Bob Dylan is an Idiot...

You're Bob Dylan? NJ police want to see some ID - Yahoo! News

Doesn't Dylan know that the socially acceptable response to a police officer doesn't immediately know who you are and is asking to see ID, is to go on a racist rant and make a public disturbance so the President can call the officer stupid.

This horrible, racist cop didn't just take Dylan for his word of who he was, they accompanied him to his tour bus to confirm it.

Total fukkin' rights violation.

I mean, God, he was white and this was a predominantly minority neighborhood.

Ooo, ooo. That means the caller was racist, too, not just the cop.

Duh.

 

Pot tends to make people pretty mellow. That's why he was so calm when asked for identification.

So the only logical solution is...we all need to smoke more weed.

 

The difference is that Dylan was raised to respect the police because they are not just people but they also represent community, That other idiot was raised on the idea of hating the police, of fighting against community and the establishment.

 

Wow.. you even know how Bob Dylan was raised and feels?? You are amazing TJ..


yeah.. didn't they call Bob.. Mr. Establishment conformist in the late 60's when he was publicly supporting the Vietnam war, students being shot by the national guard at Kent State and cops beating people senseless in Chicago at the 1968 DNC ?


Chaos is a friend of mine. ~ Bob "establishment" Dylan


Democracy don't rule the world, You'd better get that in your head; This world is ruled by violence, But I guess that's better left unsaid. ~ Bob "establishment" Dylan


To live outside the law, you must be honest. ~ Bob "establishment" Dylan


When you cease to exist, then who will you blame? ~ Bob "establishment" Dylan


I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
and just for that one moment, I could be you.
Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is to see you. ~ Bob "establishment" Dylan


Just when I didn't think you could get any stupider.. whoop.. there it is..

 

Bob Dylan being an idiot and being cordial to a law enforcement officer are two completely different things. Most of the idiots I know are pretty nice guys when they don't speak.

We can get into the philosophical aspects of it all, but what is the point? This point has been argued ad nauseum. No one can see the forest for all the wolves in the way.

I wasn't raised by a pack of wolves. I grew up in a military family and was taught to respect the badge. In all seriousness, I would've responded in the same manner as Dylan. It would've been my own prerogative to respond differently, but I'd be ready for the consequences.

 

The police is not notorious for profiling white people. That's why white people are not paranoid nor defensive about that. Duh. Big difference. You didn't prove anything.

 

Racial profiling!!

He got called in on and accosted by the police because he was an old white dude in a black neighbor hood.

 

Aha! They never said it was a black neighborhood! Tsk, tsk, Snaf....

 

Good thing it wasn't Arlo Guthrie. He'd a got his head bashed in!

 

In the story he posted:

lol

 

Gahhh I was gonna say that you bogart.

"Predominately low income neighborhood" is PC speak for RUN WHITE MAN RUN!

 

Great minds think alike my friend, at least some of the time, lol.


How have you been, I have not seen you around and thought you hit the bricks away from this place?

 

Time for a pot summit at the Whitehouse to straighten this racially heated incident out like gentlemen.

 

Ohhh.... and to be a fukken fly on the wall.

 

Yeah, I did read that. They still didn't specify it as a "black" neighborhood. Yes, it probably is black, but it could've been a Mexican neighborhood, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Hmong, Vietnamese, etc. neighborhood. But yes, I was mainly just teasing Snaf.

 

I bet it was a neighborhood full of white, butch lesbians practicing Wicca. You know how bad ass they can be!

 

A USM convention???? in New Jersey???

 

I bet that's where Shannon, the Ikea man-hating bully hails from! Grrr...

 

Ikea. Mmmm, now I'm hungry.

 

As if! They probably only hire cordon bleu chefs there. I only eat there for special occassions, like birthdays and anniversaries. Oh, and Tuesdays!
