The article criticizes New York City's Democratic mayoral candidates for opposing stricter penalties for subway fare evasion, arguing this stance jeopardizes public safety. It describes how fare evasion is often linked to more serious crimes and highlights the potential financial consequences for the Metropolitan Transit Authority. The piece implies that an increase in fare enforcement could deter crime and improve safety while boosting revenue. It positions the candidates as out of touch with the needs of law-abiding residents, aligning instead with those who excuse criminal behavior.
"Pro-crime Democrats are propelling New York toward anarchy and financial ruin, as they ignore law-abiding citizens in favor of criminals and left-wing ideologues."
"Ray Kelly, former NYPD commissioner, states that fare evasion enforcement has been a powerful tool in reducing overall subway crime. Without it, subways remain dangerous."
