The big question now is whether it can be stopped.<\/p>\n<p>As The Post reported Monday, shootings in the city are running at nearly twice the rate as last year. As of Saturday, there have been 821 outbursts of gunfire, with 1,000 victims this year; 2019 saw just 446 shootings, with 551 victims at this same point.<\/p>\n<p>Police recorded a dozen gunplay incidents Saturday into Sunday morning alone. At least four people were killed over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Vagrants and addicts, meanwhile, began commandeering public streets long before the pandemic, with Mayor de Blasio doing little to address the problem.<\/p>\n<p>On Manhattan\u2019s Upper West Side after the outbreak \u2014 as The Post reported last week \u2014 the city moved hundreds of vagrants into hotels. Men are now seen peeing or masturbating in public or lying sprawled out on the streets. A 40-year-old woman was randomly stabbed near the subway at 72nd Street. Convicted rapists and sex abusers were stuffed into a hotel just a block from the PS 87 playground.<\/p>\n<p>The Post\u2019s Doree Lewak reported Sunday that even one of the most vocal anti-crime activists in the area, Elizabeth Carr (among others), is giving up and moving away.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe reached our New York expiration date,\u201d Carr sighed. \u201cThings weren\u2019t heading in the right direction.\u201d A friend, she noted, couldn\u2019t even find a broker to sell her apartment at 72nd Street and Columbus, a usually highly sought-after location.<\/p>\n<p>De Blasio\u2019s response is simply to rail that the crime and chaos are \u201cunacceptable.\u201d But his own policies \u2014 and new state and city laws \u2014 have fueled the problem.<\/p>\n<p>Neither he, nor Gov. Cuomo, nor state lawmakers, all of whom share blame, care to address those laws and policies.<\/p>\n<p>Columnist Kyle Smith argues that there\u2019s \u201cno push for law and order\u201d in the city. \u201cNew Yorkers aren\u2019t hypocrites,\u201d Smith writes, \u201cthey\u2019re masochists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We hope he\u2019s wrong.
