What if they told you to strip, need to search you for drugs? Weapons? If you don’t, going to jail. Follow those orders too?
If I was a known drug kingpin sure. It's to be expected. And please stop using these NEVER GONNA happen examples to prove a non point. If you have a point - just make it. Stop being dramatic.

Ran his plate for what reason?
A Virginia court case within the last decade established that “an obstructed view” can be a primary offense in the Commonwealth (Virginia is a commonwealth).
- that means: the police have PC to initiate a stop for an obstructed view alone (ie - anything whatsoever hanging from your rear view mirror). This is not some outrage, it is a legal precedent you have lived with for years.
As for the question of “running the plates” - are all of you THAT ignorant of automatic plate readers now present on almost all police cars? You seriously did not know about them?
The cruiser’s computer “runs” every single plate it passes. Criminal warrants automatically appear as an alert on the car’s laptop computer.
Maybe you just can't read... you can't run his plate without the fake concern over the "air freshener". OP was wondering why they need the air freshener in the story, it because cops need a fake reason to run black people's tags.... like broken taillight.
These laws were put in place so cops can legally stop black people ... they need a fake legal reason to run the plate.
You can't just "run a plate" with out the fake rule.
Just like it being illegal to standing on a street corner is a fake law created to harass black people.

Police need no reason to run a plate.
No reason required. You're welcome for keeping you safe out there !

The warrant was over unpaid fines for 2 minor misdemeanors — one a marijuana case — totaling $346. He pled guilty, filed for deferred payment and they were sent to collections.

He was also a man that just could not possibly do as he was asked by an officer after being stopped for a legitimate offense. Officers don't know each person in the world personally. If they act irrationally, violent or erratic - they will respond in due course.
Don't try to justify yourself in the heat of the moment. Just follow orders.
