"mind your business" say that to those people when you need help when getting assaulted 😁

Eric Adams is like that meme where the house is on fire & the dude is drinking coffee saying “Everything is fine”.

It's easy to say it's "only a handful of crime being committed" when you and your family travels around in limousine

[beberivera]

I take the trains everyday from the Bronx to downtown Manhattan and there's no exageration: its pretty bad and just commuting to and from work is stressful for everyone bc of it.

People must come together and defend each other when you see a crazy person attacking other person we should come together and hold the individual until the police comes

[wishiknewaname]

Nah spit on me - and it’s a problem no matter who you are. Spitting on someone is high level of disrespect

[Cracker]

You can mind your business but what happens when it happens to you?

[sherrybeckley]

I thought crime is a perception problem mayor? People just don’t feel safe

[SteveSmith-kdif]

Eric Adams is out of his mind "every 2 days you hear about a disturbing incident on the train"!!!!

[xxFreakifyxx]

its not about the amount of crimes that are happening - its about the fear we feel about using a necessary service every day and for every incident that happens, there are many more times when you fear that it will because someone is making you uncomfortable

[luker]

I don't care if its just a handful. If they're going after random targets, that really doesn't put me at ease.

This is why when you see people recording altercations nobody generally steps in because they don't want to be victimized as well. Everybody in NYC should be carrying at a minimum a good pepper spray with a 3-4 yard range. It's incredibly effective for self defense because you don't need to be close to somebody to use it and it will pretty much completely incapacitate anybody instantly.

This is y people mind there business because the good Samaritan gets hurt

[lz]

Can someone please explain to me WHY we are consistently not given a full, complete description of the offender?

[camboslice]

If your not stopping a fight with a knife or gun, what's the point???
I guess everybody loves a martyr.

Zeldin! Zeldin! Zeldin! Zeldin!
That’s a start. Vote him in! I’m not even a fan of the guy but I’m willing to vote for him because change needs to come and it needs to come now. My democrat party is a shell of what it was. Adams is not fit to be a mayor, DeBlasio was never fit to be the mayor, and Hochul is delusional. She should have removed Bragg as DA a long time ago.

[MUZIK]

They need to Bring back the undercover plainclothes task force.

It's 11:30 PM, just arrived to 59th street station. Four NYPD officers is outside the station and two more near the precinct inside the station. Why they're not downstairs on the platform....

Don’t EVER expect anyone to help you on the subway. Instead of bingeing on Netflix shows, train every day. Whether its martial arts or weapons training, man or woman, you MUST prepare yourself for physical combat. Don’t think because you’re a “good person” that you’re above being attacked. If you’re going to carry a knife, learn and train to fight with one. If you carry a gun, practice weapons control and discipline. If you’re going to wait for a cop or random person to help you, God speed.

Step dowm Adams. Dont downplay the uptick of recent transit crime rate and put more cops on duty…bc if it wasnt high, then you are wasting a lot of taxpayers dollars on cops in the subway system
