Comment on NYPD Kicking People Out of Their Homes, Even If They Haven’t Committed a Crime

Comments

>In partnership with ProPublica, the Daily News reviewed 516 residential nuisance abatement actions filed in the Supreme Courts from Jan. 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014

This does seem like an evil program, or at least a well-meaning program that is being abused. But 516 actions across a state over an 18-month period? Even if there is a disproportionate impact upon minorities, if there was systemic racism behind this I would expect far far more given the number of potential victims.
