I get the fear. Don't get their attention. Float under the radar. I'm white, don't wear a turban, and I'm pretty good at skating. I'm not the droid you are looking for.
If you see undercover cop, Harrison Ford...hide!

they aren't your friend
We are in a world where you can go learn. Why aren't you doing this.
That being said, minimizing your exposure to those that provide said security by enforcing the law is a strong policy. Can’t zip your wiener up in your fly if you ain’t wearing pants.

I'm sure cops are proportionally just as racist, bigoted, and abusive as the rest of us.
There was a recent case, not lethal fortunately, where a black kid was told to sit down on the curb and stick legs out, he did that but had knees partially bent. Because of that the white cop tazed him and was video taped by a resident there. You think that had nothing to do with white cop V black kid? I am 100% sure if that had been white cop, white kid, there would have been no tazing. That black kid was doing absolutely nothing disrespectful, was not swearing at the cop or anything like that, just had his knees partially out, legs half extended. For that he got tazed. Clearly a cop on a power trip.

But, the great majority of cops, be they white, yellow, brown or black...are men and women of solid integrity.
Let's not state things that could be roughly equivalent of: Because a black man robbed and murdered the Korean owner of a Bedford-Stuyvesant liquor store, that all Brooklyn black men are bad guys who hate Koreans.
Originally posted by @wolfe63Definitely. But what percentage of criminal cops should we tolerate?

Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-dukeI guess that depends on just what business is being discussed🙂
Well, not during a business meeting.
Originally posted by @hand-of-hecateOh. Maybe. I'm in a desert though. Clothes that let your balls breathe while shading your head works better here.
