“..if you let the small criminals off with a slap on the wrist, your big crimes increase...”

Or major criminals remain undetected & aren’t caught.

Ted Bundy was caught in a routine traffic stop. The cop’s instincts indicated Bundy’s story didn’t add up, & a search of the car revealed burglary tools, face mask, etc. ‘Nuff said.

But liberals decry stop & frisk as inherently “racist.” When based on probable cause (suspicious behavior) it’s a good thing.

Must be due to that NRA extremist de Blasio’s radical liberalization of New York City’s gun laws.

.... or maybe gun crime is a criminal problem rather than a gun problem.

According to NYPD crime data, in addition to the 59.6 percent spike in shootings over this time last year, robberies increased 32.8 percent and grand larceny auto crimes were up a whopping 62.8 percent.

Hey druggies are going to drug and crooks are going to crook, they can't help it, its our fault for not helping. Get used to it the Swedes have accepted that rape is a genuine part of Islamic culture, surely we can learn to accept a little drugging and crooking?

Democrats and Cuomo showed that if you let the small criminals off with a slap on the wrist, your big crimes increase...and the streets turn to feces.

Yes, the policy called 'break the windows'... makes criminals 'feel' comfortable... and citizens feel fear.

“...everything is fine. The crime reports are overblown by the “right Wing” media to damage NYC.”

Of course. When criminals are redefined as victims, the crime rate goes down because theft, assault, & property destruction are no longer considered crimes. but have been redefined as righteous responses to “oppression.”

Progressivism is anti human life in every way. It is dark and ugly.

I think that opening the prison doors was always one of the plot lines of the Batman villains. So would bloomberg be the joker or the penguin?

I was up in NYC prior to Christmas and the amounts of homeless people and filth in the streets was overwhelming! I couldn’t wait to get back to NC.

Those same people elected a stupid jerk as mayor, let them live with the results. Elections have consequences.

Early release programs throughout the country should be implemented, releasing the felons in NYC. Let A.K.A. De Blasio and Fredo's brother deal with that.

NYC will see in influx of criminal the same way Sanctuary gain in illegals. They wanted more population and they will get it.
