This is how they duped the inner city folk all these years. They let it burn to extract money that they redirect to themselves while the people suffer. Every area of life is sucked dry by them and the conditions are what we're witnessing NY. Watching it happen in real time.
It's a complicated balance, like parenting children. They need real consequences that establish firm boundaries, but also need to know that we care about them and want them to succeed. A lot of people who commit crimes have unfortunate circumstances, and that requires a lot of empathy. But it does not give them a free pass to walk all over society. Kids will walk all over their parents, it's the same phenomenon.
@@searchingfortruth619 Want them to succeed at what? Robbery? It's like when I was a teacher. The kids who were consistently well behaved and performed well got nothing, while the disrupters and dumbasses got awards and praise every time they managed to go 30 minutes without screwing up. You're better off behaving badly just to get the reward for stopping.
Treason is a charge you give people who are assisting foreign governments to undermine US. I think you mean Sedition. Then agian with the open boarder and human smuggling being done by members of government treason might be reasonable to assume aswell.
@@ebodowd careful man. Your so high on that horse you might not be able to get off of it without breaking your legs. You act like they don't elect themselves when no ones looking cause no sane human being cares about politics. That's another major part as to why our country isn't doing good. Us Americans (at least the ones who put God and family first) don't got time nor care to watch over a bunch of toddlers in fancy suits. The masses that do vote for em probably live in ivory towers themselves and spend too much time online instead of going out for walks. You ain't gonna get anywhere being snarky. Especially to a random person on the internet you don't even know In real life.
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.
I always wanted to come to New York City at Christmas time to enjoy all of the beautiful lights, see the Christmas Rockette Production and to go for a Carriage Ride through Central Park at night. Being from Virginia and having never been to NYC, it would have meant a lot, even staying for New Year's to see the "Ball" drop in Times Square, but seeing and hearing of things like this, it just crushes a lifelong dream. So sorry about the mess your State is in. It is due to bad Policies, lax Crime Punishments and poor Management which is a cancer on any decent, hardworking society. Prayers for you and yours along with the State. God bless.
@@5thribroarn304 Oh please, Richmond is no better. Grow up and stop believing the fearmongering. New York is great. This douche makes $ from scaring peeps like you.
I was an adventurous kid and I was always told not to go to certain places, but can only imagine what those people would say now. They would probably say "don't go outside at all "
@@chriswheeler6092 The song, Calling All Angels by Train comes to mind as for youngsters not being able to go outside being in the lyrics. Beautiful song and video for these times.
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.
I live in mid town Manhattan and I recall those days of a clean, organised and safe New York City. We all know why this has happened and who are the ones making it dangerous to just walk or take a subway. But of course if I say what you already know I will be called all sorts of things that are not true and be canceled. ...Good thing we had the chance to enjoy New York City in the late fifties and early nineteen sixties!!
Fifty years ago nobody ever walked across Central Park at night. During the day ok, at night never. Then twenty years ago the park was all cleaned up and it was safe. Things can change again. Takes effort.
@samewalt6486 You're right. Remember the Central Park Jogger who was murdered one night. But I have never walked alone at night ANYWHERE that wasn't well lit and had people on the streets. People need to use common sense.
There is a lot of incompetent governments down here in South America, where crime is a seriously increasing threat. What's going on in NYC looks absolutely familiar to anyone living in Santigio de Chile - same problem in the subway, parks, shopping centers, same revolving doors for arrested criminals, frustrated police force and politicians with the same stupid attitude. Criminal mind understands violence as the easiest way to make a living, and violence is the only thing a criminal fears and respects. In the other hand, the only violence that society can exercise on criminals is a heigher arrest rate and harshest jail sentences.
Your first sentence and I like you already! My kiind of people - not duped by all the deception. You are absolutely correct. Even the bible agrees with you!!!!!!
Yeah, that’s how democrats solve issues. Increase jobs? Create useless bureaucrat government jobs. Lower crime? Stop arresting, charging and incarcerating. No room in prisons? Release lifers. Economy is bad? Dump stolen taxes in. Green energy companies collapsing under their fraud fleecing business under the guise of “saving the planet”, hand them billions in stolen taxes and claim the business is running smoothly just like the swamp itself.
They don’t measure crime by arrests.. if that’s how they did it wouldn’t the time with Rudy be high crime because of all the arrests? No because that’s now how crime is measured on this scale…
I lived in Colombia, I told my mother about all these new crimes that she was going see, like moped robberies, etc. Selling food without a license, you name it. You can't wear watches or jewerly or have your cell phone out in public. The problem with lawmakers is that they make laws with no education on the subject matter. Did Biden or Mayor Adams ever live in Colombia that is over run with Venezuelans? If not they probably should have asked me before they started bringing them in. I get it that they want future workers for places slaughter houses and farms, but the people who are robbing people on mopeds didn't come here to work low paying jobs. In Colombia they have to rob poor people who make $200 per month. Here you can earn a lot more.
