i think you saw the exchange between mayor glais deblasio and jon stewart on the daly show. complex factors many of which have little to do with how police do their jobs. studies have pointed to the effects of the economy, the aging population, lots of other things. why -- what makes you comfortable putting a lot of that aside and saying this is to do with cops being afraid to arrest and get involved in what might end up being a shooting of somebody? >> sure that's a good question ali and certainly there's a lot of theories about crime. but i think having been a resident of new york for the last 20 years, it's been in my experience dwiflt twix shown that the explanation for new york's record crime drop, is policing the aspect of it can be changed, poverty wasn't reversed, conservatives root cause, out of wedlock child-rearing probably didn't go down, it went up but policing changed. that deterred criminals from getting involved in crime. what we are seeing especially in baltimore which is a shining example of this, when arrests are down over 50% the police are really scared

the deblasio experiment must stop.ce this may i don't remember got in the city is drifted toward the old school hell of rape murder and assault. it's the progressive left's talent of taking a place and defile it. want to talk about a war on woman? yesterday a transgendered woman was pushed on to the subway tracks. part three, a woman was beaten and raped by three 16 year olds they left her bleeding to go ransack her apartment. so is far this year central park was home to six rapes. this time last year none. it's all happening during a crime wave under this left wing lurch. of the 135 homicides through may 98 were gun related up from the 69 at this point the last two years. the mayor blames this on a few high crime areas. that's a message to his white liberal supporters don't worry, you're safe in your door man buildings. so as he dee means cops kill stop and brisk which would have prevented gun deaths he let's the criminally unstable roam the streets like a real world version of the walking dead. these are the bubbles
