not to mention that no one on earth should be judged by an arrest record OR even a conviction record. i'd expect that kind of crap from some conservative wanker, but not here among the enlightenerati.
attitudes like this joanna are exactly what made my life miserable quite some time: your assumption, despite all that i posted in that post, was that someone with an arrest record must clearly be deserving of getting pulled over or treated with suspicion. you know nothing about what happened and why and i flat out told you that i was found not guilty and in fact sued for misconduct, police violence, unlawful arrests and illegal search and seizure and WON and yet you assumed that an arrest record must mean guilt. just like the friggin Public Defender's office who wouldn't help me fight the charge because they assume you're guilty if you're poor.
very nice. love it.
what malarkey.
