The New York City Council is expected to approve a bill to ban solitary confinement this week over the objections of Mayor Eric Adams, who may veto it.
edit: checked Wikipedia - Mayor de Blasio was term-limited. He also promised to end stop-and-frisk, and kinda half-assed it. He was the one cops turned their backs on while he was eulogizing two officers killed off-duty.
Look. I’m a milquetoast liberal. I believe society requires something very close to a modern police force, in order to function properly. But have we thought about firing all these motherfuckers and starting from scratch?
The bastards tried same thing here in Chicago. Luckily people saw through it and we didn’t elect the pro-cop DINO candidate. Who even now is writing opinion pieces for conservative rags complaining about Mayor Johnson not giving the police what they wanted.
While at the same time CPD cost tax payers $280M in lawsuits from 2019 to now. Something like $600M over the past decade. While having a $2B annual operating budget as is.
Santize their overarched union too. They’re ALL literally evil. Lets be a little more explicit here and say they’re ALL Manipulative, lying, sociopathic, murderous failures.
How the hell did they elect a cop as Mayor immediately after 2020? Good on them for defying him, good on them for the ban.
IIRC, the previous mayor attempted the barest hint of reform, causing police to throw a hissy fit and let more crimes happen.
Not for the first time.
