[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With violent crime soaring back to 90s levels, it's time to bring back broken windows policing. Discuss.[/quote] We already know Broken Windows doesn’t work. The cops mostly ended up hassling working class black guys on their way to their jobs (or coming home from work), because those were easy targets for making their monthly “stop” numbers. Most cops didn’t want to actually deal with a legit gangbanger carrying a firearm. I’m fine with bringing back the jump out squads who target drug dealers or folks selling stolen goods. Also fine with random traffic stops to ensure license plates are legit, vehicle is not stolen, or no outstanding tickets greater than $1000 (this will ensnare a lot of Maryland vehicles). [/quote] I support this but the police should only patrol in Ward 3. Previous patrols were focused on other wards in the city, and a matter of equity, Ward 3 should receive its fair share of beatings.[/quote]
