Mamdani Sinks $260 Million Into Office of Community Safety, Where Social Workers Replace Cops, as Big Apple Faces Historic Budget Crisis

Now sparky, push the cognitive dissonance out of the way.

When Police Depts are answering calls that could and should be answered by others, it's a waste of tax payer dollars and keeps Police far from where they are truly needed

Wake the fuk up

 

[Ropey]

it's a waste of tax payer dollars

You dems will just tax more and if it adds to the straw that breaks the democrat's back?

It's all to the good.

Wake the fuk up

There you go again, sleepwalking through the same tired script.

“Swirling down the drain” is an apt description of the communist takeover of NYC. The democrats just can’t let go of their “defund the police” ideology.

It’s the usual democrat tax and spend pattern where they drive people and businesses away while bludgeoning the middle class.

I’m sure this will turn out great. Put “social workers” into the teeth of dangerous domestic and criminal disputes.

Hey. Maybe they can deputize non English speaking illegals to intervene in volatile disputes. Sounds like a plan.

New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani (D.) is sinking a quarter of a billion dollars into his new Office of Community Safety—which is intended to deploy social workers to respond to hate crimes, mental health crises, and other events typically handled by police—as the city faces a historic budget crisis.

This experiment deserves a try. Let's see if social workers lower the crime rate.

I fully support defunding the police if not outright abolishing the police. Just for the number of dead social workers it will be worth it. The fewer police the more the ordinary citizen will have to see to their own defense. Ordinary citizens unburdened by the myriad laws hamstringing the police will do more good than all Use Of Force Manuals.

You have been comatose for a few years, right?

lol!

Right.

You nailed it. The Dainty has never been known for his honesty, since he considers it beneath him.

Scene: an enraged psycho is threatening the folks on a NYC street with a machete.

Call the police? Oh, come now. What could police possibly do?

No no

Instead call some social workers. They can surely “talk it out” with the machete wielding psycho.

And if he doesn’t listen, they are prepared (as necessary) to warn him that they will ask him AGAIN about his childhood.
