Bill Bratton On Cutting Crime, Restoring Order And His New Book | MSNBC
wheres the money coming from? sell the tanks!
It’s almost like we just gave trillions in fiat to mentally sickened billionaires like a morning work out but did nothing relevant for low income people during the pandemic. Imagine that.
Crime was low bc the establishment ignored crime committed by the establishment. If your offering low crime at the price of “comply or die” policing, NO FRIGGIN DEAL!
The idea of sending out social workers on 411 calls is nuts. Police in other countries don’t face anywhere near the threat of armed offenders that US police do. Domestic violence calls are among the most dangerous calls that cops have to respond to. The situation is already usually dangerously violent by the time the police arrive. What NYC needs to do is to go back to what works. If you don’t like to call it stop-and-frisk, call it something else. If you don’t like “broken windows policing”, call it something else. But do what works.
It not simple, the rent moratorium is ENDING…people don’t want to be homeless or hungry….they will do anything for this means!!
Crime is from keeping 60% of Americans poor and getting paid poverty wages.
Note the complete silence from white POLICE UNIONS about 1/6…….
We ALL know if this were BLACK men attackin the Capitol.. Bratton and EVERY Police Union would be at DC en FORCE to dismantle BLM and DEMAND HEARINGS..
NELLIS AIR FORCE BASE
All of YOUR BUZZARDS here at the acapella senior apartments are circling my apartment so I guess it won’t be long now.
Where does he get off calling himself reverend because he is the opposite of reverend. That is a race baiter hater not a Christian
There is a boost in crime because there is a decrease in jobs and economic stability… bring that in the community instead of talking about policing. Policing does not solve the issue.
Lmao Bill can’t answer any of the journalists questions. What exactly is his book about ??? Seems like a whole lotta nothing.
All police should undergo stringent pyschological tests, mental health checks should start with police officers before they’re let loose on the public first and foremost.
Enact Yang’s UBI policy and you will immediately see crime drop sharply.
Of course it won’t be panacea, but it’s a start.
So many people think of combatting crime the way we treat disease’s symptom, without actually seeking the underlying reason why people turn to crime in the first place.
GO ERIC!!
I see Adams or Garcia winning
Cutting crimes by treating the police like thrash,defunding them, downgrading them,and demonizing them mercilessly by MSM that always portrayed the police officers are like a public’s enemy number one?.Cutting a crime yet making a certain criminal as a martyr,a saint..by reforming the policing system?.To whom of all of this will be benefitting to?.To the MSM that only cares about rating and controversies of police..to the politician that doesn’t understand or an expert on how a true policing system works but because they are the one who suggest and passed on whatever nonsense act or bills that finally neglecting the safety and charity of both the true victims of the crimes and the police themselves..or most importantly,must be a fitting agenda that allows more crime to prosper because of one sided rule and court systems that can be manipulated to lessen the punishment because of certain race,skin color and status immunity without being held accountability after all?.No need to touch the subject of the mental health of the police officers..because who won’t be insane if the public’s mentality and non capabilities to respect and so self entitled is still deeply rooted within thyself!.With all of the crazy,WOKE and Cancel Culture movement thing and of course,pandemic…why don’t reviving back mental care institution or hospital so that…the real Social Workers,Mental HealthCare workers can actually have a real,decent job to do to handle these mentally ill patients,be it a citizens,police officers and everyone of whatever background and status can seek professional help instead lumping all of the social/mental related cases to the police to handle!.One more thing…why must worried about the police?.Are some certain peoples in some places in the states doesn’t even wanting the police department to even exist in their area or cities?.These people already gotten their wish,right?.So..why must be crying for police’s help now?.Where are the “good citizen guardians” that is proudly wanting to replace the police officer’s duty of protecting and served the public?.Suddenly died out after realized the truth on how dangerous,demanding,mentally challenging,patience testing and difficult the actual task was?.Are these people ONLY believe the Social Workers to helped them out in that situation?.Aren’t some states have an active law about guns right?.Now..how about using it now to control the crimes that is becoming more vicious and rampant?.For the good cause,right?.Love to lived in a Wild West era..so there you have it!.After all…even the police officers doing their job fine…but in the end,they will be thrown under the bus and be accused of profiling,(to a certain race,you know it)..doesn’t want to hold responsible when asking the police to help handling people with mental related problems and because the officers handling it like a criminal should be handled on..makes the officers getting fired,sued because the irresponsible party did not asking the proper agency (mental care workers) to assisting them…and because of resisting arrest too (passive or aggressive resisting)will get the officers in trouble..specially when it involved a certain skin color perpetrator(s)..the result of the so called “wrongful arrest” and “police brutality” will makes highlights by the MSM..public perjuries the sensationalized case and the officers will be under unfair trial ever with the judge and lawyers are under threat by outside factors!.No use to Reform…it was RETRAINING,IMPROVISING AND CHANGING some of the acts/bills and also..the one factor that needs an urgent reform is the penalty and punishment of the court’s legal system!.No more pampering the criminals…but focus more on the fair trial for the justice of the real victims!.
White Americans are citizens, American citizens deserve good police departments: Black Americans are citizens, American citizens deserve a good police department. Why is this such a hard maxim for people?
The discussion itself is a welcome restoration of a civil and intelligent discussion of an issue. Well-done MSNBC. Nice job.
0:34 – look at the chart well. Crime is at the top. Racial injustice is at the bottom. And NY has the most minority voters. Thanks.
Not surprised that Maya Wiley is last
Everybody with a brain that works knows how to cut crime….but cutting crime makes no money….somebody has to be the slaves.
Re engage in what communities kkk Jo
Maybe they should focus on the AR15 loving mass shooting white community
Daily Reminder: [insert something about Trump]
Maybe if the media stop bashing the police we would see a reduction in crime? Media never shows the good things officers do, but the moment one bad officer messes up its all they show.
Why be an officer when the public you’re serving is against you?
