I don't have to ask them; I already know. I'm in a number of minority groups, but sometimes it seems that my white privilege trumps all my disadvantages. And that's why I support #BLM.I spent two days looking at this post, wondering if I should say anything. I was going to detail a few of my own experiences, as a black person who was born and raised in southern california. One who is educated, has a nice house, a good job, with both a new BMW and Tesla in my garage, solar on my roof, powerwalls, etc. I mention all that stuff to say that I am not a "disadvantaged" person.
Anyway, rather tell you several of the experiences I have had, even though I am a law abiding citizen who has never gotten more than a speeding ticket in his entire life, I would just tell you to ask any black people you might know well enough to ask the question if their experience matches yours.
I know mine sure doesnt.

@bpobill thanks for the downvote. You’re clearly a cop too. Best of luck with that.Wow. Good luck out there, officer.

Lots of cops on this forum...Someone is easily dupped. Check the stats. They point in the opposite direction of the current narrative. You are being sold a time-share condo in utopia.

@Bill Price is also a cop apparently@bpobill thanks for the downvote. You’re clearly a cop too. Best of luck with that.
Another member of the boys in blue. You guys love outing yourselves in these threads or what?Don't black out your windows, drive like a boob, and run your subwoofer at 11. Or ride a motorcycle.
You will find you won't get pulled over very often.
The LEO has no idea what your DNA coding is until after they hit the bubblegum lights.
Police are your friend, obey the lawns and they won't pull you over.
If you are pulled over be polite and respectful rather than seeking confrontation and all will be fine.
Only once was I pulled over without cause and in that case I was a 19yo kid out at 2am and they wanted to see if I was drunk. Every other time I most definitely deserves to be stopped and deserved every ticket I got.
Nope. Just trying to communicate. No more silence, or polite pretending. What people see out there with the protests, and even some of the rioting(though I don't condone it but I understand it), is people at their limit. Pushed to their absolute limit over a lifetime of experiences like mine thrown in a pile of experiences just like this sometimes in work, housing, schooling, living, and just being. Whoever disagrees with my experiences realize you are seeing people who have hit their absolute limit. Who have been pushed to their very edge. I know you understand what this means.Wow, thanks, DelPhonic, that is a nice piece of writing. Like it's your day job?

It would be nice to have Tesla enable a voice command, "I am being pulled over", to use the cabin camera and other cameras to record the interaction with law enforcement.
You never know what a cop is going to do. He has a gun and power, the judge will take his word over yours. If he’s had a bad day he will do whatever he wants, simple as that. The data about black Americans is out there, they did at a much higher rate at police hands than white Americans do and if you haven’t listened yet, then you have a problem.
