You don't think there's stereotypes about that or that that matters if


some cops think they can get away with bullying black people more?

There's no way for us to know 100% if this was racially motivated or not, so I am not automatically assigning racism blame to them, nor am I even willing to say it's "most likely."

At best it's a gross abuse of police power and illegal for them to search without probable cause. There's also a decent chance that if they had boarded the bus and found it to be full of white good ol' boy football players they wouldn't have gone through with the search because they wouldn't have wanted to jeopardize the players' eligibility & future for a (potential) drug bust.

Again, not definitely racism because we just can't know based on the available info, but you are giving a lot more benefit of the doubt to the cops than they were willing to give a bus of black college lacrosse players.
