I meant to ask WHY do cops tend to harrass law abiding citizens. Sorry about my typing error.

`Cause us, law-abiding Citizens aren't liable to shoot `em. So they can go back to Dunkin' Donuts, for Breakfast!

Cops harrass everyone not just law abiding citizens. But, they are taught to profile so if you look different than the norm such as my self than they are probably going to harass you more. I'm pierced, tattoed, with extremely long hair and live in a kansas town of 10,000 what kind of harassment do you think I have to go through.

Because law abiding citizens want to do the right thing and think cops are right because they uphold the law right? WRONG. Cops go after law abiding citizens because it more convenient for them to do so as it is easier to crack an honest person that wants to do the right thing in to confessing they might have done something wrong than an actual criminal, who is wise to their ways and antics, and likely already has a lawyer on retainer and they will actually have to work to get a conviction on.

I really dont know, Ive never been harassed by the police. Ive only casually been acquainted with a few officers so I really dont know much about it. They seemed okay though.

This question is ridiculous. Cops aren't around to harass anybody, they are to serve and protect. Go ahead and complain but when you need help see who you call.

Translation:
I am a criminal and I hate personal responsibility. I do not want to be responsible for my actions. Police have made me responsible for my actions and i don't like it. Do you think I'll ever reach puberty and maybe someday act like an adult?

They don't, what happens, minor law breakers think they are law abiding and think they should get away with what they are doing.
by the way, put your hands on the vechile and empty your pockets
