hey, anything that reduces the pressure of too much growth is a good thing. let the outside world think "NYC is going to hell" and maybe they'll leave the city alone long enough to let it recover some quality of life.
Those stats are not made up...the decrease in crime rate is probably due in part to the extremely cold weather..and that NYC is becoming SAFER not more dangerous.
The numbers are as fake as a tag watch in chinatown. I don't think 70s crime will return but I think 1992 is right around the corner. You cannot reduce the number of cops in the city and reduce crime at the same time. But you can fake the numbers all day long. Wait until the temps get in the 90s. Crime is going to be off the hook this year.

Since 2005 it has become more dangerous and with the recession crime in the summer will be out of control. Currently it is at at 1995-1996 level of crime.
Those stats are cooked theyre have been 43 murders this year ive been told by my friend who is a high ranking nypd official
Oh sure. Must believe you. Maybe last years was cooked and it was 63 or 73 or whatever higher murders. Who to believe? Someone on the internet or the official stats?

Mod cut: personal attackIt wasnt cooked in 63 or 73 because no other departments had falling crime and they nypd had no reason to make itself look good especially when during that time period crime was very noticably increasing in nyc. The stats have been cooked on a city wide level since 1995 as told to me by as of now 2 different nypd officials.
