stop and frisk violates the 4th Amendment. Police MUST have an articulate and reasonable suspicion that you have committed a crime, are committing a crime, or are about to commit a crime in order to detain you for investigative purposes. The fact that the NYPD has gotten away with it for so long is those that are affected cannot find a lawyer or afford a lawyer willing to take the case.
A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.
