Well which was it? A criminal defence attorney or a criminal defendant?

dude, you just lost cool points.

first i am a female...

second, i was joking about the weed with rudey.

third, it is my right to sit on the side of the road with my thumb up my ass if i want as along as i am not violating anyone elses rights!!!!

i was eating popeye's chicken on my lunch break filing out grad school applications with my girlfriend.

the fact that you say my grooming may be a problem, this is the year 2005, you ass. just because i wear loccs doesn't mean a thing. if i had on a 2pac, biggie or a mumia t-shirt should that have gotten me questioned, especially if i was in a parking spot already?


think before you answer, please!!!

first off....read the freaking beginning of the thread. i was in front of a university in tarrytown eating lunch and filling out grad school applications.

me and my girlfriend was the only person of color in the area. school was out for the afternoon.

my Poppa Buddha, my step father, my brother and two cousin are police officers. i know what CPR is. do you?


god, you sound like an idiot!!

*to be honest juding from the tone in my voice, i was giving the cop shit?*

yep another idiot has passed into this wayward system of ours. i feel for the kids you surround.

the funny thing about the way hotdamn thinks is he automatically assumed that i was doing something wrong.

the cop did not greet me in a mannerly fashion. he did not use CPR. When i asked him if there was a problem officer, he said yes. that i am my girlfriend were seen harassing students on the campus. my girlfriend goes to fordham university and had her books in her lap. although there were applications all in the front seat. i had to put them down to give him my license. this fool put his nose in my drink to see if i was drinking alcohol. and had the nerve to ask me if i was smoking weed, because i had chicken crumbs in my lap.


ooooooooooooooooooookkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!

from the jump i was polite and answered all his questions politely although they were rude. i did not use a tone or any kind.

i am very familiar with how police officers work. and i understand how they do there job but that was not protocol. it is very sickening to know that hot damn assumes by the tone of my thread that i was in the wrong.

being from florida, i have been profiled several times having a car with new york plates. i have jumped up and down 95 north and south and have passed through little towns that wait for people like me to pass through because they need to earn some kind of money for there little hick towns. i have heard all types of bob marley jokes, weed jokes, dread jokes just because of my physical appearance. not to mention the n word. of course these are the same towns that happened to be handing out guns and badges to those red necks that live in them.


so racial profiling happens....

i am sorry guys...i keep reading this post and i just makes me mad. it really does!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:


by the way..i wear red. so that makes me a Blood too, huh?

Why should it? So, because I sometime wear a Phish or a Grateful Dead t-shirt, that automatically make me a pothead or doing something illegal?

Actually, I didn't. I said I agreed with how the cop handled the situation.

Though I do think your earlier admission to using pot weakens your statement that the cop had no right to ask if you'd been smoking.

This from a white girl who dresses ridiculously conservatively and drives a 10 year old Volvo and STILL gets asked if she smoked any weed/had anything to drink tonight. THAT'S THEIR JOB. I don't complain about it. Apparently if I wore a Bob Marley tshirt I'd be justified in complaining?

What part, do you think, about the post title "I HATE COPS" and your tone in the thread MIGHT MAKE others think you weren't cordial and civil to the cop? This from a girl whose father, step brother, brother, and two cousins are cop?

Sorry, not buying this. Next.

This thread was a rant from a woman who was harrassed by a police officer and she wants to vent. The "tone" of this thread has nothing to do with her "tone" while speaking to the cop. You have no idea how she sounded while she was speaking to the cop. i would be mighty pissed too if I was harrassed by a cop.

You've never experience racial profiling, neither have I. But I've witnessed it first hand. You tell me when it's appropriate for a cop to pull someone over and repeatedly hurl racial slurs at them? The crime...an expired licence place sticker.

So, you hate all police officers based on one experience you had?

You are the smarterest ELAWYER ever. :)

And to throw some fun into this thread, perhaps Tom Earp went to People's College of Law!

Well you know what I read one time?

Janet Jackson likes Popeye's chicken...therefore since you were eating Popeye's you must be just like Janet and are planning to flash your nipple at the next group of schoolchildren you see and CONTRIBUTE TO THE MORAL DECAY OF THIS NATION!! :eek:

-33, who is now really glad that she had to drive a few extra blocks and put her car in the Park & Ride next to Popeye's. :D

I used to love eating Popeye's. It was the best. Don't get me started on teh bisquits. If I ate Popeye's, you could forget about work for the day. Heck, some days I did a Taco Bell and Popeye's combo lunch. Those were the good days.

--But now I'm a vegetarian and someone stole something good from my life :(

Tell me where I said I hated cops?

Popeye's chicken alone would keep me from being a vegetarian. You're obviously a stronger man than I.

What I miss the most is being able to order the crave case from white castle or like 40 tacos from taco bell with my boys and going to town.
