Every conversation I've had with them locally includes them saying, "You live here?"
Police stereotype a lot, and it's hard to blame them. They see their stereotypes reinforced on a regular basis, much more so than the hypocritical liberals who hide from reality as they condemn fairly realistic stereotypes.
They see those cases that reinforce the stereotype. They don't see the vast majority of people that don't fit into it because these don't have nearly as much dealings with the police.
It's like shrinks having a totally unrealistic vision of what a "normal" human personality is.
