As a black man that grew up in the ghetto I'm aware of the harassment from the police and as an adult that lives in the suburbs today! I'm not sure what to think about this one, but today in my suburbs I'm guilty until proven innocent!As I've said it here before, I was pulled over four times in eight weeks in my own neighborhood! Were they "protecting and serving"?

Does it suck? Yes, but what can I do except keep going to work and taking care of my homeschooling wife and four children.

Similar sentiment from two of my BIL and two of my nephews. Something I, as a white guy, haven't really ever experienced except maybe traveling through Mexico - kinda creepy.

For what?

That's unfortunate that PD is operating that way. At our PD our race ratios of traffic stops mirror our local populace's race ratios, even though our town is on a major highway. You get stopped in my town if you do something wrong….not if you look funny.
I'm curious though, how long were you detained each time? Were you handcuffed? Were you forced out of your vehicle? Did the officers forcefully search your vehicle? Were you given any frivolous traffic citations?

Seems to me you have a legit harrassment suit if you wanted to push it.
