Woman's Reason Why Police Shouldn't Arrest Her For Drunk Driving Is White Privilege At Its Finest

During the first week of August 2018, 32-year-old Lauren Elizabeth Cutshaw was pulled over after driving through a 4-way intersection at 60 mph, roughly double the speed limit in that area, around 1:45am. When approached by the officers, she gave them several unusual reasons why she should not be arrested.


Cutshaw reportedly tried to talk her way out of an arrest by saying "she had 'perfect grades her entire life,' had been a cheerleader, was in the National Honors Society, had attended a 'high accredited university,' and that her partner is also a police officer."






Perhaps most offensively, Cutshaw also told the arresting officers she was a "very clean, thoroughbred, white girl," and "I'm a white, clean girl." When the cops asked Cutshaw what that had to do with anything, she responded:

You're a cop, you should know what that means.





The police immediately suspected Cutshaw was intoxicated due to the smell of alcohol in her car. She told them she had had two glasses of wine with dinner. They asked her how big the glasses were, and she responded:

I mean, I was celebrating my birthday.



A breathalyzer test quickly revealed Cutshaw's blood alcohol level to be at 0.18 percent, more than double the legal limit in South Carolina. Her efforts to resist arrest were recorded and will most likely be used against her in court, according to the arresting officer:

Making statements such as these as a means to justify not being arrested are unusual in my experience as a law enforcement officer and I believe further demonstrate the suspect's level of intoxication.



Cutshaw was charged with "driving under the influence, speeding, disregarding a stop sign, possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia," and is currently being held at Beaufort County Detention Center.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.

State Department Slammed After Requiring Visa Applicants To Make All Social Media Posts Public For Vetting

The State Department is facing harsh criticism after it announced that anyone applying for an F, M, or J nonimmigrant visa will need to disclose all social media profiles from the last five years, requiring that all applicants set their posts to public so they can be properly vetted by its agents.

The agency said the new rules are part of a new screening process aimed at identifying individuals who may pose a threat to U.S. national security. According to the department, failure to comply could result in a denial, and consular officers have been instructed to flag signs of “hostility” toward the U.S.—though the criteria for such determinations remain vague.
