In an continuing apparent bid to prove to the United States (and the world) that he does not care about anyone’s rights, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, stopping by an African-American church today, had this to say about crime and the tactics we should used to fight it:
“I would do stop-and-frisk. I think you have to…I see what’s going on here, I see what’s going on in Chicago, I think stop-and-frisk. In New York City it was so incredible, the way it worked.”
Yes, the Donald promises that, if elected, he will take a controversial, unconstitutional practice that has targeted minority communities nationwide. He will have law enforcement stop and frisk everyone that they find “suspicious”. Mind you, this reality TV star is stating his support of this policy in an African-American church of all places.
Given the combination of his statements over the past several days, in which he called for profiling and complained about the treatment of suspects in custody, along with his statements today, a clear picture is forming of the Donald. An ugly picture of someone running for president, who obviously will not preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.
