Only ever had it happen once when I was a teenager. A dude ran up to my girlfriend with a plastic knife so I punched him in the head. Kinda felt bad because we all knew him from the neighborhood and he generally kept to himself, but yeah.

yall would be terrified to live in Baltimore

all these people need help tho

bro I don't want to do that corny I have black friends s*** online but I'm from the bronx. most my friends are minorities

when I say I want more cops on the subway, I'm thinking about safety in general for all subway riders.

crime is down 22% since last year after increasing police presence and increasing ticketing. to me that's a good thing

I am sorry for being aggressive earlier

But I mean “increased policing” is always to de facto solution, it’s literally the gotcha because you can never say no.

“Crime statistics are down”- more policing works

“Crime statistics are up”- see, we need more policing

Nevermind the fact where NYPD are getting their statistics from, and cops have been known to be mistrustful,

We just came out a pandemic and in general we’ve been saw a rise in crime throughout 2021 in the post-pandemic era.

How much of this is just us finally seeing post-pandemic effects taper

Homeless guy was doing less than protestors who block the highway for everyone. Guy def wouldn’t have had him in a strangle if he was white

Yeah its completely normal to choke a complete stranger to death for 15 minutes because they were being annoying

Like wtf is wrong with people man, its gonna be mad people defending this s*** bc a white man did it to a black man though

fr like y’all should already know what time it is when NLC comes itt, why are y’all even responding?

because NYPD aren't known to manipulate the numbers lmfao

Would be great to see government try to utilize mental health services

MODS HELP!!!!

“It’s complicated”

America, truly the country of freedom, where if you step even a single toe out of line at least a third of the country will be cool with you just being straight up murdered in retaliation.

Yup this is America 👌🏾

In America it is legal for 3 men to restrain and choke a man to death for yelling on a train

Nobody chokes a person for 15 minutes unless they are trying to kill them. Just say that out loud and realize how overkill that is.

He choked a man.
For 15 minutes.

A month ago I was in DC with my lady visiting a museum and a block away while waiting to cross the street a homeless guy started wylin. He was about 20ft away and kept saying some s*** about “King Von”. He had to be in his 50s. I’ve been around them before, so I knew not to engage with him. Kept it cool and didn’t say s***. But I’m not gonna lie, I was on go-mode when he said “I’ll kill you. I’ll blow your brains out”. I’m aware that clearly the guy is dealing with mental issues, but threatening to kill me is just… a line you don’t cross. He was doing way more than being “annoying”. As soon as the crosswalk light changed we jetted across the street. My girl was shook the rest of the day tho.

Poverty really should be taken more seriously in this country. It’s a sickness that’s just getting worse.

someone itt said he got off w no charges

America wants this to happen to all homeless people. Murder in plain daylight.

bro been doing this ignorant ass s*** since d rose mvp season too this s*** is ridiculous

For now. Police said they're "reviewing the details" to see if charges will be pressed 🤢🤮

NO WAY!!! he choked a stranger for FIFTEEN MINUTES
