or was never fooled by Giuliani is because of the "stop and frisk" which is also "unconstitutional policing." Terry stops are legal in limited circumstances though I think the Supreme Court expanded what is legal when it comes to Terry stops but the way it was expanded under Giuliani and Bloomberg as well as Eric Adams bringing it back was ineffective at best as over 90% of the people stopped and frisked had nothing on them. Unconstitutional at worst.
