Being stopped and searched on the street doesn't seem to have affected habeas corpus or freedom of speech in New York City. No New Yorker has been sent to a gulag for criticizing Bloomberg. That I know of, anyway...
While it would be ideal if the Second Amendment rights of all New Yorkers were restored, the reality is that New Yorkers have to live in a city where only criminals are armed. Until New Yorkers recover their right to carry personal weapons, their only recourse is to insist on a level playing field, such that criminals are disarmed via stop-and-frisk.
So you’ve willingly surrendered your rights. And we wonder why people like Bloomberg keep getting elected.
New Yorkers are certainly NOT raising a ruckus about the gun laws there. Not the city dwellers anyway, the upstate area where actual conservatives live have tried but are simply outnumbered.
You have an odd notion that a police state doesn't exist until people are arrested for dissent. First, if I refuse to be stopped and frisked, that is dissent, and I would be arrested, no?
That said, a police state exists when your free actions are unreasonably constrained by the power of the state. It doesn't matter whether the state's intentions are good or bad. Of course, a good king is better than a bad king, but that should not be the choice presented to free peoples.
