Simple. Cops do random pulls all the time. By statistics random black driver has better chances of breaking some law than random white driver. Its not like cops do not pull over white guys for same bullshit reasons.
Its like when you walk at night, one sidewalk two black people, another sidewalk two white people. If you are smart you would go towards white people. And its nothing wrong, its educated choice. Correct profiling. Absolutely nothing wrong with it.
By the way add to the fact that she was black in white town. I would bet my money if white person drove in all black town he/she would be pulled off more often than average person from that town as well. So add that into account as well...