Wouldn't you thing open boarders,our government flying people in from other countries, people marching in thru Mexico(Caravans anyone),and a weak Government,law enforcement,and clueless people themselves have a lot to do with it? NY is lost BC the people themselves allowed it.Theirs only one person who could save NY but they've kept him courts trying to put him in jail over BS while real criminals destroy their State,Cities and run business away.Shame shame shame on NY,her Government and up to this point...her people.
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.
And what are you going to do about it? DON'T VOTE DEMOCRAT ANYMORE. I've tried to keep warning you people for several years, and no one listens. I warned you that by the time you figure out what these Socialist Democrats are really up to, it will be too late to fix it. Once Socialism takes hold and a one party system is in place, that's it, can't change it back.
@@timsteinkamp2245 Great way to get arrested. Just ask Daniel Penny in New York City. Don’t get involved in blue cities. They’ll arrest you and make you out to be the bad guy, not the guy pushing old ladies onto subway tracks to steal their iphone and their purse.
What do you mean they are not doing their job? They are prosecuting Trump for a misdemeanor that has an expired statute of limitation. The judges and prosecutors are working their @$$es off.
It's not even their fault in some cases. The law that they past back in 2022 made it so the judges can't even look at the persons past crimes to set bail or not. They need to change that law first, and then start sending people to jail and keep them there.
Innocent, good people standing up for themselves instead of allowing the judicial system to scare you into draconian laws and a police state. Fight back ffs.
@@shaunpatrick8345 You understand that those are trials? Next comes compulsory for the entire nation. The USA has Agenda 2050 which means to make it illegal for anyone to live outside of cities. Combine that with 15 minutes cities and what do you get?

No she’s correct. The leftists in power right now don’t care about your safety. And if you’re White, they think you deserve it because racism or something. This is all due to the evil of the far left.
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.
@@debbiescott6732 yep. A lot of people just don’t know because they are probably younger..difference is we just get a notification about the stuff they catch every day. It’s natural people get scared
So report the theft as more than a thousand dollars. What are your items worth to you? Your expensive phone? The missing cash in your wallet? The cards? That's what we have to do in Cali.
@@BungieStudios Well that becomes a catch 22. So I have to have an iPhone and $1,000? I have to be a tempting target? Part of the reason people like cards is it's harder for them to get your $ then cash in your pocket. Do I have to wear designer clothes to make sure to bump the price up in case I have a poor person phone? Cally Wally is just as weird as that accursed stolen island. The Indians with the beads? They were the winners of that trade. Do you know how much smush smush those beads probably got them?
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.
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.
Expat Brooklynite here. It wasn't Guiliani, it was Bill Bratton, with his "broken window neighborhood policing" philosophy. From little misdemeanors, great felonies grow. He cracked down on turnstile jumping, drinking in public and yanked cops of their card and put them back on foot patrol. It work so well, that Guiliani fired Bratton for receiving too much credit for turning NY from Fort Apache the Bronx to a city city where women felt safe riding the subway at thee a.m.
I remember spending days at Frisbee hill, up on the rock, by sheeps meadow, sleeping in the band shell, by Behesda. Yeah I"m dating myself, blacks, jews, ricans, we never had problems, but that's when you got at least a year for illegal guns, when it was very easy to get a wood shampoo, if you acted the fool. Those where the days my friend, unfortunately nothing good lasts forever.
I keep telling people the 80s and early 90s had unbelievable crime rates, but as you said, years of crime dropping and they are either too young or forget. I remember well and they haven't seen nothing yet.
In Ontario Canada they are passing a law that if you get caught stealing a vehicle, you will loose your drivers licence of a set amount of time. Have no fear, we are just as dumb up here.
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 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.
It's horribly sad to see all this nonsense happening to NYC, but I still love it dearly and pray for it every day, especially for the wonderful folks I met there.❤
It's happening to everything we, the people who built this country for the benefit of OUR descendants not the world's, built. It's happening everywhere we of the Old World go, and it's happening on purpose.
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.
yes i 100% agree except for the “foreign war we aren’t involved in”. we actually are very very very much involved even if we don’t have troops on the ground, our tax money is still being sent to fund the war instead of healing our beautiful city. the nypd legit has a branch in the idf, we are 100% involved.
