The NYPD is skulking through the L train demanding IDs from Black and Latino men, again with zero justified cause or explanation as to why.

If Zohran becomes mayor, can he potentially change anything about how the NYPD does things?

Considering a lot of the NYPD straight up said they'd resign if he became mayor, I think he's got a pretty good chance of bringing change if he really wants to

They said the same thing in my city.

Then they stopped patrolling/enforcing anything.

And surprise surprise, violent crime actually went down.

Now they go around harassing homeless people because they don't have anything else to do.
