We are Brits and have a second home in TV. So largely we cannot comment on US affairs. But I share a story.
One night we were driving in from MCO.
As we entered Wildwood we were surrounded by 3 cop cars. We didn’t realise our main beams weren’t on. I guess our accents helped. It was a scary incident. They were on the lookout for drugs people. We didn’t fit the profile. Were we privileged? Coming from the UK I don’t know. I would like to think that 99.9% of cops would have treated everybody equally. Just as in the US we in the UK have a few rotten apples who have their own agenda. Whatever your views it would be hard to find any justification in this recent incident or any that are like it.
