| Indigenous folks | индейцы (I had the displeasure of getting arrested for being drunk and talking shit to a cop a few years ago. It sucked but was a really interesting experience. I ended up in jail overnight and noticed they separated the Indigenous folks from the rest of us. The Indigenous area was chaotic with them screaming, slamming things, taunting guards and other arrestees and just generally going crazy but the guards did nothing. My section, on the other hand, was zero tolerance. We had to stand silently beside a wall, look straight ahead and keep our hands out of our pockets. Any slight infraction and you heard all about it. If you pissed them off, they manhandled you and put you back into cuffs. It was pretty harsh.  reddit.com ART Vancouver) |
