Obama’s favorite mayor and police commissioner
The New York City Police Department made 4.4 million stops between January 2004 and June 2012. Over 80% of these 4.4 million stops were of blacks or Hispanics.
Mayor Bloomberg: police “‘disproportionately stop whites too much and minorities too little’”
Police Commissioner Kelley: “‘really, African-Americans are being under-stopped”
[From Federal Judge Shira Scheindlin’s decision ruling “stop-and-frisk” unconstitutional]
