from the New York American Civil Liberties Union, at stop-and-frisk’s height in 2011 under Bloomberg, over 685,000 people were stopped; nine out of 10 were innocent of wrongdoing.But Bloomberg was a true believer, despite the growing data that showed that this was a faulty practice.
“I don’t know where they went to school but they certainly didn’t take a math course. Or a logic course.”But in August 2013, a federal judge ruled that the New York Police Department’s stop-and-frisk policyof blacks and Latinos “who would not have been stopped if they were white.” In a 195-page decision, Judge Shira A. Scheindlin noted that the NYPD had a complete disregard for the Fourth Amendment and the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause.
“I think people, the voters, want low crime,” Mr. Bloomberg said. “They don’t want kids to kill each other.”But now he’s sorry, because to be the Democratic nominee for president, he has to pretend to care about the black and Latino voters he would otherwise gladly have thrown against the wall. A newindicated that 22 percent of black voters nationwide support Bloomberg, putting him just behind Biden who has 27 percent of the share has is falling, rapidly.
