    Default Racial Profiling.. At is best.. a big FU to TN finest

    So today as we driving back from Gatlinburg we decided, well had no choice to come down 75 due to the snow... anyways.. as we are coming down the hwy after grabbing some food we had a caravan of 6 cars.

    I see Jaime hit his brakes twice.. sign of 5.0 up ahead.. but not really worried we were not really speeding or doing nothing dumb, just cruisin.

    As we passed 2 TN cruisers I see one pulled out and just watched him with my rearview mirror... I tell my girl, blah there comes one of the cops.. but We are not sweating it really because like I said we were not doing shit.
    The cops starts cruising right next to me at about 65.. Im thinking to myself.. if you going to pull me over. just pull me over... 5 minutes down the rd.. bam.. lights on...

    Im like, I knew it. anyways, He comes up to me, Im ready with License in hand and insurance.. he doesnt say a word until he looks at my license and insurance card.. decides to ask for registration, I do not have it on me.

    Then he asked me, do you have a permit for your gun, I said yes sir, handed him my permit.

    Then he ask me to step out of the car and starts running his mouth about my gun.

    He says 1st thing I shouldve said was I had a gun with me..
    But since I do not know TN laws I decided to keep my Mouth shut and just listen, (In GA you dont have to tell the cop that you have a weapon aslong as you have your CCW.)
    Anyways, He said thats get you in trouble... Im like ok.
    Then he goes back in my car and pulls the gun out and said is this gun register, I said no.. He said it has to be register.
    Again, I dont know TN laws... as far as I know guns are not required to be register in GA.. anyways, 2 more troopers pull up.
    The other 2 officers get out of there cars and start looking at me funny.
    At this point I already know whats going.. But since my shit is straight I keep my cool and just cooperate.
    Im freezing my ass off since I left my jacket in the car.. one officers ask me are you cold.. i said yes.. he said you have a jacket in the car yeah, he ask me if he can go grab it for me I said, sure.. As hes going in my car, you can tell he snooping around..he grabs my jacket, starts searching my jacket..then hands it to me.
    Then The other cop is running my gun, make sure is clean...
    While they are busy doing that, they are asking me.. what I do, where I work, what Kinda of Name is "julio" where I was at, where Im goin.and all this other BS.
    Then the other officers starts asking my girl questions while she still in the car.
    He comes back and ask me if this is my car, I said yeah... He said something 'sorda mumbling" or I couldnt really hear him well due to the other cars driving by.. we are having problems pulling up registration info on the car..
    I was like, The car is legit so Im not really worried,, then he tells me, make sure you call your tag office and make sure info is correct on the car... I was like Ok.
    have a good day.

    I kept my cool through the whole incident, Dont think It wouldve been a good idea for me to smart of with the officers even though I do think they had no right to pull me over.. actually, I was never told why they pulled me over..

    This is not the 1st time this happens.. Fucked up.. But hey thats life...

    Sucks man. But it's good you kept cool, no telling what kind of shit they could have tried to stick you with, even if it didn't last, a night in jail is definitely a buzz kill. Sucks about the racial profiling.

    We did. We got off the next exit, but then Paul told us what happened. We figured you'd catch up to us once we got back on the hwy. We took it easy for a long time but we never saw you catch up so I thought you'd turned off or something.

    That was lame as hell. I saw him pull out, but I thought he was coming after the P'up truck in the fast lane. We slowed down wayyyy before they clocked any of us. I picked him up with plenty of time, and I was hoping yall saw my brake lights. Atif had called Paul and told him that they were there, but by the time Paul called back to me I'd already picked them up on Radar.

    It was still lame that he profiled you like that. I guess they were just bored.

    ^^^ Did anyone ever mistake for a genius?

    Well let's see here:

    1. I-75 has long been known as Cocaine Lane. Major drug trafficing hwy
    2. A guy of Hispanic looking decent driving a nice car..new Audi TT
    3. Majority of people using I-75 for drug running are of Cuban/Hispanic decent coming out of Miami
    4. White, down home cops in a Southern state
    5. Asking what kind of name "Julio" is....WTF does that mean, anyway?
    6. Being pulled over for reason, everything was good, didn't even give a reason for initial stop

    Has all the tell-tale signs of racial profiling. Whether it was or not, I don't know. No one but the cop knows. But it sure fits. Later, QD.

    what the fucc do you care?
    but, since you had to ask...
    If it was late at night I think it would be hard to determine what ethnicity the driver is at 65mph. Not that it would be "easy" to determine during the day.
    I've been pulled over for some BS like he did b4. Later, Your Daddy
