When he first instituted it, I thought it was completely unconstitutional. Still do.
I’m all for aggressive policing but at least have reasonable cause or an outstanding warrant.
Agree that Blowme’s cowardice to defend his gestapo tactics is what is doing him in. Mr. “throw them against the wall” Toughguy is now Mr. “I’m sorry. I’ve evolved” Mary Poppins.
Nobody even seems to care about that angle: Stop and frisk is unconstitutional. If you declare martial law, then have at it - but don’t just do it as business as usual.
The ends only justified the means to many people because THEY weren’t the target.
1) he didn’t institute it.
2) the policy includes reasonable cause.
3) Bloomberg clearly doesn’t understand the policy.
“When he first instituted it, I thought it was completely unconstitutional. Still do.”
Agree. For all those supporting Bloomberg on S&F, would you support it in your own neighborhood?
