Mike Moy agreed with comparisons of the NYPD to gang organizations, asserting that during his training officers were told they were the biggest gang. The candid discussion highlighted concerns about the NYPD's internal culture, particularly around concepts like the “blue wall of silence” and reluctance to report fellow officers involved in misconduct. Moy suggested that a change in mindset and training could improve public relations, urging officers to view themselves as public servants providing customer service. Vlad shared personal experiences of arrogance and undue aggression from NYPD officers, which Moy attributed to poor training and the hierarchical treatment by superiors. Moy emphasized the necessity for accountability within the force to curb behavior that he noted emboldens misconduct, akin to what is observed in gangs.
