The NYPD is skulking through the L train demanding IDs from Black and Latino men, again with zero justified cause or explanation as to why.

Considering a lot of the NYPD straight up said they'd resign if he became mayor, I think he's got a pretty good chance of bringing change if he really wants to

They said the same thing in my city.

Then they stopped patrolling/enforcing anything.

And surprise surprise, violent crime actually went down.

Now they go around harassing homeless people because they don't have anything else to do.
