    Deblasio has made the city so unsafe. He’s taking the city back to the Dinkins era. This is what happens when you have liberals running big cities.

    That area when inhabited mostly by Jews and Italian Catholics was clean and peaceful. As the area’s population changed it became crime ridden, dirty and a mostly one, two and three story ghetto. Interesting that among the newest arrivals are Muslims and they are living peacefully. That said, there are many decent hardworking people of color there who thought they could escape the human drek that inhabit changed areas only to see the drek come on in as most whites fled. I would love to hear how liberals can explain whose fault that is. I’m sure they would blame it on everyone and everything else but the obvious.
