    It just seems like an easy target to me. Anyone with even a passing knowledge of socioeconomics knows that crime, especially crimes of opportunity sky rockets in poor communities.

    This is a case of “treating the symptom and not the cause”. Which is just easy mode bullshit policing. And another example of police prioritising property over people.

      I think they just want easy arrests. It makes their department look good. Police is just a business in reality.
