#3 The cops obey their political masters, as we've seen in Portland, Charlottesville, Chicago, etc.

You'll pardon me if I shed no tears for them.

And if stand down orders are harming the community, well, the community voted for the people giving those orders, didn't they?

ZFG, Fun City.

#6 Hey to all "NYPD Blue" fans - can you imagine the reaction from Sipowicz to this bs?

#7 Andy would engage the youthful miscreants in dialog and explain that their behavior was both impolite and not conducive to good social order. He would express his disinterest in repeating this conversation. It would also hurt.

#8 Thanks to two decades of aggressive policing, Compatat, and application of 'broken windows' theories, NYC actually became a safe and orderly place to live and work.

Under Giuliani and Bloomberg, the murder rate fell nearly 90 percent.

Violent crime also fell. The squeegee men and other shakedown artists, street pervs and nuts disappeared.

ALL of the current mess - 100% of it - is attributable to the incompetent left-wing clown who currently occupies Gracie Mansion - that is, when he's not running for president as clown-candidate #37.

#9 ALL of the current mess - 100% of it - is attributable to the incompetent left-wing clown who currently occupies Gracie Mansion - that is, when he's not running for president as clown-candidate #37.

And the people who voted for him.
