For the past 15 years, police officers in Missouri have been required to record the ethnicity of drivers they stop on the roads, so the information can be examined for evidence of racial profiling.
Reams of data now indicate that âdriving while blackâ is a real offense in the eyes of some Missouri officers and departments.
But âdriving while gayâ?
New state legislation unveiled Tuesday would expand the current process of data collection that police officers in Missouri are required to follow during traffic stops to include not just race, but also âperceivedâ sexual orientation, as well as religion, âdisabilityâ and âEnglish language proficiency.â
The new legislation, dubbed the Fair and Impartial Policing Act, was unveiled Tuesday by two state legislators and the ACLU of Missouri.
âThis is not an attack on law enforcement,â state Sen. Jamilah Nasheed, D-St. Louis, said at a St. Louis news conference with co-sponsor Rep. Shamed Dogan, R-Ballwin, and others announcing the bill. âWeâre trying to weed out the bad cops.â

So the new trick to avoid a ticket when being pulled over (for guys) is to hit on the cop?
We're trying to weed out the WHITE cops.
Huh. I wonder what gay driving behavior is.
Must have something to do with the strength of the wrist for sure.
Failing to maintain a safe interval? Cross(dress)ing the center line? Driving while FA-bulous?
Sen. Jamilah Nasheed (D) is a known no-goodnik, though I'm not familiar with "Shamed." I'll take "BLM" for $200, Alex.

What about driving while white? Are they gathering that info too? I see white people pulled over all of the time. There is definitely some kind of racial profiling going on there.
>>Huh. I wonder what gay driving behavior is.
Pressing the Start button on a Prius or Volt is a dead giveaway.
"We're trying to weed out the WHITE cops."
"We're trying to weed out the COPS!"
(And this strategy is working well in Baltimore, DC and Chicago! Seen the 2015 homicide totals yet? It looks like they are all proving that one thing that is much worse than a few bad cops is no cops at all!)
Why not just record “driving while not white, male, heterosexual, English speaking without warrants”?
Good question
As well is what is driving while Catholic? Is it having your vision impaired by dangling rosary beads?
You know, there’s probably 10,000 things that I really don’t want to know about people....but ‘gay driving behavior’ wouldn’t have been one of those things, until today.
I can see this in twenty years....you get pulled over my a missouri cop and he starts asking sixty questions. What church do you attend, what’s your dog’s name, what NFL team do you prefer, did you watch the episode where Gilligan almost married Mary Ann, and would you prefer to hunt geese or bears?
My radar says you were driving at 75 and my gaydar read 98.
Riding another driver’s arse.
Most men that have the gay are pretty little fancymen.
There is a genre of gay men that cling to the toughguy persona. They purposely act like normal rugged men without showing any signs of fanciness or girly faggotry. They do this to remove themselves from the stereotype queer.
Hold on... don’t get me wrong, I saw these guys on 60minutes or some show like that, thats how I know.
Women... I like women and beer and ribs and impact wrenches and women.
Now that that is clear... yeah some gay men hate queen type queers and you’d never know they had the gay. Doesn’t make them any less disgusting, but still.
Why should the government be trying to guess one’s religion, or even sexual preference? I thought liberals liked privacy rights.
While I prefer to be polite and cooperate, invasive questioning is where I draw the line. At that point I ask, “Am I under arrest? Am I being detained? May I go now?”
Cop: “Do you mind if I look in your bag”
Me: “Can I look in your bag? Can I come to your house and look in your wife’s purse?”
But I usually try not to do that because it could lead to a “he started resisting” blackeye.
The correct phrase is driving while homosexual
If it helps me get out of the ticket, I’m gay and so is my wife.
ABBA blasting on the stereo. Tons of body glitter on the seats and carpet... etc, etc..
"IT'S BECAUSE I'M GAY!!! YOU HOMOPHOBE!!! SQUEEEEEEEE!!!"
