Defund NYPD group says police 'failed' after subway attack, offer 'holistic' alternative
[FoxNews] The Democratic Socialists of America chapter argues 'police presence neither prevented nor deterred' the Brooklyn subway shooting
They’re the political arm of the communists. Of course they want to reduce the number of bourgeois, law-abiding, law-enforcing police in service of the status quo, removing a key barrier to their militant arm overthrowing the government.
The New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America slammed Mayor Eric Adams for the "bloated" police presence within the city’s subway system that did not stop the Tuesday shooting in Brooklyn.

"Since Mayor Adams assumed office, police have maintained a bloated presence in our subways — including at the 36th Street Station where yesterday’s shooting took place: and now, he is cynically doubling down on this policy," NYC-DSA said in a statement Wednesday.

"That police presence neither prevented nor deterred the attack, and failed to prevent the perpetrator from fleeing the scene. The solution to a violent society is a peaceful society, and peace requires material security," the statement from NYC-DSA’s spokeswoman Sumathy Kumar continued.

The statement was released shortly after Adams confirmed the arrest of Frank James, the man accused of opening fire on a busy Brooklyn subway Tuesday morning, the New York Post reported. He injured 29 people, including 10 who suffered gunshot wounds, according to police.

Subway assaults peaked to the highest levels in 25 years in 2021. Adams unveiled plans earlier this year to curb the crimes within the subway system, including increasing police presence and preventing homeless people from sheltering in the system.

#1 It would be interesting to see polling data from people who use the subway with regard to reducing police coverage. Also does the proposed holistic approach include essential oils, because there is nothing that reduces sociopathic behavior like a mix of aromatic scents and dukey.

#2 I'd rather have any NYPD officer on my train thana professed white people hating black man. But that's just me, your opinion is your own.

Don't defund the police, defund the crazy violent people being let back on the street every day.
