Earlier this month, a man named Patrick Lyoya was shot and killed by a police officer after he was pulled over for allegedly driving with an “unregistered license plate.” Most people would question, “what is wrong with our country when an unregistered license plate gets you the death penalty?” But unfortunately, some ask, “why did he just not comply?” There are a million reasons why, and Amber is here to break it down for you.

"I Will Watch It", "THANK YOU"...
"I Will Watch, "THANK YOU", I KNOW I'M GONNA LOVE IT"...
Love ya Amber
My heart breaks with each one of these How Did We Get Here segments - don't ever stop, Amber!!
Yes don’t stop, Amber is the best!
I follow her but have to start listening to her more often.
Stop lying amber...these people can't handle anymore brainwashing...its making them crazy
the lead-lined life vest was a wonderful analogy. thank you.
Pls share and use in ur explanations. We need voters
You can always tell when Amber is really upset. Her composure goes through the roof and her usual effervescent personality diminishes.
Her hurt is real, I feel it too, im impressed that she can keep doing the show and not have a mental break down because she has to view the evil and make it funny every show...
Yeah.
@@tonysmith4702
exactly
When it happens to one of us it happens to all of us. That's why we all react the way we do.
That's how normal people react to murderous injustice. They don't focus on the reaction of normal people to murderous injustice. That's more of a psychopathic trait
This happened in my city. Barely anyone at my job said anything about it. Thank you for speaking on this and bringing it to a larger platform.
@@puddentaine Tone deaf.
But they were afraid of those George Floyd riots though, I bet
Another person resisting arrest. What is to talk about
In this world you can not trust Colonizers 🤦🏾♂️
There’s one more reason why someone might not comply with police. In this case, he literally didn’t understand why he was in trouble? The cop escalated at every turn and continued laying hands on and pursuing a man he clearly couldn’t subdue and who tried to reason with him before trying to run away from him. Lyoya was never a threat to that cop’s life. He was a threat to his ego.
I remember hearing a story of cops using physical force on someone for not complying when the person in question was jogging with headphones in so they didn't even know the cops were issuing commands at all.
He was armed with the Taser he took from the officer
Yes, there was a language problem.
@@TheSundayShooter and that's why they waited 4mins to start any CPR¿
@@DocProcRealm Performing CPR on a corpse is useless and pure formality
A few month ago a group of loud college kids were climbing some construction equipment parked outside my apartment window late at night while I was trying to sleep. I thought about calling the police to report a noise complaint but even though I'm white and am unlikely to be targeted by the police I didn't want to risk one of the college kids getting shot over a noise complaint so I just waited for them to leave.
Thank you for thinking first. I’ve been in similar positions and yeah, it’s best to think twice before possibly escalating the situation.
Well done! Hope that mind aer catches on.
Right on. My friend tells me the best advice his Drivers Ed teacher gave him was, “Never accelerate into danger.” I think this is similar.
So pathetic. I call the police always when I see that kind of people 😁
@@Nicminiezrobisz What kind of people?
Cops: "yeah we got a call..."
Person: "really? Who called?"
Cops: "we're not here to discuss that, you have any ID on ya...?"
That cuts both ways.....don't need some thug hunting down his neighbors after the cops leave.
Explain what is wrong with that? Cops aren't equal with anyone, they are there because someone called them to handle a problem. Just answer the questions and live. It's really simple.
@@CribNotes Show me you didn't watch the vid without showing me you didn't watch the vid... 🙄
@@ecchidragon8038 Amber's math tarded writers don't know what the fk they're talking about. And the bodies keep stacking even faster because of it.
@@CribNotes Ah yes... And I'm sure I'm recieving this deeply thought out and researched reflection (not confirmation biased opinion _at all)_ from one of the Titans of Reasoning.
... I mean, clearly, your posts reflect this depth and breadth of thought. 🤣
Love these segments! No one is doing it like Amber
Love the segments, hate that they need to be made.
A str8 clown 🤡
Are you that ignorant that you hate yourself
White people understand it , if they admit it they will lose their bishop...they will have to give into accountability
Deeeeep!
