Look at the data.
Stop and frisk has been debunked.
It was not successful.
What it resulted in was the targeting and surveillance of black and brown people.
That's right.
And by the way, stop and frisks of black and Latino folks are up under Mayor Eric Adams since 2022.
You know, I learned the story of a young man named Naeem Sofas.
This is like a...
You don't have to be perfect to not be stop and frisk, but this young man was an athlete on the honor roll, got stop and frisked by his friends, cop pulls up on him, you know, shook him down, didn't find anything.
And that happened under Eric Adams.
And it's an example, and you know, that's traumatizing.
Right.
You know, here's a here's the kind of person that we want to feel like they can live in New York to be engaged.
We want that person to vote and feel like there's hope in the system.
And yet you your people are championing these policies which have been debunked.
And so I understand that if you live in communities where it's real, if you live, look, listen, you know, I've lived in Philadelphia for a long time.
I was born in Harlem.
I understand what it means to see the intra community harm.
But you got to talk to, you got to really talk to the whole community and get the full diversity of opinion.
You know, at Sutter Ave, at these protests, I talked to, you know, the people there were like, we don't want the police in our neighborhood because you come here and targeted us.
