And gun control had nothing to do with it.

Now, repeal the Sullivan Acts, and watch the crime rate fall further.

Will “Law and Order” move to another city?

"And the Kelly-era NYPD has continued the nuts and bolts of effective policing - stop-and-frisks toget guns off the street and enforcement of quality-of-life laws - despite carping from the usual critics."

Stop and frisk sounds like an illegal search. But hey I guess if it gets those evil guns off the street. NYC is now a police state and crowing about it.

—having seen on the internet within the last year or so that any type controlled substance is available at any time in NYC by merely making a cell phone call to numbers easily available to practically anyone, I am of the firm belief that the drug trade is in a near monopoly situation, so that there is no need for disputes over distribution-—contributing mightily to the low murder rate—

It also helps to put criminals in jail.

New York incarceration, prisoners:

[Mr Inviso]

but but but, I thought it was Rudy that was causing crime to decrease in NYC... He’s not mayor anymore, this must all be lies!

After the toll and subway fare increases this week, I expect even more murderers to be priced out of the 5 boroughs.

[the invisib1e hand]

The NYPD combines superb management with massive manpower.

Lemme get this straight...there are fewer murders (if you say so) because of police management? Police management keeps people from killing each other? I didn't think police management was a factor until after someone was murdered.

Is that like saying there are more engineers because of university management?

Apparenly there are no individuals anymore. Only aggregates managed by institutions.

Screw that.

Where did it go New Jersey, Philadelphia?

[vpintheak]

I knew a couple of outstanding soldiers that were NYPD and said they had to quit because they couldn’t afford living near there. $25,100 starting salary? That is a slap in the face, NYPD no doubt has lost many more because of that low salary. I could make more working at Kinko’s or McDonalds, and not have to worry about getting killed.