Now let the choir say amen!!!!!
Stereotype a whole race is very ignorant.
@@John-kx3ng Yes it is so ✋
@@John-kx3ng Sure, sure but it’s not a stereotype if it’s true. 🤦🏾♂️
And it’s true.
That is the whole ball of wax in one sentence. This should be a T-shirt!!
Amber always, speaking truth, hope they keep this show on. They don't like this type of talk.
Absolutely, when you speak the truth they are quick to shut it ALL down!
@@oceanbreeze6589 that's right
Truth?......maybe for the few......but for the rest of us law abiding citizens.....we chillin 😎
@@dolobrolic6066 You must mean white people
@@dolobrolic6066 STHU!!!
"WHY DIDN'T HE JUST COMPLY?" WHY DIDN'T THE COP JUST BACK OFF AND NOT ESCALATE THE TRIVIAL SITUATION.
Not the cops job to? Comply. Ifthey violate your rights, sue them and remove their qualified immunity and sue the cops individually for doing so too. That's how this stops. Enjoy the payday while you're at it.
@@PayNoTaxes0GetNoVote So you are saying it's not the cops job to not escalate the situation? On what planet?
@@bones8057 Escalation takes 2. People who are already escalated make the choice to deescalate or stay escalated....sometimes there is no "talking" someone down.....on this planet. By not complying, YOU are escalating the situation.
@@PayNoTaxes0GetNoVote It doesn't take 2 to escalate. Police routinely escalate situations without cause. It's how some cops operate.
I still vividly remember the segment Amber did on Seth Meyer's telling of some of the interatctions she's had with policemen. It was utterly terrifying and infuriating.
Me too, I think she was telling him about her Chicago days and how having a white person in her car or in her friend group likely saved her from getting harassed by a cop, or worse...
I love how you are not afraid to "tell it like it is" about Omaha!
This show is so incredibly important.
wyte ppl know exactly why we “dont just comply” tired of explaining things to a ppl that already know and dont care. waste of energy and time.
By all means, don't comply. Keep dying....
@KFC Man cause your type refuse to take your blinders off.
@KFC Man did you not watch the video? Have you not seen any of the videos like the one I saw recently where an unarmed woman carrying a baby had multiple guns pulled on her... And the start of this? A doctor called the police because, unbeknownst to the mom, her toddler in the back seat had taken a small toy with him from the waiting room.
Last time I complied I was rewarded with a broken nose & fractured rib at 15 years old
So horrible. This shouldn't happen to anyone.
Comply. Document. Sue .Publicize.
@@ewokwarrior2656 That's assuming u survive the compliance, can afford legal counsel, & have a background spotless enough to win.
Fortunately I had all 3, but many of my peers aren't so lucky
@@ewokwarrior2656 what's suing going to do? cops have qualified immunity and literally can do whatever they want. the city and taxpayers pays the lawsuit not the cops.
@@plutotech Suing the police has plenty of consequences for the police officers, even with qualified immunity.
They get a paid vacation, sorry, administrative leave, and then later get to retire with full honors.
I do not believe they don’t get it. They invented it.
IKR
Invented what?
@@85Vikingen I assume they mean systemic racism. Putting racism into our laws and in our Constitution.
@@henrytawnn8694 You might be right. I wonder if it hurts? Being that ignorant I mean...
Victimhood narrative.
When Colin first took a knee, I had a Latinx girlfriend in NM that said Colin was being disrespectful of those who serve to guarantee his freedom. She was obviously raised ''white enough'' that she never encountered the harassment and brutality experienced by other members of the Latinx community, she still didn't see, we parted.
I am so sorry, she could not understand.
You will find someone who knows the trauma.
Most Hispanics think they are white, so don't even bother these delusional folks.
It's crazy the denial when the evidence is clear. Thank you for speaking up.
Kneeling is a sign of respect and of prayer. To me, kneeling during the anthem is praying for our country.
Ironically it was a retired Army Green Beret who advised Colin Kaepernick to take a knee during the national anthem in protest to police brutality.
