Reply to comment by Hugegodamnrat in Surveillance city: The New York City Police Department can use more than 15,000 cameras to track people using facial recognition in Manhattan, Bronx and Brooklyn by glawgii
Let me guess, you also think there's a migrant caravan at the border that magically wasn't there when trump was in office?

After everything you saw from police departments in 2020, do you really think it's that infeasible that they're being more careless about recording proper crime numbers?

Wouldn't they want to over count to justify their jobs?

If there was even a sign that they would get proper oversight, maybe. And the average cop is not going to suddenly be on their best behavior. They're just going to be lazier, because you can't get in trouble if you don't get involved.

That’s not what I believe at all. Hell no. I hope nobody thinks I’m a trumpie. I’m just very skeptical of crime statistics because what I see around me is the absolute opposite and it’s rising, but granted, I live in a historically pretty bad area.
And I do think that some people (probably a increasing number) just don’t report things that happened to them (especially sex crimes)
But either way if it’s going up or down we can still agree that whatever this is, it’s bullshit.
