Maybe I'm wrong here but from the videos that I've seen it isn't a gun or knife being used in the subways. It's bottles and fists. How're you going outlaw someone from making a fist or having a tumbler?

ETA: Send in The Warriors to clean things up.

Reported crime is down… because people stop reporting it if the perp gets released with $0 bail hours later.


And they aren’t dropping these assholes in the East River because they charge anyone who defends themselves with various crimes.

The retired as fast as they could.

The HR forces them to stay on.

I think I'd rather be deployed to the Middle East than an NYC subway.

They'll probably be armed with fly swatters. Shiddy assignment for the Guard.

I believe they know there is an impending threat. Gee who knew letting millions of unknowns into the country might be a problem.

Naw they dgaf. It's election season they need moderate idiots to think they are taking action.

They will roll it back as soon as it is no longer needed to convince dupes to vote Dem.

Has the NY Times weighed in? Will they force more editors to apologize and quit like they did after Tom Cottons op-ed calling for natl guard troops to be used to quell violence?
