How in the hell do you know??? Where is your source for that dumb ass comment???
Now for the FACTS for idiots like you!!!
Trump is correct that the murder rate has plummeted in New York City in the last two decades.
But the same could be said for many other large American cities during the same period, and there's no way to credit stop-and-frisk for the decline.
Stop-and-frisk was a popular tactic for much of the last 15 years in New York City. But even as it's fallen out of favor under the administration of Mayor de Blasio, the murder rate remains a long way off from where it was in the 1990s, when it topped 2,000 a year. City police department statistics show there were 352 murders and non-negligent homicides in 2015, compared with 673 in 2000 and 539 in 2005.
The NYPD weighed in on stop-and-frisk during the debate and said stops are down 97 percent since 2011. As stops declined, so did crime, which disputes Trump's claim.

So you idiots and stupid people like the above just seem to forget a very very fundamental FACT!
Let's use a simple analogy....
Assume bad guys on the streets carry guns because no one is stopping them and frisking.
Assume you are walking down the street and see these same bad guys carrying guns.
Do you continue to walk down the street? Or do you cross over to the other side?
What happened to conservatives' love of open carry?
Not a problem THEN!
If I a legal law abiding citizen could have a gun in NYC I'd be able to confidently walk down the same street!
Good point!
Do the police know you're law abiding. What if the police stop and frisk every armed citizen in an open carry city?
so what if you are law abiding you move on
if your a criminal you move on to the big house
lol, really? So you think the NRA and the gun rights nuts would have no objection to gun carriers being accosted by the police every time they're seen armed?
Of course not you idiot! It is BECAUSE we have the right to carry the bad guys ALSO know it!
Hence the crimes would decrease, HENCE the cops knowing that the bad guys also know that the GOOD guys are carrying don't NEED to stop and frisk as much.
Crime declines when people are able to defend themselves.
Only idiots don't see the direct correlation. If crime is going up it's because cops can't stop and frisk.
If bad guys know that I maybe carrying then their opportunities decline...hence crime declines.
It is a direct correlation that common sense points out. Which is what is lacking in people like you! Common sense. Decency. Law abiding. RESPECT!
None of which you've displayed!
