More than 7 in 10 New Yorkers fear they will become a victim of violent crime, a distressing new poll has found—as famously progressive cities nationwide face a public safety reckoning under soft-on-crime Democrat lawmakers and prosecutors. About 76% of residents are “very concerned,” or somewhat concerned, they’ll be targeted amid the Big Apple’s ongoing crime wave, according to the Spectrum News NY1/Siena College poll released Tuesday. When asked “How concerned are you that a shooting in which a gunman targets people based on their race, religion or ethnicity will happen in your neighborhood,” almost half (43%) confessed that they are concerned.

New subway shove video. Just a few weeks ago Mayor Dude chided big bank and investment firm CEOs for not riding the subway, which is perfectly safe apart from the violent deranged criminals who hang out there.

But the DA is not concerned at all. He wants all criminals to be free to continue to rob, maim and kill without restrictions.

Keep voting radical leftists and you'll have more crime - stupid people deserve stupid politicians.

Well schmoe did say he wanted to use “relentless, relentless” (you know how good he is with using emphasis when he speaks) immigration to make white people a minority. To him no doubt Asians are included in that group- test scores too high, work too hard etc; the meritocracy has not yet been completely “fundamentally transformed” into a political rewards system.
A few persistent murders speed the process.

I lived in Manhattan almost a decade—wonderful place, under Rudy and Bloomberg. I lived in the area (Staten Island and Nassau County) another 20 years. Retired to Florida.
I used to love visiting the city, taking in a show, great restaurants, beautiful sights, etc.
Now I wouldn’t be caught dead doing that. And mostly it’s because I might get caught and end up dead.
It is a monstrous crime what those Democrats have done to the “Wonderful Town” Sinatra and the boys sang about.

FTA:Only 29% of those polled rated Adams’ overall performance as mayor as good or excellent, while 64% said he is doing fairly or poorly.
Those are pretty bad numbers after just a few months. New Yorkers won't admit it, but they want criminals throw up against the wall, handcuffed, hauled way to jail, and not let loose again.

After the Supreme Court removes a bunch of NYC and NY state antigun laws, coming in the next three weeks, I predict an explosion in gun sales in NYC and NY state. Depending on the ruling, they may have a new objective standards concealed carry law coming there, too.
Dem brains will be EXPLODING. Hit with NYC having fewer gun restrictions, and probably more available concealed carry permits, and then Roe v. Wade being overturned....their tantrums will be unending.
Sounds like a fun 4th of July this year!

Gee Wally- maybe voting for liberals for a century and a half has something to do with it.

Noo Yawkers could have elected Curtis Sliwa as their new mayor. He founded the Guardian Angels citizens safety patrols in the 1970s, when crime was out of control. He did a lot to make the city safer and he knows this stuff inside and out. But why vote for him when crime is out of control there's a grinning black guy in a sharp suit running against him?

My new next door neighbor just moved to Florida from New York. Can't imagine why he and his wife left Fun City. It's only insomnia. Many must have it.

But 7 out of 10 will vote Democrat the next time they go to the polls. What was the definition of insanity again?

They wanted a dapper dude in a fancy suit and the biggest grin you ever did see, and that's exactly what they got. And specifically which racial group is committing these race-based attacks that they're so concerned about? Not allowed to say, although the crime scene photos tell the tale every time. Includes a photo of the most recent "random" subway shove, in which as usual the race of the Asian or White victim is sanitized for our protection.
