National Guard on the subway is useless and a GIGANTIC overreaction

All people have endowed rights that some people want to take or deny. Governments were instituted among men to secure those rights. But governments were infiltrated by those people who wanted to take away or deny those endowed rights.
The End.

Isn't it crazy how the National Guard is sent on us but can't send them to the border? This is a foreshadow for bigger things but I digress.

The point is this city needs to be HARD on crime in general and the NYPD needs to stop neutering itself. Make any severe crime met with severe consequences. Get rid of bail reform, throw it out the window and forget it. Its done absolutely no good and only benefits the worse of the worse. NYPD needs to start cracking skulls, citizens shouldn't be punished for defending fellow passengers. The only way we get the crime down in this city is when the citizens start TAKING their city back and cops who actually care do what is right and moral and stop listening to chain of command. Its the only way, no other way.

Meet anarchy with anarchy?


The City is working on replacements for Rikers Island, borough based lock ups. Until then where can NYC Corrections keep prisoners?

This is correct. The police can arrest as many people as they want, but if the District Attorney won't prosecute them and the judge won't sentence them adequately, it doesn't matter what the police officers do.

And the whole thing about the National Guard checking bags doesn't make sense because the mentally ill person that pushes someone onto the tracks doesn't need and or have a bag.

It's a mental health crisis, compounded by DA's and judges who refuse to do their jobs. And the bail laws need to be returned to their pre-2020 stance.

The problems are easily identifiable, yet the elected officials aren't taking actions to solve these problems. They offer band-aids, but refuse to sew up the wound.
