"I pulled a car over last night for texting and driving. When I went to talk to the driver, I found a young black male, who was looking at me like he was absolutely terrified with his hands up."
"He said, 'What do you want me to do officer?' His voice was quivering. He was genuinely scared."
"I just looked at him for a moment, because what I was seeing made me sad. I said, "I just don't want you to get hurt."
...
"I truly don't even care who's fault it is that young man was so scared to have a police officer at his window. Blame the media, blame bad cops, blame protestors, or Colin Kaepernick if you want. It doesn't matter to me who's to blame. I just wish somebody would fix it."
