German Court Allows Racial Profiling By Police

"The child keeps repeating Bapa, Bapa! He must be saying his father stole the bike!"

A German court has ruled that authorities can use skin color to carry out non-random identification checks, (here) in circumstances where skin color is indicative of heightened illegality. The court was responding to the case of police checking ID's on a train route commonly used by dark-skinned illegal immigrants.

So seriously, if dark-skinned German youths are indicated in bicycle thefts, the kid might really have something to worry about. "Uh, I must have dropped my ID when I went pottie, offizier - you gotta' believe me!"

Note: Bicycle seat is missing. Somebody call a cop!
