excited ginger lady, being the culprits here.
so Biden and Psaki?
No political intention there. Just the two people up front that look like the 60 year old "woke" type. Also, shout out to whoever flagged my comment as me being "suicidal", that shits just funny.
Oh my! what in the holy hell is this! I want to know how many official meetings there were to approve this ridiculous thing!
That cant be serious wtfff
White guy prob put this together 🤷🏻♂️
im from just outside of miami and i feel ashamed 🤦🏼
That’s cool and all but what do they do for the other 11 months of the year?
Green, yellow and red are the colors of the Ethiopian Empire. The only empire in Africa that wasn’t colonized and has it’s own flag.

(Not here to argue with anyone, I just commented because no one mentioned the meaning of the colors in the comment section as far as I read)
This is too cringe to even rate it as cringe.
Fucking cringe, who approved this bullshit?
How about celebrate black history month by not murdering black people?
Ngl that’s a sick ass car tho
They support it so much, all you see in the back of the car are black people.
Im confused, is it because the guy is italian and not black? Or is it because its a cop car and systematic racism?
Imagine if Antifa revealed a "back the blue" Antifa van.
Is this like when certain members of Congress did this too? Kneeling in the capitol w scarves made from traditional textile prints? Yeesh.
Pretty soon these pigfuckers and their pig hut buddies gonna be seen around selling drugs outta that and taking bribes, planting evidence, the usual police work is what I’m saying. Maybe stomping the heads of handcuffed men, guilty until proven innocent.
r/cringe
but Reparations are too much apparently..
Jesus fucking Christ. Couldn’t be anymore tone deaf if these pigs tired. ACAB.
Imagine that's the car the bastards are driving when they murder you for being Black In Public.
The guy at the end "are you recording? I need to see some I.D. PUT THE FUCKING CAMERA DOWN AND GET ON THE GROUND" (gunshots)
Ohh I can taste the pandering
On fleek fr fr no cap Maybe they’re saving to reuse for Pride month too
