Then you either live in a dream world, or you're part of the power structure. I've lived in Floriduh, South Carolina, and Mississippi, and visited Georgia, Alabama, and North Carolina, and I've run into more than my fair share of GOB cops/sheriffs. In either case, "Yo in a heap o' trubble, boah!

Yeah...Maybe he lived in Jackson MS and Lake Charles, LA...or some large townlike that. He certainly didn't live in some small southern town where the local cops can b corrupt. I'll admit it's not as bad as it used to be...but 50 years ago...well...thank God if you were born white. I'm thinking part of the power structure...given the absolute reluctance to answer my hypothetical question....which anyone who loves the constitution and who is conservative will answer yes.

My MIL lived in a small town outside Oxford, MS, a few years ago. Banker's wife used to sit on the front porch, drinking and firing her gun at the black neighborhood down the street. From what she said (and if she wasn't exaggerating) they had more than one black "shot while attempting to escape" incident in the 2 years or so she was there. A mutual friend who is black refused to visit her at home, saying it was more trouble than either of them needed in that small community.
