With all due respect, the "stop and frisk" meme is a lie.

It's not what the NYPD policy, or ever was.

It was basically a policy that said to the beat coppers "guys, you need to do your jobs. If you observe someone breaking the law or someone who meets the legal definition of reasonably suspected of breaking the law, we expect you too stop him and conduct an investigation. And, by the way, prior to that investigation, in accordance to Terry v. Ohio, please conduct a pat-down for weapons".

They had to have a legal reason to detain someone, always have. This new law is just a way of telling the police to let the thugs run amok. No civilized society can survive under that regime.
