I did not really want to post this but it has been on my mind ever since I got off my bike tonight.
Okay so I was riding my bike this afternoon. I was riding just outside the new development area which is where I live about 2 miles down the road. I am not really paying attention to the neighborhood so to speak. Does not make a differance to me where I ride but I do know that this particular area is mostly black. The small town we bought our house in is really small and what developer did is just bought up a ton of land. well out here in the country this is where a larger black community is based as well. No problem by me. I am not a racial person. However I hate a racist.
Well I am riding along and through this neighborhood and I have already said hi to a couple of the people in the neighborhood and waved and they all wave and say high back.
Well, along comes this Local police officer. (mind you guys I was a police officer for 13 years)
He pulls up along side me and wants to stop me. I stop. He says to me.
" I just noticed you riding through this neighborhood. I know you live up on Hidden Ridge."
I say " yeah, I just got this bike about a week ago and wanted to spread out my riding. "
He says. " Well you really don't need to be riding through this neighborhood."
I say, " Why ?"
He says " Well this is where all the Niggers live. "
At that moment I just about came unglued.
I mean the oudasity of some asshole like that.
He then states this is where they have some trouble at. and tries to I guess frighten me.
I then tell him in a kinda smart ass way because all I want him to do is leave me alone. that I was a police Officer for 13 years and I know how to defend myself if the time came. I am well prepared.
He acts like I am full of shit, see this asshole is one of those I've been in this little shithole towns for longer than the rocks have been here and realtively has an easy job being in such a small town. I mean the small town I worked in was 10 times the size of where I live. The little town is just lucky enough to have a post office. Hell, we actually have to use another towns name on our mail when we send out mail.
Well I just had to get that off my chest because tommorow I think I am going to go up to the little so called police department that is a Trailer and make a complaint. I don't play that kinda of racist crap, and I hope this asshole is there.
End of story.
