Eight Violent Attacks in NYC Subway over Weekend

Eight violent attacks in the New York City subway were reported over the weekend after Mayor Eric Adams (D) announced a flat or slight decrease to police funding.

The attacks varied in kind. No deaths occurred, some victims were hospitalized, and few arrests were made, according to the New York Times. The attacks included a 31-year-old man stabbed for asking another to quit smoking, and a 30-year-old woman hit in the face with a metal pipe. Another was a robbery and stabbing of a 45-year-old man by three individuals.

While the Democrat Party has been preaching tolerance, inclusion, and open-mindedness under the guise of bail reform, crime in the Democrat-controlled city has reached a boiling point. Yet Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg is leading a soft on crime approach, predicated on “fairness” and “safety.” CNN reported:

Among the crimes Bragg said his office would not prosecute: marijuana misdemeanors, including selling more than three ounces; not paying public transportation fare; trespassing except a fourth degree stalking charge, resisting arrest, obstructing governmental administration in certain cases, and prostitution.
