After thoroughly searching the car, the officer removed the handcuffs and let the couple go. “No apology, no nothing,” White wrote. White says he won’t stop talking about the incident until “that racist cop” is reprimanded and punished. “We’ve been conditioned to just think that it’s OK — that we have to just sweep it under the rug,” White told HLN. “But we’re not doing that no more. We’re fighting.” By Monday morning, the story had received nearly 700,000 views — making it the fourth most-viewed iReport of all time — and hundreds of comments about racial profiling and law enforcement in South Carolina and elsewhere. Many readers said they had experienced similar situations. Actress Kinnik Sky was among those who shared the story on her Facebook page. Sky, who was born and raised in Columbia, South Carolina, said she knew White and Johnson’s account “to be absolutely true.” “I was like, ‘Wow, boy can I relate,’ because I am fearful of the cops as a whole, especially in South Carolina. My experiences have always been horrible.” The former “American Idol” finalist said whenever she returns from Los Angeles to her hometown she gets stopped by police “80% of the time” and questioned about drugs. On a recent trip she was “stopped, pulled over and questioned about every drug known to man,” she said.
During the month of October, in support of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Hollywood Casino will have a dedicated Pink Ribbon Blackjack table from which 5% of the winnings will be donated to support Womans Hospital Foundation with a minimum donation of $1,000 and a maximum of $5,000. Dealers on the casino floor will be wearing pink promotion t-shirts and other employees will wear pink ribbons in honor of this cause. Along with the Pink Ribbon Blackjack table, Hollywood Casino will be hosting the Womans Hospital Mobile Mammography Coach on Monday, October 14 from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. The Womans Mobile Coach provides convenience to women in the Baton Rouge area making it easier to get screenings. The Mobile Coach makes mammography more accessible than ever before. Anyone who would like to take advantage of the convenience will need to present their insurance card and a doctors order for screening. Hollywood Casino General Manager Jim Rigot said, Helping out our local community and being a good community partner is something Hollywood Casino is committed to. By donating to the Womans Hospital Foundation, our donation will stay local and directly impact the Baton Rouge community. Turning one of our blackjack tables pink for the month is just a fun and unique way that we can support the cause.
