When a young non-white male is stopped and searched at the whim of a police officer, his idea of personal space, privacy and self esteem are shattered, to say nothing of his Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment protections.

To be a police officer in New York requires so much more than just we, as a citizen, need to walk around.

You can't let yourself go too far into it.
