Reply to comment by [deleted] in Search for arsonist in burning of Pride flag at SoHo restaurant by BraveSirZaphod

She's not spending any time in prison at all...

Unfortunately NYC has become wayyy too lenient on crime we have repeat offenders of violent crimes let back out on the streets with no bail or anything.

Crackheads , drug dealers, violence, hate crimes everything has been getting worse as a result.

I just want to make sure you understand that crime rose nationally since the onset of the pandemic and in states that you wouldn’t say were lenient on crime. You understand this right?

Murder highest in death penalty states.

Violent crime rates did fall overall last year.

You understand this and aren’t saying NYC is unique in the US right?

Lmaoo who is my friend?? I'm not siding with her , I was simply pointing out that even if she is arrested the DA will throw out the case.

I live in NYC and the crime has been through the roof because of bail reform and new laws in place.

Next time read carefully so you can understand before feeling offended.

How am I an embarrassment? Please explain.

All I did was point out facts. Plus this happened in NYC so not understanding your point.

Anyways sorry you feel offended, have an amazing day !

That's not a fact. That's an embarrassing attempt at trolling.

Who's trolling? You obviously don't live in NYC because those law changes directly led to higher crame rates , including violent crimes.

A man was killed because someone who was arrested 15+ times ( including stabbing someone ) suffered little to no consequences and was free to then steal a U-Haul go on a rampage.

I would love for the arsonist to be arrested and charged correctly but the way things have been that is not likely. I am simply pointing these things out. Once again sorry if I offended anyone 💙

Much love to all my LGBT friends, be safe.

Ahh, yes, NYC is now responsible for crime taking place in Nevada. . . Like I said, embarrassing attempt at trolling.

Okay I'll admit it wasn't the best example however my point still stands.

Those new laws including bail reform lead to a rise in crime. This is also evident in cities like Chicago.

I'm not trolling, I live here and see horrible things everyday.
