Because it's too cold to be out shooting and stabbing people.

True, when it’s less than 20 degrees they go into hiding.

Shootings and murders are both down year over year though, not just this winter.

Yes random nights I hear gun shots as well. Citizens app catches it with shot tracer but I don't hear cops.

Dont care to read the article just comment on what you feel and want to believe instead? The article says through 2022, not just now when it is cold. what a sad state this website is in, the "best" comment. I am also shocked no one wants to read that part because it goes against the narrative of the sub and clearly paid propaganda posters who go after every city sub

If you've lived in New York this long you should know the cold season is usually quieter and calm with crime. When it's summer and everyone is out and about is when there is a sharp rise. OP posted but I doubt many clicked on the link to read the article. Many are typing from true experience.

While that's factually correct, it's also misleading in the context of this news.

The period in question is compared to the same period last year, which mostly cancels out seasonalities.

September and November 2022 was actually slightly warmer than the same months in 2021.

Perhaps you have the fragile ego. Why do you find it your duty to search for comments that are incorrect to your liking. Is it mature for you to attack people online for an apology? I have more than enough associates that are in the NYPD to know what's going on. If you feel insulted, reddit is not the place for you.

Someone just got Shinobi slashed on the LES this weekend.

Also heard shots fired and the a car peeling out last night.

There is a song by a rapper named Uncle Murda called “Summertime shootouts though.
