Unreasonable Suspicion
Thursday, September 11th, 2008Charley Hardman recently had another close encounter with the thin blue spine, and that encounter revealed that cops no longer need any evidence at all to derail your life:
the modern cop definition of suspicion ? of criminal activity ? is what he doesn’t know. have lost count of the times i’ve sat in my car listening to all the woes that will befall the world because i refuse the “papers please” dance of bullshit. why?
he doesn’t know if i’m a terrorist.
he doesn’t know if i’m a burglar.
he doesn’t know if i’m a stalker.
he doesn’t know if i’m a serial murderer.some can keep at that for about 7 items. things he does not know! that’s what these decrepit assholes now consider RAS (reasonable articulable suspicion). without my ID they don’t know if i’m “wanted”. without my ID they don’t know all sorts of shit, jack. and that is fucking “suspicious”.
There is no limit to what anyone doesn’t know. That means cops no longer need any reason at all to stop you and wreck your life, based on the fact that they don’t a know damn thing about you.
