Who did you vote for in your last DA election?

So you agree that cops are "punishing" the public by not doing their jobs because they disagree with who was elected DA?

Did any DA run on a platform of cracking down on double parking?

Were talking traffic laws, which DA has a role in with reckless driving, dwi, fake plates, etc

What role do they play? Please tell us how Alvin Bragg, who you seem to think is the only DA in New York City, stops NYPD from writing traffic tickets and enforcing basic non-criminal traffic laws

Gonzalez and Clark have been doing the same for years. Its all broken windows. Criminals know they can get away with low level felonies and vast major of misdemeanors. That translate to recklessness and lack of care.

DAs can't do anything if cops don't bother to go out and write tickets and arrest people. Besides, these traffic stops generally aren't criminal charges. The cops are just lazy and negligent.

Why would you do enforcement when it means nothing? Would someone make dinner for 10 if they knew only 3 were eating? No

Keep going in circles to find a way this isn't the fault of the NYPD.

These are traffic violations, not murders. You think Big Bad Bragg is doing BaiL ReFoRm for people who use fake plates? No. The cops refuse to enforce because most of them don't live here, drive in from elsewhere and have illegal plates on their own cars.

If you're so pro enforcement, then you believe in broken windows. Its all 1 big circle.

Do you even know what broken windows is/was? It wasn't referring to white folks in SUVs near police precincts in Brooklyn running red lights and using license plate covers.
