![Racial Profiling and Police Stops](https://brettpodolsky.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Depositphotos_6910047_m-2015.jpg)
Police officers sometimes stop individuals who they feel look suspicious. Sometimes these individuals look suspicious because they’re dressed a certain way or drive a particular kind of car. Other times, they are stopped because of their race. Although clearly in violation of the law, racial profiling does occur, and there is a very fine line between reasonable suspicion and targeting someone because of his or her skin color.
