"The Tennessee Highway Patrol “categorically rejects any suggestion that our troopers engage in racial profiling or target individuals based on ethnicity, race, or national origin,” “Each stop was lawful, consistent with department policy, and conducted in accordance with the Constitution."

Hmmm, I wonder if Ice agents are paired with state troopers in all parts of Nashville, or just the ones near Hispanic communities? And on that day, all of those state troopers were assigned to that PARTICULAR community, not any of the others. What did the total distribution of State troopers look like? A normal pattern based on population distribution and historical trends in speed infractions? Or was some other decision procedure used us-foreign-policy ? Each trooper may just be citing traffic infractions as they observe them, but whomever decided they should be observing at a particular place and time and then specifically partnered with Ice is the one doing the racial discrimination. It's just racial targeting by another method. If that's constitutional, then fuck the constitution. After a few months of this kind of targeted harassment one could even point to OfFiCiAl cRiME sTaTs and claim that "Latinos are pulled over at a higher rate than other races and ethnicities," and the smoothest of smooth brained racists will start bleating on about a natural propensity to speed lodged within the Latino brainpan racist-lorry-driver

I hope every pig has a very nice officer-down
