Yury, I'm so glad you're asking this question. It's an important one that I can imagine many people are asking.

It is tough to generalize, but there are some very interesting statistics on this front that make it possible to identify very disparate outcomes across racial lines. From The New Jim Crow, the book noted in the article:

- 45% of non-whites are frisked when pulled over compared to 29% of whites, even though whites are 70% more likely to carry a weapon.

- Whites are 2.5 times less likely to have their car searched when pulled over than non-whites.

And from the NAACP:

- African Americans and whites use drugs at similar rates, but the imprisonment rate of African Americans for drug charges is almost 6 times that of whites.

- African Americans represent 12.5% of illicit drug users, but 29% of those arrested for drug offenses and 33% of those incarcerated in state facilities for drug offenses.

There are complex reasons behind this, obviously -- some great, detailed reports on this topic. For example, https://www.sentencingproject.org/publications/color-of-justice-racial-and-ethnic-disparity-in-state-prisons/

You are right that it is possible to question the motives involved in an individual incident. I totally agree with your last paragraph that we need to understand first. But there's also a pattern that emerges when you zoom out and look at the bigger picture that ought to disturb every American who believes in the pledge of allegiance: "liberty and justice for all".

Warm regards, Tim
