According to a Stanford Institute project called “The Open Policing Project” which looked at over 100 million police traffic stops.
In what country would it be acceptable to stop and question millions of people? Certainly not America the land of the free, right?
Police take millions of dollars from motorists every year
For years, police have had to meet ticket quotas during their shifts. A Google search for “do police have quotas” returned over 5 million hits and a Google search for “police ticket quotas 2017” returned close to 6 million hits.
It’s 2017 and we still don’t know how many motorists are being stopped and ticketed in America!
States like California and Texas have stopped 24-32 million motorists from 2009-2015. While states like Rhode Island and Montana have stopped approximately 500,000-825,000 motorists.
For all the talk of open policing and transparency, this project proves that it’s all just talk.
Secrecy is a cops number one priority.
Colored drivers are two to three times more likely to be searched
This is the first study, that shows police are stopping and questioning thousands of motorists every day and millions of passengers every year.
The next time you’re stopped by the police, exercise your right not to speak. To travel freely in America is not a privilege, it is one of our constitutional rights.
