Crime and New York are in the minds of the public, almost interchangeable. Crime is rising to levels last seen in the 80s and 90s, however the politicians are in denial about this and parade statistics that attempt to gaslight us into thinking they have it all under control. I look at the true state of affairs in New York City, as well as rememeber how crime is also mainly a racial issue as well as a media perception maker that sells papers. Crime is mainly the predicatable outcome of all the failings of numerous New York City governments, with the solutions available if only politicians would be honest enough to admit there is a problem!
