NYC has a problem with pickpockets and it's growing, with the thieves specifically looking for tourists and distracted individuals on the streets and on the subway...

When you don’t put criminals in prison. You live in the prison.

Stealing phones on scooters is 3rd world behavior.

Best way to avoid being targeted in NYC is don't go there.

Criminals have more rights than law abiding citizens.

I am a retired law enforcement officer, with 22 years on the job.
Thieves are the worst and most irredeemable criminals. Once a thief, always a thief. They have zero remorse, and truly believe they are entitled to steal from others. They are the same class which never actually works, and devotes it's energy to defrauding the welfare system with bogus "disabilities", they are lazy, and are masters at playing the whole sympathy game when they get caught.
I retired to the same small town I grew up in. Over a year ago, a thieving drifter made his way to our town. He didn't stay long. One day in Wally World, he tried to snatch an elderly woman's purse. Four adult men tackled him as he ran out of the store and beat him senseless. When the police showed up, the thief tried the usual game of oh woe is me, he wasn't buying it either. He was arrested and went to jail.

NYC is basically a marketing brochure for criminals. No arrests, no consequences, lots of distracted tourists.

When a pickpocket team attempted to steal my phone in Madrid, i had a picture of them in action. After contacting security, I was amazed at how quickly they went into victim mode, accusing me of “taking in appropriate pictures” and other heinous acts. I was searched, told to delete the evidence, and they walked free. These are shameless, soulless people.

I just witnessed one of those “grab n’ go” scooter thefts where two guys on a scooter nabbed a woman’s phone. She was able to grab the guy who took her phone and pulled him off the back of the scooter. His head hit the pavement and was knocked out cold! His partner took off on the scooter. The woman picked up her phone and just walked away! Sad, scary, disgusting and funny all at the same time.

Instead of prosecuting criminals we instead tell the victims to buy pants with locks on the pockets. 🤣🤣

Imagine paying property taxes in this ceespool city.

[RILDIGITAL]

Scary to see how quickly these thefts can escalate in mere seconds and even more frightening knowing how much of our personal information and money can be accessed through our phones.

[wolveric]

only in NY, instead of throwing criminals in Jail the city puts a huge "careful, we have a lot of criminals" sign.

DISGUSTING WHAT IS HAPPENED TO THIS COUNTRY

[dittohead]

Not only voted for it, defended voting for it & will vote for it again. Congratulations

If you make the punishment for pickpocketing losing a hand or something equally as devastating it'll stop immediately

I am 8 months pregnant, 2 weeks ago on the subway i helplessly saw a tourist couple get robbed and there were other people who saw, and no one did a damn thing. You are on your own in this city. I couldn't even help myself let alone them. Its really bad here

[dmartinez]

That’s why I got rid of all my NYC memorabilia. I no longer want that negative energy from New York in my house.

[ToxcynTV]

They got me back in October. First time that ever happened to me my whole life living here. We are giving them free luxury housing and debit cards to buy food and they come outside and rob us, then go back to the 5 star hotel.

Let the Animals have the zoo. I will not go to New York.

Not putting criminals in prison increases crime? Huh...who would've thought 🧐
