It makes sense to me.
As a person with Autism, I have always been scared of a misunderstanding with a police officer that would land me in jail, which is a common issue. I would calm my nerves by telling myself “it will be OK. I will think of it as a lot of time to read.”
I later learned books are very hard to come by at prisons, which adds a bit to my fear of going out and doing things.
Knowing I would be forced to work is terrifying because it would necessitate so many more misunderstandings.
- nicodjimenez 8y agoJust don't drink and drive, don't hang out with volatile people, respect police offers, and you'll be ok. It also helps to be white / be female when dealing with law enforcement but not everyone has such luxuries. Living in fear is no way to live! Think of it this way: if cops weren't around things would be MUCH less safe, so thank god we have them
