But I'm interested in hearing the mistreatment you feel you've had because of your race.

And what do you think of my family doctor, who drives a Mercedes and has been pulled over more than 30 times, none of them for speeding and has never received a ticket of any kind? And this is in California, where racism is not as prevalent as other parts of the country.
The times I have been on the receiving end was verbal - something like

"YOU *^!%$#@$%#%^% white !%!%^$#!" Also similar incidents because of my religion when I was Old Order Mennonite.

Your DOC? I don't know. Perhaps he received preferential treatment after he was pulled over with just cause. I know that can happen too. I know it's law that law enforcement state specifically why they pulled you over.

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945

"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves
