My experience with the police - Kwami - 07-09-2016
I watched all the actions and reactions for the past few days regarding shootings in Minnesota , Louisiana and Dallas and concluded that american cops are mostly racists and goes about doing their jobs knowing fully well that they can shoot blacks with impunity. With all due respects to SCA , I believe that you are in denial but I will leave that for another day.
I have never been involved with police but something happened to me with cops three weeks ago and I will list my experience here/
I came home about 11 pm and decided to sort my Garbage and put it out at the curba s the next day was garbage day
Silently a police cruiser pulled upon my driveway. Two cops got out and told me that there were break ins in the neighborhood an they will like to see my ID.
It so happened that I left my wallet , keys and phone on my kitchen counter and since I was willing to comply , I told the officer that I was going retrieve my Id but I was stepping out of my porch , I froze. I thought to myself , that wont need my ID since it was obvious that I live here
Now it was two white policemen and as I stepped out on the driveway my next door neighbour
came to his porch to see what the commotion was about ,
I will now state verbatim what went on
Me " well officer you can tell that I live here "
Officer #1 " whenever A policeman ask for your ID , you must provide it " spoken in a very authoritative tone .
At this point I ask my neighbor to get his cell phone and record this interaction which he was only too happy to do
Me '' mother fucker get off of my property , you are harassing me and I will not show you ' ID. come b ack with a warrant if you want any interaction with me . You assumed that I was was some dumb ass immigrant and you can fuck with me , but I will sue personally and your department . I now request your names and badge numbers which you must give as it is policy:
They complied and suddenly their tone changed and were apologetic but I was furious and I having none of it.
My parting shot " Please , both of you fuck off and I would be filing a complaint . i am a fucking taxpayer that pays your salary and in the future treat darker skinned people with respect . now fuck off "
Is all on film'
