So once again, despite recorded evidence to the contrary, you're making the assertion that stop and frisk worked. It did not. And it's not me saying that. It's researchers that studied it.

And despite the policy being found explicitly racist in a court of law, you'll deny that too. I really have no interest in arguing with someone that denies reality.

Have a great day.

Except you’re wrong, there’s plenty that support the policy worked, but I acknowledge there’s disagreement on the matter, and you should at least do the same.

There’s probably just as much disagreement on whether it’s racist; and it’s not about whether anyone’s living in your reality or not.

I’m curious why you didn’t respond to my question about your actual experience on the matter. Do you even have a dog in this fight or are you just some arm chair liberal that likes to dismiss anything that doesn’t fit your worldview.
