he didn't have it out, like the other thousand white kids carrying cases in their hands. out in the open. He had a bottle of water (16.9 oz) that was 1/4 full of a weak mixed drink... in his back pocket. We had backpacks of beer, rum, etc. We were DRINKING in front of the cops.
Sure, technically, he was doing illegal shit. But out of everyone doing much more illegal shit, why single out the only non-white kid?
