Congressman claims Racial Profiling

This story is interesting and sad. The reporter and the congressman may be correct in assuming that the police pulled him over for "driving while black". However they only suggest half of the solution to the problem. That the police must change their tactics. I suggest that the other half would be for blacks to obey the laws that the police are trying to enforce. If we all attempted to obey the laws we would not get pulled over. The data does not exist anymore that details crime by race (it was deemed not useful and/or insensitive to keep this data) but when the data was kept, blacks committed more crimes. Therefore they will get pulled over more. Perhaps this is putting to simple a spin on the situation, but it seems like a good place to start.

Gee. I'm surprised to see the NYT in the bag for Hilliary.

Attacked. Poor Poor Hillary. Got attacked by the boys. What happened to being a tough woman?
