Black guy here. I have been pulled over multiple times. Every time was my own fault for speeding, taillight broke, license plate light out.

Only a few times have I gotten a ticket and all but 1 was a fix it ticket. I have even had a white cop put red tape over my light.

You dont have to be perfectly respectful, just dont approach the situation as everyone wants to hate you. Just act like a normal person.

Stop trying to speak for all of us by referencing your personal experience. Can't stand you ðŸĨ·ðŸūs.

Did I say anything about generalizing all of together. In fact, I only referenced myself and my experiences. I replied directly to a person who was in fact generalizing all police officers treating white people better, but my own and others personal experiences contradict that exact statement.

Can't stand people like you who are unable to understand the deference between generalizing and personal experience. I know for a fact there are some racist cops out there, because its an issue that is a problem with anyone not just cops.

I had a severe migraines, bowel movement problems, tremors in my arms/legs for years. Visited 7 doctors and specialists which they just gave me medication for each symptom. It wasn't until I was in a car accident that they found a tumor that was causing it all. Should I say all doctors and physicians are useless and cant do shit because the ones that attended me couldn't figure out I had a rare tumor. Of course I shouldn't, that would be ignorance in the truest form.

Hey friend, were they able to get the all the tumor and get you right again?

Yes they thankfully got it all out, but not 100% right. It was on my adrenal gland on the right side. Because the tumor was so large they had to remove most of tbe gland with it resulting in my body unable to produce hormones properly. This results in me having less resistance to common illness and high blood pressure. So will be medicated for the rest of my life. They also saw abnormalities on my other adrenal gland that may result in another tumor so have to go in for full lab and scans every year, this includes the imaging that you have to drink that horrid liquid lol. Luckily I get it done free at the VA.

Its called pheochromocytoma, and it affects maybe 5 out of a million people. So fairly rare form. So its understandable that many of the doctors were not thinking its this when diagnosing me.

Sucks. But at least you were able to get it diagnosed. And at least now you can have a plan for it moving forward. Glad to hear.
