No grand jury necessary, folks.. [View all]

Just the basics:

1. If you are male (sometimes female as well), and not white

2. If you are over 4 ft tall (not always)

3. If you have something in your hands

4. If you have a coat on (or have clothing on)

5. If you have hands that MAY "reach for something" (like a drivers' license/ID you are asked to produce)

6. If you dare to question the reason for your stop

7. If you are deemed to have a "bad attitude"

8. If you have on a hoody that may hide ear phones (that may make you unable to hear a direction given you)

9. If you have on a hoody

10. If you are having the worst day of your life and you are upset

A scaredy-cat cop "may" be "justified" in shooting you several times
