Violent Crime Up in New York City as Police Distracted by Occupy Wall Street
As the Occupy Wall Street
drug partiesprotests continue in New York city, violent crime is running rampant as police resources are being allocated to keep occupiers in check, leaving those who really need police protection helpless.And then I read the comments and got even more angry. Stop the world I want to get off.
Yeah, firstly I see the fact they are over using cops at the protest, they don’t need half of them. Secondly, violent crime always goes up with poverty rate. Next it is freaking New York City, you are going to have big spikes in crime on occasion when you jam so many stinking people into on area like that.
