If all of America was as safe and as heavily policed as New York, I’d have a different view of things. But then again, the NYPD (despite constantly acting like thugs and as assholes) has a way below average rate of police killings too. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s no secret that the NYC-centricity of their media can be distorting. So I think it’s worth noting that NYC’s crime rate is far below average, its cops per capita are above average, and its cops per square mile are *way* above average. — PolitiTweet.org

New York is big enough and its police department in particular is so enormous that it’s worth thinking a lot about them. But in general, reasoning about New York won’t give solutions for Dallas or Detroit or Des Moines and that’s true of policing too. — PolitiTweet.org
