This leads to crime reduction. You know what else it leads to? It leads to making contact with criminals, which leads to confrontations, which leads to shootings. Won't be allowed.



Strangely, it's also leads to cries of racism and harassment due to "profiling and targeting." Let's ignore elevated crime statistics because they only exist due to over-policing. And the circle begins again. Seems like a no win situation for the police.

Exactly.

SWB's constituency doesn't want the cops their neighborhoods but they want less crime.

It's just like the gentrification issue. They want nice stuff, but don't want property values to increase.
