EFZ

Although Westdawg (for those who knew him from the old WX days) just sent me an article about an unarmed white dude who was shot by a black officer. That was encouraging. White cops were running up the score until that turn of events.

It figures that the shooting was in Salt Lake City. Everything is a bit Bizaaro there.

if its any consolation, they aren't too fond of rednecks either
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

I don't think it's much consolation to black people...or rednecks...or at least the ones that keep getting shot/harassed.

This may be a weird question, but if any of you guys have ever been pulled over or questioned by the police, have they ever asked what you do for a living?

can't say that I have - did have my car searched once and another time I had to take the field sobriety test. I have sinced learned with age that I am not in a position of leverage when dealing with the police. Anyone who thinks they are will get educated.

However, we're in the midst of a revolution here in police abuse thanks to cell phone cameras and that leverage will improve with time.

Just say "Nun-Ya".

When they look confused, say, "Nun ya goddamned bidness!"

I also hate the, "Where are you headed tonight?" line. How is that any of their business, either?

I have. By an African American Cop no less. He was awesome. Asked me where i worked. failed the follow the pen test so he took me in. Didn't cuff me. Only told me to put them on as we pulled up to the booking station. Blew A .000 and as he was driving me back to my car apologizing all the way I only asked to flip the lights on. I didn't sue. He was doing his job.

To be totally honest, I have had my fair share with run ins with cops. Been 10 years since but I would testify in court that I was treated much better dealing with African American cops. White cops are assholes

Not exactly, but I've been asked if I'm a student.
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

What type of purpose does the question "where do you work?" serve? I just have never understood. Is it to just get conversation going to see how nervous or clear I am?

No, it's more, "How exactly did this dude afford a Mercedes? Wonder if he stole it or bought it with drug money?"

This is a bit remedial, but Uncle Ray does a good job here for anyone who does not quite understand - in broad terms - how the economy works. Dude is crazy, in a way, but a brilliant investor. I have adopted a lot of his principles and philosophies over the past 5 years, or so.

They do us no favors by withholding showing the pictures of both Kuster and Garcia. Well played on the showing of the bloated carcass of Vaillancourt, though.
