Taylor
Doesn't matter.
You could've robbed a bank, mugged an old lady... said something about my mama?
Taylor
Just chase me smartmouth.
Okay, Mr. White Bank Robber.
Taylor
[Earl drives along Taylor]
You’re insane!
And you're resisting arrest. [opens door to knock down Taylor and chases him] Don't you run from meǃ Don't you run from meǃ [grabs Taylor from behind] I'm insane? I'm insane when it comes to old-lady muggers, huh? You like robbing banks, huh? [knocks down Taylor] You said something about my mama?ǃ [starts handcuffing Taylor's hands and ankles] And I heard you call me "boy." That's cowboy to youǃ Time! [runaway vehicle runs into oil drums and explodes]
This isn't the first time I was arrested for DWB.
Detective Frank McDuff
DWB?
Driving While Black.
Do you actually believe the crap that comes out of your mouth?
I'm not really sure until I'm finished talkin'.
Do you know how to hot wire a car?
what, you think because i'm black I can hot wire a car
Well can you?
Yeah! but not because I'm Black
This is a beer keg. It doesn't make any sense.
It makes sense when you put together the pieces.
What pieces?
It's obvious. The CIA, they're smuggling alcohol into the inner city in an effort to further subjugate the black man.
Woman motorist
[Slapping Hank]
Didn't your mama teach you any manners? The least you could do is ask me nice!
Nash
I thought I shot you. You must be one tough monkey.
[Laughs]
You and the monkey jokes, huh? Didn't your momma teach you any manners while you were humpin' her?
Are you asking me if I need some help or am I stealing this car?
Are you stealing this car?
Does it look like I'm stealing this damn car?
A little bit.
Why, 'cause I'm black? If you saw a white guy doing this you'd give him a Good Samaritan reward. Figure he's going around turning off people's lights.
All right, license and registration please.
I ain't showin' you a damn thing! This is my car and I didn't do anything wrong. You owe me an apologyǃ
What did you call me?
You ain't listening babyǃ We ain't got nothing to talk aboutǃ Unless it starts with you saying "I'm sorryǃ"
You're on dangerous grounds here, bub, I'd be careful what comes out of your mouth next!
[gets off vehicle and gets up to Hank]
Oh, you want to hear what comes out of my mouth next? You're... a... ****... pig!
You're under arrest.
Oh no. I ain't under arrestǃ You areǃ
I'm arresting your assǃ
Citizen's arrestǃ You're under arrest for illegal false arrestǃ Now get your hands up on the carǃ Give me those cuffsǃ
Back off! I'm warning youǃ
You’re warning me?ǃ You have the right to shut up.
That's it, get up against the carǃ
Don't make me add "resisting arrest" to the charges.
Now! Up against the car! [slams Earl against vehicle with baton]
Watch my car I just had it detailedǃ
Settle down! Understand?ǃ
This is police brutality! You ain't doing nothing but compounding your problemsǃ
I know baby. But I promise you. My life is already pretty much figured out.
Your partner got killed. You lost your job. You went to jail. Your girlfriend walked. You got a job as a security guard at a hundred and eighty-two dollars a week. You know what you are, Hank? You're a black man.
[A tall woman is holding Earl up with one hand]
Okay, put him down. [Woman looks at him quizzically] In a minute or, two. Don't hurry.
[After firing off two shots an a senior woman's vehicle, making it skid to a halt]
Ma'am, you may now, reprocure, your vehicle. [The vehicle instantly explodes]
[being manhandled out of police training facility]
I see how this worksǃ The system can't tolerate a black man with superior skillsǃ I'm the future and it scares you... because you’ll be out of workǃ I remember when the NBA was all Whiteǃ That's all rightǃ That's all rightǃ I'm coolǃ Because y'all losing somebody goodǃ I'm a one-man kung-fu SWAT teamǃ That's all rightǃ I got skillsǃ You bitches!
