NYC nightly score: 7 shot, 1 dead in a 3-hour span

New York City, like Chicago and other Democratic-run major cities, has become more dangerous to residents than Afghanistan was in the last few years before we pulled out.

Overnight, there were seven people shot and one was killed in the span of only three hours. The shootings occurred in Coney Island, Flatbush, Far Rockaway, East New York, and Long Island City. 

One 26-year-old man was shot in the face in Long Island City and is in critical condition Monday morning.

No arrests have been made.

Just days ago, seven other people were shot, one of whom is a 12-year-old girl, all in an hour time span that had followed a deadly night that had 11 shooting or stabbing incidents within a six-hour span.

Since June, crime in the Big Apple has been increasing with NYPD stats showing a rise of over 30% compared to last year.

Democrat Mayor Eric Adams, a former NYPD captain, has done a yeoman's job of doing nothing but talking about the problem, but to his credit, he is critical of the "catch, release, and repeat" policy of the previous administrations and the total incompetence of former mayor, Comrade Bill de Blasio.

Adams is vowing to get the growing problem under control, but he has been as effective as a sump pump at the beach.

"It is unfortunate the climate we’re working under … where the entire criminal-justice apparatus has turned away from the public and the rights of the public to live safe in their city," Adams said last month.

"We’re going to turn this crime thing around, and when we do so, people are going to really see the progress we’ve made in other parts of the city," he added. "Public safety and justice are prerequisites for prosperity. If you’re not safe you really can’t thrive… Public safety is crucial."

Yadda, yadda, yadda.

Seeing is believing.
