I was driving around 4am in the morning, with a car full of people, we weren't playing loud music because obviously in the UK that's illegal in housed areas after 11PM. The police pulled us over, it was clear because it was a group of young people, we asked them why, and they said there had been a huge robbery at SCAT College (the college I went to) so he needed to check I didn't have anything, so answer me this, if that were the reason, why did he then breathalize me? He says it's under suspicion of robbery.. what has that got to do with drink driving?
All I was saying is stereotyping is wrong and that aren't allowed to do it.

It's wrong because you think it's wrong? They won't admit it because it's opening them up to annoying ridicule that they don't need to deal with. They can just say "We stopped you because we did, that's all".
To be honest, the cop stopped you because he was bored. I was walking home at 3am a few months back on a Tuesday. Wasted from a night of drinking. Cops stopped me and searched me for drugs. Really, they were patrolling and seen an opportunity to pass some time. It didn't harm me, as I in fact didn't have drugs on me, just as it didn't harm you to breathalyse you. Worst case scenario? You aren't drunk, they ensure there isn't another drunk driver on the road, you have some minor incontinence. Best case scenario? They find a drunk driver and potentially save some lives.
Also, for all you know you could have been driving all of the road. Female and all that...
Cops learn about criminal profiling when they are training. That is a more accurate way to say stereotyping. They do not get in trouble in any way shape or form in stopping only kids in hoodies, and they will never be called up about it. They ARE allowed to do it because it's an effective technique to counter crime.

Are you actually reading what I'm saying? It's wrong because it's legally wrong. Go and study law at college and then come back and finish this argument because you are incapable of listening to anybody else. It's wrong in the context that legally they are not allowed to do it.