"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."
its because its something thats happening all over the U.S. in every city. The country is suffering as a whole because of the housing crisis, cost of living, and inflation.

Shows just how bad NYC actually is, because Tampa isn't a shining gem of a city, at least by our standards down here. Its gotten better recently, but it has a history of high crime...mostly relegated to certain areas
No one cares. Our company canceled our annual Chicago meeting because Daly destroyed the airport on the lake front. It changed nothing. AFAIK, the land is still unused. I personally haven’t been to Chicago in 20 years.
@@akcalo I brought mt family to Tampa last fall for vacation. I was slightly concerned, but once we got there it was fine. You can drive around and see homeless people walking, but they are not in groups or numerous. At night everyone is out walking the streets by the river and nothing seemed sketch at all.
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.
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.
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.
nbs yea we choose where we live, that’s the reality of most cities in the US so ass, you can’t even leave ur car parked without it being damaged by another person
Fair point. If she seriously thinks that what happens in her world is symptomatic of the world as a whole, she's a typically deluded liberal and needs to get out more...
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.
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
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.
she probably meant that hard times make people move into cities for the free services, EBT, welfare ect. Even the migrants understand this. There's no subsidies in the middle of Ohio for example, so no migrants or homeless go there.
Na it's straight up getting worse everywhere. Crime statistics prove it. My city is now all orange and red for number of thefts which has basically doubled
I've been robbed. I've had my car broken into too. It's such a violating feeling that leaves a permanent impression that never goes away. I've learned to cross streets and be on the opposite side of others line of travel. I've had cars double back to be on the side of the street I crossed over to in order to avoid them. When paranoia is validated or justified by such a confirmation, a person changes. Sure, everyone isn't a threat, but there still may be one in the hundred.
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..
@@tshay2201 they've recently reduced funding for police, hospitals, and schools, and redirected that money to the immigrants. In the form of prepaid credit cards. Not a joke. Look it up. Democrats hate Americans.
Not to mention handing everything over for free for "migrants" and then doubling down and giving into their demands. Ask them if they can demand anything from their countries that they are " migrating" from.
I’m from NY, and the lady who said “it’s not the neighborhood but the times we live in” represents the mindset of a scarily overwhelming number of New Yorkers. A lot of NYCers live in the bubble that is NYC. For that reason, things will get worse but hey, nothing we haven’t seen before from the 70s or 90s right? I don’t even think most ppl know who the DA of their borough is or how local policy affects them. All many know is that everything is expensive, everyone’s tryna rob you and the cops don’t do anything.
Isn't that just your run of the mill NYer arrogance. Huge cities in East Asia, in countries poorer than the US, has way less crime and virtually no issues with open drug use. So, No. it is not about the world we live in, but all about the neighborhood. As it turns out, you get exactly what you vote for. Who would have thunk it.
My friend, I’m going to play devil’s advocate by stating this: on paper, the police are absolutely necessary and their existence serves as an informal means to keep people of relatively sound morals feeling secure within their local society. Yes, there is a level of criminality that exists in New York City right now that did not existed previously, but it’s also a result of a lack of government direction and resources for the people we have received here. Despite all the good intentions and PR, the police serve as a heavy hand against the working poor especially and the people we have received all left even more desperate circumstances. The idea behind “defunding the police” is a demand for them to be retrained on an institutional so that they might better assess danger or crime in a way that is more beneficial to society. Too many nuance in details discuss here, but I hope you understand the point.
How many cops voted for this? We have to think about that. They look at their job as a job to pay their rent, bills, food, etc. There' is that element of mental illness within the police force.
I completely understand how some of them feel. However, we still the police! Defunding them is not gonna make things any better! Retraining them is the best way to go! Not everyone is as suspicious as you may think, And yes, there are corrupted cops who uses their authority to bully people. But there are some good cops, and alot of the cops need retraining! Heck, they don't know the difference between a suspicious person and someone with autism!
@@justingriffin2546Depends on where doesn't it, don't get me wrong the US has a bunch of bad spots but it's still better then a good portion of the world. Not a great excuse though I'll admit.
We moved from Manhattan to Montgomery Georgia 3 years ago. Best decision I have ever made just from a quality of life angle. We moved from a tiny (800sq. ft) apartment renting for 5500.00 a month to living in a mansion on a 2 acre lot for under 200K on a mortgage. Why people are staying in hell holes like NYC, SF, LA, Chicago is beyond me. They give you nothing but misery for your money.
