When a young non-white male is stopped and searched at the whim of a police officer, his idea of personal space, privacy and self esteem are shattered, to say nothing of his Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment protections.

It takes only one drink to get me drunk. The trouble is, I can't remember if it's the thirteenth or the fourteenth.
