No that's not entirely correct. The reason Blacks may have more interaction with the Police is because collectively as a group they don't use their heads. It's really not about race. Cops really don't key on race as much as the media would like you to believe. Cops key on stupidity Blacks draw more attention to themselves than whites do. Here's an example, Blacks driving around with that loud boom box shit in the trunk of their cars disrupting other motorists and even residents near by. Many cities have loud music ordinances against such a thing. A citizen either makes a complaint or an Officer on patrol happens to observe the violation and makes a stop. During the stop the Officer finds contraband in plain view or has Probable Cause to legally search the vehicle and finds contraband and makes an arrest. The driver and or passengers are arrested and vehicle is towed, all over a simple noise violation that should have been avoided. That's how many African Americans get arrested, by being stupid by drawing attention to themselves while driving with illegal cargo.

Same as you wrote, cop walks up, smells weed or sees weapons or whatever, get the driver or a passenger on outstanding warrants and whatever he smelled or seen.
Never understood the drug mules that got caught because they got pulled over for speeding or tail light/headlight out. Never had their head in the game to do a vehicle inspection or follow all traffic rules regardless how anal they seemed.
