NYC stop and frisk quite racist.

If a minority cop threatened to hit a white kid on video tape he probably would have lost his job.

LOL

yeah, no, these days he would get a medal from the groups that have hijacked my race for their own political gain

and as person of mixed race and a parent I have absolutely no problem with racial profiling, it works.

You're setting a bad example. Do you have self hate too?

This is not justifiable, and is a system that should be demolished.

However, this kid needs to learn to shut the fuck up. Seriously. My God, I wanted to punch him myself.

It's also (should be) fucking illegal.

4th Amendment
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Argue all you want, but police randomly stopping and searching people should not be looked upon as a deterrent or a good thing. It's an unconstitutional seizure and should not be condoned. I consider it a severe breech of liberty.

Please try to read your Common Law rulings with a little more perspicacity next time.

The racism is from calling him a "fucking mutt".

I believe that would be "prejudice" at the MOST.

Calling someone a Mutt isn't Racism, it is about as racist as calling someone a Bitch.

If he's making remarks about his ethnicity in a derogatory fashion, as calling someone a "fucking mutt" clearly is then its racist. You're attacking him and insulting him based on his race.

No, its not.

Why do people actually give a fuck if black people are stopped more frequently than white people? Is there an actual quota of how many black people should be frisked so it's 'okay'? Are we (whites) supposed to be frisked more because black people get frisked more? I'd much rather see black people frisked 5 times a day than to avoid frisking them because they feel they are victims of racism. Also, you should respect the uniform regardless of your race.

I see in this thread:

1 Decent non racist people
2. People who say not all police are like that (which is true and ok)
3. Racists defending racist actions, you can't talk the officer around this one you xenophobic assholes. He called him a mutt.

Calling someone a Mutt is just as Racist as calling someone a cracker.

Seriously do people even know what a Mutt refers to? Mixed breed people...

It is still prejudice. Seems mankind forgot the meaning of Racism these days.

So you don't have any problem with people being stopped not because of the situation they're in, but because of their race?
