The war on cars is being won by criminals

 

 NY Post

 New York City car thieves have shifted into high gear, with auto thefts soaring 61% so far this year, according to the latest disturbing statistics.

There have been 4,467 car thefts so far in 2022, as compared to 2,769 in the same time period in 2021. The crime category has jumped a whopping 97 percent compared to 2020, NYPD data show. 

The Ford Econoline is the preferred vehicle of the sticky-fingered set, followed by the Honda Accord, Honda CRV, Honda Civic and Toyota Camry, according to the NYPD.

Bronx motorists have been hit the hardest: 1,437 vehicles have been boosted so far this year in the borough, the most in the city, and a 70% spike from the same time last year, when 845 cars were stolen, the stats show.

In Brooklyn 1,183 vehicles have been ripped off in 2022, compared to 806 in 2021, a 47% surge.

Auto larceny in Queens is up 63% in 2022, with 1,107 incidents to 678 the year prior, and has jumped 62 percent in Manhattan, which saw 604 thefts to 2021’s 373 incidents, the data shows.

Even Staten Island, the so-called “cop borough,” isn’t safe. While The Rock has logged the fewest car
thefts in the city this year which 136, that number is deceiving — it’s an 103 percent increase from the 67 vehicles snatched last year.

Just wait until the prisons come to residential areas. You think it's bad now, just wait. They will get out of jail, walk 2 blocks away then steal a car. Or they will take the subways and start harassing people. Either way, its not going to be a good outcome.

That's great news. Let's hope that they resell these in another city or another country preferably.

Paid criminals in City Hall and Albany who religiously practice and rake in their graft equals brazen, unpaid criminals who have no regard for their own lives of crime, sociopathy and psychopathy, much less anyone else's lives who are in the way of their openly practicing CRIME WAVE and endless crime sprees. The only difference is that the paid criminals of government depravity have legitimized their heinous acts of recklessness and profligate, wanton waste, mismanagement and intense incompetent. Don't rely on this government, or any government for that matter, to ever provide honest, ethical leadership that leads by example: That's in the next life!

So you keep saying ad nauseam. If you haven't left, what's stopping you leaving now? If you are already gone or in federal prison somewhere down south, surely there's something better you could do with your time, like watching grass grow or hanging out at the local
dollar general?

I have never voted straight ticket, even at the local level. No more. If there is a democrat running unopposed for a position I'm writing in my own name. I won't even give them a vote in the shoe-in positions. Barring any shenanigans during and shortly after election night, November is going to be cataclysmic for the dems. Also Elon Musk Announces He's QUITTING Voting Democrat And Will Now Vote Republican, GOP Red Wave Coming.

Gas is $5.15 for regular in Bayside. If it serious gets higher than $5 it’s going to cause a big recession. When people start losing jobs they won’t accept Excuses like Russia.

The Death spiral for cars.

Seems like a bargain to me. See if you can buy a gallon of beer for $5.15 ?
If you can't afford $5.15 for a gallon of gas, either get a real job or sell your car. Or both!

Car thieves are performing a great service to our community. Just like bank robbers, they should be rewarded instead of persecuted.

“War on cars” –what bullshit. There are more of the goddamn things than ever!

I have to go around three of the five boroughs visiting our locations and the traffice is FAR worse than it was even ten years ago.

All of these ride app’s and precious yuppies who just can’t go to a store have spawned a mass increase in truck traffic –often double parked while the serfs load bins of those goofy bicycle rickshaws.

As for oil prices, look no further than Wallstreet: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/12/23/why-high-gas-prices-are-more-about-wall-street-than-the-white-house.html

https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/12/business/oil-gas-biden-portugal-tesla-nightcap/index.html

After a lot of small oil drilling co’s went bankrupt in the glut of oil resulting from the fracking and shale boom followed by the pandemic, the “masters of the universe” AKA: Wallstreet have decreed that prices shall stay high…and so it shall be.

Turn off the AM talk radio, get some facts.

Out of control crime in America is much worse than the traditional media such as newspapers, television, and radio are reporting. The sheeple better start caring.

TA commie and his comrades spreading more lies on QC. I find its funny when they get hit with the actual facts and realise that people are not willing to listen to big lies without proof. Most normal people have IQ's big enough to think for themselves.
