There's like what, 8 million people in NYC, and millions use the subway daily and you're talking .75 incidents a day? Sure, but keep in mind this is about things like felony assault. If it was all crime that would be one thing, but saying something like "well we should be pretty lucky that only one person gets beaten with a pipe per day in the New York city subway" is still not really a frequency we should be comfortable with. https://abc7ny.com/amp/subway-crime-nyc-statistics-assault/14381702/ According to the NYPD, there were 570 reports of felony assault on trains or in stations in 2023, that's the highest number in more than 20 years and a 53% jump from pre-pandemic levels. In 2019, there were only 373 felony assaults reported. In 2024 so far, there have been 53 assaults reported, compared to just 40 this time last year. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
