I hate it when I go to the streets to buy Crack and they think I am a cop... Can't stand being stereotyped like that.

I had a hearing in Dallas and was driving down I-20. In Texas, we were stopped around Marshall for going "4 over". The stop was about three minutes long as the trooper quickly figured out we weren't drug mules.


I have been profiled in a several spots driving through Louisiana with an out of state license plate.

You are way over thinking this and trying to make it racial. You were driving a piece of crap car with out of state plates while admittedly driving over the speed limit and later while making an improper lane change. For all you know you were not ticketed for both infractions because of the black guy with you.

There was a sign on the interstate that said "Caution ... Drug Checkpoint Ahead." It was by a rarely used exit.

Yeah it's still there. Makes me laugh every time I pass by it. I had a girlfriend that lived in the boons off that exit and was coming back from a doctor's appt in Shreveport, I took the exit and within a minute, woot woot. She called just as he'd started questioning me, saw her contact photo when my phone lit up and said hell that's Bailey, you're good to go man he knew her from going to the store she worked at and let me on my way.

Apparently every black person ever, even when they’re going 25 over the speed limit.

Call it what you want, but I was once followed almost 2 miles to my home after picking up my daughter up from the school pickup line. He watched us pull in the driveway, evidently he made a couple blocks before returning a few minutes later and knocked on the door wanting to see my ID. He claimed a vehicle fitting my description had just been involved in a hit and run, yet he had plenty of time to pull me over if he wanted and he didn’t. That’s what really upset me about the situation. I gave him my ID to avoid conflict, but it’s always bothered me the way he went about it.

Yes, and they took it to the Grand Jury, but their case was weak, and no indictment was returned. eventually they chose to drop all charges.
