Didn't he catch a ton of shit over the police racial profiling people in order to bring down the crime?
Yeah, basically what you’re seeing with Trump now is what we had in New York with Rudy Giuliani back in the day. They used to call him Hitler and paint the mustache on him blah blah blah.
The liberal idea of law-enforcement is to pretend that elderly white women are just as likely to commit violent crimes as young black males. So, anything that doesn’t adhere to that philosophy is deemed racial profiling.
The only reason you’re not seeing similar crime rates in New York City to what you’re seeing in Chicago and elsewhere is because Rudy’s legacy is so strong that the current Democratic leadership is so scared of getting another one like him that they don’t want to fuck with his policies. I remember hearing Michael savage describing conditions in San Francisco and I would always think to myself that city needs a Rudy. It’s even worse there now.
This.
I moved back to NYC in 1989 after my time in the military. Crack wars, drug dealers, burglaries (one attempted when I was home), car break-ins, etc. I used to walk the two miles from my apt to Elmo’s Gym on 158th off Broadway and be harassed by one dealer after another, sometimes several per block. “Get high before you buy!”
Now Times Square is like Disneyland.
There were aggressive panhandlers everywhere and you couldn’t walk down the block without seeing a car with its window broken and the stereo removed. That a Republican could get elected mayor in New York City tells you how bad things were.
Liberals tried to not give him credit by saying that crime rates were going down across the country as if Times Square would’ve just cleaned itself up. LOL. In fact, when Rudy said he was going to clean up times square, libs said that it was impossible.
