DaemonFCThe really horrible thing is that the cops either actually think like this or just do it because nobody will stop them.Jan 04 05:49
DaemonFCThose are the two reasons to behave this way.Jan 04 05:50
DaemonFCIt's not illegal to make a lot of money legally if you're black, but if you spend it on nice stuff, you attract cop attention.Jan 04 05:51
DaemonFCAnd if you don't, your business clients and associates won't take you seriously.Jan 04 05:51
DaemonFCSo the whole idea is to keep them down by keeping nice watches off their arms, to keep them out of a nice car.Jan 04 05:51
DaemonFCIt hurts them professionally.Jan 04 05:51
DaemonFCIt's like the cops, right, are protecting "territory" from incursions.Jan 04 05:52

DaemonFCYeah, so the cops go beat them up and take care of slandering them.Jan 04 05:56
DaemonFCAnd there's more slots for others to succeed.Jan 04 05:56
DaemonFCBoth directly and because others get the message.Jan 04 05:56
