Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
William Breathes's report about Gabriel Campbell, who was driving a car with Colorado plates when he was pulled over in Texas and found to have five pounds of marijuana in his trunk put one reader in mind of alleged marijuana profiling.
In the case of someone she knows, however, the word "alleged" doesn't seem appropriate.
Here's her post.

He was told because of the plastic bins in his vehicle and because of Colorado plates the whole vehicle was to be searched. Nothing found. Over 2 hours wasted.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
