      @@kylemarsun,if I call 911 it’s for the fire department. I spent 36yrs in the fire service and every time we showed up people were happy to see us. The police can't say the same. Let's not get it twisted not all cops are bad but like FG said: “It's like a box of chocolates and you never know what you're going to get”. With the history that law enforcement has with Black America, I find that the best way to deal with law enforcement is to have little to no dealing with them at all. It's a matter of self-preservation.

    Victim mentality is an acquired personality trait in which a person tends to recognize or consider themselves a victim of the negative actions of others, and to behave as if this were the case in the face of contrary evidence of such circumstances. Victim mentality depends on clear thought processes and attribution. Avoiding responsibility
    is a lack of accountability.
    This might involve:
    placing blame elsewhere
    making excuses
    not taking responsibility
    reacting to most life hurdles with “It’s not my fault”
