When black people were rioting we have their highest growth and wealth and property ownership.\u201dThe NYPD eliminated its anti-crime unit earlier that same month, reassigning roughly 600 officers from the units into other posts at the NYPD. At the time, NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea defended the decision as a chance to \u201cmove forward and change how we police in this city.\u201d\u201cThis is 21st-century policing: intelligence, data, ShotSpotter, video, DNA, and building prosecutable cases,\u201d Shea said. \u201cIt continues to be building these cases\u2014cases on a small number of people that unfortunately still terrorize a part of this city. I would consider this in the realm of closing on one of the last chapters on stop, question and frisk.\u201dThe Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
