    Because most of the cops here are racist.

    My buddies bike was stolen by white kids. I called the cops for him. The police officer, which just happens to be that fat one in the last picture (there are only like 10-15 cops in my 'township'), came up to us. Asked the situation. When he wanted to get into the thiefs detail, first thing out of his mouth was "was he black?"

    Going to tell me that's not racist?

    Not really. Not too far away there is a very trashy, ghetto looking neighborhood. It is an all black neighborhood. I know because I went to school with kids from that neighborhood and they told me so. Tell me why they always report it is a white cop that tries to put something on them.

    One kid was telling a story in school where him and his three black friends were pulled over by a white cop and the cop did not tell them there were speeding or anything and wanted to search his car. He told the cop straight up that he better give him a ticket or put a charge on him for something because he knows the only reason he got pulled over because there were four black kids in the car. He was let go... Now can I say this story is true? no. Because I only heard it. But it certainly wouldn't surprise me...

    It should match, if it doesn't then I would be interested to see how many black officers applied for a position. Also it seems there is alot of rumors and what ifs with your stories.

    This is like me overhearing somebody saying they saw a fire truck going emergency (lights and sirens) and then they pull into a grocery store and cut the lights and sirens. This happens, we are going to a call and we get cancelled because they either no longer need our help or another unit is on scene and can handle. However, Joe Public just thinks we want to run people off the road to go get dinner when we just happen to pull in a parking lot to turn around.

    Just curious, what township do you live in?

Then they search the car, then they start searching the grass acting like he threw out a weapon or drugs as they was getting pulled over. Turns out the black kid was 16 so he was violating curfew while his friend was over 17, no curfew for 17 year olds. They let the white driver go. They put the black kid in handcuffs and in the back of the car and went on their way to the station.

    Am I the only one who thinks these cops are racist?

    A couple months ago, they pulled over a black woman. Took her out of the car, searched her, searched the car, gave her a sobriety test, and had her car towed... why? Because she had no insurance. They needed two squad cars and a captain for that.

    I live in a 95%+ white neighborhood, no black cops at all.

    I got some pics (bad ones)

    Two cars


    The other two cars and the driver's car


    Black kid out of the car


    Black kid being searched


    Talking to the kid


    Searching the car


    Two cops talking, left; kid sitting on the hood


    Right before they put him in cuffs and took him away
    Yea the cops are the ones who dont have lives..you think they would be on a forum that has nothing to do with the police writing about them..and im pretty sure you said that the african american kid was past curfew...and the white kid wasn't....i dont see any racism here..sounds like something somebody would put up who had nothing better to do.

    Because it sure seems it. Your first post, you've since you've registered is an attack at me.

    Cheer up buck-o. I'm sure someone else will sell you a pastel male for $60.

    Because someone was past curfew they are entitled to being searched and their friends car while he was not violating curfew?

    Man, when I lived in Chicago, you get busted for curfew, you get thrwn in back of the car (no handcuffs) and they take you to your parents/guardians house.

    You can't fake it really well with a fire tuck. People know if there is a fire or not.

    You do, however, see police turning on their sirens to get past red lights or wherever they want to go fast.
