I want you to know that nothing offends me more than cranks wasting police time.
This isn’t some civil rights milestone. Police in this country will keep arresting us, keep beating us, keep killing us. You haven’t changed anything for black people here. Unless, of course, you’re a famous, rich one in Brentwood.
This is my problem with police officers. All you care about is evidence. Evidence, evidence, evidence. Until that evidence no longer fits the narrative you need to be true, at which point the evidence becomes an illusion, a mistake.
They call me a serial killer? Greatest serial killer of all time is the cops.
I’m a cop, the only thing I’m scared of is decaf coffee.

Vigilante days are done in this town. The police are in charge.
The police only see what they choose to look for. The Machine sees almost everything.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised I have to tell you this. But it’s probably a bad idea that you willingly talk to the police, being a criminal and all.
