Deputy takes man's Xbox during traffic stop

The known hazards of "driving while black" may have to be amended to add those of driving while black, dreadlocked, and toting an Xbox. When Kenyatta Hillman and a friend were pulled over by an Orange County traffic cop for speeding outside Orlando, FL, the deputy claimed to smell marijuana and searched the car. No drugs were found, but the deputy did spot an Xbox and eight games and seized them from Hillman, alleging they might have been stolen. When reading this story and it does seem that the officer was way out of line. I do think that cops are pretty unfairly represented in the media. When some mess up, it makes them all look bad. It was a pretty stupid call on the officer’s part, but there may be more to the story. Papa Chuck
