Man Perfectly Responds To Police Questioning His ?Jogging While Black?
 
video at the link at the end of this article

An Alabama man stands up for his rights, and wins.

While going for a jog the other night an Alabama man, Corey Dickerson, was faced with the nightmarish reality many people of color face today: being racially profiled by police. Dickerson decided to take a break to catch his breath when he was stopped by a police officer and asked to identify himself.

In Alabama, police officers are legally allowed to stop any person they suspect of committing a crime and ask the ?suspect? to explain their actions. Conscious of this ?stop and identify? policy, Dickerson asks if the officer suspects him of committing a crime.

While trying to backtrack, the officer explains that there have been robberies in the neighborhood, and cites a woman living nearby who has been robbed twice. Dickerson, a resident of the neighborhood, is aware of these robberies, noting that they happened years ago.

As a Hail Mary, the officer mentions gun violence in the area, but Dickerson rebuts that scenario involved teenagers, and he is an adult.

After claiming that he had been a victim of police violence before, the officers seem to run out of excuses for stopping Dickerson and the video ends. While he was fortunately spared a more serious interaction, or arrest, the cost to his time and dignity are inestimable.

When the cop asked him "What are you running from?"...the guy should have said, "Heart Disease."

Is it just me or does the video end before we see what happens at the end? He gets to the part where he starts talking about being in court 2 weeks ago for trespassing and sounds unsure of whether he has any warrants then the video ends.

total bs in that it turns out he was in trouble recently. This type of stuff has to get so old for the cops.

brasshat is now wishing the video should have ended earlier so it would have been a more credible source for his racist agenda.
