    NYC Mayor Eric Adams's plan for safer subway takes effect after violent weekend.
    Washington Examiner (Moderate Right) • Factual Grade 76% • 2 min read

    Six stabbings at stations in Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn were reported over the weekend. More than 270 subway crimes have been reported in 2022 so far, compared to 167 last year. Adams’s plan aims to stop homeless people from sleeping on trains, urinating on platforms, and bringing shopping carts of belongings into the subway, instead encouraging the homeless and mentally ill to accept help.
    ...
    “The system is not made to be housing. It’s made to be transportation," [Adams said]. The plan includes deploying 30 police response teams to enforce transit rules such as sleeping across multiple seats, exhibiting aggressive behavior, and creating an unsanitary environment. Police will also require that trains be cleared at the end of the line.
    ...
    Adams insisted enforcement will not be heavy-handed. New York State will also invest nearly $40 million to help support hospitals’ ability to admit more psychiatric patients. The funding will help to open 500 supportive housing beds and 600 psychiatric beds.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - The restrictions were to keep people from getting hurt and dying from Covid. The vaccines are extremely effective at keeping people from getting hurt and dying from Covid. If someone hasn't gotten vaccinated yet, it's probably their choice. We can't keep harming others in order to protect people who haven't chosen to protect themselves.


No - It's easy to think it's over when cases are declining, but we forget...



Yes - For the most part, yes, although restrictions should still be kept in place ...
