I’m from NY and I’m ashamed of what a shyte-hole its become
I was young during the 1970s, but I remember crime then being about perversion, theft and crimes of passion. Society agreed these were bad.
Now its organized mobs (BLM riots), permanent bands of homeless, and racist crimes of black entitlement, along with all the rest. And it seems a large part of society and the NY governing class effectively support such crime as some kind of political statement.
“...the N.Y. governing class effectively support such crime as some sort of political statement.”
So true. Just look at the scum running for Prosecutor to replace Cyrus Vance. One says she will never support anyone being sent to jail, no matter what the crime, even rape or murder. Another says she will only prosecute crimes of “power or privilege,” not crimes of “poverty.”
And Sean Donovan (Obama’s former Housing Secretary), running for NYC Mayor, says he wants 3 billion taken from the Police Department budget and used for “social services.”
Nuts.
