Opinion:
What get's my goat is how the defenders of Mayor deBlasio can claim he has the best record on minimizing homicides in the city.
He gets bragging rights to 249 murders as of 10/6/19 compared to Former Mayor Giuliani at 649 murders ending 2001.
However if we lay out the chart more realistically.
Mayor Giuliani : term starting.......1994......1,927.......term ending 2001......649
Mayor DeBlasio : term starting ......2013......333..........as October 2019.......249
So this is the real picture:
The former mayor Giuliani dropping a high murder rate count by .........1,278
where Mayor deBalsio had dropped the murders down only by a paltry........84
The former Mayor Giuliani did a better job dropping the murder rate by 15X.
Much better than Mayor deBlasio ...Now that is a noteworthy accomplishment.
This is the big picture everybody misses or refuses to acknowledge and give credit.
Stop and Frisk worked back then when implemented. Why it has been removed is anybody's guess.
It is possible to drop it down to near zero but I have a bad feeling Mayor deBlasio will end his term with sad sad numbers.
