Re: Obama Speech Tuesday morning 3/18/08
I am not sure if "driving while black" stories are that good a ground to discuss the racial problems in many communities still.
I posted and still post on Findlaw's message boards a lot and there were various active police and or correctional officers on there for years. One story comes to mind of a scantilly clad very attractive African American-Asian American 21 year old woman with severe mental problems who was stopped by police but let go not too soon afterwards even though she had a long history of suicide attempts and the like. The police should have done more with this black-asian woman but she did not seem to be any kind of threat so they let her go. She drove her car over the median into oncoming traffic a few weeks after according to a TN or KY newspaper article of around New Year's Day 2004. She died not to soon after this collision.
