Reply to comment by WickhamAkimbo in NYC murders, shootings and subway crime dropped in February, continuing the downward trend: NYPD by Darrkman
That tends to happen once the election year is over and the papers aren't highlighting every other crime to ask potential candidates exactly what they're going to do about it.

Ethnicity from appearance is subjective, especially in an NYC context. He could be Dominican or Puerto Rican or even Samoan and not identify as black.

Yah. All the I’m sure they have a specific task quotes still doesn’t help convey the image of “hard work” when they can’t do anything on time or on budget. How does it go… If you want it cheap and fast it won’t be good. If you want it cheap and good it won’t be fast. If you want it fast and good it wont be cheap.

Let me indulge you - why bother describing the clothes he was wearing (also in the picture) when that’s something that can change? What is the author’s motivation with their description here? It doesn’t seem like their motivation is to be as helpful as they can be - seems like something else has hijacked their thought process.

Interesting idea. I'm sure that there evidence that lax gun regulations are associated with lower rates of forcible rape. Let's compare Texas to NY.

Holy shit, Texas has nearly twice the per capita forcible rape incidents as liberal gun grabbing NY state. Maybe arming everyone isn't the answer.

I hope I don't have to find out but I've seen fire arms escalate situations also I think you only pull it out when it's time to shoot.

From my experience 90% of people or so run at the sight of a weapon even when they have numbers.

The issue would be the ties. Continuous rail is all over the world in all sorts of climates undergoing freeze thaw cycles without issue. But on the NE corridor Amtrak lines for example they had to relayre-lay rail bed and replace ties with concrete to install it. Idk if that was just overlapping upgrades or if one required the other

Not saying that nothing good came of it. It takes a long time and many weekends of no service. By the time they fix the tracks, they will probably need to replace the signals. Then they will need to replace the tracks. ad infinitum.

His face is right in the picture. You want the text of his skin color on the message I guess if thats what you mean by ethnicity.

There's a picture there - can you tell exactly what his ethnicity is from the surveillance video?

Idk I live in Georgia were we have full constitutional carry. I have 3 fire arms in my closet. I'm a guy though so I'm not too worried about someone following me into my apartment and raping me but my point is I've never killed anyone or even shot anyone.

I've been here my whole life. I proposed a solution. Everyone else disagreed without offering an alternative.

I honestly wonder if at some point civilians are gonna have enough and go after these guys themselves if they’ve been identified. I’m not advocating vigilantism or mob violence, but at some point people break. Maybe that’ll never happen, but stranger things have.

Only reason covid killed a lot of cops is they were always the worst maskers around.

Right. Welcome to New York enjoy your 4k a month studio you're working 80 hour weeks to afford also the crime is really bad and we will do very little to deter or prevent it in fact we will release most of them the very same day no legal fire arms though sorry.

Wait wtf is this for real? Barely 1 in 20 people arrested on a felony charge are convicted? What the fuck is this? Either the police are making a shit ton of unjustified arrests or our entire judiciary needs to be fired and start from scratch.

Amazing that they don’t even state the ethnicity any more…
They care more about political correctness than giving a clear description of a violent rapist…

Wait? Which lines you have to wait 20 minutes during rush hour ? Even on Saturday afternoons and evenings (not weekday rush hour) usually the most I have to wait is 10 min. And the few times I’ve used them during weekdays is 3-4 minutes. Granted, before the pandemic rush hour was probably every 2 minutes .
The lines I usually tend to take when I’m in nyc are 1,2,3 and A,C. And occasionally the E.
