Subject To a "Stop and Frisk"? There's an App For That 201
lightbox32 writes "The New York Civil Liberties Union released a free smartphone application on Wednesday that allows people to record videos of and report police 'stop and frisk' activity, a practice widely denounced by civil rights groups as mostly targeting minorities and almost never resulting in arrests. The app was thoroughly criticized by the New York Police Department, which said that the tool might prove useful for criminals."

Actually, I'd suspect anyone wearing jeans, period. If you don't have enough money to be able to purchase a nice suit with some dress shoes, (maybe cufflinks, but not mandatory) then my suspicion is that you're likely to want to try to steal from me.
