TPD is 99.99% racist. So don't give them any slack
The single out imported cars... I fly through torrance as fast as I can... to get to Lawndale or City of La to avoid being hassled... btw when drive through there as loudly as I can as well

Well, funny enough I just got rolled by Torrance PD tonight
I do have darker skin and look like a terrorist though.... so I should have known better than to go there at night
The problem is that some of my favorite restaurants are there, I even drove all the way from Orange County.
The best part is I wasn't even in the Z
I was in the rental car (hyndai) and got pulled over for not making a complete stop before turning right on red (the light had just turned from yellow to red and the crap hyndai brakes suck) they let me go, but not until they searched the car, and gave me the third degree... they didn't like that I don't have the registration (gave them the rental receipt which should be just as good )

Ive been profiled not by TPD but by CHP. That stuff happens, how did I know? Well i asked the office what did I do wrong and why was I pulled over. I saw him about 100 yrds infront of me on the side of the freeway as I was just getting on the freeway so I kept it at 65ish. His answer to me was "you fit the profile." Now what the heck does that mean? If that not being profiled I dont know what is, at least he was honest about it?

The kids constantly race at all hours of the night on a street near my house and it drives me crazy. Some of us have to get up early in the morning for work...

I've lived in Torrance almost all my life, and most of the TPD definitely profiles minorities like mad. I can go on forever with rants and personal experience of pure racism from the TPD, but I'll just keep it to myself, as I'm not trying to spread negative energy here. Those of you who've experienced it, you know what I'm feeling....
