Sturdivant Defends Actions

Retha Pierce, the Atlantic Beach Town Council member and mayoral hopeful who was charged with resisting arrest during a traffic stop last week, said she did not know she was expected to stay in her car after she was pulled over.
On Wednesday, Pierce said she would use the experience to push for better communication in Atlantic Beach between police and citizens so people know what they should do during a traffic stop.
“All of my life, I’ve taken every bad situation and looked for the good,” Pierce said. “I can take what happened to me and bring to light that people should become educated of the urgency of staying in the car.”
What a load of bullshit. And who voted for that woman? I mean, look at her! Everyone has the right to be ugly, but she’s abused the privilege
