I don't like anecdotes like this because they back the assertion Stop and Frisk does societal good.
It implies that police are able to discern the difference between "good people" and "bad people", and that "stopping the bad ones" doesn't harm society at large because "the good ones" don't get stopped.
This is hurtful to those who have experienced it first hand, and to those who are seeking equality of all people under the law.
