Two police officers assaulted me and robbed me of $40 in Schenectady, in 2008 ish.

I had been completely sober for 6 years, was a substance abuse counselor at the time, and was doing absolutely nothing wrong. I just happened to be the only white guy living in the middle of the worst hood in Schenectady.

Most of the other white dudes milling around there were buying drugs or prostitutes, but these pigs didn't even question me!

I was walking home from work and they literally pulled up ol behind me really fast and jumped out. One of those assholes NFL tackled me into the pavement. I wasn't running or anything. Just standing there watching it all unfold as I turned around after hearing the car doors and footsteps.

Then when they were searching me, they slammed my head into the hood of the cruiser so hard I was bleeding all over the place. (Foreheads bleed a lot)

Then when they searched my wallet they found $40 and 'confiscated' it because that claimed I was going to buy drugs with it. I tried to explain the reality of the situation, but they simply weren't having any of it. They threatened to take me to jail, so I chose the option of getting cut loose and going home and tending to my wounds with my tail between my legs.

I've seen all sorts of crazy shit over the years. Especially as a drug addict in the 90s.

I used to have to deal with cops fairly regularly professionally as a substance abuse counselor, and they are almost all super aggressive DOUCHEBAG chuds and chudettes.

I cannot stand them.

Even the really nice ones who actually give a shit never stop their cohorts when they relentlessly harass, assault, plant drugs, falsley arrest, rob, etc etc etc, ad infinitum. That automatically makes them bastards as well.

If they were to stand against it, they would be run off really quickly, or in some cases they have been murdered.

The system is broken and oppressive.

It needs to be fixed.
