Yes....since New York passed new law abiding, innocent civilian gun control laws....criminals don't obey them....the gun murder rate is up.....
As is pointed out in the article..the pattern from around the country emerges.....the gun murders are committed by gangs in small areas of the city...
And another thing...the one thing that kept their gun murder rate down....Stop and Frisk...ended...and now the gun murder rate is going up....
New York s SAFE Act Not Making New York City Safer - The Truth About Guns
I’m not a criminologist, but I’m thinking the court-ordered demised of the Big Apple’s equally unconstitutional “stop and frisk” policing policy – a decision with which I wholeheartedly agree – might have had something to do with the city’s firearms-related homicide surge. And quite the surge it is . . .
While overall crime is down 11 percent in 2015, there were 54 murders in the first two months of the year, compared to 45 last year, a 20 percent increase. There were 151 shootings, an increase of 20 percent as well. The number of shooting victims this year, 170, is up from 140 at this time last year...
Police brass say the majority of shootings are gang or crew related and that five areas are responsible for the spike: the 46th, 63rd, 67th, 75th and 102rd precincts.
The NYPD is considering putting extra resources in those troubled areas. It’s also already looking at where more officers should go for the summer months.
They had no need to further restrict gun rights for law abiding citizens...since from this story it is obvious that New York gangs are getting the guns they want and need to commit murder...and the new SAFE act isn't stopping them....it only stops law abiding citizens......
