I’d love a NY cop to try to stop & frisk me on one of my infrequent visits there.
You’ll end up in a NYC jail, probably after making close friends with a broom handle.
Why would you love it?
Would it fulfill some tough-guy/street lawyer fantasy?
How do you think things would go?
Would you refuse to cooperate and walk away?
Would you refuse to cooperate and argue fine legal points, dazzling the cop with your knowledge?
Do you think you would intimidate the cop into backing down just by your physical posture?

It doesnt matter what the law is. A cop can murder you and his word is more credible than most any witnesses.
Cops can do anything they want unless they know a camera is around. And even then, the tape often ends up lost or the equipment broken during the investigation.
Make sure you have a hidden camera that automatically records to a remote server before you challenge them. You might win the lottery and scare some dirty cops.
