When the national guard is security for your city subway, things have already reached an unacceptable level of govt stupidity.

For every crime that is reported there are 100 more that aren't.

It's deliberate. No government lets things get this bad by incompetence, it's maleficence.

…and if a “vigilante” where to take action against criminals, they would be locked up, unlike the actual criminals.

"it's just the world we live in?" No, no it is not. It is the policies of those in charge.

No point in having police when DAs dont charge criminals.

Get rid of Alvin Braag, Letitia James, Judge Engoron, Judge Merchan, Mayor Adams and Gov. Hochul yesterday!

when I lived in Manhattan 50 years ago I lived on the upper west side.I walked across the park to work , sometimes I rode my bicycle or even skied in the Winter. I'm glad I have those memories, and grateful I now live in rural NH.

Everything the city is doing is on purpose

"We need to stop treating people who commit crimes like victims..." Right on, Cash.

They elected Mayor Adams. F 'em.

Moped crime is straight out of South America. Gee, I wonder who could be committing all these crimes?

I left the city right before the pandemic. Looks like I made the right choice.

When have a city where criminals don't get prosecuted and citizens are not allowed to defend themselves.What could possibly happen😮

It’s not a shame. It’s deliberate. Wakey wakey.

You're covering and showing the world the truth in NYC like no media conglomerate even remotely is, amazing!

Crime is only down because they stopped arresting people for crimes. You cant fix crime by changing the name of it and hope it just goes away.

Defunded Police = “You have reached 911. 911 is not in service, Goodbye”

I had the privilege of walking foot posts in Central Park as a rookie cop in 1980. Fresh out of the academy I was actually paid to stroll through one of the greatest parks in the world. There was nothing like it. Taking pictures for and with tourists. Giving directions and having to learn all of the important places in the Greatest City in the World. And getting paid to do it. It’s a shame to see what the powers to be are allowing to happen to our great park, Central Park.

The key point made a few times .. the cops arrest you and you are back on the street with no penalty. This is the part that has to change. No law enforcement means the most the police can do is break up fights. End the e-vehicles and leave the park for pedestrians. Let the cops confiscate the vehicle if you violate.

When I was a kid in the 1970s in New York I was repeatedly warned not to go into Central Park after dark. Now it's not even safe during daytime. I effing hate these people.

This age of unaccountability is disturbing and dangerously out of control!

Love your videos. S tier. One key aspect to mention is the city has banned self defense and if you do defend yourself they will prosecut you not the criminal who tried to mug you.

I grew up when it was very similar, fifteen years ago I saw Central Park restored to its original glory. Beautiful restored fountains, grass instead of crabgrass and dirt. Tons of tourists and performers. Glad I saw what it could be because it’s back to what I remember and worse. I used to know where to walk, play, even ride a horse without getting jumped. Now it’s all not safe. What a sin to slide so far backwards.

“Progressive justice” is the most dangerous thing for a city!

Politicians who promoted that mess should be charged for treason

This is now very sadly, every park in every city. I grew up in NYC, but am currently residing in a small city in Michigan and it's scary af here. And the cops' hands are tied because the jails are overflowing, mental health care is a screwy system in itself, drugs use is outta control...recipe for a big fat disaster. It's just on a larger scale and your risks increase. I miss NY so much, I almost moved back a few years ago (prior to covid) and am glad I decided not to. Yeah there's crazy crap going on here like I said, but NYC is huge, more people, more BS.

I stole a car that I found keys in but they found it in three days… I left the state before they found me but went back a year later knowing I had a warrant. They pulled me over and ran my id and arrested me took me to jail. I was in jail for 47 days almost two months and on probation for two years and still can’t buy a gun or work for ubereats and other jobs because of background check.. I did nothing violent why was I punished more than violent people. It’s honestly weird

My then-girlfriend went to NYC in 2021, and the first thing the landlord told her was "don't go anywhere close to Central Park after it gets dark."

Reported crime is down and unreported crime is through the roof.

In 1963 no Manhattan cabbie even by day would take my family through Central Park and Harlem too. Being from a safe city we couldn't imagine that so our parents asked a few who all said the same thing. Locals had learned too avoid the park entirely.

It's WAY past time for vigilante justice!!!

0:59 - "It's not the neighborhood, it's the world in which we live in." No, _it's the neighborhood._

NYC needs serious criminal court reform

So extremely tragic for the USA and New York and the unfortunate law abiding people who are having the lives and livelihoods destroyed by criminals form the public, criminal in the government and criminals in the judiciary.

New York needs Rudy Giuliani to clean this place up.

Criminals have no fear because of no repercussions. The police keep arresting the same people. What a mess!

Imagine being accepted into a good college in NYC, and in the first year you go there, students and teachers are protesting your hallways because of a foreign war we're not involved in, a flood of immigrants are wrapped around multiple blocks, sky-high rent prices, thousands of large and small stores near your apartment are closing because of mob thefts, it's so dangerous that national guards are stationed in the subway, garbage is collecting on the street corners because of budgeting, high crime, high tax, and so on and so forth. Why would anyone live in NYC anymore? Especially when it's obvious the city doesn't care that much about you.

