NYC is not what it used to be. Actually, it's gotten to be a haven for elitist pussies.
Nothing new here.

standard police procedure.
Not only here. The UK hired former NYPD chief William Bratton as consultant in order to implement the policy in London. They wanted him to run London PD but backed off because of potential public reaction towards a Yank foreigner in such a pivatal government position

Re: NYPD stop & frisk statistics (2009)
Since you said this, statistically who commit more crimes, African descent people or Caucasians?
I don't use the term black because I'm not black I am African descent and I never seen a white person in my life, it's all status classifications I know because I worked in law for many of years.
So don't answer as a black question answer it on an African descent vs Caucasian. thanks

Re: NYPD stop & frisk statistics (2009)
When I worked in a building next to a Met Police security checkpoint in the City of London in the early 90s, during the time of all the IRA bombings, we used to wonder just how many black guys the London cops seemed to think could be members of the IRA. (Clue: the IRA, being Irish, never had any black members).
Sadly, that basic race bias is every bit as bad as ever in the UK, according to the stats.
But pleasures are like poppies spread
You seize the flow'r, the bloom is shed

Re: NYPD stop & frisk statistics (2009)
Actually, they have down something suspicious. It's a pre-requisite for a "terry stop". There has to be an articulate-able reason to frisk. It's done for the protection of the officer and only on the outside of the clothes in an area where the officer believes there to be a weapon. It's a search for weapons. This has been argued by great minds since 1968. Don't dumb it down for HA.
