Are we going to someday become a country that truly treats people equally? We are not anywhere near that at the moment. We have different groups of people all over the country that go out of their way to pick on pretty much anyone that is not essentially a clone of them.
Despite the claims to the contrary Ferguson for instance is quite obviously a town that is incredibly racist.
We need to stop this but in order to do it we really need to make sure that every single registered voter gets to the polls in November. We also need to fix the voter suppression laws that are in place in a lot of states. We absolutely need require voter ID but that is all. Getting rid of early voting is stupid. It is not just one party that votes in early voting so there is no reason to stop it.
As far as profiling goes there is finally an fairly serious attempt to stop it. Check out this article.
