Surprise, Surprise...
As far as I know, there is no evidence or correlation between one's race and their ethnic background. To assume that blacks and hispanics are being searched more frequently then their white counterparts because of their higher incidences of crime is a mistake. Although the data does not show causation for increased search rates or violent contact with officers and k-9's, we should still be concerned with this increased incidence rate and the impact it has on our minority communities.
This is just another example of how this administation tries to control the flow of information. It is not surprising that they would try to ignore this important research seeing that they have been known to pitch propaganda to local media outlets as actual news. With further research I feel that we would uncover a lot more useful information that the Department of Justice would like to ignore as well. Politics and research do not go hand in hand. This data ha no political motives what-so-ever. We are just reporting the facts.
