    Absolutely mind boggling levels of stupidity itt today lol. Idk how people think the subway would be safer without any police there. They’ve never taken the train before if this is the case

    It’s actually insane.

    I’m trying to wrap my head around their reason but like I can’t imagine there being a terrorist attack on a major subway and thinking “things would have been safer if there were less cops” like ??? The hell do y’all be saying

    that isn't prevention bruh

    prevention means it doesn't happen, not it happens but is cut short.

    and u rlly think we can just train an army of super soldiers who have millisecond reaction time, then give them permission to shoot anyone they feel like, and then expect them to make the right call every single time? and u think this is both easier and safer than just taking care of folks better?

    the fact they all eurostepped around your original question is definitely proof these niggas don't know what they talking about

    really?

    so your idea is to forget about prevention and focus all resources on minimizing damage after the fact?

    Which is a faster fix? We need to do something to address the immediate problem before addressing the root causes of the problem

    So you just want to focus on fixing institutional issues which will take decades while doing nothing about what’s happening rn as a result of those institutions?

    Do both. They have the resources

    Ooo

    Was that not also heavily due to more stricter policies against crimes rather than more police?

    It's a mixture of both. Not that correlation is causation, but:

    It was definitely the stricter policies rather than the funding that really deflated crime, but those stricter policies were still being carried out by someone - like I said earlier in the thread, police in NYPD basically can't do too much now, so yeah they are essentially completely useless and do genuinely make things worse because they've been almost regulated out of their original position in the city

    You keep saying this while it's people ITT that are from the city that are telling you that you are making 'big brain' meme tier takes.

    No but I think shooting bad people with guns should be something police do

    Still going back to your original point of what causes shootings. IDK

    Are you saying we should just sit around until a solution comes? Like obviously this problem is a cognitive one, and won’t be fixed overnight. In the meantime, up the police presence so people can’t get away with s*** like this. There’s absolutely ZERO reason why someone is able to shoot 3 people on a NYC subway and get away with it.

    "up the police presence so people can’t get away with s*** like this."

    so when there's records of police brutality towards minorities start happening in the subway then what you gonna do?

    It’s not even a “you’re not from here so you’re NOT allowed to talk about our city because we’re better than you”

    It’s just 1.) New York in TV/movies is way diff than the actual New York, 2.) this is such a unique city, there’s nothing even comparable in the rest of the US. So unless you’ve lived here, it’s REALLY hard to understand a lot of the issues that we deal with
