There is a distict difference between racial discrimination and racial profiling. Sometimes the line can be crossed. And as much as politically correct morons try to tell you we are different. After recent pictures, I know I do not look anything like AZHitman. :pface So if I get pulled over in an area with a high concentration of asian gangsters and I seem to look like one, drive a car that is similar to what they might drive and dress like one, then I would expect that I might have a higher probablility of being pulled over. And this has happened. But as I said, it was without incident. Each time, I was pulled over for a reason, but the officer made further inquiry about me to confirm I was not someone they might be looking for. It would be different if perhaps I was beat down because the officer hated Asians.
Consider the type of person you appear to be. If you dress like all the other kids, then you look like all the other kids. I don't see officers constantly pulling over Asian dad's with their pocket protectors in their minivans and harrassing them. Kids try to do so much to get more attention as well. Well, the fact is it gets the cops attention as well. The only visual mods on my S14 are the wheels and exhaust. Perhaps the brakes if you have a good eye. It's lowered slightly, but that's hardly a mod anymore. I haven't been pulled over or harrassed since I've had this car(5 years now), except for when I was speeding, but the cop could not clock me and pulled me over anyways.
Noone said racial discrimination is wrong. I think you are just blowing it up out of proportion. In the same way you should be punished only for what you do, the cops should as well. So lets not discriminate against all cops. Just the ones that are actually bad.
