...called Lombard.

There were no Black people to abuse, literally.

There was one black guy in my entire Glenbard East High School class of 1973.

Hippies were up for grabs.

I had a previous "arrest" from these fucks where they scraped up the debris on my car's floorboard and accused me of possession of weed.

I was let go after paying 100 bucks.

Back to my original post you replied to, my Aunt was the personal secretary of the Chairman of the Board of Sears Roebuck, and she arranged to get me a lawyer who knew the judge assigned to my case.

They went golfing together, and decided to drop all six felony charges against me - which could have gotten me up to 25 years in prison - to a $500 fine, with no probation or any other penalties. My lawyer was paid $1000!

White Privilege, kinda way before it was a "thing?"
