...at an intersection, my window down. The light that was burned out had just done so without my knowlegde. It wasn't a front or rear light but one on the side.

"it sounds like you set yourself up to be stopped". Nah, I just got off work and was headed home.

I have family and friends in law enforcement and think they do a great job over all, but in this case, the officer went straight to wanting to search my vehicle. You or anyone else can't convince me that profiling people because of their looks or what they drive doesn't play a part in traffic stops, I've heard it from their mouths.
