Q: How many times have we heard / read / seen cop / civilian encounters go south? Worse yet, how many of those incidents have involved race (not that they are necessarily race motivated but race has been made an issue nonetheless)?
A: Too freaking many.
So here is the story of a black on caucasian police encounter involving Taylor, Texas Lawman Keith Urban, who had stopped a vehicle for a traffic infraction and was in the process of writing the driver a citation when a black cat approached...
The dashcam video captured the November 12, 2009 incident from start to finish (all 4:43 of it), and you can see the whole incident here. The police video from Officer Urban’s car shows the kitten prancing in the field around the stopped vehicle as Urban talks to the driver and begins to write a ticket. The cat approaches Officer Urban and begins to rub against his ankles and legs. The cat grows more bold, attaches its claws to Officer Urban’s pant leg and begins to climb up his side and onto his shoulders. When the cat’s actions finally interrupt Officer Urban’s writing, he leans over to gently drop the cat to the ground. Officer Urban continues writing the ticket, but the cat persists, returning to once again climb up his pant leg. This time, it circles Officer Urban’s hips, climbs up his belly and chest and once again onto his shoulders. In a final move, the cat steps its forepaws onto Officer Urban’s head. Through all of this, Officer Urban does his best to ignore the cat, remain professional and finish writing his ticket. After the paperwork is complete, Officer Urban once again pulls the cat off of him and drops it to the ground, nudges it away from him with his foot and then makes haste back to his squad car, the cat following in his footsteps.
Officer Urban tries to shoo the cat away, at one point even giving it a "friendly boot" (causing him to later tell his Chief: "Hey, you know, I kinda kicked this cat away from me and I'm sorry"), but the black cat persists on it's mission to obstruct the caucasian Lawman (and to get itself some human loving). Although he went for a little flight the cat came back, roaring for more. Officer Urban is a patient and lucky Lawman (lucky that the playful black cat was not the Grumpster...) and this is a happy story of obstruction.
