And how... Hell, I need to move into your neighborhood. Although if I did, we might exceed critical blackness mass, and both end up S & F'ed, lol. If you're out there at 1a.m. in Champion sweats, there is a robbery in progress, lol.
One of these days we have to talk off forum fam. Real talk, you are a talented smart guy you need to be on the come up
Lmao Ore, I think last time I checked 8% of the population is black so we got room for another black. Especially a well educated lawyer, not like you're a rapper or some shit
Ain't gonna lie I have no clue how they deal with bm they don't know. I made sure from day one they were going to know me. Introduced myself and everything.
Now that was smart. Let them know you have a job and come in peace. By the end of the shift everyone in the department knew about you, lol.
you laugh but hell yeah. I knew that I was living in an area that didn't have many people that looked like me especially in their 20s (when I moved here) Don't want any issues, I ain't got shit to prove
Survival homie it ain't a game. It's a fair trade off to live in a place where my very pretty girlfriend doesn't have to worry about get harassed by corner dudes. My last gf lived in Yonkers on Warburton. It was on the nicer side but walk down the street a few blocks and you got motherfuckas hugging the block like its their job. It's not the kind of environment to have successful relationships in. Too many dumb disrespectful dudes.
True, but I give TDK props for doing that. It's bullshit that he had to do that, but it totally defuses any hostility that could have been brewing beneath the surface. Now no one can say that it was a case of him "fitting the description"...
Exactly!!! And I have to be fair to cops, they are a lot more at ease when they recognize and know you. And this is a small town so you see them off duty in bars and in the supermarket so everyone is well acquainted. Like I said I have no clue how they deal with black guys that aren't from around here but they treat me really well. I have gotten off a bunch of times when I should have gotten a ticket. That's why this bs no snitching no talking to cops shit has to stop. When there's a bigger sense of community dudes are less inclined to beat you while handcuffed no matter how much of a douchebag otherwise.
Ull never have 'community' until cops are required to live in the areas they patrol, at least when it comes to the cities Be real cousin As far as I know, some cities don't even make their cops live in them Lol
You ain't lying and that's the problem but then again if I were a cop with a family in Yonkers I wouldn't want to live anywhere near those animals (the bad guys not the good people). It's a tough problem but it is a problem worth solving instead of the shit we got now.
