Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

Bull****.

They are playing union work slowdown games, and it is childish and wrong, no matter the reason.
Why?

Because the mayor and a bunch of race baiting assholes have put their lives at risk.

Brooklyn is being over run with the same. and yes, I made a distinction between "outer bouroughs" and the "burbs".


I grew up in loisiada.

Sorry I misunderstood ya
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

if you dont want to work..get another job I am sure someone will take your place ..they need the money....lol...as far as tickets go hmmmmm I like that.... in fact all the citizens cant mind that happening...a lot of people go to work everyday and don't like everything about their job... no one has privileges on their job the way they want it
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

Completely unacceptable and pretty weak in general.

Just do your damn job.
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

I support them 100%. If I was NYPD I'd sit and drink coffee all day knowing that the second I get called a racist or a murderer I'm going to lose my job or be harassed for years.



Take the check and find a warm seat at a good coffee shop NYPD! :)

No escape there, we had 4 blown away at once in one here.

The mayor played politics with their lives. Not surprised, it will probably hit the city hall where it hurts-in the pocketbook.
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

Yes, I'm sure that NYC having a bad reputation matters far more than any actual statistical information, which clearly shows that national and NYC crime rates moved in tandem....



Then why are you making the claim?

Either you have the data to back up what you're saying, or you don't. And no, it shouldn't be hard to nail down these stats, at least not in medium-sized cities. Many use CompStat or similar systems, many who do publish the data.



Actually, what happens in NYC is that people get stopped for minor violations, it escalates, and the police nail them for resisting arrest. (There are also indications that cops lie, sometimes brazenly, about the alleged resistance.) I'm certainly not aware of any indications that violent felons routinely get popped for small infractions in NYC, hence my expressions of skepticism and request for actual evidence for said claims.

And to reiterate my point above: NYC definitely uses CompStat, and publishes the data. If they are nabbing violent felons who have open warrants during stops for minor violations, there should be no question that will show up in the data. They certainly weren't catching violent felons with active warrants with stop & frisk.

What the....?

Are you really telling me it is acceptable for police to presume that someone is guilty of a crime, not because of anything they're doing, but merely because they live in a specific neighborhood? Or because a police officer decided to search them?

What country do YOU live in? 'Cause last I checked, the US still held that you're innocent until proven guilty.

Well first I wasn't talking about stop and frisk, no one was until you injected it into the conversation. What we were talking about were traffic stops and stops for minor local ordinances.

Yes, I know the stop and frisk idea was a total bust. Hell, they tried it in Portland too for a while. I never said stop and frisk was a good idea. Again, wasn't what we were discussing in the first place.

And if you think NYC has the stats for number of warrant arrests deriving from traffic or minor violation stops, show them. Prove me wrong. I know this for certain, the DUI checkpoint stats I've seen in the past render almost as many outstanding warrant arrests as DUI arrests.

Police want to declare war? Start handing out pink slips, I say.

Whooops!!! Another conservative admitting that many of these cops are glorified tax collectors.

Thats one function of law enforcement, brought on by lefties who like to shake down the people for cash. Im from Cali, I can tell you all about it.

Because the mayor and a bunch of race baiting assholes have put their lives at risk.
So their lives weren't at risk before? Then why are these cops constantly complaining about how their lives are in danger when that hasn't been the case until last week?
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

I think you're right. I see more and more black folks speaking out about the problems they face created by their own race. But not enough.

Their people would call them "Uncle Tom's" for stepping up and taking responsibility. It's easier to just blame Whitey.

Yeesh.
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

Personally if I was the Mayor I'd apologize to the police and the people and then get representatives from both groups together to hash things out.

If that had happened, it should still make no difference.

They have been patting themselves on the back since 9/11, and now it is OK for them to run away?

Don't think so - if they are that weak, scared and petty, then they are not needed.

Where, pray tell, did the mayor sanction the killing of cops?

Sounds sensible to me. Except that I'd add the de Blasio should do some ride-alongs, and I don't mean just a few for show. Call it "community service" or "penance," but then the Mayor could bring his own more informed opinion to those discussions.

They arent running away. Hell...they are giving everyone a Christmas present.

Face it. If they arrested less you would bitch. If they arrested more, you would bitch. If they arrest the same, you would bitch. At the end of the day...

Well they are supposed to have some authority. Not abuse it but still have it.

And it sounds like their city officials are undermining that authority. The city officials arent out there risking their lives.
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

Fire them all.


If there was no NYPD, I might feel like it was safe to visit NYC.




(You have to think about this one for a minute, and you have to know me a little, before you have any hope of getting it. LAMO)

Bull**** - they are running away from their job duties.

Spare me your comments - you have no idea what I think.

Your logic here is quite childish.

It's their job, as they have bragged since 9/11.

What you and others 'think' (used loosely) is quite obvious. You have a hard on for cops.
 
Re: The NYPD has essentially stopped writing traffic and parking tickets. Arrests for

I doubt that Stand and Glare will be that much more ineffective than Stop and Frisk, so let them eat doughnuts, well the union ones. Any non-union ones should be terminated immediately--damn freeloading conservatives.

what a silly rant about non-union employees. back to the topic-this sort of stuff happens all over the USA. after race riots in Cincinnati when a white cop shot an unarmed black scofflaw who ran from the cop and then got shot when he grabbed his pants that had fallen to knee level after the cop cornered him, CPD stopped patrolling high crime black areas. this resulted in over 100 black on black murders in the ensuing period of non-enforcement
