What happened to NYC?

[Anonymous]

Just one of many things happening to NYC.

Apr 16, 2024 - NYC Now has a $4.4 billion shoplifting economy. Theft is so rampant, retailers are forced to make tough choices...

How old were you in 2005-2009, OP? My own sense of vulnerability and caution has changed dramatically in the last 15-20 years, especially since becoming a parent.

You just got older, OP. Nothing changed.

Who are the insane people allowing these thugs to walk free after violent assault? JFC. I have no sympathy for New Yorkers if this is the kind of lunatic they're actually voting for.

This won’t be happening if they had voted R for Mayor. Stupid Libs.

“Libs” are somehow responsible for Res states now? How do you explain the following stats?

*Note the bolded section before you waste your time (predictably) blaming democratic mayors of cities

The murder rate in the 25 states that voted for Donald Trump has exceeded the murder rate in the 25 states that voted for Joe Biden in every year from 2000 to 2020.

Over this 21-year span, this Red State murder gap has steadily widened from a low of 9% more per capita red state murders in 2003 and 2004 to 44% more per capita red state murders in 2019, before settling back to 43% in 2020.

Altogether, the per capita Red State murder rate was 23% higher than the Blue State murder rate when all 21 years were combined.

If Blue State murder rates were as high as Red State murder rates, Biden-voting states would have suffered over 45,000 more murders between 2000 and 2020.

Even when murders in the largest cities in red states are removed, overall murder rates in Trump-voting states were 12% higher than Biden-voting states across this 21-year period and were higher in 18 of the 21 years observed.

I don't want to be slashed in the face, pushed down hard on a concrete sidewalk or platform, get mugged and beaten, get dragged by someone stealing my car, get raped, maimed, etc. Murders are not the only crimes that matter.

Then don't come to NYC. Sh*t happens everywhere, but, per capita, this is one of the safest places to live.

With those types of crimes occurring frequently, NYC is not a safe place.
