The NYPD is skulking through the L train demanding IDs from Black and Latino men, again with zero justified cause or explanation as to why.

    I got questioned by the police when waiting for the train in New York (state) once. I’m a white guy, though I had really long hair at the time. They came up and said someone had reported someone suspicious. I was like, well, I’m waiting for the train and my friends. They were like someone saw you looking in that car suspiciously. I said, that’s my car. They asked if I had proof so I opened the door with the key.

    Then my friend and her shitty little brother showed up. The brother yells “YO YOU GOT MY WEED??”

    Luckily the cops realized that was an idiot 13 year old white kid, and they left.

      Luckily you were white. If you’d been anything else they would’ve been all over the car, maybe even planted something, and been like “well, we had to take the kid seriously just in case”.
