You have never seen me call the cops pigs, pricks and dicks, none of that. I have problems with the law because I say its not impossible for a cop to be racist? LOL, only in GA..
    If im wrong, Im sorry... I just know any time we have a debate on these issues you have always come across as disliking the government, police, etc on the topics we all discuss.

None of mommys money. Ive sat down and ate at restaurants like Chops, Lobster Bar, and Ruth Chris before I was legal drinking age and people do the same things you see in movies. Ever go to eat and have somone tell me you the average price of a meal when you enter or ask to pay upfront when you order. All my life since I was first able to work Ive always saved so I can have some things nicer than the average person. When I moved to GA, I see people by some of the same things I like. But its like I am the only one gets pulled over, stopped and questioned, car VIN checked, car searched and researched.
    If this shit happens to you, That is fuckin wrong and total Bullshit. I dont care what color your skin is, If you work hard for your money and have the money to spend, you should be allowed to and not be asked "If you can afford it" before you sit to eat dinner. Places like that should be blasted and publicly called out, because thats the type of racial BS that keeps things from moving on.

Do you think a man can go back into society after living in a state prison for even 5 years? Every night fearing rape? Being in a room the size of your bathrooms 20 hours a day? Man, being locked up is something that cant be described. And they dont lock medium criminals up with big criminals, understand? The guy that is there for DUI is locked up with the guy for murder. The guy from forgery with the guy for sodomy, the guy for insurance fraud is there with the guy for armed robbery. So who do you think the ones who are getting "Butt Raped" are?
    You know what Frank.... Im sorry but dont think I nor anyone will feel pitty for these people. They know in full when they do a crime and they get caught, this is what happens. But instead of being a decent part of society they decide to do shit the way they want. I dont know what its like to be locked up, but ya know what.... Thats not something I will ever have to worry about because I dont do shit to get me put there. If they are afraid of getting raped in the ass, Dont kill,rape, steal, sell drugs, imbezel, etc that get you put there. If you serve 15 years you did something pretty hardcore to get there. Jail isnt supposed to be fun, but its not harsh enough when they have no problem going back time and ime again, Why? Cause they get playtime, Workout time, Cable TV, Showers, 3 meals a day and shelter.

Citizens who have lived based on the laws of survival, not the laws of the county. Do you know how hard it is to get a decent job with a felony record? One that makes it possible to pay $123/mo in probation and find somewhere to stay? What if you have kids? A sickness? And you cant find anything for more than $6/hr? Is that person omre likely to take up the $6/hr job or trying one of the ways of making money he learned while in jail, like selling drugs? Hmm... There is more to it than just locking people up. I think the current penal system is all messed up. But I guess I will be criticized for being too kind to criminals, but my point is that just throwing people in a box doesnt work. The system needs reworking. Things like NOLO/1st Offender need to expunge arrest when the terms are finished seeing that A NO LO OR 1st OFFENDERS PLEA IS NOT AN ADMISSION OF GUILT. Look it up, dont assume it.
    Again.... Do the crime, You pay the price.... You know doing the crime that your life will be changed and you will be looked down on by sosciety... Again... No sympathy from me, sorry. And thats for ANY race that in prison, Again, I can care less what color someone is, People need to pay for what they do.