What % of crime is actually reported? If they say there were 18 incidents reported, how many actually happened?

Eric Adams. Demoncrap. Ex-cop. Now mayor. Crime skyrockets. Glad I moved.

THERE IS THE PROBLEM. FOUR MUGGINGS and they charged the guy with simple larceny. Four violent felonies only charged as misdemeanor stealing. That is THE problem.

NYC just needs to declare Central Park a "Knife Free Zone" that'll make it safe.

This is what I said a long time ago, in the future, foreign and dark Amish will see the park as a farm, and they will go pick crops, crops of cell phones, handbags, wallets. You name it. It all grows in the fertile soil of Central Park..

Why don’t they arrest the people doing the crime and send them to prison if they are repeat offenders?

Why start patrolling more, if they’re just going to release them because it wasn’t $1k in damages?

Fact is Central Park used to be dangerous like this in the 80's. Very common to see Central Park mugging scenes in movies during this time. It wasn't until Giuliana became mayor in 1994 when subways/Central Park/Times Square became safe. Now it's reverting back to the 80's. Retro never goes out of style.

I would never move to or ever visit New York City.

Hey, Cash the production values on these videos are very impressive, well done mate, and love from Tamworth in the UK.

"It's just the world we live in now." Meaning, "It's not my fault, I take zero responsibility, and will vote again for the people and polices that have created this."

Nobody's going to know how dangerous it is when the city doesn't report the crimes that are really happening.

We never have this problem in rural small towns, of course many of us carry concealed and bad people know that. So they move to sanctuary cities where they are the only armed people.

It’s the Manhattan District attorney, and NYs Attorney general

The tragic thing about this is that Central Park in the past used to be high crime and dangerous, espeically at night. Then Guilani cracked down hard on crime and NYC enjoyed a dramtatic drop in crime. Then that legacy has been trashed and crime is reaching or surpassing levels it had back in the 70s. What is apparent that it truly doesn't have to be that way.

I don’t blame anyone for leaving or not visiting NYC the people they voted in is destroying this city it’s very deplorable ☹️

And there’s still people who want more of this.. Pelosi also said SanFrancisco is to be admired and duplicated if you can believe that!

The city has always had crime, high police presence, city jails overcrowded, City Hall "tough on crime" you name it, crime exists. Police are for after a crime occurs, police do not prevent crime. Vigilance, not being seen as a victim helps, avoid unsafe and avoidable situations. It's true, here recently there definitely is an influx of weirdos in the city .

When you have judges and prosecutors refusing to do they're jobs, how TF can you not expect crime rates to rise?

When are people going to understand that things will never get better if you keep voting for the same liberals every time.

Hey, Mr. Jordan - or should I call you Mr. Gloom and Doom? Really, I love your vids. I visited Manhattan for five days last month and had a great time. My neice (who lives in Washington Heights) took us through the northern end of Central Park, which was a lot less touristy - and apparently more crime ridden. Anyway, at my advance age I wanted to visit the great metropolis one more time. I stayed in Chelsea, saw a few bums camped out and a couple crazies, but I never felt unsafe. That's because I was careful and didn't go out late at night. I'm glad I got to visit NYC while it was still standing, so to speak. Thanks for your KZfaq efforts.

Lawlessness on purpose. Seattle is same.

Why would cops go out of their way to protect people who voted to defund them?

It’s known by New Yorkers, not to enter Central Park at night. It was one of the first things I was told when I moved to NYC. Made perfect sense to me, I don’t think I would have gone after dark anyway. From memory there were even signs saying it was closed after dark too. I lived in NYC for almost ten years and I never came close to being robbed. The only thing that ever happened, was having my identity stolen, which resulted in them getting brand new cell phones in my name, leaving me with the bill. I suspect my SSN was compromised by a dentist I saw, they either sold it or someone working there stole it. It was the only place I gave my SSN to, only had it a few months too. Police caught the criminals who were lingering outside my apartment, waiting for the cell phones to arrive. Under cover police saw him loitering and when they detained him, found a list of names, addresses and SSNs…one of which was my information. Other than that, I was never a victim of NYC crime.

So glad I lived in the City during good days! Moved out 2019. I live in walking distance from my apt. There was crime but never this bad!

Commit armed robbery? You're free to go. Carry an effective form of self defense? Jail cell. I wonder what happened that led us to this point...

my work just cancelled our work conference for 250 in NYC and changed it to Tampa after both of the conference coordinators were mugged there. .

In Seattle where I currently live-I have been held up at gunpoint, assaulted, robbed, attempted robbery,; I have been surrounded in my car in Atlanta and Detroit. Eight different times I have been the victim of crimes. (I have traveled 46 states in my life) And being from Florida/Miami; I have learned that reporting crime against me is a HUMILITATING waste of time where each time-I AM THE ONE WHO IS INTERROGATED AND LOOKED AT LIKE THE CRIMINAL! My point is that I will never report a crime against me because of how the police treat me. My home was robbed recently and I did not report it because of how I have repeatedly made to feel like the criminal. I am just one person, and I have been the victim of crime eight different times-just imagine how many more millions of crimes go unaccounted for or are not reported. When I have reported crimes against me-it takes 3-5 hours of my time-each crime against me! And then to be interrogated as if it was my fault-no thank you! Oh, one time when I was robbed of my wallet in Miami-I did receive my empty wallet with my driver's license back to me! Yee-haw! If that is not justice?

