That they can readily do under the guise of probable cause = whatever they want it to be. For example, a White person in the Ghetto must be there to buy drugs or a Black person in a White Libbie enclave must be there to commit some nefarious act.

NYPD stopped and frisked 684,000 people in 2011, the vast majority of them were young black and hispanic males.
New York City stop-and-frisk program
Less than 6% were carrying weapons.
