Teen shootout sends blue city residents running for cover as youth gangs surge ahead of mayoral race: expert
Story by Julia Bonavita • 6h

The exodus from New York City will be huge if 'communist' Mamdani becomes mayor, top Republican predicts
 

New York City has seen an alarming rise in juvenile crime since the state’s lax "Raise the Age Law" took effect, providing a startling incentive for gangs looking to exploit the Big Apple’s youth, one expert said.

The 2018 law, signed by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and endorsed by Gov. Kathy Hochul, raised the age of criminal responsibility from 16 to 18, ultimately allowing underaged defendants to avoid being tried as adults. The law also permits defendants as old as 21 to be held in juvenile detention facilities, instead of the typical adult centers.

However, one expert cautions the law incentivizes gang members to use juveniles to carry out serious crimes, pointing to the probability that the underaged defendant would not be tried as an adult.

What good news for democrats, communists, rinos, and Mamdani!  If a lot of people move out, the price of housing will go down, and they can buy housing more affordably at taxpayer expense for all the illegal aliens who move in. 0005a

So it will go from being a hell hole to a shit hole! Good plan.

From the article:
"The 2018 law, signed by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and endorsed by Gov. Kathy Hochul, raised the age of criminal responsibility from 16 to 18, ultimately allowing underaged defendants to avoid being tried as adults. The law also permits defendants as old as 21 to be held in juvenile detention facilities, instead of the typical adult centers."

Too many of the voters of New York City (and state) WANTED THIS.
They are getting WHAT THEY VOTED FOR.

(I realize that upstate there are many New Yorkers who did NOT vote for this, and know some of them personally. Too bad they have to live under the rule of idiots...)
