If liberals believe in gun control, why are they against one of the best forms of gun control out there? It's called Stop and Frisk and has resulted in getting more illegal guns off the streets than anything else. Anyone?

“Liberals” believe in gun control much the same way you do. They probably just disagree at the amount of control. I doubt you think children should have access to a bazooka. If you do, is that “liberal” gun control? As for stop and frisk, the disagreement is based on the fourth amendment. You know, two amendments away from the one you choose to be sacrosanct. Anyway, we’re not even close to having a discussion on these issues because it’s all so political right now.

I think, like everything else, the contradictions are present on every side of these political debates. The same question could be asked, why conservatives are so committed to pro-life positions (anti-abortion) and at the same time so committed to no gun control. That's a pretty heavy contradiction too right?

Political divide right now in this country. Nothing is going to get solved.

I understand why liberals are wary of a policy like Stop and Frisk, which can lead to profiling and civil rights issues. I personally know people who have had their civil rights violated by aggressive stop and frisk practices. However, I think we can all agree that getting more illegal guns off the streets is a priority and a policy like Stop and Frisk could help do that if done in a thoughtful, constitutional way.

Approaching 21 years... and reading some of the questions asked here has me less confident cops understand what freedom means. The stop and frisk debate goes back much further than current times and has been abused since its inception. Cops today are paying for deeds done in the past.... yet still comtinue with making dumb decisions. The shady cops ruin it for all cops.

Someone on LinkedIn expressed disappointment about the lack of diversity from the big law firms in TX that were posting pics of their summer associates. A managing partner commented that he thought the post might be about a pic he posted (12/14 SAs were white). He tried to defend this by saying that they had LGBT and socioeconomic diversity. The fact that he recognized that his pic might be part of the problem says it all. Law firms need to do better. Sorry, I just wanted to rant.
