If there was going to be a fan of stop and frisk on this forum it would very likely be an idiot who pretends to be from Australia.
Forum management know where I'm from...they're computer experts.
You can't get emails ending in .com.au if you're not from the land of the kangaroos.
Cops only have approval to stop, wand, then act if a knife is found....in certain areas...like around shopping centres, pubs, clubs etc.
Bishop stabbed in his church, kung fu master stabbed lover, her young son, and her ex husband to death, man stabbed in the back in Perth WA by a radicalised teen last week, a woman was stabbed outside a gym the other day...and the horror of the Westfield mall stabbing murders.
Too much stabbing, the People are screaming out for protection, so the govt acted, passed new laws, can't now buy a knife until age 18...and stop and wand.
