She also came across in your first thread as being unable to accept any responsibility for her actions (lost tickets) and holding a needless grudge when she was totally at fault.

Is it possible do you think that she might have been abusive towards the cops?
This is pretty close to my thoughts as well. If she already had an irrational grudge against Calgary Transit/transit cops, and seems to have an issue taking responsibility, it seems quite plausable that she helped to escelate things.

Transit cops do not have a sense of humour, so if she did so, then I can easily see the cop hauling her away in a damn hurry. This, of course, does not mean her story about the cop's attitude towards her is necessarily wrong. I would, however, really like to know what she means by "acting really bigoted toward her." (and I realize that part of the story will never get to us - especially given this is likely to go before lawyers and the courts) Based on the original thread, I would immediately suspect that she is just making assumptions that the cop was a bigot simply because he nailed a black woman for jaywalking. If her story is accurate in that regard, however, then the cop deserves to be fired regardless of anything she may have done to escelate things.
