I prefer that they continue to stop and frisk - even if they stop and frisk me now and then.Admittedly, that's the problem as the vast majority of people who are stopped and frisked tend to look more like Easy and less like you. So to you, it's a minor inconvenience, but to somebody who lives within those neighbourhoods and has been frisked multiple times, or knows people who has been frisked, it comes across as a perverse personal insult even if the cops are relatively polite about the process. It will always been seen as a racial issue, and never has a safety and crime prevention issue from the perspective of those most likely to be frisked. |
