NYC's Greenwich Village taken over by crime, anarchy
Fox News ^ | June 18,2021 | By Stephanie Pagones

New York City’s Greenwich Village is home to movie stars and other big-name celebrities – and lately, a host of crime and violence issues both inside a local park and on the neighborhood’s streets.

Just Wednesday, the New York Police Department (NYPD) announced it was looking for a man who broke into a Greenwich Village apartment and rubbed his penis on a 10-year-old girl’s feet.

The man is believed to have slipped into the apartment through a fire escape around 1 a.m. on June 11, police said. The girl awoke to find the man standing at the edge of her bed.

Police said he fled from the apartment shortly thereafter through the front door and was later seen riding a bicycle.

But Greenwich Village, which is also home to New York University and The New School’s main campus, had been making headlines even before last week’s sick crime, particularly in the neighborhood’s beloved Washington Square Park.

The park is located between University Place and Washington Square West and is famous for its circular meeting spot at the center. But recent reports of anarchy and crime, including violence, partying and drug use, have caused some local residents to grow concerned.

Call the White House and ask his dad where he was last seen. :)

”…have caused some local residents to grow concerned.”

If they’re so concerned, why don’t they STOP VOTING FOR WACKY LEFTIST in state and local elections?

I have friends that are aging hippies of the counter-culture days; musicians and actors living in The West Village. Time and experience has wizened them up, as often happens. They’re some of the most conservative, God-fearing people I know, but still great fun to visit with!

then how do they handle the constant assault on common sense, decency, morality and one's finances that comes with living in a woke, leftist swamp?
