    He should have listened. But being told something by a dispatcher is not the same as being told something by a police officer. If you buy that.

    Are you saying Hispanics get preferential treatment?

    Show me the law that says what a dispatcher tells him to do does not have any legal force behind it while what a police officer says does.

    Right after you show me the law that says a dispatcher has the same authority as a police officer.

    OK. Tell me the last time you received a ticket, even a parking ticket, from a police dispatcher.
    Then you can show me the law that says a dispatcher has the same authority as a police officer.

    In the Zimmerman case it's a distinction without a difference.

    Does a dispatcher bust people for Calling While Black?

    He has caller ID, so he is able to profile.
