when was the last time two squad cars searched your
vehicle inch-by-inch because you crossed lanes while passing through
an intersection? Never happened to me.

The police were recorded saying a container they found "probably had drugs"
in it. It was a make-up container. [All you little people are probably guilty]

When ABC asked the police chief later why they were pulled over,
he said for crossing lanes while going through an intersection.

ABC's cameras then showed cars doing that constantly at the same intersection.
They said they counted hundreds the same night.

The police chief then tacitly admitted they
were pulling over black people on purpose.

You monitor any group real close, you'll get many arrests.

The implications of heavy monitoring are serious.
