When the things bothering them are "having black neighbors", I'd say most other systems are more fair.

You’re assuming the locals are “bad people” and making decisions on their behalf, then?

I'm assigning no blame. I'm giving an example of the kind of behavior that ultimately was encouraged by ND.

>>jquery+Ij
If they're bothered by their black neighbors, then yes, of course they are.

>>joshua+Rm
How was ND encouraging it?

>>jquery+W62
By offering this very low friction way of contacting the police, you end up enabling people to reach out to the police for minor inconveniences that they wouldn't otherwise have.

There may be noble outcomes from this, but there are also clearly negative ones. Once again, I'm not claiming it was ever ND's intent to do this. Just that in practice the design of the system enabled and tacitly encouraged these behaviors.
