LOL...ugh, I hate when people criticize the police, unless its something that may affect them. I got pulled over a few years back as a suspected drunk driver. I accidently went over one of the lane dividing lines. Only person who had been drinking that was in my car was the one that was 21 (a passenger). They kept me for 20 mins or so but I wasn't angry. Why? Because if they pull over someone who looks very slightly suspicious of being a drunk driver, they will get those that definitely are.

When you get stopped frequently and apparently there is no justification as to why your being pulled over obviously the next step is to think why was i pulled over. Is it my skin color, is it my car....what is it.?

So after a while you tend to grow some hate to cops.

I personally have family members in the D.E.A, and I hate em all!.
My uncle tells me all the time when he used to be a cop what he would look for when "profiling a person".

Backwards hat, a thug driving a nice car ......( He was a newark cop ) out of all those cases not one of them was innocent. So maybe these cops are practicing the same thing but on the wrong people.

and if they had gone over to you to investigate and detained you for a few minutes, it would have been "those fuggin' pigs had nothing better to do than harass me and keep me out in the cold and it was just because I was driving a civic/integra/etc."
