Nobody sat down for 40 hours a week for 3 years listening to this guy’s phone calls. Someone made a report, it sat on someone else’s desk for a year, handed to someone who doesn’t speak Chinese and recoded phone calls for investigation, sent the calls to another person who couldn’t get to them until now and realized wait this is bullshit.
Court cases are extremely slow.

Why do you think it would be any different if DOT was doing it?

People cried against Broken Windows because cops were wasting their time on minor crimes instead of “real crimes”. Now minor shit is on the rise and people are crying that police don’t enforce broken windows. It’s a pendulum. Things will get worse before they get better.

If they showed up before someone gets shot they’d be called hyper aggressive for arresting people for crimes that were never committed.
And also; they routinely do show up “before” someone gets shot: the vast majority of their gun arrests are made without any shots fired on either side.

Those are executives and not representative of rank and file. There’s maybe less than 1000 cops making that income, and that’s only because they’re 6/7 tiers of supervision up. Your average street cop is looking at maybe 130 if he’s getting a shitton of overtime and

While you are correct that cops did make 25k a year starting (just over the poverty line as per their contract so they couldn’t qualify for government aid) those same cops had their contract raised to 45k starting and 85k topped out. That being said, look at the neighboring counties, cops making 100 110 120 even 150 a year before overtime doing half the workload NYPD has. They make a “lot” compared to low income jobs but they’re the low income job next to their peers.

I guarantee you nothing would change if DOT took over traffic enforcement. It would be the same work with a person wearing different words on their uniform patch. The only way it changes is if fines are increased, vehicle pursuits are authorized, and actual jail time for leading cops on pursuits.
People need to understand they’re fucked 6 ways to Sunday if they get stopped by a cop. They’re not gonna obey the law otherwise because there’s no incentive to be a safe driver.

Rapes are committed more than one way. Same with robberies murders and assaults. Not all are gun based. Obviously.

It’s the same dumb math you did.
$35,000 seems like a large number but it pales in comparison to what a woman would pay to be free from rape, or a family to be free from the untimely death of a loved one.
It’s not 35k per gun, it’s 1 gun per # of victims prevented.

By that measure it costs $4,000 a ride to commute to work if you travel by bus.
