I would agree that police not doing their jobs is a problem but that is not one conservatives want to address by doing the obvious, busting the police unions.
One of, if not THE only labor union that conservatives don't want to dismantle and destroy. Trade unions or general government employee unions otherwise need to DIAF according to them.

I'm not sure that GizmoJ has much concept of things going on outside of his room.
He's naive and goofy, but mostly harmless. At least to others outside his room, heh.

Crime rates are only true when going up and lies when going down is the conservative mantra.
As @fskimospy pointed out, they skew the data according to who is in office at the time. Kinda like Donny TwoScoops varying the value of his properties depending on whether he's paying taxes or applying for loans.

Even statistical facts and data cannot be delivered straight forward and without manipulation from the clowns.

Police chiefs like Ray Kelly, George Grasso, Bill Bratton say stop and frisk save minority lives and they don't even know it, opponents say it is akin to racial profiling. I personally think stop and frisk is wrong.

How would you solve this issue if you were a police commissioner?
Fire the police who do it, unless it's GettyRoad. Those cops get a bonus.

I thought that was because petty crime isn't prosecuted anymore? Car break in's, shop lifting, things along those lines. Why would the average person even report a crime if they know nothing will be done about it?
Back when I had my annual truck robbery the only reason I reported it was for the insurance company. The police wouldn't respond, they just had a website where I filled out a form, a cop would sign it and send it back to me.

It's a little surprising to me that we've so easily accepted theft as a normal part of life, and that thieves shouldn't be punished. I don't think that system going to net an improvement in the average persons life.
Fuck you

How is this. Nothing that I know of would make me change my mind. Just as you are stuck on your opinion.
I am not stuck on my opinion. I’m open to evidence. It’s remarkable that you said no amount of contrary evidence will change your mind.

Do what you want, but surely you see how irrational that is.

You did. You said nothing would change your mind - that’s irrational.

No one is manipulating you, you’re just saying insane things.

What's insane is that pcgeek and greenman have been called out for what they are for ages now, but your dumbass still tries to talk to them like they have any bit of integrity with facts and reality left.

Frankly, it's pathetic. You will always be a deadweight to solving any problem if you have literally zero understanding of the enemy. This is why you are useless.

I didn't. Nice try at manipulation...

I said okay to acknowledge your post.
Do you need me to quote you saying nothing would make you reconsider your position?

Anyone who says that is either insane or stupid.
