Gaslighting New York: The Unseen Consequences of the Migrant Crisis

New York, United StatesSun Sep 15 2024
The migrant crisis in New York has been shrouded in controversy, with many claiming that crime is not a significant issue. However, a recent Post exclusive has blown the lid off the truth: "asylum-seeking" criminals are clogging the city's courts. But what does this really mean? Let's dive deeper. Firstly, it's essential to understand that the Harris-Biden administration's policies have led to millions of illegal migrants entering the country, many of whom cannot work legally. This has put an immense strain on the city's resources, particularly the court system. The lack of citizenship status tracking makes it difficult to accurately estimate the number of migrant criminals in the system. However, insiders and courthouse staff estimate that roughly 75% of those arrested in Midtown Manhattan for crimes like assault, pickpocketing, robbery, and domestic violence are migrants. In parts of Queens, the figure is over 60%. But the problem doesn't stop there. The city's "sanctuary" laws prevent the NYPD and courts from consulting with federal immigration law enforcement, allowing illegal migrants to become repeat offenders. Moreover, the "no-bail" and "criminal justice reforms" mean that these perps are often released back onto the streets soon after being arrested. As the PBA President Patrick Hendry so aptly put it, "Word has gotten out that you can come to New York to commit crimes and attack police officers and be out the next day. " This is a recipe for disaster, and it's no wonder that the vicious Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has moved into the city in force. So, what's the solution? Firstly, it's crucial to hold the Harris-Biden administration accountable for the policies that have led to this crisis. Secondly, New York voters need to demand change from their local progressive leaders whose policies only deepen the problem.
