  1. Drug sniffing dogs are not reliable.

  2. Bus with innocent kids inside is swerving
    Police: I better check and make sure everyone is safe.
    Black Woman: WHYYYY??? I’m soooo sorrry children that you had to go through that! These racist cops!!!!!

  3. Black Lady: Why?
    Video: You were swerving all over the road……..we’re checking for drugs.
    Black Lady: I’m sorry children that you went through that.
    Common Sense: Went through what? A bus was searched, it’s over, no big deal… That’s what happens when you choose to use the road, you are now held accountable for your actions/inactions and may be searched, like everyone else……

  4. They still exist Hillbilly racist goon sqauds ,self righteous bigoted racist hoping they can catch a Ebony school in some kind of wrong when they are the true hoodlums,thieves and murderes

  5. * l will forever be indebted to you, you have changed my entire life and l will continue to preach on your name for the world'to hear that you save me from huge flnancial debt with little investment thank you very much Expert Sophia

  6. Police are the largest gangs we have in America

  7. This is why I don't recycle anymore, and never will 😁😁😁

  8. We're not racists, we violate everyone's rights!

  9. California does this all the time also.

  10. looks like one of the deputies was black, so how can these be racist?

  11. That search was un called for, defund the police definitely the law is for profit bottom line. All of them cops are the same thing looking to profit.

  12. THE SONG WHEN I WAS IN SUNDAY SCHOOL WENT LIKE THIS: JESUS LOVES ALL THE CHILDREN OF THE……WORLD! RED, YELLOW BLACK AND WHITE THEY ARE ALL PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT! NOT WHEN HE FELT LIKE IT OR WHAT DAY OF THE WEEK 💜🙏❤️🦋 LOVE YOUR BROTHER AND SISTER'S IN JESUS NAME 🙏❤️

  13. Sniffing dogs need to go away at the traffic stops. It's proven they're unreliable in detecting drugs.

  14. Good. I remember when this happened.

  15. Why can"t the police just plant the drugs?

  16. This isn't the first time this has happened

  17. The new KKK is with the badge , look up Camden county cops beating an inmate almost to death

  18. The common man isn't fooled by the cops games anymore so now they got to go after the naive children that's pathetic. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!!

  19. Every altercation you have with any individual is racist cuz you're under the presumption of guilt not to presumption of innocence. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!! He's got something in his pockets I know it.

  20. Nothing like a shakedown from the good old boys who just want to get some dirt on you and take you to jail and ruin your day. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!! We know the dog will alert on donuts cuz look they found a box of Krispy Kreme donuts in there and the dog was like where's mine.

  21. Policing needs a radical reform. Leave college students alone. Stop with the minor traffic stops. Legalize marijuana. Hire mental health professionals for most calls. Make sure all stores have cameras to catch burglars instead of confronting them on sight and getting killed.

    Let these slave patrols focus on real crime: gun dealers, drug cartels, DUIs and domestic terrorism. Police need focus not going through dirty underwear of college students.

  22. It turned into a drug search because SOMEONE GOT NERVOUS!!!!

  23. blacks like wee'e an' craaa'ak….But that is NOT Probalbe Cause enough.

  24. This is what cops do every minute of everyday towards Black people. Minor stops often turn deadly because these are nothing but slave patrols. This has everything to do with racism and white supremacy. The Sheriff is lying!! Of course, these incidents happen in Georgia and South Carolina.

  25. We know why…. it's 2022 and still

  26. They did not know they were black until they stuck their head inside the bus and saw what color they were.

  27. Racial profiling 🤣🤣Use to be called street smarts

  28. Its sure not about protection of the girls more like nazi Germany policing 😥

  29. This is America – Childish Gambino

  30. evil trumpist cops must go

  31. They were after the donuts.

  32. A bus from an "historically Black college" driving through a Southern state, in a backward country flooded with weapons which celebrates violence and still uses slave labor. What could possibly go wrong.

  33. Starbucks need more slave laborers

  34. That stop had everything to do with racism

  35. All blacks are criminals but the real criminals are whites……Donald Trump as an example…..😆

  36. This is old news. MSNBS must have run out of "I'm the victim" stories.

  37. merrick garland is a feckless, incompetent coward. The DOJ will do nothing.

  38. Being black isn’t an excuse to victimize yourself in every situation.

  39. The blk cop that searched them is racist huh lol

  40. I guess the dogs are racist lmfao

  41. Why do they continue search when they see its a sports team on way to or from event …..I mean ya its possible they have drugs in same way anybody could have drugs but cmon man….
