My trouble at Greyhound station (SAN BERNARDINO)

-
While waiting for my bus connection at the San Bernardino, California, Greyhound Station (I was directed to the wrong door (from Downtown LA), consequently boarded the wrong bus, and, as a logical result, missed my proper connection) I got into an exchange of opinions with the neon-jacketed "security" - aka rent-a-cop - who promptly got on her walkie-talkie and called for backup to "handle this bitch."   
Excuse me? Who is this bitch calling a bitch?
Then she tried to get up in my face - personal space! - to aggravate me further, insulting, if you can believe it, my mode of travel. According to her, only poor "broke, ghetto" people use Greyhound. Oh really?!
Then her superior who had came to "handle" me thought I would step outside in the parking lot to discuss things. Hell no!

I summoned the will - thankfully! - to walk away from them (rather than smack her across the goddamn mouth) and flipped the script: I requested the Greyhound staff call the police. They did. And I waited about an hour for their arrival. (You can be sure there wouldn't have been a wait if a woman, especially a white woman, had called the pigs). I sat and chilled in the lobby; because I sure as hell was not trusting the situation to step outside with those rent-a-cop fools. The supervisor even had a pistol! No sooner had I crossed the door then they would have warned me against trespassing if I made to re-enter. See, this is how shit plays out with young, black males. Whether you believe it or not. I personally believe black women love putting us in jail...makes for a powerful kick as we, black men, are always mindful of being just a phone call away from being locked-up.

When the San Bernadino copper finally showed up tempers had cooled. But I feel he did not take my complaint seriously because even though, as he explained, "it is not a crime to be an asshole" it would have been treated as a crime had I insulted the woman and made her feel threatened. Don't be surprised when I tell you the pig was black, himself. Evidently his uniform deludes him of the fact that he is just plain black-black without it.
