An OJ moment is when a black person who loves white society and believes that white society actually loves them back finds out they only love and care for him when he is entertaining them or keeping the *other* black people in their place. He's not like *them*, he's one of the good ones. Then, when something racist happens to him, he is reminded that he is indeed still black.

To call a superior officer names (the hell with the Bro) or the disdain they displayed when he corrected them and gave them his rank, was unexceptionable. it was clearly evident they felt because they were white and he was black to use coarse language towards the detective.

Fear? He didn't feel ANYTHING besides privileged, and it could have got him killed. He jumped out of that car an *EXACT 5 SECONDS* after he stopped the vehicle... It was not "A few minutes after" as he stated here. He put himself "in the fire" and could have been mowed down with that level of stupidity.

@@ayten3617 I, too, have had my ass whooped for no reason other than the fact of the cop didn't like me. Sad part is I was the one that called them trying to report my car stolen. I was arrested and beaten in the back of the police department. I was slammed up against walls, had my head busted open, then slammed on the ground, boot to the neck, then picked up and choked out, this process repeated several times, all while my hands were behind my back in handcuffs and lasted just under 5 mins. I was charged with resisting arrest and assault on a law enforcement officer. I sat in the city jail and was booked 24 hours later then sent over to the county jail. While they were booking me there was another woman screaming about blood being all over the wall. That was my blood they didn't even bother cleaning up from the night before. I fought back just not right in that moment. I lawyered up and filed a complaint. All charges against me were dropped. Unfortunately for the cops everything that took place was on video and audio. All that is to say I totally understand and as far as being a prick goes, pretty much all of em do that, I agree. But at the same time, if you look up the numbers, all over, it's very obvious; the statistics don't lie. Black people are racially profiled more so than any other race in this country. It also speaks volumes that this man that works in the department himself and knows what "really goes on" is willing to admit it was racial profiling. I also personally had a black friend of mine I went to school with who became a police officer and eventually a detective before he quit. I asked him what happened and he just shook his head and said he got tired of all the racism. There's another white lady I know who is a College Professor now that my mom knows personally. She, too, was an ex cop. The woman has a heart of gold and has always wanted to do everything for the right reason. She became a cop for all the right reasons. Even she had to quit the force because of what the higher-ups told them to do with people of color. And according to her they also generally didn't like her because she was a white woman and she had a black boyfriend. It sucks anytime you're mistreated by the cops and they do miss treat all races. Unfortunately black people are disproportionately affected.

"He believes he was racially profiled" HOLD UP!!! "Racially profiling" Is accepted by most, to do to some, but not others? HMMM to do to some and not others? Sounds like they love dividing us, seems most us fall for it.. Maybe even enjoy it. I myself had this happen plenty times, I know other white folks this happens to all the time to too.. Its just what cops do. been pulled over hella times for being in what the police (white, black, Asian cops,) referred to as "predominantly black neighborhoods".. if ur white they'll just straight up tell You, flat out, like You dont look like you belong here BOY, what are ya' doing down here, where ya coming from where ya going, along with a billion other irrelevant questions they shouldn't be asking.. call it fishing.. I dont even know how many times ive been pulled over, just to have them pull us out (me an my girl), search us and our car and just let us Go, with no ticket or anything. No matter the name on the plate, if I'm in a Subaru, Ford, 2500, the vehicle dont matter.. Ive been pulled out of Bodegas, as I was trying to get a drink, after basketball, police Physically drag me out because "their conducting an investigation" and its a predominantly black neighborhood and apparently some shit about drugs down there.. But what that got to do with me, I'm saying, how is it acceptable. Shit like that happens all the time. I was the only white kid in my high school too, should I be locked up for that. Like wtf. White cops, black cops , Asian cops it dont matter, they all do the same BS.. Their jobs is to Bully folks, Judge them, ASSume shit, suspect everyone, treat folks like crap, dont follow the laws themselves. Lol, any y'all ever tried exercising those "RIGHTS" were suppose to have, out in the trenches when its just YOU alone , with multiple officers against you. YEAH RIGHT good luck explaining to them your rights .LOL I was in a UBER in Cincinnati, November 15 2021, someone ran a stop sign, hit the UBER, totals both cars, when cops arrive, they wanted everyone off their phones, they loudly demanded so, I guess I didnt put mine away fast enough so the officer grabs my arm that was holding my phone to my ear, (Mind you I'm not a driver of either vehicles, just a passenger in a UBER that was in wreck), I end up getting thrown to the pavement, my phone still on the line, my girl listened for almost a hour, as they arrested me, and talked about what to charge me with.. They didnt even ask me anything or my name nothing, until I was in back of cop car.. WITH two broken fingers (right middle and ring) from them trying to cuff me, I had fractured ribs on both sides, from them kneeing and kicking me.. After that cop slammed me, another came and put his shin on my neck, while his hand on back of my head , he pushed my face into the gravel an concrete trying scratch me up, they were kicking the shit out me. I was booked for resisting arrest and obstruction. Because I had no ID and the cop didnt believe my name was real. Again they didnt ask my name until I was in a cop car arrested, so how is that why I was under arrest and resisted???/ wtf. Cincinnati Ohio police department district 4.. I wish I could get money out of that shit. F 12!!!

Since your comment, an IOPC report has stated that black people are stopped and searched 7x more and Asians 2x more than Caucasians. Since the murder of Sarah Everard, girls and women are more fearful of police. More officers are being found guilty of rape and sexual assault of civilians and female police colleagues.

[@misterdeeds2172]

This is most uncommon, while at the same time this is the kind of shit that happens every damn day in Kansas City, MO with its policing. The KCMO PD has a long history of abusing authority, especially when dealing with minorities. Just days ago another suit against the KCMO PD was settled for $325,000 that stemmed from the use of excessive force. In that incident the officers from the KCMO PD approached a 17 year-old black boy who was siting in his car on a local high school property. He was there waiting on two friends. They intended to participate in a school sanctioned event. Upon arrival the cops ordered the young man out of his vehicle. Immediately upon exiting his vehicle he was violently thrown to the ground, punched, kicked, and then tasered as two officers sat upon his chest. This occurred in 2019. Since 2014 10.8 million tax-payer dollars have been shelled out to parties who have sued after having been abused by KCMO PD officers. The vast majority of the victims have been minority members of the community. So this happens all the damn time in KCMO. What is most uncommon is that a cop was targeted, and then went public with what happened to him. He may want to retire or seek employment elsewhere now that he has failed to maintain the thin blue line's demands for secrecy.

Every other officer I knew, or worked with, KNEW THIS. I drove unmarked police vehicles and was stopped once, without incident. This was obviously a racially motivated stop on the detective, which continued even AFTER he was recognized as a police officer. The video of the stop angered me greatly. As a black officer it hits home in unspeakable ways. Stay strong detective.
