“The NYC experience is going to be a cautionary tale.”

I am thanking God I don’t live there. It’s going to be yet another epic failure social experiment. Then after....the State of NY and the NYC will beg for a federal Bailout.

The road to Hell will be paved with good intentions... Maybe this sounds good on paper to liberals, but the implementation will be rocky. How long will it be before the new social first responders begin asking to be armed in order to protect themselves? Of course, they will also need arrest powers as the future NYPD will not have the manpower to assist them due to budget cuts. I don’t see this working out well. We only need to look at pre-WWII Germany for the template.

Whole thing sounds like a load of Mamdani crap to me. Don’t like the direction this seems to be heading. I still think it is good advice for NYC dwellers to move away from there soon as possible.
