eye contactI just think it’s more reasonable to understand that police simply cannot prevent crime. They’re only responders
The only way to truly prevent crime is to tackle the root causes of it. This includes poverty, abuse, discrimination, neglect, and mental illness
Attacking these root causes will create far more positive change than any police officer can hope
Our police force is more well funded than every military in the world except China’s, yet we have a higher rate of violent crime and violent murder than almost all first world countries. It’s time to seek alternative solutions
These are systemic issues that will take a long time to fix/see the results of. In the meantime how about we ensure people aren’t being violently attacked commuting to their jobs since we have the resources to up the security of the subway stations. You could even reduce funding overall, allocate it towards addressing those issues while at the same time increasing the presence within subway stations. Two things can be true at once.

The NYPD clearly failed at that, with 35,000 officers and $10bn spent in 2021

Dawg I am not sitting here saying the NYPD is currently doing everything right. This is how we’ve even ended up having this conversation. They should be heavily focusing on s*** that is actually an issue like the safety of public transportation.

SCOUSERNow im very pro gun control but the whole debate about guns miss the point to an extent
It doesn't explain why so many Americans get the urge to go on mass shooting rampages
Now guns are much more scarce in my country the UK and its true we got a lot of knife crime as a result.... But we don't have people going on mass stabbing sprees, which I feel like would happen in US if they somehow magic all the guns out of there. Guns make it a lot easier but that's the real sickness, the evil in the American people
Because they can and have access to guns far easier than anywhere else. It really is that simple.
In countries where social safety nets are worse than in the US you don't see them mass murdering people at the rates the US does. Only countries in Central America and the Caribbean compare.

America was built on colonial violence, committed genocide a few times, has been at war for 93% of its history, and has some of the highest firearm ownership rates and violent crime rates in the modern world. It even has the highest incarceration rate in the world.
It’s inherent
