Reply to comment by franticredditperson in NYC’s new subway crime crackdown is underway but NYers are not convinced it will work by PichuLovy

How about you be the change we need and join the NYPD, they are hiring. If all of the “policing experts” from Reddit joined the NYPD we would have a perfect police department!

Or they just hired better people and held them to a higher standard?

It might surprise you, but people aren’t exactly lining up to be a cop these days.

36K people isn't a lot of people to you?

Do you know what the normal amount of quits and retirements in a year is? This chart only has "quits", which makes it seem much larger.

It's 2000 total usually. So this year is looking like it'll be 3000-4000 with the extra quits. 11% turnover instead of 6%. That's nothing.

Anyone who thinks these are the "best and brightest" leaving is stupid. Anyone who leaves before their pension without a good reason is also stupid. Good riddance to the bottom 11%.

Also, the people that are joining are largely PoC, no one talks about how we have probably the most diverse police dept on the country. Gotta love white elitist that scream that PoC police officers are somehow “racist”.

Now they are, and they're diverse? Make up your mind man.

If I'd imagine what someone who knows what the bottom of a boot tastes like was thinking, it sounds just like your comment.

2/10 unoriginal line. Obviously you don't have any original thoughts of your own.

If you don't like crime, why don't you become a criminal yourself and show all these bad criminals how to be good criminals?

See how stupid you sound? Smartest bootlicker one can possibly find in the wild right here

Yup and we have a fuck load of cops always around, yet still a higher violent crime rate than NYC. I see more cops than ever but crime rates haven't changed

Also I'm from the NYC metro
