This works so why are we even talking about canceling it.
Its unconstitutional, for starters. Did you not read the judge's ruling? Even if it works, its unconstitutional. You cannot be searched unless you have committed a crime or were caught in the act of committing a crime, or fleeing a crime scene.
Its not illegal for an adult to be in a playground, and no, you won't stop an adult for being in or near a playground. Ditto for a hoodie. You can dress as you please. And stop and frisk does not stop violent criminals. The majority of people, 90% are caught with nothing on them. Of the 10 percent who have something on them, much of that is drugs.
Youre also allowed to talk to approach anyone i like peacefully. Would you let that grown man approach your child in the park and talk to them without you there since its not illegal? Or how about if you're walking at night would you stop for the guy in the hoodie alone on the block if he told you "hey man do you have the time?" My guess is no, and if its yes then you're not from NY.
Denial these people are in you and I both know suspicious when we see it
Bloomberg is a rich White guy who has security to protect him and lives in a mansion.....he doesn't need to care, but he does.
It's pretty sad state when people don't care about other people.

I have sympathy for innocent people not animals that kill and do crimes for nothing.
And you're only helping my point. You really think most in the hood like bloomberg? If bloomber were to have his house robbed or anything where he would be in need of help it would not be the hood that would go out to help him. The same you are trying to care about would turn their back on you the second you're in trouble
Do folks on here feel that cops should not even be given descriptions of perps in terms of how they look (black male, mid twenties, 5'10", baggy shirt, tattoos on forearms; light skinned hispanic male, early to mid thirties, shaved head, trimmed beard; etc...)

Are you guys at that point?
Why should we make the job harder for cops? The more descriptions we have the quicker the suspect can be apprehended.

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.
Until it is you
