SCPD (Long Island, NY) literally did this to me once. They pulled me over and "interrogated" me for 20-30m on the side of the road. I say "interrogated" because they were putting words in my mouth and making up a narrative, even implying that my sleeping dog was dangerous. Eventually they gave up and let me go without charge.

Another time the fuckers gave me 5 tickets for driving without insurance, while holding my valid insurance in their hand. That was a fun one to fight in court. Spoiler: I won.

see, that's your problem right there. have you maybe thought of not being born as who you are? that's on you imo for not thinking of that when you decided to not be born a straight white male.

(obv /s but that's probably what's going on in the cops head, if anything at all)
