Glad I live in a black neighborhood where you can jog without anyone fucking with you. Fuck living around them.
Sociologist Says Fear of Being Racially Profiled Keeps Black Men from Jogging

I was running to the football field cause I was late for a high school football game I was helping out with.....polo and khakis and some white lady let out a scared scream and grabbed her purse as I ran by....
the shit is more real then folks think....

Anyone calling this bullshit is not black. Period.
As a black man, you have to consider shit MAYBE no other race has to consider. You are suspicious because you fucking exist. Any activity that can even even be remotely interpreted as criminal, WILL BE.
Back in the early 2000s, I lived with an aunt and uncle for a about four months. Well, my first day there, I walked up to the library to get a library card, and obviously check out some books.
This white lady was at the help-desk, but with her back turned. I said, 'Excuse me...'. This lady turned around and said, 'Oh my god!' The fuck? She then said, 'Hold on for a minute...' She turned to the side, to catch her breath, then asked how could she help me.
When I told her I wanted to get a library card, she looked at me like I had three heads.
Interestingly enough, that same lady ended up speaking to me every time I came into that library...
...but her first thought was, of course, I was there to jack the library, or rape her, or something OTHER than checking out books.
If someone can get profiled like that in a library, what in the fuck you think would happen in the streets?
Yeah...I think I am going to have to go ahead and agree with 100 percent of this......

Were you in Fox Chapel, Upper St. Claire or Sewickley?
Racial profiling has nothing to do with me not running. Knees, ankles, and Achilles take care of that...and to this day, still have flashbacks of having to run from ghetto-ass dogs EVERYDAY as a kid...
i used to jog at midnight on a street behind my subdivision.
i got the cops called on me so much they knew me by name and asked if i was okay that night.
mafuggas started calling me the midnight runner.
yup i don't jog like a normal person should for that reason.
it ain't the clothes, its the black.
we're being racially profiled in every setting
others don't know how that feels from the time you're able to go outside and do things by yourself, to have THAT on your mind as well as other things from day to day
They have a few gym spots that are open 24-hours up here. There are times I like to go workout when the gym is basically empty so I have access to everything I want, so I hit the gym up late at night/early morning.
Still get the occasional U-turn bust on me by the pigs. Or they pull out of where they are parked to 'run my plates.'
at least you're driving though
if you were out running especially where you live they're liable to shoot you and say they got a call about a robbery
You know!
I admit to having experienced these thoughts at one time. And consciously picking brighter clothes to not be seen but to not be seen ("mistaken") for an assailant or suspect.
Same here. I run with my keys in hand, so if I am coming up on someone, I loosen my grip so the keys jingle. I not trying to surprise anyone!
I don't jog outside, but what can the police really do if you're dressed like a jogger. Jogging shorts, jogging shirt. WTF. Like I said I don't jog outside but if I did, proper apparel is a must. Have anyone been harassed by police while wearing jogging attire?
Hell, I've had 'em slow down & put da light on me a couple nights on late night jogs when I was back in da A.
Basically..
SMH @ these "studies".
I dont give a FUCK about Jogging.
I do whatever the Fuck I wanna do....
I aint got no inferiority complex bone in my Body.. Im not like those Other "I hate being black" Niggas on this site...
SMH

I dont believe this at all. Its bullshit race baiting. And WTF does Racially Profiled mean while jogging? A cop is gonna stop you because youre out for a morning run? Cmon son. I jog almost everyday. And been doing it for years. And have never had a problem with anyone. And any black man thinking he shouldn't go outside because "Whitey" might get them, is just a bitch ass nigga. I cant believe some of you think like that
Look at the words y'all "race baiting" wtf.... Rush Limbaugh posts on bgol ? only cac's use these type of words
i was going to say that.
black people don't use words like that. that is solely in the cac lexicon.
I was looking for that clown to start using the infamous "race card" ,but "race baiting" is the same thing.... words cac's use anytime someone mostly black complains about their bullshit
Where I live it's like fucking boston. I walk with my keys and jog with a whistle. I'm on the affluent side of Fairmount and it's nothing but judgmental racist crackers. Some of which are my neighbors who never spoke to me since I moved here. I stopped wearing a skully for that reason when I jog. I do jog armed though just in case of a wild dog or north philly nigga.
You have to dress like Urkel for cops not to fuck with you.
Joggin?
