Listen to his interviews yourself. Any medium, including podcasts, are packaging a narrative for you to hear. For better or worse. Personally and I’m black I listened to his latest interview and his points are pretty strong, it becomes obvious how he is being painted in a false light after hearing the interviews for yourself then hearing other people use clips to say he’s mentally ill and crazy.

Same, used to work for one of the largest depts in the us, the part 1 crimes that are violent really take up the mindshare in a violent city. Cameras only tell so much, the flyers go out with what is found. Lots of people don’t snitch either. We are relying a lot more on technology not just registries of voluntary ring locations but LPRs etc. I think the goal is to get around no snitching.

Wow! You and I actually have very similar roles.

This has been upsetting me about some of what I believe are people raised on the current regime of FAANGesque flattening of society, lot of things have this built in assumption that public services are so unlimited that their cost is not appreciated. Like the gov can be as omnipresent and self sacrificing as a diety.

I do the same for another major city, but I actually work for the dept and crunch more than just homicide numbers. Assuming poster isn’t with a dept or maybe city gov, Honestly it’s not that exciting to be on the outside crunching murder numbers. Me and op work in similar jurisdictions, and he seems to have a good grasp on his stuff, so I hope he’s working with the dept.

It’s MUCH more interesting to get a job with the dept as they let you run wild on all their data from fleets to police locations, investigations, digital stuff like facial rec etc. most depts need good analysts too in beleaguered cities so go against the grain and join up, you’ll love it. Not to mention the security and benefits. Lot of my work revolves around holding cops more accountable that to me is the most interesting stuff, not crime analysis.

Just had a meeting yesterday where the majors were asking me how our team can figure out what aspects of a detectives investigation leads to the maximum likelihood of case closures and identifying the largest factors for example. As much as Twitter/nonprofit/outsider crime analysts have access to open data, some stuff you gotta be on the inside to access let alone move the needle vs. just reporting analysis to followers. Highly encourage anyone reading to consider…

I understand this works elsewhere, but unfortunately in America we have a long history with firearms. Growing up in a rural area it’s normal, times have changed, AR are seen as normal in places where it was a shotgun or a ruger in the past.

Point is most discussions related to strict control on these rifles to me is mostly pointless, the genie is out the bottle if talking about curbing assault rifles they have been flooding the streets for over a decade at this point.

Me personally I also believe these things make America America, problems and all. It may seem like a weird worldview to some, but some love the fact America has this wild edge to it, it’s not perfect but if you’re living right and being responsible it mostly works out fine. We have old people like everyone else. Making our country work like other counties isn’t as common as looking at what other states are doing in my experience. And states have their own micro cultures that are more or less permissive of this stuff, again that’s what many love about the US

It’s nice if you have drug problems because it takes away urge to do basically every other drug, however it’s very addictive, very voluminous (you gotta carry a lot of Messy powder around) and you’ll be addicted for years

Also check the lab tests for the powders, it’s a lot of weird things in the soil most grows in.

Very interesting. Almost like it wants to flatten society, all gays are all the same. To me I hope this doesn’t keep people from being unique or growing in the future

You would consider this robbery/theft? Had an in person sale with money sent over cashapp and they charged me 250 dollars more, as the item received was half of what I expected. This was automotive fluids, not drugs lol. I had stupidly sent the money before I checked. Cashap didn’t do anything and figured I messed up so why go to bank.

Hits me a little different now…

What kind of vehicles are you using? I’m always interested in how newer model vehicles are behaving after so many miles. With the new tech like so many cars having turbos fleets are really the only chance we get to see long term reliability in a short time period after introduction

Right, I’m extremely add and get euphoria. I also feel a lot of the people who treat this as “my medication” types (they’re common) should realize the worst thing about adderall is that it makes you happy doing stupid menial stuff

Beyond that there are categories that I believe normalize behaviors such as transgenders, where the reasons for their increased visibility in wider society cannot be uncoupled. So it muddies the waters whether the porn, is playing any role, and prevents critical questioning of root causes. which in this case “sissy hypno genre” within trans porn directly tells viewers they want to be a girl and get fucked over and over. This is a large portion of transgender porn genre that viewers will eventually rabbithole to w the algorithm.

Personally I’d be very skeptical of supporting my child transitioning if it was rooted in blatant porn brainwashing such as this.

Damn sometime I think as an analyst in LE that the obsession with data while crime skyrockets is stupid. I also vehemently hate advertising. Never thought that the whole time I pivoted from public policy > stats > data as a result of advertising’s influence. Makes me sick, time to crawl back towards stats and get out of this world.

Thanks for saying this, I’ve been following internet police advice since the “never get busted for weed again” DVDs and have been pulled over tons of times. This advice is what I follow myself based on those experiences. A lot of this “do not consent” or whipping out the phone immediately to film stuff is premature and only serves to put you in a bad situation. When you really have reasons to keep the cops off your trunk, these tactics aren’t feasible.

I understand you said you don’t want to tell us, but the way you wrote that comment you have to imagine it would generate interest. Can you share it or provide a clue (though since this is HN, I would appreciate it if you shared the knowledge with us). Knowing about these sites is more than the gore. People with kids, journalists, public safety people and more source stuff from these places, and often to do good or inform.

Not true. Anyone who joins a job like that is going to want strong protections whether they use them or not. Why would I work for department X where if I make a mistake I can be ruined when department Y will trust that by going thru the process to become LE, in general I’m not looking to be a corrupt maniac. Not to mention those same depts will let me keep an AR in my trunk, send an MRAP to cover me when I am going into a sketchy situations

Similarly, why would I join a dept with a weak union when I can be in one where I’m backed by a union that for better or worse will assume innocent until proven guilty and protect the paying members.

If true that’s more to the point. The deal is that you work for the police, govt gives you some discretion and power to act on their behalf.

If I don’t get any protection for that, why would I err on the side of intervening in ambiguous situations.

I’d even argue that it’s normal to expect some mistakes, and in general QI should be protected for this reason.

Govt should realize police are only real thing they have to enforce those reams of legalese (not taking about other things like fines). Meaning if they want to stop you RIGHT NOW, they going to have to use a cop. Govt shooting themselves in the foot by neutering their legitimacy to enforce what they say we have to do

Jewish people are the highest in 2019, like 63% when I looked. From that, I came to the conclusion that the stats are mostly driven by those who are more active in identification and reporting of potentially racist behavior.

I don’t necessarily think it speaks to the amount of hate crime fully.
