>>Well that brings to light a other problem - the "stop and frisk" gestapo tactics that, for example, the NYC police were using - which means that a cop can stop and search you for absolutely no reason whatsoever.
I get it - the cops also will be profiling based on their expectations of who might be a criminal. That's one area where many of us may be beneficiaries of "white privilege" without even realizing it.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