All depends on what people like and what people are used to. I live in New Mexico because I like 300 days a year of sunshine and no humidity or mosquitoes. I could visit Georgia but not live there too humid and hot in the summer
You know why they stay in the NY metro area………it’s for the fat paychecks and having to go into the office a few days a week. $5,500 a month rent 😂😂😂😂😂, if you purchased a house three years ago, it would be worth millions now, and someone would tear the house down for just the land.
Residents have the power to vote city leadership out of office. National Guard in the subway, cops in Central Park, defunding police, not prosecuting crimes, etc. It’s almost as if the destruction of the city is on purpose. Weird.
They never defunded police. They actually got an increase in funding in NYC. But many people retired during COVID. NYPD has always been in Central Park but now there are more. Everything else is correct.
PoC elected officials designed Criminal Law Reform to do two things: 1. Allow PoC to commit crime without consequences. 2. Reduce the amount of incarcerated PoC criminals. They will not under any circumstances admit that Criminal Law Reform is to blame.
True in Colorado the mayor announced 8 million taken out of police dept. To help the migrants and no police services would be impacted. 2 weeks later... announced police will Not respond to minor offenses such as expired plates, when dmv is mostly online now to cut costs and help migrants. The ones with expired plates are mostly the migrants with cars. Police will not respond to minor offenses to combat discrimination. 🤔 ironic huh.. Now these men are knocking on our doors at home asking for money to be put on their cards and now asking if we have a room or if THEY All can live with us. Police won't respond to a No soliciting community with reports on file with police dept since they are relentless and come days later. Walking and knocking on doors blocks away and now stealing things off porches. I guess they don't want to discriminate until these men hurt someone when they get more desperate and bold. Or maybe they'll just rob anything they can and it won't be at the level for a response from the police. Colorado is #3 for violent crime & car thefts.
Criminal law Reform?!!? Not even sure what that means. What we really need is for libs to admit they were wrong, and undo all the deBlasio policies and go right back to the Rudy/Bloomberg years tactics. But even if they did that, it would still take over a decade for things to get back to the way they were.

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.
If only citizens had a way to defend themselves ( 🔫 ) but unfortunately the laws emboldened criminals whether it’s shoplifting or muggings not the citizens! If the governor or the mayor weren’t so anti gun ( for law abiding citizens ) there might be a down tick in crime in Central Park
yeah, they put a gun collector ( A engineer with no record and only kept his firearms in his house) sentenced him 10 years BUT released a bunch of "non- citizens " for beating on some cops
Here’s a story for you. About 10 years ago on West 33rd Street, a man shot his boss after being fired. He then ran around the corner, gun in hand, to the front of the Empire State Building. Police ended up having to shoot him. But shrapnel from the shooting of the man hit civilians including a woman whose leg was hit a block away. And that is why, in a city of over eight million, where even police trained to handle guns can hit people on a crowded side walk, you don’t want every random citizen carrying a gun.
@@boom350ph The criminals already have the guns and knives and Bats, etc and when they know you have only skin and bones, they feel emboldened, here's the thing, since by your answer you don't carry a firearm, when you can (you don't have to) Just the thought that you MIGHT have one can sometimes and a lot of times deter a crook from trying to Rob, rape or murder you. No one wants to be shot, not even the crooks. 98% of gun owners are responsible and just want to live peacefully but want to be able to deter someone from hurting them or their families, places where the masses can carry, the crime rates are lower, not perfect but lower because the crook is less likely to Jump you if he feels he might get shot or worse, they always want easy targets "soft" targets.
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

As an historian, I wanted to share a little part of NYC's history. In the year 1900, the year my late grandmother was born, a robbery took place on the streets of the Bronx. From the cover of the NY Times: Couple robbed by a revolver wielding thief, while walking home during the evening. That was news in a city with a multitude of new immigrants. They learned the first lesson of being an American, blend in.
I've said this before but this is true for every video you make: Besides the information you give, the filming and editing is GREAT!!! A 3 to 5 second clip shot from a weird angle _CUT_ a 3 second b-roll _CUT_ a 2 second clip of you walking _CUT_ a 2 second clip of you walking but shot from a different angle _CUT_ and it goes like this for 15 minutes or more! It never gets boring and while you're watching all this happening, you're listening and learning from what is being talked about. *Perfect!*
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.
Last guy that tried to help someone being attacked in NYC is currently in jail on bulls**t attempted murder charges. Nobody is going to assist anyone under attack in NYC after that.
Last guy that helped a victim is currently on Riker's Island facing 'ending' criminal charges with a ruined life. Nobody is going to help anyone in NYC after that.
