Well I don't know. I think the driving while black thing, in everyday situations, is pretty bad. However, the whole black celeb thing can get a little dicey. I mean, in my situation (from Atlanta), think about the decisions the police have to make. I agree that an ordinary black guy driving home getting pulled over is probably a bad use of racial profiling. But in town, where you have a lot of shady things going on involving rappers and such, I think the scrutiny is warranted. It depends on the situation, for example my neighborhood really doesnt have any black families, so someone driving through in a tinted window car with rims would raise eyebrows. I'm not saying they should get pulled over just for it, but I understand the suspicion behind it in certain situations.
