Modern Day Witch Hunt?
I think that this man does have a point. He is making a hefty claim that the police were picking on him for no other reason than that he was an African American. I feel bad for the man and what really got me was when he said that he always wanted to be a police officer as a child. But when he grew up and became a man, he saw how the police abused their power and pulled him over and patted him down and searched him without a warrant, and for no other reason than probably because he is African American. It gave me a totally different outlook on the police after reading this article. It doesn't mean that every police man does this and is like this, but I still lost some respect, and I believe that the police should only search someone if they have an actual reason, not just because of somebody's race.
