Agreed stats show New York has less crime year by year , these days it’s very safe compared to the 80s or 90s. But there’s always gonna still be crime , It’s impossible for crime not to happen. And yea it’s amazing how much ppl blame Deblasio for everything , honestly I don’t like him much either and think he does have dumb ideas but he cannot literally stop crime from happening and shudnt be blamed for it all But yea lot of shootings this weekend but they mostly happened in areas where that usually happens ... east New York , Harlem , Bronx
Exactly my point.
At this point I'm asking who's paying them to make these threads......
Like call me when this stuff is happening all over the city, like how it was when I was a kid.
This is mostly due to transplants, its the truth
Where the city messed up is when they banned SROs, but thats cause they couldnt control the crime back then (honestly the part around my way now that has legal SROs, is a dump area, B110-B115)
Now that the crime is under control, bring SROs back and regulate it properly, we have the resources now
That way you dont have trust funds driving up real estate prices

OP, aint you from South Bronx? You should be the first one on 149th Street telling them to stop...
I can't anymore. Some say the stuff that I say comes out and sounds racist, even though it is the truth. I nearly had the isrealits hotep trying to chase me down 149 street and 125 too.
Why Violence Is Spiking in Pockets of Brooklyn, Even as the City Gets Safer
Six shootings over the Memorial Day weekend reflect gang violence that is fueling a rise in killings this year in northern Brooklyn. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/29/n...-rate-nyc.html
"One shooting concerns us," said Deputy Chief Michael Kemper, the commanding officer of detectives in the precinct known as Brooklyn North, which includes neighborhoods like Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights and Brownsville. "But to have six shootings over a holiday weekend is certainly concerning.”
"“Maybe we have a problem,” Deputy Inspector Charlie Minch, the commanding officer of the 79th Precinct, recalled thinking. He was right. The ambush drove violence up that summer, and fueled the spike early this year."
The stats are (and have always been) fudged. That combined with the overall level of day to day hostility on NYC streets lends to an air of apprehension.

Well cops have always tried to not report crimes so their stats don't look bad but shootings are shootings and murders are murders and there is no way to sweep those under the rug which is why they are used as a benchmark
Good. Let them kill each other. I still think the city should give free shooting lessons to all gang members. That way they will stop coming out blasting, gun cocked sideways in one hand, killing a bunch of babies in strollers with their missed shots. Teach them to hit their intended target, aka another hood gang banger.
I don’t think there needs to be awareness. Warmer weather, brings out more people therefore there’s an increase in the possibility of crime. We don’t need an app to confirm what we already know. Manhattan’s #’s on assault, rape and theft will increase mostly in the Chelsea, Chinatown, LES, Tribeca, Union/Times Square, Soho, Greenwich and Harlem areas. Flatbush will become an even hotter mess (Jamaicans, Guyanese, Haitians etc.) Definitely avoid Brownsville/ENY - and in Bronx the Latino gangs are out in full force. None of that will keep New Yorkers indoors as it hasn’t before - and shouldn’t.
