Time to Profile White People

When pulled over by police and searched, black people are less likely than whites to have something illegal in their car.

Black people are pulled over and searched more often than white people, even though they are less likely in possession of something illegal.

If racial profiling were justified, police should focus their profiling on white people. The truth is though it isn't about catching criminals, it is about catching black criminals.

Can we please, please, start letting facts get in the way?

The charts are from the Washington Post article "Police are searching black drivers more often, but finding more illegal stuff with white drivers" by Jeff Guo.
