Probably mentioned already but Ironic how a cop is called a rat by speaking out against injustice yet the whole systems depends on rats to put people in jail whether innocent or not. Ohh the mandatory saying fukk Cops

Sad that it has to come to this, but at the same time, those are the ones committing the crimes out here :manny:

I remember when I was around them ages, cops would straight abuse my civil rights, but on the other side of that coin I was wearing baggy jeans, sagging them too, rocking huge sweaters and hoodies, at some point I had corn rows, I was high a lot, I was carrying myself to fit the profile.

Once I switched it up, started wearing more fitted clothes ... and an underrated one too was once my vision started fading and I got glasses, never had that problem again anywhere I went. Started carrying myself different, started getting treated with a little more respect in these new york street.

Stop it. Blacks and whites use and sell illegal drugs at the same rate but blacks are arrested at 10x the rate of whites and are sentenced to more time for the same convictions. So it's not that blacks and Hispanics are committing all the crimes, blacks and brown people are just the ones being checked for. This stop and frisk policy is blatantly racist and you're trying to justify it. "Cops use to abuse my civil rights but it was my fault because I used to dress a certain way" :snoop: You sound like a straight up house ******.

If i were a black cop I'd post up in a good neighbor hood and start friskin folks...

I guess we just don't do the whole probable cause and illegal search and seizure.

Incidentally isn't this unconstitutional?[/QUOTE]

absolutely 100% unconstitutional. but 9/11 changed what they can get away with there.

incidently nyc is one of the safest big cities in america. how nyc heads put up with this behavior is beyond me.

This shyt upsets me to NO END as an adult. Like...dudes are really ok with this? Living in a society where we have to dress a certain way or look a certain way in order to avoid scrutiny from police?

Think about where you come from...I keep telling cats that in the grand scheme of things, historically speaking, the time when blacks were lynched in America is not that far off. There are people who are old enough to remember lynching and Jim Crow laws. Think about that. People who are alive TODAY are old enough to remember when a black dude could get lynched in the South and it would be like :yeshrug:

(And now a black man has his finger on the button :umad: )

I get what you are saying

But if the 90% of the dudes cops catch doing crimes dress a certain way... why wouldn't the cops focus their efforts on people who dress like criminals?

Take the racial element out of it. Say you have a white dude in a town w/a meth problem looking tweakish. You don't think it would make sense for cops to be more scrutinizing of someone who looks like a meth addict than someone who doesn't?

I don't think profiling is the problem. Profiling is a key police tool that works. The problem is the unconstitutional frisking. Yes the system is fukked up. But until it gets fixed it makes zero sense to voluntarily subject yourself to it.

Profiling only "works" to keep blacks as a permanent underclass. Again, blacks and whites use and sell illegal drugs at the same rate yet blacks are arrested at 10 times the rate of whites and sentenced to more time for the same offenses. So while the cops are profiling and targeting blacks/browns, they are ignoring whites who are committing the same crimes. That means that profiling does not work, c00n.

Before you turn into the internet's Malcolm x put my comments in the proper context. I'm talking about New York City right now, not some broad, vague statistic you're quoting. In NYC stop and frisk work, if you wanna quote stats go pull those up. I'm not saying its right, or fair, but hey that's life. I made an observation, I made an adjustment to my behavior, and I saw the results, sorry if that offends your ideal vision of humanity. Either way your being offended will change nothing. In New York the cops took control of the streets, and the tactics they use are not pretty, not nice, and not fair, but they are effective. And that's my observation. Chicago could not take place in New York, not under the approach the nypd takes to handling these streets.

And lol @ people using the phrase "house ******" in the year 2013. shyt is meaningless, and just a slogan for crab in the barrell thinking. :mjpls:

See the thing is, it doesn't matter if we're ok with it, that's the unfortunate thing about all of this. We come into the world that's already in progress. The world doesn't care what you're ok with. There's certain battles worth fighting, and then other times it takes a big man to know when he's small.

Just change clothes and go.:steviej:
