Where's the Mayor? Where's the Governor? Once again the Democrat leaders fail to lead.
It’s Up To You, NY: City Hits All-Time Record For Shootings As City Spirals Into Darkness
New York city is hitting new lows on an almost daily basis. With the city having more homeless people in decades and the general looks of the city remind many of the grimy and slimy 70s in New York.
Bill DeBlasio has cut budgets for so many important departments that serve the city such as sanitation and police precincts all over the City.
City funding for the NYPD is projected to decline by $282 million from $10.5 billion to $10.2 billion between fiscal years 2020 and 2021. The operating budget will decrease by $345 million, or 6.6 percent, from $5.2 billion in fiscal year 2020 to $4.9 billion in fiscal year 2021.
These huge budget cuts for the NYPD already have affects on the rising crime in the city. The city surpassed 1,000 shootings for the year on Sunday, according to NYPD data, which also shows an average of nearly 10 people fell victim to gun violence each day over the last four weeks.
With four more months left in 2020, New York City logged 1,004 shootings as of Aug. 30, according to NYPD data released Monday. Last year, there had been just 537 by that time.
It is the first time the city has eclipsed the benchmark in gun violence since 2015, when 1,138 shootings were
recorded for the entire year. 1,138 for the whole year of 2015, at this rate we are going to surpass that number possibly by much.
The constant defunding of the police in the city is definitely not helping these numbers.
‘Defund police’ protesters have concrete proof that it is not the solution yet refuse to listen to facts and rather stick to their narrative.
