This is completely true, but people should also not take this scenario as evidence that racism does not exist in the police force, it does, but it doesn't help to be prejudiced. A black person shouldn't automatically look at a cop as a racist who's out to get them, and a cop shouldn't automatically look at a black person as suspicious and a criminal.
If we left behind stereotypes and prejudices and simply judged everyone based on their actions and purely the information in front of them most of these problems would be solved.
Weed and alcohol have a pretty damn obvious smell, and contrary to what you might think, it is not hard to tell if you've been smoking it. If you're smoking weed or drinking while you are driving, you deserve to be arrested.
Not all police officers and corrupt racists, but some are...
Michael T. Slager dropping his taser on the corpse of Walter Scott after shooting his twice in the back. Scott ran away from him because he had an outstanding warrant for not paying child support. Slager, not knowing a man recorded the entire incident, claimed that the unarmed Scott attacked him and grabber his taser forcing him to use lethal force.
Thank god someone understands that there is also corrupt racists too. Its just as the same way,just like not every cop is bad that doesn't mean every cop is also good.
I think there is a possible issue with police overreach in the country, but it's not about race as much as it's about stupidity. In most cases where the cop is fired, the cop had a history of questionable behavior.
