Return of the Guardian Angels is proof NY leaders are failing
Opinion by Post Editorial Board • 11h

A sure sign that New York leaders have utterly failed to made riders feel safe: The Guardian Angels are returning to the subways.

Founder Curtis Sliwa announced Sunday that the volunteer force will patrol the underground after a four-year hiatus in response to sky-high crime in the system and the vile arson murder of a suspected homeless woman on Dec. 22.
 
The Guardian chief said he wants to boost the group’s recruitment back up to 1970s numbers and increase training, claiming he’d “never seen” subway crime “this bad.”

As if to prove Sliwa’s point, a man’s throat was slashed during an argument on a C-train platform the next day.

Mayor Adams’ office dismissed the Angels’ return as a “meaningless stunt,” and it is indeed mostly symbolic — their patrols can only do wellness checks on the mentally disturbed and homeless, patrol cars and platforms for nefarious activity and alert cops to potential problems.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I hope they’ll be carrying fire extinguishers.
