I said BullShityes, I know they are violationsbut they are BullShit violationswhich in the end, have lead us hereso if the BullShit violations ceaseand NYers go on with life as normaldoesn't that beg the questionwhat the fuck is the point of having the same number of officers in uniform?you are familiar with the Garner and Gurley murders, yes?if the police force is reducedmaybe a citizen doesn't get strangled to death for 'allegedly' selling untaxed cigaretesand maybe a citizen doesn't get murdered for walking down the hallwayetc...can you see it?most reports I've read have violent crime at an all time lowso if we are employing officers just to write tickets, for speeding, pissing, etc...is that really where you want your tax dollars spentfor quotasin targeted neighborhoods (you think this shit would fly if they enforced the same BullShit violations on the Upper East Side?)not to mention, those interactionsare leading to an epidemic of violent crime by policeyou really seem to be making a circular argument, IMOas are the NYPD I would guess that a report like this is the intention of the NYPD to instill fear in the citizens of NYOMG, the cops aren't arresting anybody anymore (yes, I know you still think they are doing their job clandestinely)ANARCHY!!!I just don't think it will have the intended effectand will end up backfiring on the NYPD
