Interestingly enough, when looking at those graphs again it is hard to even argue correlation. Crimes were on the decline well before the implementation of stop-and-frisk. You'd have a better argument for correlation between the drop in violent crimes and the federal assault weapons ban.

Yes, people have individual faces.  A person in law enforcement is trained to recognize faces.  Everyone who's ever been arrested has a "mugshot".  More specifically, Police that work the same beat know who's who in that neighborhood.  So yes, absolutely felons can be recognized on sight.
