Welcome to the origin of the “it’s illegal to [x] while black” meme. It’s illegal to drive while black. It’s illegal to have money while black. It’s illegal to eat chips while black. It’s illegal to sleep in your own bed while black. Etc, etc, etc… All of these are examples of times black people have been profiled and discriminated against for no reason other than the color of their skin.
First I heard was driving while black, because black people are stopped 10 times more frequently than whites. I know the term.
I was just pointing out that being racist and discriminating based on color is de facto illegal, while doing x while black is not.

The racist police.
