Another example of Biden/Harris America. When criminals face no consequences for crime, they naturally progress to more violent crimes in hopes nothing of consequence comes from it.

And considering NYC has a buffoon of a Mayor who is under FBI investigation overseeing this chit show none of us are surprised at this increase in murder on subways

-------------------------------------


Murders across New York City's subway system have surged by a shocking 60% so far this year, even as overall crime on the rails has dipped, leaving straphangers increasingly terrified for their safety.

According to NYPD data, eight people have been slaughtered on subway cars or in stations as of September 8, up from just five during the same period last year. The surge in killings is closing in on the 25-year high set in 2022, which saw ten murders in the transit system—a grim milestone unseen since 1997. For over two decades, from 1997 to 2020, the city never recorded more than five subway murders in a single year, the NY Post reports.

"It’s not a safe environment to be waiting for the train," said Jakeba Dockery, 42, whose husband, Richard Henderson, was fatally gunned down in January on a 3 train in Brooklyn while trying to break up a fight between riders over loud music. "It just feels evil," she told The Post.

Maybe Crooked donnie trump will get it all cleaned up. If he's not in prison after his felony sentencing hearing.:geek:(y)
 
The number of subway murders rose from 5 to 8. Crime spike!

Well your attempt at minimizing the deaths didn't go the way you hoped. (y)
Well, your attempt to magnify the number of deaths by posting the percentage of increase was laughed at.

The sample size is too small to derive statistical inference. I suspect you know this.
 
If Zerohedge was gas that could be inhaled, you'd find a way to vape it.
 
Approximately 3.2 million New Yorkers ride their subways every.single.day.


The fact that only 8 have died in a year is an amazing testament to how safe NYC is.

I’m sad the number is up from 5…but man. Way to go NYC transit police and NY police in general.
 
Lie. Overall, crime is down - it is near 30 year lows.

Maybe try being proud of your country instead of trying to tear it down while buying into bullshit fear-mongering.
 
The rate of one specific crime in one specific type of place in one specific city over one cherry-picked period, presented as a measure of nationwide crime of all types over four years and as a prediction of all crimes in the next 4 years?

Herping ****in' derp, @VySky, that's dumber than just as dumb as usual.
 
Isn't the new york subway the most used in the country?
Considering how many people use it i'd say it's most likely one of the safer places in the city.

A bit of subway trivia. NYC has 25 different subway lines labeled 1-7 and A-G, J, L, M,N, Q, R-S-T, U & W + some expresses that share numbers. In terms of daily human traffic, the number 6 Line alone carries more passengers than all the other subway systems in the country combined!

I've ridden the NYC subway, any day of the year, every hour of the day, through every borough, and don't recall ever being concerned with my personal safety.
 
Another Mycroft DOA thread topic.

Murder rates have been coming down in NYC.

2020 468 murders.
2023 391 murders.
