    Police "running tags" on motorists who've done nothing wrong is a rights violation that has been "normalized"https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/885162853468000256 …

        As a service to your readers, check how (in some areas) cop cars now "run plates" automatically, everywhere they go. https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/04/how-license-plate-readers-have-helped-police-and-lenders-target-the-poor/479436/ …

        Running tags is a process. The bogus reason for doing it was tinted windows. What a joy listening to the cop slobber all over himself.

        The real problem is the flimsy pretense. "Dark windows." "Smelled marijuana." Etc...

        He doesn't say "nothing comes up." He says "nothing came back - never seen that before" He claims the plate didn't show up in system at all.

        They run tags all the time. Even Marshals have plate readers on the sides of the police cars as they drive. Warrant comes back and 🚨🚨🚨
