DWB And welcome To The Club
[QUOTE=VeryHorny; 1874857]I was out earlier today, driving along when suddenly I had blue lights flashing behind me. Turns out the cop wanted to inform me that a brake light was not working. I thought "Thank you I will get it changed at the next station, RIGHT?" next comes the License, registration and insurance. All good. Then the questions "where are you going, where have you been, why are you out here" then can I have permission to search your car?
I answer that Its none of his concern where I am going or been and this is just where I am driving at the moment and NO he does not have permission. Now I am out of car, in handcuffs and waiting on a k-9. I was detained nearly an hour and for nothing more than a brake light that was burnt out. Nothing was found and I was free to go, hell I was not even shopping at the time.
A word to the wise. Check everything before you go out! Lights, clean car, all your paperwork you never know.
Be Safe[/QUOTE]Sorry to hear this happened to you but many of us non caucasian mongers experience this regularly and not just in the monger zones. I have complained but have not gotten any results other than the officer was doing his job. I know to expect this so I keep my vehicle mechanically sound and my papers up to date. It does not prevent LE from the stops with the usual line,"you touched the center line" or "your touched the white line on the right side of the road". They create probable cause and always, never fail to ask the "may I search your vehicle" ensues. I always counter with no but I get the usual,"What do you have to hide?" which I counter with,"Nothing to hide but my 4th amendment rights to protect." I have never been put in cuffs but I have had been delayed up to 2 hours waiting on K-9's to come and sniff around my vehicle. They have never alerted. To prove these stops were BS, I even begged the officer to give me a ticket so I can take it to court as I wnat to pay for committing a violation of the traffic code. I am always refused as they know a judge will have their ass for bringing such a trivial charge to a busy court and besides a BS charge at that for not one driver drives in a complete perfect line and does not at one point in their drive touch lines on either the right or left side of the road.
These are cases of DWB (driving while black) and it is unfortunate that the non white brothers are now experiencing this too but at least it is not a matter of routine for you as it is for us. I am glad you were able to get some justifiable action in your case but in 99. 9% of the cases the officer just continues with this BS action.
Be safe out there and happy mongering.

You could have nicely declined and not got searched maybe. That answer. No way I would have said that.

What to avoid in posting ads
I was going over backpage in Miami and saw this post. I don't know if it is a post or a blog. I started reading and gave up. What really amazed me is that she wrote: "Here is the long story made short, a summary of the text that follows below:". If this is the short version of the story, how will be the long version then. I don't know if she wrote the piece but if she did, then she is in the wrong business. She can better use her talent with orlando Sentinel or Miami herald. My head is just spinning from part of the readings.