Another issue is that not every situation requires an armed police officer to be sent to the scene. Especially mental health episodes.
Exactly! Which is what the poorly named "Defund the Police" movement was all about too. But ... fearmongers and spin meisters put the brakes on even having a conversation about the matter.
Who you think calls the police because the person is out of control? It's usually FAMILY. Like a social worker is gonna do any better.
@@PayNoTaxes0GetNoVote Re-read the original post, focus on the "mental health episodes" part and "not every situation requires an armed police officer."
Thanks, Amber! I was one of those people asking that question. A lot of us need these lessons so we can understand each other better.
I loved to see you on The View!!
Amber is such a necessary voice: intelligent, humorous, and compassionate.
Amber, I love you and your ability to tell it like it is.
Same here ✌️ from 🇨🇦
You must think you are living in the fifth dimension where multi-billion dollar corporations, I mean the news, tell the truth everyday. Wake up, sister.
Amber is precious. They should be ashamed
... she knows about the punch card, guys.
Mine's gonna be turkey on rye with mayo.
I thought mayo was automatic but mustard you have to request? Hmm. Maybe I should call 911 and ask rq
@@ICryRanierBeer Think twice if Hjarrandi is really your last name~
@@corigram Ummm, you realize that Hj's and Bj's are common in Nordic names? I think they'll be jes' fine.

A white woman called cops on me for walking in Shelby County
Also, your name is beautiful, Micah. 😌
- a White Woman called cops on me while walking...
White Woman - your name is beautiful.
(Sigh) What's the point...
@@MelissaChapin your is not
@@bucknekkid_ Hahaha made me laugh
I’m white and have been assaulted by cops several times over nothing. Literally walking down the street. I get it.
...uh
These neo-libs don't listen to logic my dude
RIP Patrick Lyoya.
Thank you for doing these closer looks. I have learned so much from this, and it has given me a starting point to see how things up here in Canada are different but, how some things are, sadly, the same.
Sadly, the same in this case, both for city police and for RCMP
This isn't a closer look. There's a lot wrong with what she said, but I'll give you a challenge. Go read into the case of Mr. Lyola yourself. Read what actually happened. Just that one piece. And find out for yourself.
YESSSSS Amber calling out a specific musical theater character and roasting them is something I need weekly (if not every moment, constantly). Thank you writers for locating a direct path to where I keep the cackles
This society is sick on so many levels. Always have been.
Well thought out and put together Amber Ruffin 💯 love your show 👸🏿...
sad, but true
Amber is resplendent isn't she
Yes. Yes, she really is.
@Brandon Rittenhouse awe
What correct spelling if you would be so kind .
I legitimately get nervous around the police. I could be sitting at a red light listening to a calming instrumental and I’ll still get tense. 😔
I think what your missing is there was no Antecedent cause to run his plates . It was a DWB .
What is DWB?
Oh wait, I just got it
@Eric Cartman that depends on where you live. In my state, they legally need a reason. Privacy is a right, even if driving isn't 🤷♀️
@Eric Cartman lol and what exactly am I wrong about? The law in my state that says they need cause to run your plates?
Seriously, Amber Ruffin blew my mind when Seth Meyers turned the mic over to her back in the before times. Her recollections of police stops were literally revelatory.
...thank you for breaking it down...
Thank you Amber Ruffin!
I could not have explained it any better. Spot-on!
Ppl act like police don't have a documented history of fatal mistakes.
Treat us like we are white when they get called.
Thank you for your service Amber. You are loved sis.
Thanks for the new talking point when that conversation comes up.
I’m so thankful we have you, Amber. 🙏💜
Exceptional. So simple. Thank You.
I love your show Amber!
I feel your pain about the hot comb.
ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT VIDEO AMBER!!!
Because you comply you still get shot or arrested if you called them because someone broke into your home.
Oh, they understand it!!!
And this is why I read Amber (and her sister's!) book.
