anon, the smaller the town the more corruption. Cops protect each other. And they control the press because they control the press-statements. And the media will only go for the bigger story. They dont care what kids say and neither will anyone else. Who would you believe? Cops, or a bunch of kids out on halloween who look like they planned to cause a huge amount of ruckus. Cops around my town harrassed us non-stop. If you were walking down the street at night and a cop passed you, he would stop and make sure you weren´t causing any trouble. One time i was skateboarding down the middle of the street at night (around 1 AM, small town = streets deserted). cop came from behind me and rolled down his window, his words exactly: " Get the f*** on the sidewalk" and then stared me down until i got on the sidewalk. I woulda fought with him but i had weed on me, did not want to get searched (and yes they use pat down searches like crazy in my town.)
The thing ive realized after posting this is after that night, we barely got harrassed. After that, they would always roll up and try to be polite. Funny how things work out.
