The way she expressed it, she thinks the block belongs to her and she can do whatever she wants.
She even said the woman asked her to keep it down and her response was "Get out of my face".
I see an entitled queen attitude right there - I'll do what I want, dont' dis me. She seemed to feel threatened by the woman even saying anything to her.
This same attitude is why so many young black people end up shot by police and by each other. You gotta compromise a little to live in a civilized society.
Right. She even asked “what is she going to do when I have a party?” indicating that she intends to have loud parties, which she thinks is her right…no matter how loud and at what time.
In this case, the neighbor actually had the decency to approach her personally to ask her to tone down the noise. Not surprisingly, the woman in return snaps at her and tells her to get out of her face, leaving the neighbor no option bit to call the police. My guess is that this woman was speaking very loudly and doing other things to annoy her neighbors.
Its just their business model.
1. Do something
2. Get your feelings hurt
3. Post it on the net.
4. Claim racism.
5. Get a lawyer
6. Settle for undisclosed sum.
Sometimes it pays well.
The neighbor that made the complaint, was she inside her home or sitting on the porch? How loud was the conversation? Did anyone measure the volume or capture it on video to determine how loud she was?
If she was talking at the volume of the linked video then I don't know how you could hear her talking unless you were literally sitting on your porch outside. The properties are not very large with only about 8-10 feet to the sidewalk. If that is the case then I hate to see what a lawn mower would do to the Neighbor's sanity.
Apparently pretty loud.

- Eastpointe police say officers issued a woman a e for talking loudly on the phone outside because she "could be heard from approximately 150 feet away" and refused to participate in an investigation into a complaint.
I'll wait for some of our black posters here to come let you know how they'd handle some lady walking around in front of their place screaming on their phone and how that's not "community culture".
You pull that crap in front of my old friends building (semi-rough black neighborhood in Chicago), you're likely to get an earful from the residents to take it somewhere else regardless of race with a possible projectile or two added if you kept it up.
Idk..I live in Chicago and I see people do this all the time. Speaking l.a.f on their cellphones. And to be perfectly honest, most of them are black that I see.
it's the culture you grow up in. I'm sure there are plenty of white people doing this as well somewhere.
Surprised the woman who told her to be quieter was not brutally assaulted.
I was thinking the same thing. Wonder how she got away with asking her polity to be more quiet? Wow, no violence this time. I guess that is a good thing or positive in all of this.
