Question, why does the Chicago theft discussion thread get shut down but not this one?
Because that one required five times the moderation time that this one has.
Don’t some of the AI staff live in New York? If so, what is their impression of all of the chaos and violence there?
Some do. Discussions of "chaos and violence" and total destruction being had outside of the area, similar to ones about DC metro where I am, are overblown.

Perhaps it’s a bit like the reporting everyone else in America hears when there’s either a wildfire or an earthquake in California. It always looks like Armageddon, meanwhile we’re going, “What’s the big deal?”

Could be.
Folks like pointing to pictures of broken windows and similar, and interpreting what they want, given their own views.

Although truth be told, I did visit the area of Beverly Hills which was ransacked and the destruction by rioters and looters there was quite extensive.

Have to ask, anything I said? I ask because I often respond to the absolute garbage posts that make it through. I rarely swear (which if you knew me in person you would congratulate me ). Do my best to avoid calling people names. Provide links to my sources when providing a different point of view/facts. Seems like every time I put forth an effort the thread gets the axe.
Much worse since Giuliani was in charge where law and order prevailed
I live in New York City. Clearly you do not. Crime overall is at an all time low, still. The categories it’s gone up in this year are murders and shootings. This year they are now at the level they were in 2012, 11 years after Giuliani left office. Giuliani’s last year in office there were 649 murders. In 2012 they were half that. The lowest murder rate since 1945 was in 2018, 5 years after Democrat Bill De Blasio became mayor. Keep watching Fox News and enjoying your “alternate facts” though.
Glad you think NY is doing great! Keep it up! We love more of these videos befor election
Thanks for admitting you are a troll and have nothing to add but fear and lies

There is no chaos, violence is strictly in poor neighborhoods as it has always been. A grab and run outside a big shiny Apple store is a minor crime but not news worthy unless you want to paint a picture of something which does not exist. I've lived in NYC for 40 years, have seen crime and been a victim a few times but I lived in the biggest neighborhood for buying drugs, my neighbor just below had a guard outside his door with a sawed off shotgun, It was a poor neighborhood and my rent was $130 per month. That was many years ago and the worst crime NYC has seen these past few decades comes from white collar criminals, Like the mob family Trump leads. Corruption in some government agencies and now Wall Street is pretty much a city state within our city. Finance laws are again ignored but people don't complain because they have the fake sense they are earning from their stocks and investments. So a couple of iPhone robbing thieves scares you?
Under Giuliani and Bloomberg things were relatively smooth. De Blasio is a psychopath.
De Blasio is an idiot and aloof, terrible mayor for many reasons but you can’t deny that up until a few months ago all crime had continued to decrease. The lowest murder rate on record was 2018, 5 years after Bloomberg left office. All crimes outside of shootings and murders have still continued to decrease.
I guess the fact NYC is still in the midst of this global pandemic, stores large and small are shutting down, a big section of the population is unemployed, not money is coming to citizens here or anywhere else in the nation and you wonder why people are taking risks to make a dollar to survive? Poverty breeds crime but I guess you have never been poor and can't imagine what desperate people will do to eat.

People aren't "making a dollar", they are stealing someone else's. Big difference.
If the mayor was that concerned about his middle class citizens he'd do what other mayors are doing, opening things up. The laws of what business owners can and can't do with their own business is a crime within itself.

Completely agree.
Wow wrong can two people be? You don't live in NYC, your opinions are based on nothing but your narrow understanding of how the world works

There is not middle class in NYC, the real estate industry and their puppets in office have made certain of that. You are clueless, have never been here never mind know anything about my town.

Not so street I see, making a dollar or "getting paid" is a term for petty theft. Keep you eye focused on the petty thieves while your healthcare is cancelled, your Covid-19 survival payments stop coming and pay no attention to those at the top who trying to ruin your life.
