I would not have thought all crime was down that much in NYC based on news reports of deterioration of quality of public life. I mean I can see murder rates continue to creep down, but I'd have guess nuisance crimes are up. And hate crimes in the city are spotlit recently.
There is also a possibility that the data collection has been tampered with, and purposely under reported for political reasons. Or if not data tampering, purposeful enforcement slow downs.
Or I could have been hoodwinked by inflated reports of rapid decay in the media.

I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.
You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
