HotDamn, I think what people are saying is that police are not supposed to generalize people by following stereotypes

Of course many of them do. And a lot of them believe that is being proactive in their jobs. For example, they pull you over after 10 PM at night and say you were swerving so they can see whether you are drunk. They shouldn't do that but they do.

Or they pull you over on a pretext to see whether you might be carrying drugs in the car.

Also, I don't think hotdamn was being intentionally misleading by saying she works in law enforcement. Its unfair to imply she is lying or something in an effort to make her arguments seem less valid.

I would feel harrassed also if I were in budha ma ma's position.
