Cops don't protect you and they don't serve you. They entirely serve their own interest and do as they are told. I had a small period of time when I was "back the blue" attitude for cops until I saw that they fined a small business in 2020 because a lady complained the workers had masks under their nose.

Then I noticed crime in our area spiked insanely and the majority of the cops presence in the town was purely for ticketing drivers in speed traps and sitting around after an accident.

One of the great misconceptions people have is that cops are there to protect you. They are there to give you paper work and berate you if you didn't protect yourself correctly. Oh and don't forget the money.

You do know that writing tickets have actually plummeted throughout these past couple of years? That street stops and traffic stops have plummeted?

You people wanted a reactive police force, and that's what you got, crime surged and like usual, you made lame ass excuses for those surges....

When cop sighs, you have to listen carefully, there is "schmuck" somewhere in it.

Cops cannot selectively apply the law. If cop sees something, he has obligation to do something. Besides, like someone mentioned above, most people respect the law by bagging the open container. So, bag would be like being a nice person, respectful to people around them. The girl in question was educated on how to be nice. All fair IMO.

Just because they wouldn't look at you twice doesn't mean that public drinking should be cited more than looting.

Yes they can. Maybe it's different in Canada.

normal, law abiding people are generally neutral with cops from my experience.

people that tip too far on one side of "back the blue" or "ACAB" are generally unstable, with the "back the blue" people being a bit naive/dumb and the "ACAB" people being kind of losers who have done time in jail/prison and generally dislike all authority figures due to having a chitty relationship with their parents.

False

I’ve never met someone who dislikes cops who wasn’t a criminal or utter violent degenerate of some sort


The most anti cop people I know are the tradies I’ve worked with who subtle brag about how much time they’ve done in prison for beating their wife into a bloody coma or nearly killing a family of four by maiming them when DWI

Literally people who have to brag to everyone they meet about being a violent scumbag POS

Let that sink in …..

Yeah it was in the East Village. He noticed it was a monster energy and then asked me if I lived there, once he couldn't bust me for drinking. So I nodded yes, as it was my stoop, and he took off. And then it had me thinking, was this prick really gonna try to bust my balls for sitting on a stoop and drinking an energy drink in the event that I didn't live there?


Edit: NYC considers it illegal to drink alcohol on your stoop, as they consider it public space:
Because a stoop can be viewed from the street or sidewalk, it can be considered a public place, which is defined by the New York Administrative Code as “a place to which the public or a substantial group of persons has access.” A gate can provide a divide between these public and private spheres, but not always.

When you think about it, quotas are a great way to waste LEO time and keep them focused on useless bullchit. Can't expend all their energy on serious crime because they gotta hit dat quota

We don't have quotas. But truth be told, street stops and traffic stops have led to bigger things.

Son of Sam was caught because of a simple parking ticket, Timothy McVeigh was caught because of a traffic stop.

Your post is factually incorrect, and does not address the point of this thread at all.

Imagine thinking that placing a bag over an alcoholic beverage is "respectful", when all it does is broadcast "HEY I AM DRINKING ALCOHOL". Yeesh.

Not false.

I never had a problem with cops until I was pulled over for not wearing a seatbelt

Ok I’m guilty of no wearing a seat belt. Fine. I’ll accept the ticket for it. But you can’t pull me over for it.

Police are the enforcement arm of a corrupt government (which is predominantly jewish and democrat run in manhattan btw).

They exist to protect property of the wealth class and perpetuate their own existence. Thinking they give a chit about your safety or "protecting and serving" YOU is laughable blue pill delusion.

Weed is legalized here and folks smoke it near kids in Central Park but drinking a glass of wine is prohibited? Clown city srs, and we have a cop as mayor now.
Repped for "brewski" usage.

You’re literally a ****ing moron if you expect a single officer to be everywhere and responsible for responding to every single crime in the city

Get a ticket for having a drink in public, but they allow zombies to inject drugs all day, every day, and also look the other way when junkie sloots dole out handjobs for smack.

You're both poor and lack education hence the retardation in your posts.

I can tell you're seething by the word "yuppie", lol. People like you don't go to neighborhoods like that. You're so triggered by your socioeconomic class, or lack thereof. Oof.

That’s the point. You can’t pull me over just for a seatbelt if I didn’t do anything immediately dangerous, which is what needs to be enforced, not for not wearing a seatbelt.

Answering the calls that the public makes equals protecting the property of the wealthy?

Yup. Local CVS has locks on ice cream due to mass thievery. Yet I haven't seen a single arrest for that.

But ticketing upper class folks having a drink near a park - an excellent use of LEO capacity in NYC right? Clearly a push from AOC types.

It is plebcel gigacope that you're quoting. Just that LEOs here have been repeatedly ordered to stand down when it came to looters and rioters.

Hence the dichotomy ITT.
