Where did it stat "Hard cases"? See words matter, you are trying to change a word here or there to fit your weak ass excuses.
From your link:
Previous filings in the case allege that the quota system also encouraged officers not to arrest
"soft targets," who were Asian, Jewish and white people.
From another source:
“Soft targets” were Asian, Jewish and white people, who weren’t to be arrested.
“Hard targets” were Black and Hispanic people, the cops say.
Four NYPD officers say in new sworn declarations that an off-the-books arrest quota system targeted Black and Latino New Yorkers — with one cop recalling a white supervisor asking, “Are…

Please show us where "hard cases" is used. To arrest "hard targets," who police allege were Black and Hispanic people.
"On one occasion in the 40th Precinct a white supervisor asked an African-American police officer, 'Are you going to take someone's freedom today?'" Spruill said in an affidavit.
The latest document is among some two dozen papers from current and former police officers who have backed a claim that a race-based quota systemdisproportionately affected minority officers.
You don't have a problem with a quota system when it is putting minorities in jail.
I haven't found the word criminal anywhere.
So who do you think they are arresting, law-abiding citizens? The demographics of NYC is 30% white and the rest minorities. Combine that statistic with the fact blacks per capita commit the most violent crime in our country, then of course to rid crime, most of the people there will be minorities. This isn't rocket science. Now if minority police officers are not arresting the worst of the worst because of their race, they are not performing their jobs.
Yea I bet that is easy to do.
No, it isn't. That's why these places are in business.
Yea think about that, think about all the black men who served in WWII and Korea to free folks who had more freedoms than they did. Look at how they were discriminated when it came to housing loans, college funds, etc. Think about how many black men that were denied those jobs just because they were black and they couldn't just curse folks out and then get the job.
And I agree, it was awful, but it's also something you didn't experience.
You say that to say what, that most black men ended up in prison.
No, but the left is always using poverty in the black communities across our country as an excuse for black crime, just like you use this phantom racism to excuse black failure economically. Forget about the 70% out of wedlock birth rate and black women having several
baby daddies, it has to be discrimination for their failures.
Tell you what Ray, when you listen to how bad your father had it ramp that up two folds for black folks. Sorry but you can't tell me about bad times and my parents and grand parents who grew up down South had experiences a helluva lot worse than that.
I'm sure there are in some cases, however my only point is that it was not just blacks who faced hard times due to race and ethnicity. Growing up in the 60s in Cleveland as a child, there was nothing but segregation; not just by race, but by ethnicity. Yes, you could buy a pizza in our Italian section of the city, but if you were not Italian and move there, they'd likely find your body in an alley somewhere. Back then, whites separated from each other and also discriminated against each other like what happened to my father.
Furthermore if my sister and I get anything from our parents after they pass on, we will be the first generation in our family to do so, and it won't be all that much. It's the same with all my friends that I grew up with. This lie that whites benefited greatly from inherited wealth is a small minority of whites.
