“#De Blasio’s still in denial as NYC shootings surge on<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Shootings across the city were trip<\/a>le the level of the same week last year, the latest NYPD data show. When will Mayor Bill de Blasio stop pretending the rise in violence is just another result of the pandemic, something that will reverse when COVID is vanquished?<\/p>\n

In all this year, they\u2019re up 83 percent over the 2020 mark and 93 percent above the 2019 level. Last week, that meant 49 of your neighbors wounded or killed; the week before, 50. <\/p>\n

De Blasio insists that rising gun arrests will turn the tide. But the NYPD\u2019s crackdown on guns started in September, and the tide is still rising.<\/p>\n

The mayor also cluelessly notes that \u201coverall crime is down\u201d and insists that \u201cSaturday Night Lights\u201d basketball and summer youth jobs will reduce the violence. In fact, he\u2019s not launching a police surge in hot spots until the start of summer with another iteration of the NYPD\u2019s \u201cSummer All Out\u201d deployment.<\/p>\n

App<\/a>arently, residents, shopkeepers and commuters are on their own while the cavalry mounts up to arrive next month.<\/p>\n

Visiting with The Post\u2019s editorial board Tuesday, mayoral candidate Eric Adams said the bad guys have learned they can predict when it\u2019s safe: \u201cIf you don\u2019t see a blue and white [an NYPD squad car], keep doing what you\u2019re doing.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the plainclothes anti-crime unit dismantled, too many New Yorkers feel free to roam city streets armed with deadly handguns and other weapons. NYPD patrol cars with their flashing lights warn of their approach from blocks away. <\/p>\n

Heck, simple gun possession won\u2019t even get you sent to Rikers under the state\u2019s insane \u201cno bail\u201d law. And the fury of \u201cDefund the police\u201d activists \u2014 and their ample political support \u2014 has beat cops more cautious about venturing into areas where they may see something and have to take action. <\/p>\n

And innocent, law-abiding New Yorkers are paying the price.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
