- 0:38Speaker 1: rank of corporal. Okay E three. So a cop and
- 0:42Speaker 1: a marine Ashley is okay. Keep in mind, police and
- 0:46Speaker 1: Marines are both considered public service. They are supposed to

- 1:35Speaker 5: racial slur at least twenty five times since the post
- 1:39Speaker 5: has gone viral. Gonzalez has been relieved of duty, and
- 1:42Speaker 5: in the social media video references being in the Marines.
- 1:46Speaker 1: I feel like I was back in the Marine Corps.
- 1:48Speaker 5: According to the Houston Police Departments General Order, officers must
- 1:51Speaker 5: comply with the code of Ethics that mentions acting without prejudices,
- 1:56Speaker 5: and they have a social media policy that prohibits them
- 1:59Speaker 5: from post see anything that would harm the reputation of
- 2:02Speaker 5: the department or city.
- 2:04Speaker 2: The hpo U president Douglas Griffith said in a statement,
- 2:08Speaker 2: quote in no way does the HPOU or its leadership
- 2:12Speaker 2: condone or tolerate racist behavior from any of our officers.
- 2:15Speaker 1: End quote twenty five niggas in a minute and a half.
- 2:19Speaker 1: I've never even heard a raper do that. Okay, who
- 2:22Speaker 1: in the house says, let me record my racism and
- 2:25Speaker 1: then hit sin? Can we hear it? Can I hear
- 2:27Speaker 1: just the somewhat of just her rant? And can I
- 2:29Speaker 1: hear some of that? Police?
- 2:30Speaker 4: The amount of times I will always and forever say
- 2:33Speaker 4: that I hate, Oh my god, I I hate like.
- 2:38Speaker 4: I hate y'all like you like I don't. Oh, we
- 2:42Speaker 4: were slaves, isn't I I don't give a like for
- 2:44Speaker 4: a reason. You guys were slaves. You guys don't know
- 2:48Speaker 4: anything better than the steal like dog like let me
- 2:51Speaker 4: get a black person on an old one call tomorrow.
- 2:55Speaker 4: Especially you're going off, Joe. I don't know if you're
- 2:58Speaker 4: getting treated like a bunch of because why the as
- 3:02Speaker 4: you as the smallest, are you learning how to feel already?
- 3:06Speaker 6: Like?
- 3:06Speaker 1: How the okay, Jesus no more, Ashley. I know you
- 3:12Speaker 1: are a cop, I know you a former marine, but
- 3:14Speaker 1: please don't think for one second, that you can't get
- 3:16Speaker 1: racially profiled too. Okay, I just got a picture of
- 3:20Speaker 1: you up right now, all right, I don't understand how
- 3:22Speaker 1: y'all think systemic racism works. They don't care that you
- 3:25Speaker 1: serve this country. They don't care that you are a cop.
- 3:27Speaker 1: You a brown girl in America. You can and will
- 3:30Speaker 1: get profiled and discriminated against too. There is data that
- 3:33Speaker 1: shows that black Americans report higher levels of frequent discrimination
- 3:37Speaker 1: in police profiling, while Hispanics face distinct high levels of
- 3:40Speaker 1: profiling regarding immigration status and language usage usage. Okay, Ashley,
- 3:46Speaker 1: with that accident, that last name Gonzales, and that spaghetti top,
- 3:50Speaker 1: you are guaranteed to be ICE's next top target. Okay,
- 3:53Speaker 1: you know, I'm all for thoughts, just staying thoughts, but
- 3:57Speaker 1: not when people are in positions of power like this.
- 4:00Speaker 1: This woman says she couldn't wait to take a black
- 4:02Speaker 1: person to jail on the next nine to one to
- 4:05Speaker 1: one call simply because one black person allegedly tried to
- 4:08Speaker 1: steal her wallet. I'm glad that she decided to say
- 4:10Speaker 1: how she feels openly, because we need to know who's who,
- 4:14Speaker 1: all right, her actions can turn into consequences. She has
- 4:17Speaker 1: a badge that gives her power over people's freedom, and
- 4:20Speaker 1: that badge with a gun and her racist energy can
- 4:24Speaker 1: lead to very very, very very bad things happening. Okay,
- 4:27Speaker 1: she's not just racist, she's not just ignorant. She's dangerous. Okay,
- 4:33Speaker 1: systemic racism in a spaghetti top. Okay, ready to ruin
- 4:36Speaker 1: another person of color's day. This woman has to be fired. Okay,
- 4:41Speaker 1: there is no rehabilitating this. When someone shows you who
- 4:43Speaker 1: they are, especially in law enforcement, believe them the first time.
