>“This sort of crowdsourced surveillance will only lead to more wrongful arrests, racial profiling and police violence,” Albert Fox Cahn, the organization’s executive director

Albert Fox Cahn made that claim without providing any evidence to support it. Why is Hurubie Meko from the NYT printing such things?

Is there any editor worth the salt working in the NYT these days?

​

>“The NYPD has never been a good neighbor to most New Yorkers, and this move will only put more people at risk,”

Albert Fox Cahn is just the typical propagandist who shares responsibility for spreading and amplifying harmful distrust in the NYPD. The NYT should not be giving air to such narratives that disproportionately harm the most vulnerable segments of our population.

I passed out candy on Halloween in bk this year. I saw not one, not two, but three little kids that belonged to black/brown parents dressed as cops. One was specifically NYPD. But yeah they're just cowering in fear every day and hate NYPD /s

The vast majority of working class PoC don’t hate the police as much as the media likes to portray. If that was the case low income PoC wouldn’t have overwhelmingly voted for Eric Adams (a cop) in the Democratic primary for Mayor.

why find out trust in police polling and similar research when you can make up a fact nobody can verify to prove your feelings are factual. the deep thoughts of right wingers who troll the internet in groups every hour of the day.
