As for po-po I have seen over-zealous prick bags and good cops....There is only one cop in my whole town who doesn't treat me based on my priors (a shitload of possessions, and a rsp), the rest still profile me even though I quit this shit two years ago and they know this they just have a hard on for me...Just an other example of how shit that we do effects us, it's no one punishing me, just my own stupid mistakes that have had an effect on my present situation.
Yup, like my driving incident. That was all me baby lol. Now from a christian standpoint, it is hard to tell what is punishment and what is a test of faith. Either way you'll figure it out, now we may not always win or like the outcome but its for our best. If people believe he is the creator why cant they believe he knows what is best.
Again, all of what i say is from the eyes of a christain.

And that my friend, is one of the biggest reasons why it is sooo hard to follow Christ. Who are we to judge what is truly right and wrong? That is where faith comes into play..unforutnately i cannot recall any passages from the bible that explains how important faith is. This is only because i have been truly dedicated to the christain faith for about 6 months. I will mature though.
This is just a ?, plz do not take it the wrong way. If you do believe God gave humans free will. Do you think that right there defeats the theory of evolution? It is not like one can just gain free will...
I said the bible says God gave us free will. What I believe is that the bible was written by people to control people. Maybe there were good intentions behind it all, but it's a manipulative action. We're the only ones to judge right and wrong, God/christ/buddha/whatever don't directly affect us. It's our actions that shape us and our environment. Organized religion is a crutch, but some people just need a crutch to get by. It's when people try to hide behind religion that it really gets under my skin and pisses me off.
That happens far more often than I'd like to admit.

I agree man, IDK what i would do if everyday i have to hear the same bull crap from a different person, for trying to help. Some people just wont understand
I can't even say that I understand it from all angles. I do make an attempt though. I'm a pretty cold person myself, but I believe that anyone who's willing to help themselves is worth giving a boost every now and then.

That's a good outlook to keep. The only outlook, if you ask me. Grow from your experiences, and they were worth something. At the same time, there's no reason to take profiling out of habit just because you have a record. Sure, it makes you the scum of the earth but nobody's perfect, right?
Really though, if you get attention, it sticks, for better or worse. You can file charges for harassment if you like, but just be cooperative and try to let cops know that you're not out to fight them. Oh, and get their badge numbers before you hand over any of your identification first. They can't refuse, and it's just a little bit of insurance that they'll act professionally.

Well, all i can say is if you ever want to know for sure. Just ask, that is all you have to do. Sincerely ask. I did,and well, after 10 yrs of consciously thinking i hated church and was never going to go again because i said it would do nothing for me and it was ridiculous, I believe. It never ceases to amaze me and the many people i tell my story to, how God answered...
