It's a theory of policing. From what I recall it basically says that you want to break down on smaller crimes such as broken windows, vandalism, or graffiti because if you let small things go on like that you create a poor environment in which more violent crimes will flourish as well as failing to prevent children from going down the path of criminality.

Broken windows policing works because you jail all the niggers committing small crimes before they inevitably start murdering and robbing like all niggers do.

Signal Zero was pretty interesting. Some professor shitting on the cops all the time gets an offer to spend 6 months on patrol. Completely changes his perspective.
