She isn't even Mayor yet and she's acting like she's the big Macha (who will never shut up)

Responding to claims she's too close to Mayor Bloomberg and the NYPD, Quinn said Wednesday, “My office, myself and the City Council — we are the only ones who have actually gotten reform of stop, question and frisk.”

City Council Speaker Christine Quinn is taking credit for reducing the number of NYPD stop and frisks last year — a bit of campaign chest-thumping that raised eyebrows among critics of the tactic.
“Let’s be clear,” Quinn said Wednesday in response to charges from a campaign opponent who accused of her being too cozy with the Mayor Bloomberg and the NYPD.
“My office, myself and the City Council — we are the only ones who have actually gotten reform of stop, question and frisk.”

The mayoral candidate was taking heat from Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, who trashed her as “Bloomberg light” for her relationship with the mayor and his support of the controversial stop-and-frisk police tactic.
Quinn responded that she held Council hearings on the tactic, which critics say unfairly targets minorities. She also pointed to a letter she wrote to Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly in February 2012 that urged the department to create a system to identify officers who were overusing the tactic.
The department adopted those changes a few months later, which led to a 22% drop in the number of people stopped and frisked last year.

But advocates who have been fighting the practice for more than a decade said Quinn was claiming credit for other people’s work.
“That’s a bit unrealistic,” said Baher Azmy, legal director of the Center Constitutional Rights, which has been suing to end the practice.
“Whatever changes that will happen to stop and frisk are a function of 13 years of litigation and 13 years of community mobilization and not a magic wand from the City Council.”

Councilwoman Melissa Mark-Viverito (D-Manhattan), a longtime stop-and-frisk critic, said community protests were the driving force behind changes.
“I think a comment like [Quinn’s] reduces the level of engagement from the grass roots,” she said.
Quinn’s camp insisted that the speaker wasn’t implying that community groups had not contributed. She was just responding to attacks on her record.
“We believe everyone's work on this helped,” said spokesman Jamie McShane.
Paul Browne — a spokesman for Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, whom Quinn has vowed to keep on as commissioner if she’s elected — also buttressed Quinn’s claim.
“The changes that she talked about today followed an exchange of ideas and correspondence between the police commissioner and the speaker,” Browne said.

I dislike this just as bad as the next but that's a bit harsh to wish a woman to be raped

Who said I want a woman to be raped. Since when are the socialist lesbo-feminazis regarded as "women"?

Stop and Frisk is a good policy in my opinion. It is not racist as the opposition is claiming. The problem is that in many neighborhoods black on black crime is increasingly a problem. So if a black cop stops and frisks a black suspect, is that supposed to be racist? High crime areas usually tend to be areas of high low-income black rental units and I suspect that stop and frisk has saved many lives..

It's not appropriate. No one has to like her, but that is way over the top

But that's not over the top when a socialist lesbian scum like her comes out of a libtard cloud and dictates New Yorkers on what they should and should not do, right? Yes, maybe I was a bit harsh on her, but I'm not going to sit back in the slums on NY when the city itself becomes more and more socialist each day. We already have the first openly gay senator in the country who proposed, sponsored, and had a gay-marriage bill passed in New York state. And very soon this lesbian nazi will become a NYC mayor, a mayor of the major city in America? She isn't even a mayor yet, but what good has come out of her stinking filthy mouth? Opposing stop-and-frisk to give her shvartza friends an opportunity to do more weapon contraband and therefore committing more crime? Supporting Bloomberg's fascist tax programs? Raising the smoking age to 21 and taking away the rights of adults to smoke if they want (I hate smoking very badly, but it doesn't mean I should dictate to people. Tyranny like this never helps but only increases problems.)? Shoving her sexual orientation down out throats and using a "gay card" in order to succeed in becoming a mayor of the major city in the US? Supporting the abolish of term limits so that commie scum like her and Bloomberg would be able to run for the endless amount of terms?
Maybe, I should support her because of her attempt to ban St. Patrick's Day because it is "homophobic"?
