Mike Bloomberg’s feeding African American voters an image of a pugnacious businessman willing to do anything to take out Trump. New tapes remind us he was just as dogged about stopping and frisking black folks

That was just a taste of the wrong in Bloomberg’s Aspen rant. His solution to this problem that he misunderstood was to “put a lot of cops in the street, put those cops where the crime is, which means in minority neighborhoods. So this is one of the unintended consequences is people saying, ‘Oh my God, you are arresting kids for marijuana, they’re all minorities.’ Yes, that’s true. Why? Because we put all the cops in the minority neighborhoods. Yes that’s true.

Yes, that’s an appropriate descriptor. Even if it doesn’t matter to you that the practice of “stop-and-frisk” was racist, the practice was ineffective.found that only 14 of every 10,000 stops produced a gun and only 1,200 of those 10,000 were offenses that resulted in fines. However, we live in a “tough on crime” political world, where men like Bloomberg have to appear like they’re doing something to solve the problem — even if they haven’t the first clue what they’re doing.

“President Trump’s deleted tweet is the latest example of his endless efforts to divide Americans,” Bloomberg said through his campaign. “Ithe police practice of stop-and-frisk, and as part of our effort to stop gun violence it was. By the time I left office, I cut it back by 95%, but I should’ve done it faster and sooner. I regret that and I have apologized — and I have taken responsibility for taking too long to understand the impact it had on Black and Latino communities.

This sticker inked by Bloomie shows how phony Mike is

akeleven Shut up it’s all BS invite me for an interview and I’ll explain like no other has to date.

People4Bernie We think that billionaires have this super human power to change our lives. They don’t. Just look at Trump. He’s a con man not a super hero.

JamilSmith Bloomberg also strong armed NY into a third term and continue stop and frisk.

JamilSmith The bible says you ask to be forgiven and it's already done - now he needs to repair

Rolling Stone is really gunning for Bloomberg. Focus on the real threat and enemy and vote blue regardless. Posts like this just help trump and his base

JamilSmith I refuse to vote for Bloomberg. My vote will never be cast for a man that sees my 3 sons as criminals.

Mike Bloomberg has not apologized to the 700,000+ 14-25 young black men that were frisked for no reason.

JamilSmith Yeah but he's still better than Trump.

As well he shoulda been. Saved lotsa lives. BlackLivesMatter

Yeah, thanks for the daily reminder. But if Bloomberg is the democratic nominee, I'm voting for him!

Stop the frigging ‘purity testing’ for Democrats. He can beat Trump. If anyone wants that, they should support him. 2020 is not a policy-based election. It’s an Apprentice firing episode. Don’t over complicate things RS

StPetersShadow Good for you! One of the few outlets that has the guts to not treat this guy with kid gloves. RollingStone = 10xThe(Toilet)PaperofRecord!

CPaRhon Just shut up. Listen. Donald Trump is stopping and frisking our normal life and freedoms on a daily basis. Shut up about Bloomberg. I'm an African American woman. If Biden or Bloomberg is the nominee, I'm voting.

. Yeah NYC was a safe place ty Michael 🙏🏻🇺🇸 independent

People4Bernie Bloomberg and Trump are two of a kind. If you're serious about beating The Mango Mussolini and restoring America, vote for Bernie Sanders. BernieBeatsTrump

Could have summed this up in less words: Mike B. gets a pass

Bloomberg has as much charisma as a mime does on radio.

For Gods sake, here we go again with Democrats eating their own. Nobody is worse than Trump! Full stop!
