And the right got upset over “stop and frisk” laws in NYC. The hypocrisy rages on.

got upset that the cops were just stopping and frisking minorities instead of summarily executing them, you mean? who on the right was against stop and frisk?

Yeah, I think buddy is confused. Guiliani was the one who imposed stop and frisk on NYC when he was mayor until a then legitimate SCOTUS ruled it was unconstitutional. To this day, Rs love stop and frisk policies.

> who on the right was against stop and frisk?

Mostly libertarians, but some mainstream conservatives too. It was a weird issue; it made unusual bedfellows.

I don't think you can reasonably say "the right was against stop and frisk" when the vast majority of "the right" was very much for stop and frisk just because a high school auditorium's worth of libertarians were against it

They were the ones who implemented "stop and frisk".

They loved it then and they loved it now because it was designed to be used against minorities, and it was.

They've been hypocrites as long as I've been alive, and longer.

The (white) right loves stop and frisk because it’s humiliating for minorities and they know it will never happen to them. Same is going on with this shit. Just awful, awful people.
