Bob was arrested for assault last night. Bob was Brought in and processed. Bob's name and alias' were run through a gang database of known gang members. Bob is someone police have been looking for in regards to past crimes/gang assaults/gang whatever. Now Bob has bigger problems.

Make sense or nah?

I know it wasn't a serious question anyway.

Lol, so every time Bob gets arrested, they keep running his name in the gang database

Ok, we get it, after like the 5th arrest, he's in a gang

At that point what difference does it make

Werdywerd, you've been doing a very good job of reporting every crime that happens

Any mention of gang databases?

The gang database is legit. NYPD knows a lot more about the gangs and their members than the casual observer could ever know. Especially now that social media makes it so much easier (perps are terrible at OPSEC).

Anyway, I say end it. We need crime to keep going up so leftists can keep explaining every little racist thing to us neanderthals who want to live in safe neighborhoods.
