Ok I was wrong. I feel somewhat of the struggle that minoritys face ALL the time. Today me and a group of about 6 freinds were walking home from school. I was the only white boy, the rest are black and mexican. We were minding our own. We werent yelling cuss words or being disruptive. No bandannas. Nothing. Out of no where a cop car pulls up. The cop is like "ON THE GROUND NOW! ALL OF YOU!" And we were all like "Wtf? No. We didnt do anything." So then he starts walking over quickly and is like "SIT DOWN! NOW!" So we sit down. Then he is like "What are yall doing? Thinkin you can roam the streets like some hoodlums and not get caught!" Then he walks up to my freind and smells his breath and his like "Dont act like I dont know what that smells like!".... We had just ate mcdonalds! WTF??? The fatass pig would know... Anyways, he does a lil search of our bags... We reluctantly let him. And he didnt find shit. He let us go, but still, we werent acting supisousis or anything. We hadnt been in any stores today. We didnt ditch school. And we havent been in trouble before. I know for a fact if we were all white kids, we wouldnt have been stopped. Fucking pig. I felt like saying "Fuck you fatass!" but then he would have more reason to search us better and my freinds had a ciggerette in a pencil bag soooo yeah. But the cops are fucking gay! Tell me some storys.
Life's a bitch and I'm just along for the ride.

I have come to understand the cop's postion. And laugh at people who get mad at them for doing their job.
We all know that each of our end is near; the question is do we accept the end of our living existence, or do we accept our existence as dead men...

Quote (I_Guy) And laugh at people who get mad at them for doing their job. he wasnt doin shit. We werent doing anything. We werent acting like hoodlums. We werent being loud. Half of them had headphones in. Our hoods were down. We didnt have our hats cocked. We werent saggin. The only thing we thought of why he would do that is that I was wearing a white shirt with blue shorts and blut bball shows (crip?) Or because 3 of them were wearing Dickies with white shirts? Thats all we could think of. We really werent putting anyone in danger. Fuck him fucking piece of shit pig. he was striaght up harrassing us because we were mostly minority and young. PIG

It's called statistics.

Menace, I agree with that. With the American government its like "My way or the highway." Actually, "My way, or I'm going to smash this fucking highway then beat you to a pulp until your dead, or agree"

Without statistics (although they are usually corrupted, nevertheless are usually close to the truth) there would be no profiling. What you are talking about and what the thread starter are talking about are sort of different. Although I do see his point, they were hassled for no reason at all and it was a complete inconvenience to them (but face it, we all know they walked away feeling like bad asses, besides the point). Trust me I been faced with the same shit and way fucking worse. I drive a mid condition 1978 Brown Cutlass Supreme and I've been searched far too many fucking times to be defending something that I don't see a little truth in. Imagine if they were "hoodlums" and they just stole some shit from a guy down the block. If you were that guy you wouldn't be bashing the cops. It's one of those damned if you do damned if you don't situations. I understand the cops position because where I work I've had my stereo jacked and my car broken into numerous times, as well as probably everyone else there. So eventually I decided I had enough and decided to take action myself (because the cops have been doing what you guys wish they would do and have been minding there own business). So I sit out front and walk the parking lot every weekend, and you know what happens? I suspect every fucking late night car I see. Even further, I have been informed it is a red car that transports the thieves, so you know what I do? I suspect every fucking red car I see. Even further, I've been told they are Hispanic, so you know what I do? I suspect every fucking Hispanic I see and there's not a damn thing I can do to change that. So what's the result, I assumingly accuse a few innocent in an attempt to strive for something good. Now in my ideal world we should all be thankful that a cops stop us, because they are simply protecting the community and essentially protecting me. But the problem is we get these power hungry aggressively unreasonable cops that fuck up that ideal world to bolster their egos, and that becomes police brutality and unnecessary force, which is what Menace is talking about. Which brings me back to the magic of reason and sensibility, and why they are the solution to everything, unfortunately we don't have too much of it in this world. Don't get me wrong, I understand both sides. There is some grey area though.

Tell me some storys. believe me, i know. actually, my black and Latino friends have this happen to them all the time, even when with me, but when the police see the white kid they forget about talking to the minorities (probably because the cops mistake me for a police officer or military personnel because of my hair and body frame. shit, i've had convicted criminals mistake me for a cop! lol!) and they just talk to the white boy and tell me to keep them in check. little do they realize, some of my Latino and black friends that they mistake as gang bangers have as clean of a criminal history as i do.

wtf, man i can't believe how racist those cops are pathetic, you can't just go searching every group of black people you see. i understand though if they see some people that look suspicious but you can't just walk up to some random people and order them to lie down. and this guy even said he could smell something in his breath when they had done nothing. maybe if they had gang colors or something but you've got to respect people's rights. if i was a cop and i saw some suspicious looking people i'd walk up to them normally and ask them questions, that's how you work with the community. but stuff like what they do just makes the community want to be against you.

Yep, I've had huge discussions about this kind of shit. It seems only certain people become cops. There are very few truly righteous ones, most of them are all fucked in the head and completely unreasonable human beings. It's so damn amazing, they are human beings too, yet society holds them up to be the beacons of justice (same with judges). They're just regular fucking human beings with the same fucked up mindstates that a lot of idiots in society have.
