i don't know if this counts, but i am a middle class white male. i was arrested for dui. i was sitting on the tail gate of my truck, keys in pocket, talking to two friends in my own apartment parking lot. i had 3 beers with dinner with more than an hour before. the cop came through and started hassling me about problems with drunk driving in the area and i told him there wouldn't be any problem here. he then gave me a field sobriety test, which i did fine on, but he was a bike cop and they have no cameras on the bike. his report stated i had to lean on a wall to prevent falling to the ground. (remember i was in a parking lot, no walls) my friends had split. after the field test the bastard spun me around and started to cuff me. i didn't physically resist but i said "what the hell are you doing" SOB dropped me to the cement and pepper sprayed me. he wrote on the report that i resisted and called in backup.

this was about 4 years ago. since then i've become friends with one of his colleagues who said that the cop who got me hates white guys with shaved heads and takes particular pleasure in f'ing up their lives. the cop who jacked me up is hispanic. shit happens both ways. (and no i am not a white supremist, i'm just bald)

the lawyers all said i would probably beat the charge in court but it would cost about $3-4000 grand, if i plead guilty it was 24 hours in sheriff joe's tent city and less than a $1000 fine.
