Trump on Chicago: ‘Stop and Frisk Works and It Was Meant for Problems Like Chicago’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: “I’ve told them to work with local authorities to try to change the terrible deal the city of Chicago entered into with ACLU, which ties law enforcement's hands, and to strongly consider stop and frisk. It works and it was meant for problems like Chicago. It was meant for it. Stop and frisk. And Rudy Giuliani, when he was mayor of New York City, he had a very strong program of stop and frisk, and it went from an unacceptably dangerous city to one of the safest cities in the country and I think the safest big city in the country. So it works. It has got to be properly applied, but stop and frisk works. The crime spree is a terrible blight on that city and we will do everything possible to get it done. I know the law enforcement people in Chicago and I know how good they are. They could solve the problem if they were simply allowed to do their job and do their job properly, and that is what they want to do. So, Chicago, we will start working with you as of today.”
