I think in this day and age we should look for proof that it wasn't for his political beliefs. Did you see the video of his arrest ? do you know that he wasn't allowed to speak to a lawyer, was held without charges being laid, was refused a blanket of all things? that there were not one or two but several police officers dealing with him? that all of this was that he supposedly was going 74 in a 65 zone? give me a break, if that wasn't political then it was an odd case of police ganging up on someone for fun or may be to meet a quota. I agree that the latter was also possible but the fact that he was pulled over shortly before and obviously made the police chatter strongly indicates that this was more than a quota.
