Slain NYPD rookie wanted to improve relations between cops and communities
https://nypost.com/2022/01/22/slain-...d-communities/
The rookie cop who was shot and killed while responding to a domestic violence call in Harlem Friday wanted to join the NYPD to “better the relationship between the community and the police,” he wrote in a letter obtained by The Post.
Officer Jason Rivera, 22, said his experience growing up in Inwood, where relations between police and the community were strained during the stop and frisk era, inspired him to become the first in his family to join New York’s Finest.
“When I applied to become a police officer, I knew this was the career for me,” he wrote in a letter to the commanding officer of the police academy in November 2020.
“Coming from an immigrant family, I will be the first to say that I am a member of the NYPD, the greatest police force in the world,” Rivera wrote.
The earnest “Why I Became a Police Officer” letter detailed how Rivera once watched his brother get stopped and frisked after they were pulled over in a taxi, and said that at the time, his “perspective on police and the way they police really bothered me.”
“Growing up in Inwood, Manhattan, the community’s relationship between the police and community was not great,” Rivera wrote. “I was too young to know that during that time, the NYPD was pulling over and frisking people at a high rate.”
...
The young officer was killed after he and two other cops responded to a domestic disturbance call from a woman who said she needed help with her son at around 6:15 p.m. Friday.
Authorities said Lashawn McNeil, 47, allegedly swung open a door in the apartment at 119 West 135th Street and opened fire on Rivera and Officer Wilbert Mora, 27, who was gravely wounded.
The third officer fired back and struck McNeil in the head and arm as the suspect tried to flee. McNeil was in critical condition at Harlem Hospital, police said.

“I was too young to know that during that time, the NYPD was pulling over and frisking people at a high rate.”
Unfortunately he learned the hard way why the police were frisking so many minority males. Not because of "Muh racism" but because they were carrying guns and killing people.Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

NYC let him down.
And it will let down the rest of cops as well.
They're fighting for a city that doesn't give a chit about them.

Looking at the world through rose colored glasses cost him his life. Yes it’s endearing and heartwarming to see someone be optimistic but you still have to realize and accept why people say hey gotta be extra careful for your own safety around them. Or hey gotta be extra mindful if they actually like you or are fronting and deep down will never like you because where your parents are from.
Sad he died but guilt tripping his own department into trying to lower safety concerns was childish. Better him than another officer that had to legally stop cuz of this officer and it got him/her

NYC and cities alike are beyond saving. Where is Bane when you need him? Burn the city down and start over. Or you could move to Texas.

Chit like this goes straight to my heart dude.
Its such a noble virtue to seek dialogue and wanting to improve things at such a young age, especially when you were involved in whatever you're trying to improve from a young age.
RIP brah...
