Blacks Can Flee Police

The Supreme Judicial Court heldunanimously that a black male in Boston, when approached by the police, "might just as easily be motivated by the desire to avoid the recurring indignity of being racially profiled as by the desire to hide criminal activity."

The court pointed to statistics in a recent Boston Police Department report that revealed that "black men in the City of Boston were more likely to be targeted for police-civilian encounters such as stops, frisks, searches, observations and interrogations."

You meant to say "black people" right?

What stupid ruling. If blacks are just as likely to hide criminality, well, then they can get away with it.

Blacks get all the breaks.
