Agreed, some cashier going to tell me to eat somewhere else because I can’t pronounce something…
Just push the right buttons and give me my receipt, sweetheart.
The incident became the national poster child for racial profiling for several years. I honestly don’t know if my buddy and his partner pulled the van over because they saw 4 young black guys with out-of-state plates or because it was legitimately speeding. I never felt it was appropriate to ask him and have kind of fallen out of touch in the past few years. I do know that he’s a good guy and I have never heard anything racist come out of his mouth in 20+ years of knowing him. I never met the partner, but other of my friends have and they characterized him as who you think of when someone says a “dick cop”.
