Wow, what the hell does a politician know about criminal justice? The balls this man must have to think he can exert control over the justice system. Good luck dude, but if you really want to change police policy then i suggest you switch your career and become a supreme court judge or something. But while we are on the topic, is stop and frisk necessary? I say yes, it was designed for police protection and by extension civilian protection as well. Also, a officer cannot perform the stop and frisk unless there is some due cause or under specific circumstances. So whats the big deal anyway? But this also raises another question, do politicians actually have some sort of control on our justice system and if they do...should they? Sounds pretty sketchy to me, i personally think they shouldn't have anything to do with each other. History has taught us that.
