It was high enough that the Governor and Mayor got together and added 1200 more man hours dedicated to just policing NYC's mass transit system back in October. (NY Times article...easily found via Google).

This would be the same Governor saying it's a Republican conspiracy.

Yet many Democrats are saying a vote for a Republican is a vote to end democracy. THAT'S not fear-mongering?

Why hasn't Hochul done anything to eliminate that thing which Republicans use to scare people? She's been governor for 14 months.
Those same Democrats would absolutely crucify the next Bernard Goetz.

If soaring crime is not an issue, then that means we don’t need to be enacting all these gun control measures, right?

The Democrats are really backing themselves into a corner here.

To hear a dem say it... the act of having a democratic election is a "threat to democracy."


NO DEAREST... it IS democracy. Not a threat. It's the majority telling you to go pound sand. And you are going to lose your *** democratically (unless dominion can find a big enough magic wand).

So your two cousins not going out at night means you can just state that nobody in NYC goes out at night anymore, that sample set of two should definitely be applied to the other 9 million.

Well there you go, adding men to policing NYC mass transit means that the 22 metro track incidents over the first 300ish days of the year amounts to someone being pushed onto the tracks "almost daily" as you described.


Like I said, you're just spewing hyperbole. I'm not doubting there is an increase in NYC crime, but it is ironic how you accuse politicians of bending the truth while posting the drivel you posted to describe the situation there.
