Hochul's subway-safety claim a cruel joke - as violence hit deadly high in 2024
Briefly

If progressives don't want people acting in self-defense or defending others on the subway, then the state has to keep us safe - but Gov. Hochul still won't protect us from the deadliest subway environment in three decades.
Hochul's response to the horrific murder by fire of a still-unidentified woman on a moving F train on Dec. 22 was beyond caricature: Her office bragged on X about her March 'action' to deploy the National Guard to the trains.
The crime people most worry about - homicide - is breaking decades-long records. This year, 12 people have lost their lives to violence on the subway, and most of the incidents have been unprovoked stranger-on-stranger killings.
As Imani-Ciara Pizarro, one of two random stabbing victims at Grand Central on Christmas Eve, told The Post, witnesses to the attack 'just froze.' Causing reasonable people to think twice before helping someone else makes the subways even more dangerous than they are right now.
