Maxine Waters Intervenes When Police Detain Black Suspect


Rep. Maxine Waters was captured on video over the weekend after she confronted LAPD as they detained a black man. The action had the effect of making her a champion of the defund the police movement by the inference that cops must be eyed very closely.

Waters impeded a police investigation and should have gotten a ticket at minimum. The police have enough to worry about at any traffic stop without having people walking up to ‘check on them.’

The California Democrat was driving in her home district over the weekend when she parked her car and walked over to the L.A. County Sheriff patrol car, TMZ reported. “They stopped a brother so I stopped to see what they were doing,” Waters said on the video.

Waters said an officer told her she was parked illegally. “They said I’m in the wrong place and they’re going to give me a ticket. That’s OK as long as I watch them,” she continued.

In light of racial injustice and police brutality protests across the country, some left-wing activists have suggested ceasing routine traffic stops by police officers. Berkeley, Calif., moved forward with a proposal last week to eliminate police from conducting traffic stops and instead send unarmed civilian city workers.
