What's this?

NYC puts more cops in the dangerous neighborhoods

They use statistical systems to see where crime hotspots are. Euro-weenies declare neighborhoods "No-go" zones. Constables and Gendarmes don't go there.

BTW I went from the Bronx to Charlottesville in the 90s, heard more gunshots from the Lawn (3x) at night than I ever did in the Boogie-down (0x)
