Police intimidation caught on tape - again
I saw this story in GD. A (apparently white) guy asks for a complaint form at various police stations in South Florida and gets no forms at 35 of the 38 cop shops he visits. Some of the cops got out of control just because the guy asked for a complaint form.

If the guy wasn't white, who knows what would have happened.

There is also a snippet on a pretty clear-cut case of racial profiling.
