you can't decry the racial profiling done by NYC and their stop and frisk program. But turn around and demand random searches of people homes with no probable cause. The sad thing you're not the first person here to propose such blatantly unconstitutional laws simply because you don't like people who guns. I find it no less disturbing than right wingers who think I should be stopped because of the color of my skin.
