    This was in Louisiana. It was bad enough that my friend who lived there was surrounded by cops going home multiple times because “the only reason a white person would be there is to buy drugs.”

      Yea, it definitely a thing I watch for when going into them areas. If I see a cop on one block, I’ll go around 2 blocks so they don’t see us riding back through.

      Which makes me feel bad cause ya it is one of the reasons I am over there, but that can’t be helped if the folks I break bread with are black.

      And it’s not like I see a black person and go “on that’s a plug.” It just I end up having black plugs cause all my white plugs rip me off and act like they’re my buddies. I’ve never been ripped off by a black plug if I’m tbh.

      It’s a fucked world. Everybody wants to get the drop on everyone.
