Fyi, the whole 'black folks are pulled over for no reason stuff got a quite deep look under Obama. The key study was on the New Jersey Turnpike due to the data available, volumes etc. And guess what? Despite the racial hucksters lying about the findings, eventually it became clear that black people were pulled over more for good reason. They speed more, they break more traffic rules, these are just facts. I take no pleasure in it. Now I also hear lots of stories from black folks about being pulled over for no reason at times. I don't know how to square it, but having been lied to about race for my entire life, I am always dubious of such 'just so' stories at this point. If you are tempted to call me a racist for pointing out these facts, just know it's you, not me.
