At the same time you will notice the cops didn't hassle the 79 other guys in the neighborhood with criminal records ~ Justin's crime seems to have been that he was outdoors.

Definitely a tough place to live eh.

Were the other 79 present and on the scene?

It amazes me. I have been stopped by police officers many times in my life, sometimes, quite rightfully so. In all those times, I was never shot, tased, beaten, or roughed up, and that includes back when I was a drunken and doped up idiot in the days when a billy club to the side of the head was a common practice. I have always been treated with respect in all those cases, and they span numerous different departments in numerous localities ( with one exception: I had a drunk fool of a cop put a gun to my forehead when I was 13 when I was doing nothing; there are bad pennies in every crowd, but that is no reason to condemn the whole lot.)

Now, we don’t know for a fact that Justin was innocent or guilty for the initial call. But, in all probablity, the responding officers were with in reason for checking Justin out. Justin’s subsequent actions tell me that the officer’s suspiscions were well founded...
