The good thing is that you’re very unlikely to get physically assaulted by someone who uses the city’s tennis courts, even if you dare them.

We’ll probably see that happening at some point, but my understanding is the stock of buildings where this would be feasible is relatively small.

Is Eric Adams still “mulling” legal action?

My understanding is that Texas sent the most migrants by a huge margin. The other states don’t amount to much in total. I could have said “other states” and the point would still be true—and the point is that shitty reporting appears to have created a widespread belief that all (or even most) of the migrants that have come to NYC were sent by red state governors. I’ve seen no evidence in any data that that’s true, and the data I’ve seen about how many Texas sent makes clear that it’s not true.

Migrants have been arriving steadily since May. By September about 11k had already arrived.

That doesn’t say how many of the 21k were bused from other cities.
This is from September, but note the large gap between the reported total number of migrants who had arrived in NYC (11k) and those who were bused from Texas (2.5k).
The point being, most of the migrants who have come to NYC this year were not bused from Texas. They came here through other paths.
Edit: I enjoy when people downvote me because they don’t like a fact I referenced.

We haven’t gotten nearly that many from busing.

Nah, there’s no point. It just grows year after year. Once in a while there’s a tiny cut and people act like it’s a war crime, and then the bloat resumes its skyward trend.

There is no “solution” to crime. It’s even dumber to think that. Crime can be managed. It will never be eradicated.

Lol, you’re one of the people who thinks it’s evidence-based to say that policing is incapable of reducing crime. Seriously, you have nothing to say except zingers about how you hate cops.
