“They are quite friendly and let people skate on things that a Dallas pig would not.”
The communist black mayor of our city, whose name, ironically, is Marks, has hired solely to enhance revenue. The cops seem to do little else but write code violations. Perhaps they feel, justifiably, I think, they aren’t liked.
They maintain a department whose sole purpose is seizing property. They seized a house on a valuable downtown lot from a black lady whose underage grandson allegedly sold drugs from her porch. The paper said that if she hadn’t owned this half million dollar property outright they’d never have seized it. That’s the kind of police state we live in. Let’s not even talk about the code enforcement cameras and how they turned down the yellow to the three second minimum because they weren’t getting enough revenue.
Part of it is just raising the revenue to pay themselves; they have a vested interest in issuing as many tickets as possible. Look at how it played out in the news when the NYPD stopped issuing tickets to protest DiBlasio’s lack of support last year; the loss of revenue to the city was incredible (and shameful).
