Veteran was stopped while carrying a large-screen TV.
The Kansas ACLU wants to know why a black man was detained by police while he was moving into his new house late at night. Police stopped Karle Robinson, 61, as he was carrying a large-screen television into the house. He was handcuffed outside for 8 minutes last August, the Kansas City Star reports.

I'd like people who are convinced there is no discrimination explain the above to me.
meh, my grandson was handcuffed and detained for a crack in his tail light. Given a ticket for no insurance although he had proof of insurance and a ticket for revoked license although he had a valid drivers license. He is white.

Reminds me (in reverse) of when a delivery van pulled up to my neighbors house. I thought they were delivering something. I did not call the police. They took lots of things.
I would suspect the police handcuffed him because a concerned neighbor called the police.

Doesnt count. Your grandson is not the proper shade to warrent discrimination insinuations. Ive had family members undeservedly roughed up by a few certain cops but that dont count either.
What time is "late at night"?
Any recent reports/Ring Video of crime that may have matched this scenario?
Did he own or rent? DId he have access to any deed/lease during this time?

Yeah, yeah. It only counts if your black. Happens to a black person its discrimination, same thing happens to a white person it doesn't count.
...it because I'm black.
no its because some people suck.
