Arrests in NYC plummet as police refuse to work following murder of NYPD cops

[Cabbage Patch]

How are these butt-hurt cops even doing this in the first place?

Is NYPD still on the mob payroll, or was that truly busted up back in the 80s?

 

[tru_m.a.c]

just got back in the crib after a night of drinking…crazy drinking…

walked up on some cops drunk out my mind, but they were parked in their car and they knew our group was heading into this bar…one black cop and the driver was spanish or something else….either way it was crazy being back on my nyc shyt tonight

for the fsu and bama game I forgot I could get arrested, then when I left the bar my nikka sense kicked in automatically….stay safe for the weekend brehs

@MustafaSTL @ogc163 @SuperCoolP_Cal this is whhy people are terrified of lawyers. @Ill what positions of powers, most lawyers are making 50k a year or less while paying off 100k student loans. That is like half the reason law school attendance rates are declining.

No reason law school should even cost that much. It's just books and a classroom

When New York City Police Walk Off the Job

• New York Post on Tuesday reported, and city officials confirmed, that officers are essentially abandoning enforcement of low-level offenses. According to data The Post cited for the week starting Dec. 22 — two days after two officers were shot and killed on a Brooklyn street — traffic citations had fallen by 94 percent over the same period last year, summonses for offenses like public drinking and urination were down 94 percent, parking violations were down 92 percent, and drug arrests by the Organized Crime Control Bureau were down 84 percent.
  
  The data cover only a week, and the reasons for the plunge are not entirely clear. But it is so steep and sudden as to suggest a dangerous, deplorable escalation of the police confrontation with the de Blasio administration. Even considering the heightened tensions surrounding the officers’ deaths and pending labor negotiations — the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association has no contract, and its leader, Patrick Lynch, has been the most strident in attacking Mr. de Blasio, calling him a bloody accomplice to the officers’ murder — this action is repugnant and inexcusable. It amounts to a public act of extortion by the police.
  
  And for what?
  
  Let’s review the actions that Mr. de Blasio’s harshest critics say have driven the police to such extremes.
  
  1. He campaigned on ending the unconstitutional use of “stop-and-frisk” tactics, which victimized hundreds of thousands of innocent young black and Latino men.
  
  2. He called for creating an inspector general for the department and ending racial profiling.
  
  3. After Eric Garner, an unarmed black man, was killed by a swarm of cops on Staten Island, he convened a meeting with the police commissioner, William Bratton, and the Rev. Al Sharpton, giving Mr. Sharpton greater prominence than police defenders thought he should have had because Mr. Sharpton is a firebrand with an unsavory past.
  
  4. He said after the Garner killing that he had told his biracial son, Dante, to “take special care” in encounters with the police.
  
  5. He generally condoned the peaceful protests for police reform — while condemning those who incited or committed violence — and cited a tagline of the movement: “Black lives matter.”
  
  The list of grievances adds up to very little, unless you look at it through the magnifying lens of resentment fomented by union bosses and right-wing commentators. The falling murder rate, the increased resources for the department, the end of quota-based policing, which the police union despised, the mayor’s commitment to “broken-windows” policing — none of that matters, because many cops have latched on to the narrative that they are hated, with the mayor orchestrating the hate.

  It’s a false narrative. Mr. de Blasio was elected by a wide margin on a promise to reform the policing excesses that were found unconstitutional by a federal court. He hired a proven reformer, Mr. Bratton, who had achieved with the Los Angeles Police Department what needs doing in New York. The furor that has gripped the city since the Garner killing has been a complicated mess. But what New Yorkers expect of the Police Department is simple:
  
  1. Don’t violate the Constitution.
  
  2. Don’t kill unarmed people.
  
  To that we can add:
  
  3. Do your jobs. The police are sworn public servants, and refusing to work violates their oath to serve and protect. Mr. Bratton should hold his commanders and supervisors responsible, and turn this insubordination around.
  
  Mr. de Blasio has a responsibility to lead the city out of this impasse, and to his credit has avoided inflaming the situation with hasty or hostile words. But it’s the Police Department that needs to police itself. Rank-and-file officers deserve a department they can be proud of, not the insular, defiant, toxically politicized constituency that Mr. Lynch seems to want to lead.

Report: Cop Turned Himself In For Allegedly Attacking MTA Worker At Subway Station

Yesterday, the NYPD asked for the public's help in identifying the man who allegedly attacked an on-duty subway conductor at the East Tremont Avenue station in the Bronx. Now, WCBS 2 is reportingthat a police officer recognized himself from the surveillance video and subsequently turned himself in.

According to to police, at 2:30 a.m. on December 23, a 28-year-old female MTA employee, who was on duty and in her full uniform, was "approached by a male on the southbound platform of the D Train at the East Tremont Train Station. The male grabbed the MTA employee in a bear hug from behind and pushed her to the platform floor, and then began to choke her."


The conductor had been on the platform to let passengers know about service changes. The Post's source said, "He was livid about the service and took it out on the conductor." The MTA workers' union, TWU Local 100, says that another conductor pulled the attacker off the victim. The injured conductor was treated for head, neck and back injuries at a hospital.

WCBS 2 reports, "The officer"—who was off-duty during the incident—"told investigators the woman cursed at him after he asked her a question, and grabbed his phone to prevent him from taking her picture, police alleged."

No one has been charged. Yet.

Their unions are the bomb. I never knew how good cops had it in terms of Pay/long term benefits until I actually looked into it

Not to mention all the extra income from street taxes and shakedowns

 

[MewTwo]

The bad news is that this is only temporary. Once the riff between the mayor and the NYPD is resolved everything will go back to normal and cops will be harassing black people again.

Most young people in NYPD see $$ before they see protect and serve. I saw a cop on 25, she was 105 lbs about 22 years old, playing on her phone, holding the corner at 12pm. She ain't about that life she was a glorified traffic cop.

NY is going recreational in the next 6 years so those pot busts will be history soon enough.
