They still get used tho

I’m referring to ford and Chevy and Dodge. Most NYC cop cars are either Tahoe/Suburbans or Impalas or Tauruses or Explorers or Durangos or Chargers. I’ve seen the odd Rav4 but they’re rare.

shh you’re gonna deflate his ego

Probably the best offering of electric from American companies that aren’t Tesla. Police vehicles tend to have this hang up that they have to be American made.

Basically. The city is saying these millions are worth not even fighting the cases. It’s a lose lose. Settle and people complain about the payout. Fight the case and win, people complain because the cost of trial is actually more than the settlement. There’s no way to get that money back and the city is too spineless to dismiss bullshit cases.

Murder is illegal but people are still murdered.

Are you literally 10?

Nah. He’ll get counseling and a fine.

He says, with his freedom of speech and all of his organs in place

Because people cry about solitary confinement or CO’s using force. The CO’s can absolutely take control, but they’re not allowed to by policy.

When you bunch of worthless violent shitheads with nothing to contribute to society and lock them in a hole, did you think they were going to become a beacon of the society that rejected them, or just continue their violent disgusting ways?

People who say that have never been in a political jail. Human rights are a suggestion over there

Thank God Rikers didn’t kill him extrajudiciously by forcing him to take illegal drugs

You realize the data is 1000s of anecdotes brought together to create meaningful measurements right? The “data” isn’t just arbitrary numbers. It’s still 100s of people getting shot and murdered and robbed and raped.

You’ve been alive your whole life and this is the best you can do?

That’s because of the drastic measures. If nothing was done and life continued I’d wager 100,000,000 Americans would have died. It got to a point where 3000 Americans were dying daily.

nah Trump's suits are custom fitted to look missized off the rack.

in the words of Dolly Parton, 'it costs a lot to look this cheap'

It’s part of their image. Trump looks like shit but he pays thousands of dollars to look like shit intentionally

Like it or not, strong justice is only possible with strong criminal defense. Even the worst criminal deserves a good lawyer.

The amount of time it would take to Uber eats avocado toast you could just make it yourself

And that’s why cops don’t bother with traffic laws. To actually enforce them means people will get hit by cars.

My brother doesn’t have a full college degree and was processing for FDNY. He rescinded his application after passing their physical tests. Scoring high on a test doesn’t require particularly high intelligence it just requires planning and time management

What a bunch of babies. “No one wants to be a firefighter” what? That’s one of the most desirable jobs in the city. $100,000 a year with no special training required to get hired and you get to be a literal hero. All the benefits cops get with none of the hate.

There’s no shortage of nurses. There’s a shortage of nurses’ paychecks and quality of work.

It’s simple. They were told in advance of the strike. They should have hired fly ins to cover during the strike

Just make it turn off 2 hours after sundown
