Have you bought yet?

so the other day I'm on my way to STAR Gyro's, God's gift to greasy Chicago eatery's everywhere, when I see a teal crown vic. driving past. Suddenly I hear a screeching of tires and turn to see the car hop the curb and come barreling toward my roomate Langdon and myself. Then it went between 2 trees and popped back onto the road next to us.
A man motions us to the car and asks," Have you guys bought yet?" Yet another undercover cop...
It has become a daily event to be stopped by police officers as I walk through my west side neighborhhod. Police assume that the only reason a white guy would be walking down my street is to either buy/sell drugs, or worse.
This particular under-cover officer was trying to get us to let him mark the money we were "buying" with so he could nab those %*#&!*@ guys. he swore that we could keep our rocks if we just cooperated. Eventually, like always we got him to leave us alone by just explaining we are new in town and live around the corner, I doubt he beleived us but oh well. Just another day in my neighborhood. Cops think we're dealing drugs to our neighbors, neighbors think we're cops. Yesterday a guy followed me down the street saying" yeah right, I know who you are...Who you fittin' to lock up tonight." Just another day.
