COPS COMPLAIN ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE WASTING POLICE TIME CALLING 911 WITH IRRATIONAL FEARS OF BLACKS

[Lee-Lee]

9. Ohh yeah

Had lots of those “suspicious person” calls.

It was kinda fun watching the callers squirm to explain to the brown skinned mixed race deputy who showed up exactly why they called....

First question I always asked was “do you know all the people on this street”

“Well no”

“So how do you know he isn’t a resident or doesn’t have a perfectly good reason to be here”

“Well, he. Umm. Just doesn’t fit the neighborhood”

“What do you mean?”

“Uhhh, well, I don’t know it just seems suspicious”

“Uhh huh, I see”

Then I would go talk to the guy, get the perfectly good reason he was there, and make sure to go back to whoever called and make them feel like a total asshole while being tactful and polite.

Our dispatchers would make it a point to have me go on those types of calls whenever possible because when they realize they are not getting a while deputy to respond to their racist complaints it seemed to make them call less.
