  1. I remember growing up watching IPD always stopping people who didn’t look like they belonged in Irvine, typically I would see poor Hispanics. I remember feeling bothered until a cop came by with my expensive bike that one of them had stolen from my garage. Hadn’t even noticed it had been taken. People who can afford to be in Irvine are what makes it decent and these days, when I see crime, i see its coming from crappy areas with poor Hispanics and African Americans and I wish they were more ruthless about their stops.

    1. Unfortunately, you are right, a lot of the people that commit crimes arefrom Hispanic or African American descendance, but you can’t generalize on the matter, there are a lot of honest citizens from the same groups of people mentioned, that we wish this stereotypal could be different so we don’t get pointed all the time for something we also condemn, it’s like thinking that white men should be banned from any fire arm purchasing because more likely, the will participate on the next school shooting here in the U.S.A.

  2. let’s go back to reagan police sate era.
    lame
    why do irviners associate walking a dog with getting in their car and driving somewhere