It’s very true that NY’ers dont want to talk about it. I left MYC years ago and still have many friends and family there, when I ask them about what I’m seeing online and they all say that theres no problem and that im in a social media bubble. SMH

The evil thing is, if you defend yourself and the criminal happens to develop an acute case of high-velocity lead poisoning, the city and state of New York treat you, the defender, as the criminal, and will spend exorbitant amounts of money to convict and incarcerate you. Better off not to even move there or visit.

All crime begins in Alvin Bragg's office.

At night it looks and feel different because the thousands of rats come out to play. Go to the boat house after 9 or 10pm west side in the 70s. If there's no one around and it's dark, stand still near the grass and wait.

Welcome to South Africa. When I was a kid, my dad went to New York on business (recruiting, I think), and was shocked at how many locks were on his hotel door, and at all the safety precautions he was recommended to follow. Back home, we didn't lock the front door during the day. Not just that, it was always wide open. If you visited a friend, you went there, walked in, and maybe waited for them in their house if they weren't yet home. Now high electric fences and private security are a necessity to those who can afford to make up for the lack of investment in policing (while all the honest people get the opportunity to wait while time takes its time proving that someone's untested college theory of justice proves itself right). Murder rate? It's been above 30 per 100K for most of the last 40 years. (That's just the one crime it's hard to fudge the statistics on, and make your precinct look like it's doing better than it actually is.)

A woman said the world is getting more dangerous.....she needs to travel more.....She wouldn't want to return.

And since firearms for self defense are completely banned in the city, no one can defend themselves against any weapon...

Who decided criminals shouldn’t be held Who must we vote out of office to make it safe again

Post thousands of notices in the park that there is a file of random " NUMBERS " & the person in the park to commit a crime matching that number will have his un-dominant hand remove & displayed. How many hands will it take to STOP that S-IT. The lawsuits will be cheaper than the policing.

Imagine owning one of those million-worth apartments around the central park and have a view on this slum. What a bargain.

It's the 70's all over again

NY needs longer prison sentences and new mega jails..At this point with crime in the parks i would have to say bring the military to the parks 24-7

How does hundreds of years of crime wave become something new, especially when new York skools turn out millions of criminals each year with a graduation certification of newyorkskum

I'm retired now, but 4 decades ago I went on my honeymoon to Acapulco. The hotel staff warned us to never walk on the beach at night, because tourists were sometimes robbed there. I never thought American cities would today be as crime-ridden as 3rd World nations were 40 years ago

LIterally no one wanted these people here

knowing how matter-of-fact New Yorkers are, I wonder how long it will be until vigilante justice starts to assert itself. If its really this bad, what can possibly stop this?

In a way not saving people is like a dose of something like exposure to a problem that the public would be exposed to in worse conditions like dealing with it a little bit now might make people better fit to deal with it when it's worse.

0:59 . It is not the world that we're living in right now. It's the world that you asked and voted for.

If they allowed constitutional carry, there'd be a lot less criminals on the streets.

I live in NYC. I carry pepper Spray which is Legal to have.... Not sure why more people don't follow suite.

I feel so sad seeing NYC going down like this. My mother and I have always dreamed going there at least once...😔

Its almost as if people can't defend themselves. If you can't protect yourself, you're just a sitting duck.

Yup, keep defunding the police and voting for politicians that don't prioritize law and order!

There must be enforcement, consequences, and numbers, and no more revolving door.

Just watched a TikTok video of a young woman who was randomly punched in the head by another woman for nothing. And not one passenger nor the driver helped the punchee. The puncher sat back down, name calling the whole time. Punchee had thought the bus was safer than the subway.

"it's not the neighborhood, it's the time we're living in" No, it's the neighborhood lady. Crime is NOTHING like this where I live.

Now watch in (not) amazement as most New Yorkers vote for more.

I remember back in the early 2000s during the Bloomberg days when I took 2am walks in the reservoir in Central Park without a worry in the world. What change? How did it go downhill in just a decade?

Former Manhattanite. Born and raised me. 45 years and had enough and left. You can have a good product (NYC) and expensive price. You can have a bad product for a cheap price. But you cannot have a bad product at a high price.

That lady at the beginning saying “it’s not the neighborhood, it’s the world we live in” the world *you* live in, lady. *you* accepted that way of life. I moved away from big cities to get away from that bs. I don’t even lock my car because where I live is so safe.

The suspect arrested in charged 😂😂😂😂😂

Central Park is always been a nightmare. There was always some kind of killings over there. Do you remember the Central Park five that didn’t do anything and had to go to prison and then you had the boy and girl that gutted a guy and threw him in the river.

There was a time where people who led the city of New York took pride in the city of New York. Now the only thing they seem to take pride in is the message, and everybody else be damned.

Funny how Cash no longer shows apartments anymore because even HE KNOWS it's not worth it to live in NYC anymore lol
