Cops have never seemed to like me like at all... Even as a teenager they always assumed I was trying to be passive aggressive with them whenever I'd encounter them. Even though I was trying to be polite as possible in order not to be forced to the ground and potentially beaten.

Probably because of the alternative type style I had and probably because they were pieces of shit pigs on a power trip.

    Nothing crazy, but I had an unmarked cop zoom ahead and sit behind me and to the left one lane because I turned my blinker on. And then matched my speed for close to a mile as I tried to get into one of the many left hand turn lanes to turn around.

    After like a mile of turning my blinker on and off again I turned it back on and switched lanes in front of him, about 40 or 50 feet in front of him, you know uncomfortably close but really slowly so as to make it safe. He turned on his lights and came out of his car spitting and going apeshit that I "cut him off" and that I should have "just gone to the next turn lane if I didn't have the space" even though I literally passed up like 5 of them. Unsafe lane change is not a cheap ticket

    EDIT: OOH I didn't think of this because it wasn't a police "encounter", but this is the actual worst one:

    I went to hang out with a dude in Phoenix Arizona and it turned out his dad was one of Joe Arpaio's boys, and he was DEFINITELY one of the 40% by the way. So anyway at like 6:00 at night he comes home in his uniform and opens the front door, doesn't acknowledge his kids in any way just walks the other way toward his bedroom, and I can hear him literally muttering the N-word to himself.
