Am I Tripping?

article image placeholderUploaded by @FryedOreo
I'm almost at the point where I can wave to the people because I just memorized the cars. But he's telling me that, yeah, because when I was driving by, I couldn't see you. And I'm like, yeah, but m***********, you are in the main street. You're like three lanes removed from me. Dude, I'm on a side street

They won’t let a brotha Swell in peace!

It, bro. Sometimes, man, these cops, yeah, man, they'd be bored, bro. I'm not going to lie. These cops, they just be bored. They sitting in their vehicle all day patrolling. I've had a few incidents. I had one that was similar, yours while waiting for the bus stop, while waiting at the bus stop, like across the street from my apartment. But yeah, man, that is crazy

Happy Friday. It's Renee. You're not tripping. He was just f****** with you. He was bored. He was f****** with you. He was either just bored and f****** with you or he was f****** with you because you're black. So you're, not tripping. Just had to come around and pull on his big boy pants and look like he is important

There. They don't say s*** to me. They don't say s*** to me. But, yeah, like he was coming down with neck of the main street. And I seen him kind of slow up a little bit before where there was no stop sign. Then I see him circle around. So he had it in his mind he's seen me on the road. Technically, yes. I was on the side street where no cars were at

Wasn't no bass in his voice or, I'm going to step out of the car. Don't talk to me that way. But, yeah, when he had came back with the I had dark clothes on and he couldn't see me and that sort of s***. Like, M***********, why do you need to see me? You're on the main road tripping
@SeekingPlumb
Okay, this is just weird, because if I'm thinking, like, trying to imagine this street you're describing, it's potentially you were pacing in the area where a car would be parked and it wouldn't matter. And I think you're right. He blew it out of proportion. Do you know what I think, too? Is that perhaps the guy was so unnerved that he didn't see you, and suddenly he saw you, that he projected

No, I'm on the side of the road where I can easily go up as you came. You see, I was not impeding your way of getting on the road. Yeah. Christina it's just a way to start a terrific Friday, is all. It's all going uphill from here, hopefully

Another incident that happened. This will make you laugh cops somehow noticed that I had a bald tire at 50 miles an hour, meaning I was heading down the lane, heading in one direction. Cop come down the other direction and turned around, stopped me. He goes, said, you know why I stopped you? I go, no, tell me why you stopped me. He goes, you have the ball tire. I didn't say anything

It's professor 42. What's up, man? Thank you so much for responding to the Swell cast. Yeah, it was a peculiar situation that was totally out of the norm. I mean, I am used to sometimes interacting with people at that particular bus stop, but it was Friday, I was feeling good, and this guy just won't say he was outright, like, extremely racist, but it felt like a brief mist of racial profiling that I caught a whiff of that day

And people don't understand it's a hard job to be in law enforcement. I remember the cops came to our town one time. We don't know why she called because we always handled our own business. We didn't never call the cops. The older guys would make sure everything was smooth. And any discipline handed out, it was from mum or you might get beat going down the road. And they came, and Lamont put his hands on his mom

Other than that, I never really had issues with the cops in my area, my suburban area, but it comes with the territory. Technically, I was in the road, even though it's an empty road that's lightly traveled at that time of the day. Again, if people were approaching, I could see them maybe 200 yards away. I can have more than enough time to clear the area for them so they can pass
