I know people who are from Brooklyn and Queens and they are so proud how being from there. They wear it on their sleeve 24/7. I never understood it.

It’s funny how much lower the crime rate is in NYC than in other cities its size, and far lower than rural areas. If NYC were a state, it would have the 42nd highest rate of violent crime of any state in the nation.

Do they give tour bus rides through inner cities in bullet proof bases where the occupants can watch out their bullet scarred wi does gangs shooting it out every fee blocks? Watch as stores get emptied by theives? Watch cars burning in the middle of the road? Watch teenage thugs gang smack elderly women who are trying to cross the road?

All the chick on the view are angry because they have to apply their make-up with a trowel.

NYC is simply too dangerous to visit.

I guess prospective NYC tourists are starting to understand that the “knockout game” is not really a game at all.

New Yorkers display a special brand of narcissism. They think revelling in squalor makes them special.

Whenever I have a meeting in NYC, I go in and leave right after. In times past, I would be there all night.

Because when you're holding onto nothing, that nothing is everything.

I understand the sentiment.

Many people have civic pride about their hometowns.

And especially for older folks, they are thinking of how Brooklyn and Queens were in the past, not the way those places are today.

Crime is absolutely spreading from the cities to the suburbs.
I have to believe a lot of people are alarmed by this and it will help elect Trump.
