I know... Some people are in such denial about the facts and who are committing the crimes in this city. That's what's hypocritical these days.
people doing all the crime and the people actually being falsely
accused, framed and convicted is not even being considered in
your opinion, so you're contradicting yourself even more. just
stop and frisk your face already. just because I'm black minding
my business means I should be stopped and frisked to you.

go jump in the hudson river!
I never stated such a thing and it is wrong of you to assume that. All I stated was that all groups are usually stopped and frisked relative to the amount of crime that they commit and that is true for the most part. Don't get angry at me for stating simple facts.
Stop and frisk is not a necessary evil, it's a common police tactic used nationwide.
The question should be how was S&F used pre-Bloomberg/Kelly? Was there similar outrage?
Another tidbit is that Kelly was appointed by Dinkins (a Black mayor), so I find it ridiculous that he can be perceived as being racist or employing racist tactics.
In general... are blacks dangerous? I'm just asking because if this is how you feel, then basically you've just been exposed as a race-baiting troll.
I said it was a great post. I didn't say Blacks are dangerous. Everyone was ganging up on the poster and she held firm against them and I applauded her for not being afraid to speak her mind. That doesn't mean I necessarily agreed with what she said.
I don't know why people like stop and Frisk or even agree with it. You guys just go with whatever the goverment puts on you. Fingerprinting people in public housing pretty much punishing the poor. I never did anything wrong so I shouldn't be labeled a criminal its so dumb. Wait until they start putting drones in the sky and stalking us like that and thats yet to come. Bet you guys will agree with that to rebel sometimes people don't just accept everything.!!
The "damned good reason" is the greater good, namely for the law-abiding citizens of the neighborhoods where most crimes occur. There people are overwhelmingly in favor of stop-and-frisk. Stop-and-frisk targets blacks and Latinos because 92% of homicides are caused by blacks/Latinos.
A specific reason is needed, not nebulous authoritarian reasons like "the greater good".
