Title 48, § 301(31a, b, c), Code of Alabama of 1940, as amended, which provide:
"§ 301(31a). Separate accommodations for white and colored races.—All passenger stations in this state operated by any motor transportation company shall have separate waiting rooms or space and separate ticket windows for the white and colored races, but such accommodations for the races shall be equal. All motor transportation companies or operators of vehicles carrying passengers for hire in this state, whether intrastate or interstate passengers, shall at all times provide equal but separate accommodations on each vehicle for the white and colored races. The conductor or agent of the motor transportation company in charge of any vehicle is authorized and required to assign each passenger to the division of the vehicle designated for the race to which the passenger belongs; and, if the passenger refuses to occupy the division to which he is assigned, the conductor or agent may refuse to carry the passenger on the vehicle; and, for such refusal, neither the conductor or agent of the motor transportation company nor the motor transportation company shall be liable in damages. Any motor transportation company or person violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, shall be fined not more than five hundred dollars for each offense; and each day's violation of this section shall constitute a separate offense.
Section 10, Chapter 6, Code of the City of Montgomery, 1952, which provides:
"Every person operating a bus line in the city shall provide equal but separate accommodations for white people and negroes on his buses, by requiring the employees in charge thereof to assign passengers seats on the vehicles under their charge in such manner as to separate the white people from the negroes, where there are both white and negroes on the same car; provided, however, that negro nurses having in charge white children or sick or infirm white persons, may be assigned seats among white people.
"Nothing in this section shall be construed as prohibiting the operators of such bus lines from separating the races by means of separate vehicles if they see fit."
Section 11 of Chapter 6, Montgomery City Code of 1952, further provides:
"Any employee in charge of a bus operated in the city shall have the powers of a police officer of the city while in actual charge of any bus, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the preceding section, and it shall be unlawful for any passenger to refuse or fail to take a seat among those assigned to the race to which he belongs, at the request of any such employee in charge, if there is such a seat vacant."
The members of the Board of Commissioners and the Chief of Police of the City of Montgomery in their answers to the complaint admit "that they seek to enforce the statutes of the State of Alabama and the ordinances of the City of Montgomery, Alabama", and further aver that "segregation of privately owned buses within cities within the State of Alabama is in accordance with the laws of the State of Alabama and the City of Montgomery."
The Montgomery City Lines, Inc., admits that it has operated, and pursuant to orders of a State Court, continues to operate "its buses as required by the Statutes and Ordinances set out in the Complaint requiring it to provide equal but separate accommodations for the white and colored races". Without dispute the evidence is to the effect that, other than being separate, such accommodations are equal.
The defendants, Blake and Cleere, admit they are employees of the Montgomery City Lines and drivers of its buses, that as such they have acted pursuant to orders of said Company which "has operated its buses on the basis of racial segregation as required by said statutes and ordinances". They deny that as drivers of said buses they are exercising the powers of police officers in the enforcement of said statutes and ordinances.
In any case these laws were passed for a reason. Maybe you should research that. It wasn't just to be mean or because they thought some people are ugly.
Claudette Colvin was the "original" girl. She was a teenager when she was arrested for refusing to give up her seat, which is why her story started to gain traction. But she also had darker skin and was pregnant while unmarried, and the rumor was that the father was a married man. They staged the Rosa Parks incident because Rosa Parks had lighter skin and a cleaner background, so they gave the press fewer weapons to use against them.
I'm not knocking the civil rights movement, but much like the Christian Baker Saga, they would purposefully stage and instigate this shit for a reaction. But yes, they had done this stunt a few times, and Rosa was just the one that got traction.
Worst part was this was the staged photo op with Rosa Parks and NAACP, some time before that a Black Pregnant Teen Claudette Colvin some 9 months before the Rosa Park stunt she refused to give up her seat when someone wanted to sit, was ignored by NAACP no one to take pictures of it at the time.
the democrats would have gone old school ddos then (set fire to the building in the night)
then they would pass laws and regulations to protect the citizens from exposure to the shocking, horrifying, extreme sight of a bus company like that ever existing again.
This sums up the left perfectly
actually this isn't bad logic. A-A people owned businesses then. One of them could have easily started a bus company.
Because this wasn't a law, it was just the bus company's rules. And they had reasons for those rules.
I love this argument. Too bad the left doesn't care about their hypocrisy and in fact weaponizes it.
And from what we've seen in the last election, red pilling normies with shit like this is irrelevant because the elections are fraudulent
It wasn't the bus company's rules, the company was following state and local laws.
Well, she should have created her own state and/or country then.
lol no it was the bus company's rule. Stop with the revisionist bullshit
okay retard
Yes.
People need to read more facts, and less "meme facts".
All that second part only applies in Montgomery.
In any case these laws were passed for a reason. Maybe you should research that. It wasn't just to be mean or because they thought some people are ugly.
They were a private company! Just like Twitter!
Rosa wasn't even the first woman to do this. Forgot why they made her the face of the movement but it was intentional

Too bad the Rosa Parks story is a bunch of fake bullshit lol
Lol wow
damn son this is a burner!
Spicy.
Whoa!
Commies on Reddit would agree with this sentiment because they preach it every day
She should have.
Pointing out leftist hypocrisy does nothing
They don't want her making her own bus company. They think she should have just fucking walked.
No bus for you!
