QuoteThe NYPD has a hard time hiring black men to become police officers because too many have criminal records, the city's top cop said in an interview.

NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton said it's a challenge to find hirable blacks because so many African-American men have been arrested.

"We have a significant population gap among African-American males because so many of them have spent time in jail and, as such, we can't hire them," Bratton said in an interview published Tuesday by The Guardian, a British newspaper with a New York bureau.

Bratton put at least part of the blame on the NYPD's use of the controversial tactic stop-and-frisk, according to The Guardian. He acknowledged the "unfortunate consequences (of) stop, question and frisk," a policy that hit communities of color hardest.

Pretty soon no one will want to be a cop....then what?

Less cops there are less of them to shoot black people.  I cant believe that needed to be explained.

FYI, it was tongue and cheek.

The City of Syracuse New York just passed a resolution to stop inquiring of job applicants whether they have a criminal record.  I have to assume that this upstate New york city is not the first municipality to decide to do this.  So, how would you like the possiblity of ex-felons having access to all your personal data;  I assume those even on probation or parole would be ablee to apply for any job they wish without having any reason to worry about their (public) employer knowing anything about who and what they are.  Just think about this, the next time the meter reader needs to come inside your home.

I don't think so.  Remember more black people are killing each other then police officers are killing them.

Over the past 35 years in America, an estimated 324,000 blacks have been killed at the hands of fellow blacks, proving "racist" white cops are the least of their worries.

Typical liberal naive thinking. If there are less police there will be more Blacks killing Blacks.

and which set of cheeks was your tongue in when you say imbecilic things such as that?

Actually you are right in a twisted sort of way....the less cops there are the more black people will likely die. As any fool realizes, more black people in this country die at the hand of another black person, usually by gunshot. The less cops there are to stop the thugs and arrest them for carrying handguns the more they are free to run around and shoot other black people (also include rob rape and steal).

Statistics (facts) prove this, but I understand as a left winger you don;t want to accept such facts and deal with gut emotion.

Real easy solution...as My former Boss Marion Barry concluded....lower the standards so that black people with criminal records (even violent felonies) can join the dept. Lower the testing standards so that even somebody without a high school diploma can join the PD.
