If being a positive presence in the community isn't enough incentive to be that, you don't deserve to be police.

And if that sounds hackneyed and like a ridiculous standard, you're damn right it is: we let them have outsized influence in our existence as otherwise free people. Their standard has to be a double standard.

There's a lot of anger towards police coming through in your comments. It's just a banana car.
Yeah I'm a Black immigrant with a funny name, I have a lot of anger about what we tolerate of police vs what we should.

Are you under the impression all cops are known for is harassing banana cars?

It's a banana car that has been pulled over illegally hundreds of times.
