Who would ever have wished for old days- when a person got stabbed and had a chance to live to see another day.

"And sometimes a dude would be so angry that after the knife fight, they would stab the amublance driver...GET BACK! Leave the muthaphucka alone...I aint done with him yet"
--Richard Pryor.

Shootings in May jumped 73% compared to the same period last year, according to the New York City Police Department. Overall hate crimes have increased by 98% this year, compared with the first five months of 2020, while crimes against the LGBTQX community jumped 188%, with 29 hate crimes against LGBTQX reported through May 31, 2021, compared to only 6 during the same period in 2020. Antisemitic hate crimes in New York City have also really been on the rise, jumping 47% this year compared to 2020, the NYPD said. The Midtown South Police Precinct at West 35th Street tallied 106 violent assaults against women compared to 59 during the same period in 2020. Brooklyn precincts from Flatbush to Church Avenue, and Queens Precincts from Jackson Heights to Elmhurst report a 75% and 70% increase in assaults on Southeast Asians from January to April 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, respectively.

Calls to defund the police have really become nonsensical and would be outright catastrophic in reality.
