GOP senator says more racist policing is the solution to gun violence

John Kennedy thinks America needs more 'stop-and-frisk' policies.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) suggested on Wednesday that the solutions to gun violence are keeping the police system as it is and adopting policies to "stop and frisk" more citizens.

During an appearance on Fox News, Kennedy was asked about what's being done about gun violence in large American cities. He proposed three solutions.

"Number one, don't defund the police. Number two, I love social workers, but don't send a social worker to do a cop's job," Kennedy urged. Number three, he said, is to ask former mayors Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg about "how they got control of the violence in New York City.

"They will tell you they implemented stop, question, and frisk. They used it, as it should be used, in a racially neutral manner. It's perfectly constitutional," Kennedy said.

4. He's such a sack of crap

There's literally nothing "racially neutral" about stop and frisk.

Guess I shouldn't expect too much though from the same ass that said we should build fallout shelters if Biden wins and suggested anyone opposed to full school reopening was either weak or political operatives.

5. Kennedy invited those who are unsure about opening schools just yet,...

... to come kiss his ass.

The safety of the children and the out of control pandemic spread seem not to be an issue or consideration to think about or concern his mind with.
