New York Police Commissioner Steps Down https://politicalwire.com/2024/09/12/new-york-police-chief-steps-down/

I heard remarks by Mayor Adams that were broadcast on WINS radio. Among other things, he praised the commissioner for New York City's record low number of shootings last month and various other measures of declines in crime that he claimed make New York "the safest big city in the world." The U.S., yes. The world? I can't imagine it's safer than Tokyo and Singapore. But neither these nor his involvement in the investigations of the 1993 World Trade Center and USS Cole bombings that Adams also mentioned have anything to do with his resignation. A record of achievement doesn't justify corruption.

Apparently, White people account for only 5% of "Stop and Frisk".

Though there's a lot less of it now than during the Giuliani and Bloomberg days, because of legal action.
