Now, Pat. That would suggest that it's possible for rightwingers to be conditioned to respond in certain ways by media figures. And, we all know that just doesn't happen.

Right on!
Not so fast Bob.

A U.S. appeals court froze court-ordered reforms to the New York City Police Department's controversial stop-and-frisk program and removed the judge who found the police tactic unconstitutional because she "ran afoul" of the judicial code of conduct.

The judge was obviously biased.

Btw drug laws aren't racist.

Stop and Frisk in NYC has a few more days, if the polls
are right. The dem mayoral candidate has an overwhelming lead 65% to 25% and he has vowed to repeal the practice.

He is going to kick out the present commissioner.

Stop and Frisk has become a quota system for the police.

Here's a simple litmus test Jim. Would you be OK with this practice if they only singled out people like you and your family?
