As long as we're not treating the problems they will continue to persist. The below link is a list of mass shootings in this country from 1984-2012. Now go through every incident on this list, and come back and tell me jail prevents this with a straight face. Clearly its not.

Citizens Crime Commission of New York City - Mass Shooting Incidents in America (1984-2012)
Do you support the release and treatment of all the people sitting in jail for January 6? Do you support the release and treatment of Dylann Roof?

Know there was a remake in 2009, but original is still the best.

Being a native Staten Islander, 1-2-3 were my trains, in particular #1 local because it went to South Ferry. My old man and others told me as a kid about the speed control on old South Ferry loop.

Thing about old ferry loop was only first five subway cars fit. So there was an announcements made starting usually after pulling out of Chambers that all passengers wishing to get off at South Ferry had to move up into first five cars.

The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974 film), a film adaptation directed by Joseph Sargent and starring Walter Matthau and Robert Shaw

The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1998 film), a television movie directed by Félix Enríquez Alcalá and starring Edward James Olmos and Vincent D'Onofrio

The Taking of Pelham 123 (2009 film), a film adaptation directed by Tony Scott and starring Denzel Washington and John Travolta

Of the three I agree the original is the best

Thrill of riding NYC subways back in 1970's through 1980's was never knowing if you'd get out with all your possessions. Next was if you actually reached your destination via train of choice on its particular route.

Trains were always being pulled out of service for problems like broken doors or something. Then there were the ever common track fires forcing service to stop, or train being rerouted.

I for one support them calling out the full description of the person in every case.

Pointless to respond. He's arguing in bad faith.

The MAIN reason he argues the way he does is because the problem comes from his community and he doesn't want admit there's a problem for political reasons and reason of self pity having to do with failure/lack of contentment in life. If whites or Asians were were the source of killing in NYC, he wouldn't be making this argument.

It's not even an original argument. It's an argument that is so utterly ridiculous that no one buys it except for cynical politicians, race hustlers, and people in these communities that are used by the former two groups.

Would any person even halfway successful in life in NYC make the argument he's making (unless they make money off of it like the race hustlers and woke culture peddlers)? Only the losers in the city make these arguments because they want others to experience their failures. It's schadenfraude.
