I was listening to Laura ingram yesterday. She had a black male caller who supported trump. He was discussing being profiled by the police and that he would never try to escalate the situation when stopped.
Here is the kicker.... He described one of his profiling events as when he was stopped for having an expired tag and DL. 
I guess I must be black too. I've been profiled before by his rationale. Where do I get my reparation card at? Serious question to Leo. Is that really the mentality when they claim profiling? |

whats out of place in a neighborhood, who are my usual suspects, and from experience what type of vehicles transport weapons and drugs there's no race involved there.....but it is profiling..... we have plenty of usual suspects, but one in particular is a 23yo gang banger...he's been shot 3 separate times in drive bys and run over once....he's a roach, you can't kill him, he's violent, and has an extended rap sheet, he is scum and every opportunity there is to interact with him i took it...whether it was an FI, a ticket, or a ride to jail depending on what he was doing....as long as he is in that life style, and banging...his life will be hell in my jurisdiction i didn't need his race in any of that |

Yes, I've had guys that we chased down through a parking lot at a Target for shoplifting (after loss prevention called us) that had about $600 of stolen prepaid cell phones, that resisted arrest and STILL were convinced that the only reason the LPO called and we responded and chased him was because he was black.
You can't make this shit up. The ignorance that is spewed is mind numbing. |

this is how one agency in Cali breaks it down....
"First of all, let me tell you this...it's not easy. In Chula Vista, we average one cop for every 600 people. Only about 60% of those cops are on general duty (or what you might refer to as "patrol") where we do most of our harassing. The rest are in non-harassing departments that do not allow them contact with the day to day innocents. At any given moment, only one-fifth of the 60% patrollers are on duty and available for harassing people while the rest are off duty. So roughly, one cop is responsible for harassing about 5,000 residents. When you toss in the commercial business, and tourist locations that attract people from other areas, sometimes you have a situation where a single cop is responsible for harassing 10,000 or more people a day. Now, your average ten-hour shift runs 36,000 seconds long. This gives a cop one second to harass a person, and then only three-fourths of a second to eat a donut AND then find a new person to harass. This is not an easy task. To be honest, most cops are not up to this challenge day in and day out. It is just too tiring. What we do is utilize some tools to help us narrow down those people which we can realistically harass. The tools available to us are as follows: PHONE: People will call us up and point out things that cause us to focus on a person for special harassment. "My neighbor is beating his wife" is a code phrase used often. This means we'll come out and give somebody some special harassment. Another popular one: "There's a guy breaking into a house." The harassment team is then put into action. CARS: We have special cops assigned to harass people who drive. They like to harass the drivers of fast cars, cars with no insurance or no driver's licenses and the like. It's lots of fun when you pick them out of traffic for nothing more obvious than running a red light. Sometimes you get to really heap the harassment on when you find they have drugs in the car, they are drunk, or have an outstanding warrant on file. RUNNERS: Some people take off running just at the sight of a police officer. Nothing is quite as satisfying as running after them like a beagle on the scent of a bunny. When you catch them you can harass them for hours to determine why they didn't want to talk to us. STATUTES: When we don't have PHONES or CARS and have nothing better to do, there are actually books that give us ideas for reasons to harass folks. They are called "Statutes"; Criminal Codes, Motor Vehicle Codes, etc...They all spell out all sorts of things for which you can really mess with people. After you read the statute, you can just drive around for awhile until you find someone violating one of these listed offenses and harass them. Just last week I saw a guy trying to steal a car. Well, there's this book we have that says that's not allowed. That meant I got permission to harass this guy. It's a really cool system that we've set up, and it works pretty well. We seem to have a never-ending supply of folks to harass. And we get away with it. Why? Because for the good citizens who pay the tab, we try to keep the streets safe for them, and they pay us to "harass" some people. Next time you are in my town, give me the old "single finger wave." That's another one of those codes. It means, "You can't harass me." It's one of our favorites |

The best is when it is night time and you can' even tell who is in the car. Somehow, it is profiling. A friend of mine that is a cop was sued by some black guy for some profiling accusation. Nevermind that the black guy ran a stop sign, at 330am on a rather poorly lit road, in a car with tinted windows, making it impossible for him to see who was driving until he walked up and the guy rolled the window down. 
Case was tossed pretty quickly and my cop buddys lawyer wanted to counter sue the guy. The black dude wound up leaving the US and went back to Africa though. |

Happened to me in Charlotte NC in 96 at 1:00AM. The cop had the temerity to tell me my tag light was out and ask me where I had been and where I was going.
He then asked if I had been drinking, Eventually he sent me on my way with a warning since I was four blocks from home and seemed sober. I always figured it was the pint of rare blood a black co-worker of my father's donated for a child hood surgery I had back in 1964 that gave cause for me to be profiled |