Didn't know that existed! Immediately getting that on audiobook from the library 😱
I appreciate your show so much.... I feel like I learn so much. But dang, this episode literally made me tear up. Because I know it's a reality for so many.
Me too!
@@anon1q797 Qanon? Is that still a thing? 🙄
@@dellacalfee storms coming 😉
@@anon1q797 Been waiting homie! Bring it to the hood 👌🏽
@@MrDyoung4 storm will definitely stop by the hood 👍🏼🌊
Amazingly put.
I love you Amber, you always tell it like it is and call out what's what. Thank you. 🖤
Many don't want to understand.
Thanks for the education Amber 😢
"YOU ARE SO ON POINT IT'S EXASPERATING, The Story About The 'Stratening Comb Is Historical Hilarious, I Remember It Well"...
'straightening'
Nobody is going to do anything about it besides talk and then march and then protest and still nothing will change
They do only when it happens to them.
They certainly do understand it, rely on it, and are grateful for it! That's why it persists.
I'm terrified of cops, and I'm white! I get so much anxiety just seeing one driving behind me.
Why is that?
@@kimfielder38 I'm usually high.
Thanks again Mrs.Ruffin
I can’t give this vid enough thumbs up
I'm like who's tailgating me with their high beams on oh it's just a sheriff
Some of us do.
Why we're selective over calling them
Love, love, love me some Amber.
Don't forget that you can also go to jail for eating a sandwich at a station.
Amber Ruffin for Congress! Pretty with an intelligent edge!
No more leftist Marxist please
So awesome.
Finding out that Amber's from the same hometown... priceless.
Judge Judy has an excellent example that she uses from time to time called "The moldy blueberry". It only takes one moldy blueberry to spoil the whole carton so she's really careful when she buys them not to buy any with mold. Likewise it only takes one moldy person to infect a crowd of people & turn them bad. "If you hang around garbage you turn into garbage". Judge Judy ❤️🙏
Sometimes Ms. Ruffin makes me feel so sad.
Define "comply"??? Being face down on the ground doesn't seem to help?? Putting your hands behind your back to be handcuffed doesn't help?? Awaiting a tow truck on the side of the road didn't help??
Amber is always on point with these social issues. Pay attention people and learn.
Bravo Amber!!! All they have to do is take a look at the 60s when folks like my parents and grandparents were marching for the right to vote peacefully and cops hit them with their batons and used water holes and sick attacks dogs on them.
keep on educating us all
N the victimhood narrative
Why didn't our Founding Fathers just comply with the Red Coats?
Spectacular show! Keep it up!
Love Amber! Your well prepared and factual coverage is priceless
Brilliant
Thanks Amber for keeping this white lady woke. I love you.
Idk why we stay here and deal with them 😴😴
I hear u!
Because this is our home.
@@nitaw.498 Idk about yu but when I step inside the house NOBODY is brutalizing or oppressing me. Gluck with that Mlk Jr
I see we conditioned to be unaware of reality
Lots don't but they do understand ATF.
Lots of people have never had that experience that demonstrates that for police "protect & serve" is public relations to be done in their spare time. Step out of line, Man come and take you away.
Well done. Thank you.
You are 100% correct!
How can one not love Amber? Amber Ruffin should be invited to be a Supreme Court Justice
I love the way you break things down .. thank you
Ms. Ruffin, that was excellent. Thank you.
I’m gonna DEFEND myself n my family from this shyt BY ALL MEANS! Revenge is Just in the face of Injustice.
YAY Different World references! I loved that show.
Same here.
Keep it up Amber, we feel you and we got you!
Thank you for the info, peace
First of all when she said “On this” I expected a crowd cheering and clapping. This women deserves her roses now!
If she told people to stop resisting she would have some integrity
That whole "why didn't he just comply" statement is dismissively ignorant.
And ignorantly dismissive
Thank you Amber.
Everybody didn't get that hot comb joke 😂😂, I grab my ear EVERY TIME I see one 😩😂🤣
A wolf will never “understand “ the plight of a sheep .
I'm glad they gave her a show. Hope she goes farther then this to.
