    overly simplistic, my ass. i'm not being arrogant, i'm being realistic. people are ASSUMING that along with saying "are you a legal citizen" when stopped for something that the police are going to be abusive and that somehow the inquiry itself is a violation of some imaginary civil right, and also that ONLY dark-skinned people will be asked. the sort of professionalism and sensitivity required for this is the responsibility of the officers and the department itself, and is a separate issue. the bill on its own is only concerned with retrieving information.

    furthermore, personally attacking me or my my lifestyle hasn't, and isn't going to, help your argument in any way. there's no detachment here, i'm no whitey myself and know EXACTLY what racism feels like. "what is the status of your citizenship" isn't fucking racism.
