An internal NYPD study found no link between the sharp drop in street stops and a rise in shootings, the Daily News has learned.
Shootings rose 6% in 2014 compared with the year before as the number of stop-and-frisk encounters dropped to a record-low 46,235 — a staggering decrease from the high of 605,328 in 2011.
Shootings are up again — about 20% in 2015 through Sunday — but the NYPD said the study doesn’t prove a link between the increase in shootings and fewer stops.

And terrorism is a random act of violence.

Study finds no link between the rising of the sun and the fading of darkness. It’s pure coincidence these phenomena happen together.

Just wait until the first prominent Leftist is gunned down in the street in NYC.
Of course, the usual suspects will blame the police.

When the Dems win elections it’s the people that voted who count. When Dems lose elections it’s the people who did not vote who count. The bottom line is they (both parties) think we are wimps and who can blame them.

There's also no link between the increase in mass-murder and the increase in jihadists.
