Here's a question for the #metoo generation;

Its not just teenage males who are involved in violent crime, and only stop and searching males would be profiling anyway. So... Are we OK with male police officers having the legal right to stop and "pat down" any teenage girl they want to in the street? Do we expect teenage girls to be OK with these intrusive searches "because it might save lives"?

I think a female officer would have to do that, much the same as at the airport, I have been patted down more times then I care to count, I could walk through naked and the alarms would go off