- 4:47Speaker 1: And the fact that she thought that she was bigger
- 4:49Speaker 1: than the program. She doesn't need to have the job
- 4:52Speaker 1: as a police officer because she doesn't even care about
- 4:54Speaker 1: the job. Because if she did care, why the hell
- 4:57Speaker 1: would she go live in sadie things? As I said earlier,
- 5:01Speaker 1: why would you record your racism and then upload it?
- 5:04Speaker 1: You are a former marine and current Houston police officer
- 5:08Speaker 1: and you think it's okay to get on camera and
- 5:10Speaker 1: tell the world how much you don't like black people.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Either you think very little of your job, or you
- 5:16Speaker 1: believe people think that little of black people that you
- 5:20Speaker 1: could get that off. Okay, if she can profile all
- 5:22Speaker 1: black people because of one black person trying to steal
- 5:24Speaker 1: her wallet. Then police should understand why folks profile all
- 5:28Speaker 1: police when something like this happens. Okay, Ashley Gonzalez is
- 5:31Speaker 1: why there is no trust between communities and police. How
- 5:34Speaker 1: does someone with this kind of bias get the job
- 5:37Speaker 1: in the first place? How can you have this type
- 5:39Speaker 1: of bias? Well, your last name is Gonzales, you have
- 5:44Speaker 1: an accent, and you're wearing a spaghetti top. Okay, Ashley,
- 5:48Speaker 1: if you talk like this when the cameras are on,
- 5:51Speaker 1: what are you doing when the cameras are off? Okay,
- 5:55Speaker 1: especially the body cameras. Behavior like this destroys public trust. Okay.
- 5:59Speaker 1: You cannot wear badge to protect people you openly admit
- 6:03Speaker 1: you hate. That's not law enforcement. That's a liability. Please
- 6:06Speaker 1: let REMI MA give Ashley Gonzales the biggest he huf.
- 6:09Speaker 4: He ha he ha.
- 6:11Speaker 6: You stupid by there, You dumb. Its definitely dumb.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Crazy. Yeah, she shouldn't be suspended, she should be fired. Absolutely.
- 6:21Speaker 3: I think should be fired soon. I think they got
- 6:23Speaker 3: to do a proper investigation. But there's no way you
- 6:25Speaker 3: bring her back. Yeah, they waiting on the final ruling. Yeah,
- 6:27Speaker 3: there's no way.
- 6:28Speaker 6: One of the people that you drop off in the
- 6:30Speaker 6: hood for the most gulliest black people. Just let them
- 6:33Speaker 6: do whatever they want to her and see if she
- 6:35Speaker 6: still talks like that since you hate us so much,
- 6:39Speaker 6: you know.
- 6:39Speaker 1: But she probably wouldn't, but it's still in her heart.
- 6:41Speaker 1: She still feel Yeah, but.
- 6:42Speaker 6: But you know, you gotta be racist with your chest
- 6:44Speaker 6: though not in your car.
- 6:45Speaker 1: But how can it's so crazy to be racist like
- 6:48Speaker 1: they are also Gonzales. You are brownie people out here
- 6:52Speaker 1: getting profiled right now? What are you talking about? No
- 6:56Speaker 1: sense all you got a spaghetti top one that really
- 7:00Speaker 1: bothered you home. I mean, it's not a stereotype. If
- 7:03Speaker 1: it's true. I wonder what happened before that.
- 7:05Speaker 6: Somebody made Shorty mad.
- 7:06Speaker 1: I just told you she thought that a black person
- 7:08Speaker 1: is trying to steal her wallet. Yeah, uh, yeah, I
- 7:12Speaker 1: don't know. I'm bad. I was listening like you. I
- 7:14Speaker 1: wasn't listening like you do. Sometimes that's crazy. I didn't
- 7:16Speaker 1: know that, but Shorty was mad. You know, she was
- 7:19Speaker 1: a police officer. Yeah, I heard that.
- 7:21Speaker 3: The only thing I did hear was why.
- 7:25Speaker 1: I know, yeah I heard that.
- 7:26Speaker 6: When you said Gonzales, I was like, damn, I didn't
- 7:28Speaker 6: expect that story from a Gonzales.
