We're all prisoners now.
"Stop and frisk" just another indicator that America has morphed into one giant prison, but just don't let the lack of bars fool ya.

Stop, frisk and ask for papers. Where have we HEARD OF THAT BEFORE?


I prefer crime, terrorism and the fear of violent assault to having to put up with "Papers, Please".

Stop and Frisk is unconstitutional.......any Agents who does this should be sued, or worse.
