#1 - He's Black.

#2 - That's how the police in America operate now; even for the most common interactions w/the public.

I know this may sound like I'm being an asshole, but I'm not.

You cannot generalize police forces across the entire country that way. I've never had such an interaction with a police officer, presumably because the police department in my city is run better than that.

		That's lucky. My county sheriff implemented predictive policing [1] until they were forced to stop because of many constitutional violations. 1. https://ij.org/press-release/case-closed-pasco-sheriff-admit...

They did the same when they raided Roger Stone.

If you were to take a positive intent approach:

- the warrant was for distribution of narcotics and kiddnapping.

If I were to guess what a list of most dangerous warrants to execute, those two would be up there.

If you note in the video, he jokingly plays around the drugs part. I am not sure where the kidnapping part comes from, but Afroman is not necessarily a household name amongst middle-aged white police officers, so I imagine they just saw "drugs and kidnapping" and went for it.

And that's part of the issue.

The kidnapping claim was there was a sex dungeon in the house. The house does not have a basement.

And all of this was obviously pretextual, unless you believe drugs and women were hidden between cds or in whatever pieces of the kitchen they destroyed.
