But your link says the cops help drive it down with gun arrests. But prior you said they did nothing. And one month vs a month last year is pointless.
I said who did nothing?
Nydailynews for the month you stated has it as “Still, almost every other major crime category increased in August — continuing an alarming trend so far this year — according to NYPD stats. The Police Department classifies murder, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, grand larceny and car theft as major crimes.” “Overall, those categories increased by 26% with five of the seven major crimes seeing upticks, cops said.”
Why are we debating when you don't even know WHO you're debating with. I am not NYdailynews.
Gun arrests going up in your link doesn’t concern you at all? And shootings are usually targets. Many other crimes to be victim off. What about increase in rape? No big deal?
Nydailynews said alarming. Not us.
Your link proves media manipulation. They chose one month of a crime drop in one category while you ignore at the bottom of it is the overall increase.
Which link? The one from the NYPD - the department that is collecting the data? They are not the media.
Maybe for your next post pick a week when it was raining out this year vs last. That will cause a nice headline crime drop for you.
Still waiting on your stats that says that crime has gone up. The worse type of critic is the one who provides no information but is quick to criticize others. Carry on...
You wanted a media outlet besides nypost about crime increasing. I provided one like you asked speaking about crime going up in regards to you saying prove it.
You said nothing was done when you agreed with a post 100 percent.

They don’t have the stats apparently what people are doing now is counting what their eyes see as “stats”
They don’t want to believe it which is weird. people are complaining about crime but when faced with stats that crime is down they are mad. They WANT more crime- why? No idea

Was the nypd link about crime in other areas up dismissed ? Honestly what do those numbers mean to you? Serious question.
These are the numbers. Over the past 2 years major crime is up 34 percent
The way crime stats are reported - which are most definitely UP - they can choose one segment, compare it to an amendable segment and BAM! crime is down.
I was a compstat cop over a decade ago. I know the game.
It’s sad. As I said, leave. These are the majority of voters. Remember someone who used to post here often who blamed it all on cameras?
Psssttt… i have it on good authority that the PC is about to leave for this reason. She doesn’t like the politics and lies. She’s more competent than they allow her to be. Sound familiar?
Do you reside on Martha’s Vineyard ? How’s the housing crisis your suffering from?