When the Police Departments all across the US are massively defunded, when there's not enough Police, when Judges are bought, when the DA can't/won't do their jobs= Resident Evil. For real.
PLEASE! I was Born and Raised in NYC and this was happening when i was a kid in the 90's. Once the Sun goes down you dont go into Central Park unless your ready to Defend your goods,Life and ass.
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 RU-vid efforts.
he is cashing these videos i wont lie. his ethic on these edits even though they are the same template is really good work! every video still hits! actually motivating.
That's called a smart pivot. Why try to sell apartments and move people into this garbage when you can get paid for simply talking about it? Trying to convince people to come against all of these things would be a mammoth task.
We've come full circle and people don't realise it! Back in the 1980's Central Park was a crime ridden wasteland! Grown men went into the park and didn't come out alive! But through the late 80's and early 90's NYPD and the city of New York worked hard to clean the place up and turn it into something special. Now it's gone back down hill again, we're right back to where we were back in the 80's. It's a shame!
Didn't you have the Guardian Angels patrolling the streets back then to keep you people safe? Maybe you and your buddies need to get out there and do the same, or just sit back and bitch. To expect the government to do everything for you would be nice....good luck.
If NYPD didn't address how those criminals were raised, then they failed to secure the safety of today's NYC. The family structure is the city's first line of crime prevention. If a POS man mates with a POS woman, then prepare yourself for their POS son or daughter when they become a problem in the next 15+ years. Throwing police at the problem is just an after-thought.
It happens every time democrats are in power it got cleaned up when republicans in power since the police had the power to then arrest and keep people in jail instead of releasing them back on the street to do more crimes which is the democrat way don't want to give them a criminal record because they cannot vote democrats anymore so they lose voters.
I live just outside of Detroit and I can tell you that the city still hasn’t recovered from the 1950s white flight and the huge increase in crime and violence and corruption. If y’all don’t fix your city now it will be decades before it’s worth anything again.
It's much worse than that.People didn't have to go through the legal immigration process and they are not prepared at all to support themselves. They are not likely to ever be able to afford to pay rent and have a place of their own in the city either. The crime has definitely gotten worse and they are so ignorantly Left that they will probably turn around and allow those people to decide policy. Which would definitely make life worse for the natives.
I'm from Farmington Hills but lived in Detroit for college - honestly the city itself is doing better than most. Hanging out downtown is pretty safe compared to NYC or San Fran.
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.
I must say this: I have subscribed for YEARS, Cash, because I loved your intrepid reviews of NYC rentals and homes, from the smallest and cheapest to the billionaires’ homes in the clouds. You didn’t just give us walk-thru’s of apartments, but literal walks to and within the rental’s neighborhood businesses, transportation, etc. When things started to ‘happen’ the past year, owing to the huge influx of ‘newcomers’, I NEVER expected to see you become the literal ‘on-the-ground’ reporter of NEWS… wow. I now watch your vids for TRUTH we don’t get from mainstream media. I appreciate and respect your viewpoint. THANK YOU, for remaining the ‘man on the street’, this time for your thoughtful insight and candid ‘review’ of what’s happening on the streets of one of the biggest cities in the world…
@@jipsigal Could talk about the shadowbanning going on, freedom of speech rights is supposed to be a human right. I don't like selective hearing, because its so problematic.
I miss apartment tours 😢. This stuff is depressing. But I get that he still has to make videos. Maybe there's nothing left for rent. Which is bizarre, considering the place is going to shit. You'd think people would leave.
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.
And what you think republican can do if they can't even pass any bills to help people when they control the house Yes, in 2023 Congress passed the fewest number of bills since the Great Depression Only 27 congressional bills made it into law last year, putting this GOP majority Congress on track to be the least productive in more than 90 years. The previous Congress, the 117th, passed 362 bills during its two-year term, the 116th passed 344 and the 115th passed 442.
Whateverrrrrrrrrrr with that same party BS..Just make the laws stick and make them work hard in prison..Next, you have to vote LOCALLY first,and if you do not like them, then YOU run for office and do it better..Now give me YOUR excuses for not getting it done yourself..
@@LilyGazou why do u think NYC's police force all of the sudden switched from 95% white, to literally 95% ethnic now....they are made a dispensable force now.
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.
I hate people who wear both headphones and walk through the streets and are completely clueless of what is happening, not even looking out for traffic. I simply wear just 1 earphone and i am never glued to my phone
I sometimes wear earplugs especially where cicadas infest the trees, because they form choirs that reach decibels as loud as small jet engines, and can blow sensitive eardrums. Disabilities aren't much helpful, you know? 🤟
