re: SEC Great Marcus Lattimore racially profiled

Every time I get pulled over these bastards show up 5-6 deep and want to search my car. It may be racial profiling, I don’t know, but I know that it is definitely police over reach. They are ALWAYS trying to search people’s stuff. Shite is old.

Damn. I knew the food reviews were crazy, didn't think it was Bronson crazy though.

Same exact thing happened to me when I was 17 driving from Houston, Tx back to Lafayette, La. Cops pulled me outta the car, put me on the side of the road. One cop questioned me while the other searched my vehicle, then they got a K-9.
I personally lean toward the personal freedoms stance, and believe it was overkill. Im white. I just thought it was a bit overboard, and frustrating - which is what it was. It happens to white people too. Not everything is about race - save the argument for times when people are actually being racist.

A friend of mine lived in a duplex with his parents. His parents went out of town.
My buddy and I were hanging around and watching an NFL game.
The old lady that lived in the other side called the police and told them no one was supposed to be at home, and the house was being burglarized.
Next thing we know the house is surrounded by cop cars. We were looking out the windows wondering what the hell was going on.
I heard a noise at the back door and walked over and opened it. Big black cop standing there with a 12 gauge stuck about an inch off the end of my nose.
All he said was, "boy, don't move."
I wish I could say I took that shotgun away from him, but I froze like a statue.
They handcuffed us and marched us out in front of all the neighbors. Then brought that old lady to identify my buddy. I took the handcuffs and told us you can go back inside. No apologies no nothing.
We did not treat it as that big of a deal. I don't even know if I told my parents about it when I got home.
Maybe I should have screamed racism?

I guess you didn't smoke pot in high school? If you were white and middle class in the hood you were absolutely profiled in my home town, because 99.9% of the time you were there to buy weed.

Did Lattimore ever make any money?
Poor guy got hosed. Always heard he was a nice dude.
He’s one of those tragic stories you hear about.

So you opened the door to a cop who was there to investigate a possible ongoing burglary... Yeah that's not exactly a cop just hanging a 12 gauge on your nose because you are white and he wasn't.

Ah. Thought citadel was a military school and then you went to serve
It's a "liberal arts College" (Funny because I didn't know many liberals in my time there) with a military component. Kind of like Texas A&M. The only true military requirement is that you have take 8 semesters of ROTC as part of your course work. Aside from that it's just like Carolina or Clemson except they lock you in the barracks every night.

Nope. frick you. Just like Lattimore. It was racial profiling.
That's how that BS works. Good for one good for all.
We were in the house minding our own business.

I wasn't in high school. I was a grown man in a suit and a nice car.
I smoked pot for 25 years. I never had to go to the projects to buy it. Have I bought it there? Yes. Maybe three or four times. Simply because I was in the right place when an opportunity arose. I never had to go to the projects to look for it.

Lots of liberal tears in this thread.
Please shed more, with stores running low on supplies, we could use those tears for the homeless.
