Yes, given that there aren’t enough cops to be everywhere at once and the presence of the cops isn’t necessarily going to deter random acts of violence.
Plus cops end up posted by the turnstiles looking to ticket fare jumpers than be on the platforms doing fuck-all.

For all the complaining the MTA and the state do, you’d think we’d get new turnstiles that were harder to fare beat, but that costs money so let’s have cops at the station forever spending a shitload of money to keep them posted there.
