that sucks nick.

sometimes i feel like i have it rough as an asian woman. but then i realize that when i'm pulled over in a car, it's not because i 'fit the profile' of a criminal. and that even if i have been speeding, i can cry crocodile tears and the officer will let me off, because i'm a poor little defenseless asian girl. i hate to say it, but shit... we gotta play the system when we can.

you don't deserve that shit. ugh... i wish i could beat them with their nightsticks.

one of the weirdest things about living in the UK is that the police profile people based on their clothes rather than the color of their skin.

an example: my waxer's boyfriend got pulled over about six weeks ago because he was driving an expensive car and was wearing a big coat & a baseball cap. I asked her if he was black and she said, 'no, he got pulled over because he looked like either a drug dealer or a car theif.' I keep forgetting that there isn't much racial profiling here & that it's really scally profiling.

I should mention that I made sure to get the officer's badge number and that I just called and filed a complaint.
