Hmm, didn't think this dude was nothing but a troll (like Brandonbull and a few others) but this page proves otherwise. Just put it on ignore and move on. There's no interest in real conversation here, it's just trying to rile you all up (and succeeding).

It's amazing how political echo chambers can make people believe the exact opposite of reality.

Anti-vaxxers are convinced people are dropping dead because of vaccines.

And here Felix is believing NYC crime rates are at record highs when they are at record lows. And if you take it back through Felix's lifetime, they are so dramatically lower as to be astonishing.

NYC officials announce city crime 'continues to trend downward'

Overall crime is down both on the streets of New York City and below in the subways, however, there was a spike in both assaults and robberies in the first quarter of this year.

I understand the point you are trying to make and if you want to point to murder only you can make your case. But what you are missing are the assaults, robbery, etc that is forcing many stores to close and migrant crime thar make things worse.

Nope. Violent crime of all kinds in NYC is down by about 75% from its 90's peak.

NYC is just a low crime big city and it's long past time for people to accept reality. What's weird is the people who claim to want low crime the most are the ones most furiously denying the obvious.

Can you link to the stats that show high crime rates and specifically crimes tied to the migrants? I think you are being misled.
 
What's funny is the people who constantly claim they want crime to be low, when confronted with exactly what they claim to want, stubbornly refuse to accept success.

It's a weird emotional investment in things being bad. It's ok for things to be good, @FelixDeCat!

Every study I have seen finds that immigrants, documented or undocumented, offend at much lower rates than native born Americans.

Tell me you didn't read the links without telling me.

Crimes are down overall.

But keep believing the alt-reality your echo chamber feeds you.

I bet you've fallen for the "died suddenly" shit as well.

Plenty of crime in the sticks buddy. I'm from there and can attest.

Isolated rural places have a very high murder rate. I've seen documentaries about it. I gather it often involves a random group of people stuck in an isolated country house, being killed off one-by-one, all by different methods. Oddly, it seems to require an elderly lady or an obese Belgian to identify the perp.

If it weren't for their perceived immigration problem, there wouldn't be much left for them to campaign on.

NY is a cesspool of crime of because of all the wild animals running around.

Spend $7 billion on new zoos so we can keep the animals locked up as opposed letting them mill about to loot stores, randomly set people on fire, attack musicians performing for free or push them in front of trains.

Its easy and effective.

You can call NY a cesspool of crime but they have a lower crime rate than most red cities/states

He really just needs to stop watching Fox. It a lazy news organization that can't seem to do any national reporting anymore. We get it your headquarters are in New York.
