There are bad cops, and good police officers... That's an example.

Well I was driving at about 3 in the morning. I was cruising the speed limit of 45 cause I know if went 5 over he would have pulled me over anyways. Well he gets behind me and 2 mins later I saw 3-4 cops get right behind. I got pulled over and I waited for one of the 6 cops to come and talk to me. I was tired to so of course if you look tired he thinks your on something so he started asking all these questions. Well we finally get to the point where he tells me what I was doing. He pulled me over because he said the color on his comp did not match my green car. He thought it was blue. And I was like thats impossible. And he went back to his comp and came back and said yep the cars color said it was black. I was like youre a ****ing dumb ***. You just said my car was blue. So it was really dumb.

this is why its a good idea to carry these digital voice recorder with you
they are small and compact when you encounter matters like this just record it and sue the cop

Doesn't everytime the blue lights come on, the video camera turns on too? If so, it should've record the racist comment and when you go to court you should ask to show the tape. If it somehow disappear, it should give the judge a clue to who's lying.

A few years ago Before I traded the Cobra for an EVO, I remember being at a McDonalds and overhearing a conversation. Basically the person said "I cant believe that asian owns that cobra"......I simply smiled.

I agree with vtsnake, and since most of us here drives a performance car that attracts attention, especially from the cops, avoiding tints or other ricy exterior cosmetics on your car will certainly lessen your chances of attracting unncessary attention.(Saves you alot of cash too for some significant power mods)

He called you a chinese person. He didn't call you a racially derogatory name. He didn't burn a cross on your lawn. The Irish had to deal with much worse when they came to America. You got it e-z.
