The only longhaired guy on the show and he had to get busted for speeding and recking his car.
why can't they show longhairs in a more positive role model?
Yep, saw it. Actually, I've seen that one several times. I do notice that most of the people who get busted on COPS don't have long hair. I've also noticed that the long-hairs tend to cooperate more. This is probably because they are more intelligent (the police will always win if you give them a problem). I've actually ran into some pretty cool cops here in CA (sounds strange, I know). I've gotten out of a lot of shit by cooperating and having a good attitude.
The magician in "Magic's Biggest Secrets" looks like he has long hair. Then again, the magician might be a she.
