a bit of doom...and anger
Can't help feeling this doom when i hear that my baby bro was arrested, like a criminal for no reason at all, by some suburban cops on his way back from greeni's house. No reason for pulling him over, but of course, tickets emerged for various things, and then they handcuffed him and took him in for suspended license. and someone had to go spend 200 dol to bail him out. Fingerprints & mug shots taken. It's a new procedure, they said, although it feels strange. Que hijos de puta, comemierdas, y...mal fin tengan! Come on?! Spare me the bullshit. A few weeks ago, Dr. Vodka & I hovered over Mundo when some gangbangers beat the shit out of him, and he called the cops and no one came to his rescue! And now to hear another incident where these pricks continue in their uselessness by arresting innocent well-to-do citizens. You know, I hate to play the race card, but what else is it?! Someone explain that to me! They're trying to finish they're fucking quota, it's that time of the month?!
Anyways, we think we're free. I've had this discussion w/ A a couple of times over chat. He says: at least you have choices in your country (unlike Cuba). I say: check out our choices, A, why don't you come & see for yourself? Why don't you stop undermining our struggles in this country, why don't you give some validity to the fact that we have injustices that we are constantly living and fighting against. Then, the whole political discussion explodes: your government is evil, and so is mine. We have these authority figures who are power hungry and manipulative: they exist everywhere, in every country, on the local levels, with the cops and the pinche tienditas de cabrones despotas who overcharge the paisanos por productos mexicanos, and within our families...
this bad weather and little stories have a way of aggravating me.

That's awful...we all know he isn't a troublemaker...but of course, since he's a Latino....well, u know that Latinos are either gangbangers or drug dealers in the eyes of the white man.
now we can't even fuckin drive at night because we are going to attract "cop" attention....Makes one want to scream...SCREAM!!!!
Sorry to hear about this Guiam, it makes me mad.
Our society is out of whack, and the way we are destroying our resources, this dog eats dog world will only get worse.
ugh, sorry to hear that. beauracracy(sp?) can be so twisted.
Degraciados animales mendigos perros por que no arrestan a las nalgas de su madre?
This is bullshit man. I'm outraged!! And the assholes that are out there doing shit they don't even do anything about.
I'm going to take you out for a drink; sounds like you need it.
mariposa isn't looking for an excuse for a drink, is she?
crap. i did not know this! *shakes fist*
Yea it sucks. It happens too often. I get harrassed still. Not too often, but when I speed. I try to kill the cops with kindness even if they're being dicks. It works, because they feel like idiots. I say, yes sir, no sir. Then, towards the end of the ordeal I ask them for their name and their supervisor's name. I guess, we just gotta play their game. I know it sucks, but i'd rather do that than go to jail. At least until everything changes.
