The NYT Editorial Board gained access to …50 hours of #ICE body camera footage from a single night in #Nashville.…

The footage reveals a pattern of overt #RacialProfiling that’s been approved by an unusual source: the Supreme Court. …Last year #SCOTUS gave ICE a green light to stop people based on their appearance or accent. This video shows the alarming results.

NYT references this report:
https://www.lighthousereports.com/investigation/license-to-profile/

“Lighthouse Reports in partnership with Mother Jones, the Nashville Banner, Nashville Noticias, NewsChannel 5 and the Institute for Public Service Reporting spent six months collecting and analyzing data, including thousands of pages of ICE documents, hundreds of criminal court records and Tennessee Highway Patrol incident reports. We also examined 50-plus hours of Tennessee Highway Patrol dashcam and bodycam footage.”

“We found that 75 percent of those detained in Nashville had no criminal record, and that state troopers and ICE appeared to racially profile Latino drivers. Troopers chose to ignore traffic violations to continue helping ICE, and they targeted neighborhoods with the largest number of Latino and immigrant families.”

Ummmm... I share the outrage. But this title is a joke, right?

The "Conservative" (Confederate) Supreme Court doing something AGAINST racial profiling?

Has to be. This is Kavanaugh Stops working as intended, even though he lied and said it would never happen when he approved them.
