The worst part about this crap is that back in "the day" (so like 70yr ago and before) stops (both of pedestrians and motorists) were known to be discretionary and treated as such. If an officer exercised poor discretion that was a legitimate gripe you could air in court. Now with all the laws everyone violates all the time over the course of being a normal person and behaving normally they have a pretext with which to justify any stop they want.
