    Kevin Moore was in uniform, with a clipboard and fire truck during a routine inspection. Residents called 911 and videotaped him.
    Someone called the police last month on a black firefighter who was participating in a safety inspection in Oakland, California. Someone else filmed him and asked him to produce identification.

    Kevin Moore was one of a number of firefighters carrying out legally mandated exterior inspections to determine if vegetation posed an extra risk to homes in the event of a wildfire, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. Working in an upscale area of the Oakland hills, Moore was in uniform and carrying a clipboard and a radio, with his station’s fire truck parked nearby.

    Prompted by a resident’s call, an emergency 911 dispatcher contacted Moore’s station on May 16 to determine if the inspections were going on. Someone also emailed home security footage to the Oakland Police Department showing Moore — clearly in uniform — knocking on a door. When Moore returned to do more inspections last week, a neighbor used his cellphone to videotape him, asked him what he was doing in the neighborhood and demanded to see his ID — which the resident then photographed.

    Moore told the neighbor that if he was still concerned, he could check the street and see “a big red fire engine,” the Chronicle reported.

    This law abiding, public servant was carrying out his legal duties of his job, and despite that, it did not stop someone from making a fraudulent 911 call. Will our fellow American citizens on the right defend this firefighter?

    And of course, if he hadn't been doing his job, he would have simply been called lazy.

    Sure let put this to the test. Send out a white fire fighter and see what happens. My guess is crickets.

    WTF is white guilt?

    Sounds like a personal problem.

    Compassion is something else, not to be confused with ..."white guilt"

    Dunno why you focused on skin color for those that have compassion for another human being....If you somehow think "white guilt" is a thing

    I do not like people with too much compassion for another stranger...can that make since to you?

    If this guy wasn't doing his job, he'd just be a lazy black who wanted a handout to some.

    But when your house is on fire you are hoping that white firemen show up not affirmative action firemen.

    Criminals gain access while masquerading as officials all the time. Your problem with this is exactly what?

    Statistically, blacks make the suspicions justifiable. what we're seeing with threads/narratives like these is an attempt to project blame for the black community's systemic dysfunction onto people who can read and do math.

    Home invaders and burglars use this technique quite commonly.

    ...The white fireman are the affirmative action "volunteers".

    So what you type makes since prolly in your head....Only cause somehow skin color dictates compassion?

    Are you conflicted when a mutt out performs pure breeds? and Visa versa?
