Isn't it easier to discuss things when looking at actual stats? https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/nypd/downloads/pdf/crime_statistics/cs-en-us-city.pdf https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/nypd/downloads/pdf/crime_statist... Year to date (stats from this week) show that NYC is still at historic lows for crime rate. Total rate of crime is up 3% this year, but down -6% over 11 years, and -77% over 28 years. Most crime that's up is forms of theft. The biggest thing to note for grand larceny auto, is that the normal number is very low, and its 28 year rate is the most historically low (down 90.8%), so any change in the numbers is going to look dramatic. I wonder why NYPost is posting about the dramatic increase in robbery (Up 3% year to date), but not about hate crimes (up 96% year to date)?
