SourceDuring a “Hannity” town hall set to air Thursday at 10 p.m., Trump encouraged the use of the controversial stop-and-frisk practice in high-crime areas such as Chicago, which Trump said was “worse than some war zones.” Though stop-and-frisk was ruled unconstitutional in Trump’s home state of New York in 2013, he cited his belief that if you “take the gun away, you don’t have anything to shoot with.”
“I think you have to,” Trump said. “We did it in New York, it worked incredibly well and you have to be proactive and, you know, you really help people sort of change their mind automatically, you understand.”
Is there any data to support this? I mean, this idea seems ridiculous to me but, anyway. Thoughts? Concerns?
