Oh, come on, that's so... so... 2020

Police in St. Paul, Minnesota, released bodycam footage Tuesday of a traffic stop involving Minnesota state Rep. John Thompson (D) after the lawmaker claimed he was racially profiled. 

A St. Paul police officer pulled Thompson over early in the morning on July 4, saying that the lawmaker was driving without a front license plate, which is illegal in Minnesota. Thompson claimed during the traffic stop, and in a statement released afterward, that the police officer pulled him over because he is black.

    "Thompson’s license had been suspended in 2019 after he failed to pay child support".

    But but but but but, that's what welfare is for.

    The POS was driving on a Wisconsin permit. That should be grounds for removal from office. It won't, he's a loyal communist.

    A whole segment of society that has become exempt from general rules and common sense behavior that the rest of us practice....oh well, let them have at it.

    “Pretextual stops have been shown to not only do little to stop serious crimes, but they also disproportionately target nonwhites"

    BULLSHIT- any cop knows traffic stops account for most felony arrests in most police departments.

    How did they know he was black in the dark?
