Bait bikes... being a similar theroy, but with flat tires?Originally posted by Wingnut@Sep 1 2005, 03:09 PM
As you can guess, we watch COPS a lot. I love the bait bikes, those are hilarious. And the prostitute stings, there's ALWAYS at least one guy dressed up in the mix. :lol: :lol:
Whatshisname.. the guy who "changed" NYPD in the early 1990's.... he made a push towards stopping "quality of life" crimes - "Squeegie Guys" beggars, prostitutes, dtreet-corner drug dealing etc.... he cites some evidence that if you remove the daily lawbreaking from the neighborhood, people are less likley to do "bigger" things, and they are more likley to be noticed and reported.Originally posted by coloradoemt@Sep 2 2005, 08:44 AM
Prostitution stings... Tax dollars at work being wasted while the real criminals run rampant...
No... Police Commish. - either Rudy's, or the guy before him... can't remember...Originally posted by Chimpie@Sep 3 2005, 07:59 AM

Bratton... that was it.... He was the same guy who ran NYC Transit when they finally got automatics...Originally posted by Chimpie@Sep 3 2005, 08:30 AM
William Bratton came in first with Rudy, cutting crime in half. But Rudy forced him to resign and brought in Bernard Kerik, who cut crime by, as some people estimate, 95%.
So depending on which one you were looking for, there ya go.
