Add in all the petty weed charged and such are giving brothers records. Nah...
Unconstitutional. Simple as that.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois put out a report in 2015 documenting that the rate of police stops in Chicago in 2014 was more than four times higher than that in New York’s peak stop-and-frisk year of 2011. The report also found that a huge number of stops had not been motivated by any reasonable suspicion, that officers were not properly trained in the practice and the city was doing a poor job of collecting data related to the stops. As was the case in New York, the ACLU discovered that the police were disproportionately targeting black residents, who “were subjected to 72 percent of all stops, yet constitute just 32 percent of the city’s population.”
Meanwhile, police data showed that increases in police stops in Chicago did nothing to help prevent gun violence or solve murders.
Chicago implemented changes to its stop-and-frisk procedures after the Illinois ACLU threatened a lawsuit, resulting in a sharp decline in police stops beginning in October 2015. Since December 2015, the number of firearms recovered by police has been rising.
At 5:15 when CTG says all stop and frisk did was give officers a right to lawfully use racial profiling this dude envy says...so!?

They tried stop and frisk in Chicago, with a heavier hand, and it failed. During stop and frisk things actually got WORSE.
It is a racist ploy, don't believe the hype.

9 percent of people stopped were white. In New York.In 2011, New Yorkers were stopped by the police 685,724 times.
605,328 were totally innocent (88 percent).
350,743 were black (53 percent).
223,740 were Latino (34 percent).
61,805 were white (9 percent).
341,581 were aged 14-24 (51 percent)
Specifically, the New York Police Department uncovered a weapon in one out of every 49 stops of white New Yorkers, while for Latinos a weapon was found for every 71 stops, and for African Americans that number was 93 stops.
The NYPD uncovered contraband in one out every 43 stops of white New Yorkers. By contrast, it took the Department 57 stops of Latinos and 61 stops of African Americans to uncover contraband.
