California cops in general. Incredibly high pay, the most protective laws and contracts, and the strongest culture of "cops don't write cops" in the country.

sorceror: A story about it: https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-04-06/lapd-bodycam-video-shows-officers-grabbing-and-arrest-innocent-black-man-as-they-searched-for-a-suspect
"It is racial profiling. They had no description of the suspect - a completely blank slate," said attorney Faisal Gill, who represents both of them in the civil rights lawsuit. "They literally saw the first Black man, and they arrested him."
The LAPD declined Tuesday to comment on the video's release, citing ongoing litigation. The L.A. city attorney's office, in court papers, has sought to dismiss the lawsuit, arguing that Austin and Michlewicz are to blame for the force used against them and that the police should be immune from liability.

Cannot blame the kid for getting scared, real fast, because if I was taking out my trash, and two cops just jumped me looking to pin a domestic incident against a white woman...well, yeah, this is what black fathers warn their sons about.

Seriously, though this is farked up. This is the sort of thing that makes all other cops job harder.

hubiestubert: Literally, they reached for the cuffs before talking with the fella. They'd decided that this was "probably" the guy, based on...garbage bags? Walking on the street? A marked lack of a screaming woman who was supposed to be in a domestic assault situation? Put a white kid in the same shirt, and the same pants and they would have simply asked, "do you know where 30 Rosemont is, sir" because they didn't seem to have a good idea where they were going.

I came to say something similar, so thank you for saving me some time. Am so tired of this BS. Where I live it is still dark (about 6am), and I do need to take out the trash. Thing is, I'm all sorts of white. Not even the NOPD is gonna f*ck with me.
