I think that a most important point needs to be made here: Someone could be vicious and unfair to a person of another race without the victim's race being in any way, shape or form a motivation for the assailant's unjustified behavior. This anything-but-good cop may have just decided that he was going to act agressively, indecently and unprofessionally with regards to this driver. Race could have played a minimum role or none in this incident. It is not beyond reasonable doubt that this man was acting out of dislike/hatred of a purely racial nature. As no racial slurs were made nor any admission of his distaste for black men or people, I cannot logically qualify him as a racist on that incident alone.
It's much harder in today's world to establish without a shadow of a doubt someone's wrong behavior against another race (or even his own, which is a possibility) as being purely racially motivated as no one race in this country has been collectively persecuted for decades. Particularly before the Civil Rights Movement, black Americans were indeed a persecuted people, unprotected by anti-discrimination laws. That, in itself, made it much easier to make cases for racism when black persons were wronged by white people.
Finally, black folk also need to be constantly reminded that racism doesn't discriminate.
