But you're right. That's why I made my example a young black man. How much effect would this photo have on you? And what are the statistics? Yeah right, the people pulled over for that extra scrutiny. Which probably including plenty of young, nonwhite men.
I think their choice of a frail looking old white lady was deliberate. So sue me.
