Public Service Announcement
The Police...and you!
Now, I don't profess to understand police\public relations everywhere. I live in Cincinnati, and around these parts public relations aren't exactly the best. Worse still, it's racial tension.
You are in luck, fine citizens...I have a solution!
DON'T ATTACK COPS AND THEY WON'T SHOOT YOU.
I'd say once every couple of months around this area, and even in the surrounding state, I have to listen to someone whine about getting killed by cops. I was just reading an article about a Toledo man that suffered this fate. He was tazed 9 times, and then died. Sounds bad...until you take into account that he was a crazed coke head. He was tazed 4 times in the course of arrest (for attacking the cops and resisting arrest), once in the car (for going nuts), and 4 more times in jail (for attacking other prisoners...repeatedly). It's hard for me to feel bad for this prick. He was coked up and had a bad heart... so go figure he died. See above solution for a tip on how to avoid this.
Another favorite of mine was a local boy. He was high on cocaine, PCP, and had consumed FORMALDEHYDE. He was also working on 300 pounds. He then got in a fight with cops outside of White Castle. Long story short, he died...from heart failure. It took like 5 officers just to bring this dude to the GROUND...and then more to finish getting him under control...even with tazing him. Then everyone blamed excessive police violence for his death. Um, I have an idea: When you drink FUCKING FORMALDEHYDE, ON PURPOSE, you lose all of your rights. That aside, he could have avoided the situation entirely just by following my simple advice as described in the big text above.
I could go on for pages. As I said, this happens pretty frequently. People always throw a fit and blame the cops. Worse still, it always has to be a black guy. Man does that get old. No, nobody cares that you're black. Get over it. We actually had riots here over a similar situation (.......they looted predominately black stores to protest racial profiling, I swear to God). GROW UP (coming from a man with a website like this...that should be a real blow).
Let me say it again.
DON'T ATTACK COPS AND THEY WON'T SHOOT YOU.
Chris Rock makes some good points also, as you will see here.
Any questions, just read the big text again.
