Angry Racist Experience with the Evo

I dropped off my friend at the airport an hour ago and a cop comes up to me and starts talking to me ... asking if the cars mine and shiit ... and he said he's gonna write me up a ticket for having a license plate cover thats smoked ... I got a license plate cover from pepboys and its not even that dark ... u can clearly see my license plate and I've seen many people use it around here... he also asked me where I'm from too after he wrote me a ticket.. to be honest I wasn't too mad bout the ticket seeing that theres not much I could do at that point.. but what got me pissed was that he said and i quote "theres enough of you chinese people here in the states driving your cars" ...

I'm just wondering if people out there have had racial profiling happen to them.. cause quite frankly this isn't the first time I got write up a ticket for some BS reason.. I just feel that its wrong to make false assumptions and judgements ...

Wow, that's very blatant racist pig!

Take the porker to courts and tell the judge exactly what he said! Rednecks think they can get away with anything these days. Show 'em they don't own **** in this country but bunch trailers.

You gotta stand up for yourself and other minorities and don't let these kind of B.S. get through.

Take pics of other domestic cars w/ smoked plates to the judge and tell him and the porker stop profiling and get their fat lazy asses off chasing real criminals!!!

I would definitely take the badge number off of the ticket and report him for conduct unbecoming of a public servant. Talk to the seargent of the PD where he is from. Do NOT take this lightly.

Get the cops badge number. Sound like something IA (Internal Affairs) would drool over.

My guess is that he is just a hater.
Did he give you the ticket for the cover?

I'd file some complaints. At least it will get you on the record for the 'next time'... if unfortunately there is a next time

That too people wonder why other's are racist, if you want to be treated like equals, let's treat EVERYONE like equals...I'd hate anyone if he called me a redneck or gay just out of stereotyping...same with stereotyping someone for being asian, just IMO, but that cop was definitly being rude and racial profiling, I'd take it in and report it ASAP
