Part of me thinks about what would happen if more people started conceal-carrying. I'm wondering what effect that might have. Some of these criminals are so far gone, that only violence itself would stop them.
I have been watching videos of store/street cams where they show CC defending and getting out of random muggings and robberies, but they do not represent the norm.
I don't see NYC encouraging anything like that. People get in trouble defending themselves even without guns.
They're so afraid of 'getting tough' and serious. Afraid of poll numbers or losing votes.
40+ catch and releases on the same dude? c'mon man.
Are they doing this on purpose? This is how you get a Trump. When someone comes along and starts speaking the rhetoric that's been pent up, and people are tired of others ignoring the obvious, you get one issue voters backing them.

What a freakin' weasel.
How about ENFORCING laws and giving out tough sentences to violent repeat offenders.
Years and years, people shout about enforcing the laws we already have. This goes for a lot of things.
But I dunno,..they got some marketing wiz telling them making "new" laws does better for your image or polls. Shiny New! Yay! That ultimately falls short after all the money$ they allocated to the 'new' stuff is gobbled up into the ether.
it's 75%. an Asian woman did the research herself about her own community, because she saw that the narrative that black people the face of the attacks didn't seem correct to her. Of course people here, don't want to admit it but its true. People only focus on the few times black people do something, because narratives.
Systematic analysis of media reports of contemporary anti-Asian incidents by the
University of Michigan Virulent Hate Project shows that the majority of
perpetrators are identified as male and white in upwards of 75% of news stories
when the perpetrator’s race is known in physical or verbal assaults/harassment
So...
1) Don't report race of offender unless they are white.
2) Do analysis against this reported data.
3) Get desired conclusion!

Always these released violent criminals. Always with a long rap sheet and always caught and released to do it again.
We Need Tougher consequences.
Some of these people need to die during a struggle during the arrest.

Sadly this is what it boils down to.
Well there are Jews also, but that hatred started in the late 1960's with the Teacher's Strike. Wait, isn't almost everyone a minority?

I agree. We don't need new laws. The laws available need to be enforced better. Tough sentences are needed to. I would also advise that New York State (as well as NYC) make it easier to carry a concealed weapon. Being able to defend one's self is important.

New York City needs to encourage more CC. I'm thinking if more people do that, more people can defend themselves. I also think a bigger problem is that defending one's self can get someone in trouble. This is something many criminals know. The average criminal is ready for prison or an early death at the hands of another criminal. Not an early death at the hands of the average, law-abiding citizen. Even then, many criminals don't care.
In addition to getting rid of that "catch and release" way of doing things, something else need to be considered. We have a big mental health issue in this country. We need to address that.
Getting tough on crime is not a hard thing to do. Preventing people from gravitating into a life of crime is hard. That too needs to be looked at.
