New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) has responded to the mounting criticism about how unsafe and violent New York City’s subway has gotten, saying the recent “surge” in crimes on the transit system “cannot continue.”
Touting her deployment of 1,000 National Guard members to patrol the subway and the installation of cameras in every subway car, Hochul said her methods are “helping police solve crimes even faster,” according to a Friday statement from her office.
“The recent surge in violent crimes in our public transit system cannot continue — and we need to tackle this crisis head-on,” the governor began. “Many of these horrific incidents have involved people with serious untreated mental illness, the result of a failure to get treatment to people who are living on the streets and are disconnected from our mental health care system.”

Solving crimes faster doesn’t help the guy under the train.
Rudy made the subways safe. It can be done again, it’s simply a matter of will.

the result of a failure to get treatment to people who are living on the streets and are disconnected from our mental health care system.” Yeah, Kathy. That's the ticket. More social workers and mental health professionals will stop illegals from burning people to death on the subway platforms.

“Many of these horrific incidents have involved people with serious untreated mental illness" She fails to grasp who the actual victims are.

“”This is the sort of bloody nonsense up with which I will not put.””
Per Winston Churchill quote...supposedly! Hochul could adopt it as her own.

“Cannot continue.” Your policies cannot continue. You allowed it to happen.

Why can’t the crime surge continue, Hochul and her administration has done nothing to stop it, heck not even putting the criminals back on the streets has stopped it.
To: Paladin2
Better yet, allow CCW in NYC. People need to be able to protect themselves.
