Yes, that is exactly being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Still, statistically you are a hell of a lot more likely to die in a car accident in the burbs than get randomly shot in the city. People are such wimps. “Oh no! Someone got attacked the other day in a city of 8million people! It’s like the 70s all over!”. Lol. Wrong!
You are even less likely to be shot by the police but yet I know you Leftists wouldn’t trivialize that like you want everyone to do with street crime.

Back to politics again? Don’t you have anything better to do than worry about left and right, blah blah blah? I happen to be a moderate. I lean left with social issues such as abortion and right with economic issues. I truly feel bad for you far right and far left wing nut jobs always so angry. Life is short. Get a hobby.
I always lol at people saying we are going back to the bad days of the 70s, etc. Crime is still WAY down from the old days. We are still, by far, the safest large city in the country.
Don’t be such wimps. Watch your back and don’t stand on the edge of the subway platform. Use your street smarts. This lady was at the wrong place at the wrong time. But the odds are you’ll be just fine.
Safest city is when you look at the overall stats. NYC's crime stat greatly varies depends on where and who you are. If you are older women you are likely to be assaulted, robbed, and even raped. If you are a white male including hispanics 40-60 you are more than likely to be assaulted, robbed. If you are a black male 10-30 you are more likely to be shot and killed by gunfire than any other race. So this all depends which stat applies to you.

I feel like he made a fair point based on percentages. Just like your point referenced and was a fair point. Except you said his point is political.
I’m sure you’ll say he called you a leftist and assumed. But you did state you lean left with social issues.

This is besides the point. I specifically mentioned the city as a whole. I read posts here saying "the city is going back to the 70s", they also are not calling out specific neighborhoods and backgrounds. Lets get real here.

I stated I'm a moderate. I lean left when it comes to social issues like abortion. I don't give a crap if you abort your child that will likely end up on food stamps or in a gang. I lean right when it comes to economic issues. I like low taxes and less regulation. He tried to call me a "leftist" and he was wrong.
Exactly. Just like that cop who was an obvious murderer to George Floyd but there is no evidence the guy was a an actual racist. Why was it automatically assumed he was, I do wonder.
Because he strangled a black man. I take that as strong evidence of racism.
What do you consider as evidence of racism if not murder? Torture, cannibalism?
I tried to explain to some liberal women but they're just too brainwashed to understand what liberals are doing the last few years erased nearly decades of racial improvements in this country.
More laws implemented to help minorities push by liberals has had both a positive and negative effect. Now they just want full on privilege and not equality anymore.
Anybody knows these unprovoked attacks are racially motivated and the criminals themselves know they can game the system because so many advantages are given to them by the liberals the last few years to let them get away with it.
How many times we let criminals get away because the skin of their color these days. It fuels more racism.

Prove that he wouldn't have done the same if the guy was white.
Or provide the tape where he mentioned Floyd's race as evidence of his racist motivation.
According to your logic, every crime committed by one race against another is racist.
