A South Carolina NAACP chapter president who says he was racially profiled during a traffic stop was accused of lying after police released video footage of the encounter, according to reports.

"Tonight, I was racially profiled by Timmonsville Officer CAUSE I WAS DRIVING A MERCEDES BENZ AND GOING HOME IN A NICE NEIGHBORHOOD," Timmonsville NAACP President Rev. Jerrod Moultrie said in an April 13 Facebook post, according to Fox 5 Atlanta.

[snip]"When I saw the video, I was shocked that someone who is supposed to be a community leader, a pastor, and head of the NAACP would just come out and tell a blatant lie,” the police chief said. “It bothered me. It really bothered me, thinking about the racial unrest it could've cost in the community and it's just troubling to me that someone who held a position like that would come out and just tell a lie.”

False charges of racism should be treated the same was as false charges of rape.

Apparently they are. The accusers are not prosecuted.

I guess those body cams are backfiring. Been happening more and more and it won’t be long before the cams are considered racist.

Here in NJ we recently had two leftist politicians exposed by these cop cams; they won’t be around for long. As another FReeper pointed out when these programs started, those who clamored loudest for them will be the ones trying to get rid of them.
