NYC is completely safe. Don’t let a little stabbing ruin the narrative. Just avoid certain neighborhoods, don’t ride the subway too late, stay hyper-aware, don’t wear headphones, don’t make eye contact, and keep checking Citizen every five minutes. See? Totally normal. If you’re concerned, someone will remind you crime was worse in the ’70s, so apparently that settles it. Nothing screams “safe city” quite like planning your route around the latest violent incident.
Mahmdani and hochul will claim its fine

I miss Giuliani. He had that area safe for some time. Everything went downhill fast, after Diblasio.
We need to stop having all this hate in our heart. Does it really matter what’s their race? We are all still human? Smh
