When Zohran Mamdani takes over New York, he is likely to release almost half the criminals in Rikers Island into a city already racked by the crime that flourishes under liberal rule:

The infamous New York City prison has around 7,000 criminals on average and Mamdani cited a pro-crime proposal to reduce the number in there to only 3,700 criminals. …

Mamdani cited an article by an activist from the John Jay College of Criminal Justice…

Its proposals for cutting the Rikers population in half include no bail for first arrests “even in serious violent felony cases”, freeing three-quarters of criminals “facing violent felony charges”, exempting from prison those charged with a list of sentences that covers sexual misconduct, forcible touching, as well as sexual abuse in the second and third degrees, mandatory pre-trial release of criminals after a certain period, more early release for a variety of offenders including those who have committed assault and sexual abuse, and releasing criminals “who really do pose a flight risk” but offering them “employment assistance” to keep them from running away.

Crime stats are already shooting upward in the prelude to Mamdani taking power:

Over the last 28 day period in New York City, murder is up 19%, rape is up 38.9%, the number of shooting victims is up 36%.

Any remaining New Yorkers who are not moonbats are advised to get out ASAP and pray that Democrats are never able to inflict on the whole country what they are about to do to its largest city.
