Shootings are surging this week in New York City, with 28 incidents and 38 victims reported since Monday — the day the NYPD disbanded its plainclothes anti-crime unit, The Post learned on Friday.

By comparison, the same week last year there were only 12 shootings for the entire week.

In the most recent reported shooting, at 4 p.m. Friday in East New York, Brooklyn, a 27-year-old man died of multiple gunshot wounds to his t

A 17-year-old boy who was also shot there was in stable condition, police said.

“This is what the politicians wanted — no bail, nobody in Rikers, cops not arresting anyone,” one angry law enforcement source said Friday.

There have been 97 shootings this month so far, compared to 89 for the whole month of June last year.

Any conservative left in that state or the north east needs to get out and move IMHO. Go to a swing state just south or west of there.
Same goes for those on the west coast get to AZ, NM etc

I wonder how Cuomo will spin this one. Oh I know. He will probably blame Pres. Trump somehow.

Cops know that if someone is shot and no arrest is made with a prolonged confinement off the street, it is almost certain that there will be retaliatory shootings. In fact cops have asked friendly ER doctors to admit as inpatients victims who really don’t require hospitalization to get them off the streets. That would give them time to arrest and get the shooters in jail. They almost always knew who they were and where they were. It was good police peacekeeping. Now with the hostility toward police, woke DAs that won’t prosecute, immediate release by Judges, the cops will not risk their lives to police and support the law. Many innocent minorities will die in the crossfire. As of now cops don’t even want to accompany the coroners to pick up bodies much less investigate the crimes.

if they voted for it, or failed to vote against it, they're not entirely innocent

This is unexpected. Who would have guessed that choosing not to enforce the law would lead to more murders?

I hear there are websites now detailing where rich liberals with poor security live.

The ‘HeyDays’ for criminals are just starting.

Best if the Libtards suffer for their Folly the most, and innocent people the least. (The leftists, of course, dont care.)
