Read or listen to conservative Republican US Senator Tim Scott about his experiences and the experiences of his brother in the Army.

I know people are going to ridicule the frick out of me but have seen it personally a few times.
In defense to the police and those that did profile, it was based on experience. At this point I truly believe it's the unknown on both sides that cause alot of the profiling.
But yes, just a two weeks ago had it happen to me and a friend that picked up two African Americans that ran out of gas. Got pulled over literally seconds after picking them up to get gas. Got a lecture about picking up strangers.... seemed fishy.

If they complied with the police, there would be less of these shooting incidents. Maybe Lebron James should tell the black community this. Just comply.

Do they get profiled? Absolutely
Is it unfair? We can let the crime stats decide.

Define unfairly, when a specific group that is easily identifiable is commiting crimes at such a prodigious rate rate I have a hard time calling it unfairly.

It’s like the five year old that keeps taking cookies and gets mad when his mom quits buying them.

The police department has an official word for it:
"Maximizing a stop"
Code: don't bother pulling over granny.
(because you are statistically way more likely to find shennanigans - ergo (tickets, drugs and crimes) with young black people than pulling over some white grandma or white teenage girls or white middle-aged guys.
Cops have always profiled; that's statistical analysis...just like the NFL uses stats to predict and prepare for.
What's wrong is that they usually pull people over for total bullshite hoping they hit pay-dirt. Drugs, weapons.
So they target young black people hoping to hit pay-dirt. Problem is for all the protests, according to statistics, they hit pay-dirt a lot. That's why they keep profiling.
But the stops are usually total bullshite and cops need to stop doing that. Just lighting up the sirens for nonsense just because they want to search the vehicle and capture some drugs because it's an old El Camino or some tricked up car.

That's more of a state issue. In the deep South, there are a lot of shitty public schools. But other statrs have great public schools. Why there's such a difference in quality between states, I don't know.

It's not unfair when blacks commit a disproportionate amount of crimes. If they don't like being profiled, then they should stop committing so many crimes. Stop idolizing thug culture. Show cops respect & speak proper English. It's rather simple.
And they should really stop acting like little bitches when they're multi-millionaires playing a game. The old saying, "You can take the boy out of the ghetto, but you can't take the ghetto out of the boy" seems to be true.

I've got the solution.
As black men represent less than 7% of the population, how about they commit 7% of the crime - instead of the 50% that they actually commit. Hell, we'll give them 10%.
When less than 7% of the population commits more than 50% of the crime, it's not "racial profiling" -- it's learned and educated behavior on the part of police.
Just ask the black Florida state trooper who has set all kinds of drug arrest records along the Florida interstate.
