That's true but as of today no evidence anyone was assaulted. Except Jordan NeelyI'm like 20 planets to the left of AOC and I'm convinced there is absolutely no way this case ends in a conviction.
If there was tons of evidence against Kyle Rittenhouse, and he went free.. so don't get your hopes up.
Because people tend to send statements in a case like this and we're sick of people assaulting us in subways and getting away with it. I'd probably vote for his acquittal too.
Neely didn’t assault anyone. Also, crime in the NYC subway system is lower than it was in 2019, albeit with lower ridership.I'm like 20 planets to the left of AOC and I'm convinced there is absolutely no way this case ends in a conviction.

When I read things about how people in New York want to acquit this guy because of out of control subway crime my first question is ‘do you ride it?’. It’s just totally divorced from reality.
I guess it’s similar to how people from the south and Midwest think NYC is some crime ridden dystopia despite it being one of the safest big cities in the country.
Yeah it was funny to see DeSantis come up to NYC to complain about crime. If NYC had crime rates even remotely approaching those of Florida cities it would be considered a national emergency. For example Jacksonville has a murder rate that is almost quadruple NYC's. Orlando is nearly triple NYC. Memphis, TN is about 900% higher than NYC, etc.Or people in South Dakota complaining about the border being overrun as their #1 issue.

1) This is totally out of touch with reality. How many days a week do you ride it? I ride it 6-7 days a week and have never experienced anything like that. Moreover, the stats don't lie - subway crime is lower now that it has been for most of your life.Ofcourse I ride it.
Have riden it everyday since the day I started going to Hunter College and then got a job in the City.
Now lately after the crime being out of control.. I personally prefer to go to long island when ever possible but still occasionally have to go to Apicha for medical appointments.
Don't look forward to it. On my last visit.. 1 guy just sat down on a seat on the A train and the black dude behind him got up and just started bashing his skull in without a word.
Not 1 person stopped the guy, most just tried to run the fuck away. I for one am grateful someone showed the criminals they're not invulnerable.
Heck you go to wallgreens and you see thugs just stealing stuff and the police come but they say they can't charge anyone with a crime since it didn't amount to $1000 theft, which is the minimum for the DA to prosecute.
I thought really long and hard about voting for Zeldin last time around because of that but I knew I couldn't support Trump. So I'll just support vigilantes as a juror if I get called!
And my entire neighborhood thinks similarly.. we want our freedoms and rights, but they sure as hell didn't move to America to bring the lawlessness they left behind here because some lame DA won't enforce the law.
Murder is a problem anywhere it occurs but if we're just looking at the bad parts of town then Florida murder rates are going to soar even higher.Murder is a problem in the bronx and brooklyn.
The problem in the safer parts of town is just general lawlessness and robberies and people dirt biking and ATV's stopping roads everywhere. The cops do nothing!
What crime did Neely commit on the subway besides annoy people and display erratic behavior?I for one am grateful someone showed the criminals they're not invulnerable.

2) As far as your neighborhood thinking similarly, what neighborhood is that?
3) If the police told you that they can't charge anyone with a crime for a theft of less than $1,000 they were lying to you - people are routinely arrested and charged for this. What IS true is that a much lower percentage of thefts lead to arrests now than before but that's because the NYPD has chosen to stop doing their jobs. Don't you think you should be mad at them for lying and refusing to do their jobs?

Let's support the cops not doing their jobs because they lack character and decency by voting in literal pieces of shit like Zeldin that will let them get away with murder and be the corrupt cops they want to be. What a position to hold.
[/QUOTE]1. I doubt it.. was horrible pre-91 broken windows..
stayed good/ acceptably good till covid, then out of control.
Is it getting better with every week? Probably but you just hope you don't run into a mentally unstable person.
Doesn't it bother you that the NYPD is lying to citizens about not being able to arrest or charge people for thefts of less than $1,000, and apparently blaming it on the DA? The problem is the NYPD is out of control.2. Queens near the E train
3. Of course I'm mad at them, not only terrorizing the employees but that's why every department store is marking up prices so I end up having to pay way more to compensate for their robberies..
Subway crime is substantially lower today than it was in 2012. Did you consider 2012 to have out of control crime?

The crime in NYC is uncontrolled? Sounds like Fox News talking. Where are the videos of this total anarchy 24/7?
The Bronx definitely has a higher crime rate than the rest of NYC but it's still about half that of Jacksonville. Also, 2012 was just one year, crime in the subway today is lower than basically all the 2010s.2012 especially after Sandy was a horrible time to ride the subways. You could smell poop on the subways as people didn't have homes.. so you understood it would take time for the City to go back to normal.
And yes I am upset, but at least I did my part and voted for Katz last year to improve things instead of Tiffany Caban.
BTW the TV propaganda is one thing.. trying to make it seem the migrant mess is a real mess and it may be but people tend to be a little more affected by what they encounter in real life.
If you take a different subway route than me.. you might have a totally different viewpoint.
FFS someone living in the bronx would say its totally safe and I look at the murder and shooting rates and say I don't even wanna go to Yankee Stadium anymore.
As for me, I don't upload videos but maybe I should.. just went to get pizza 2 nights ago with my wife and a car ran red lights ignoring the flow of traffic. Actually have that on my dash cam.
Then other people jaywalking as we're driving basically daring people to hit them with their car.
Twitter account posting video's is where I would go if I wanted an accurate account of the crime rate.CrimeinNYC is a good twitter account that posts stuff that other people send in.. RW account though but the videos are authentic.

Seriously dude, just stop. You are being sucked in by propaganda.
We learned from the Gym Jordan attack hearings on Alvin Bragg NYC is one of the safest big cities.Not propaganda when twitter posts a video and then days later news sites cover it..
82-year-old Sikh man assaulted, robbed on Queens street
The 82-year-old victim was walking down the street when two men approached and punched him repeatedly, causing him to fall to the sidewalk.abc7ny.com
The hard thing is sometimes actually acknowleding some of the twitter stuff is REAL and not just propaganda.
I'm in 100% agreement with you, that most of those videos are bullshit but there's enough reality there.. that I just can't ignore it anymore especially when it is LOCAL.
Penny being a trained Marine should have been the LAST person in the car who felt his life was being threatened by Neely.
If Jordan Neely put his hands on Penny or physically attacked him in some way my opinion would be different.
