http://www.nma.tv New York City used to be a dangerous place, but crime dropped dramatically under Mayor Rudy Giuliani during the 90s and the early 00s. It seems The Big Apple is regressing. There were more than 65 shootings over the Labor Day holiday weekend alone. Mayor Bloomberg has blamed other states' lax firearms laws for the large number of guns on New York streets. However, crime at large is on the rise in the city, a stark contrast to the rest of the US and other nations. New Yorkers would be safer in Baghdad right now. There were zero US troop deaths during August in Iraq.
