Why do Dems care more about the Great Lawn than skyrocketing crime in Central Park?

New York City’s Global Citizen Festival, an annual concert aimed at raising money for the impoverished worldwide, has come under fire for the damage it has caused to Central Park’s Great Lawn. Last year alone, the festival caused $620,000 in damages to this iconic green space. This has sparked outrage from City Councilwoman Gale Brewer and State Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal, who are advocating for the festival to be moved to a different location.

While it’s important to protect Central Park and maintain its pristine condition, it’s also crucial to address the rising crime rates within the park. NYPD data shows a staggering 222% increase in robberies and a doubling of felony assaults compared to the same period in 2023. This alarming trend cannot be ignored, yet the focus seems to be more on preserving the park’s aesthetics rather than ensuring the safety of its visitors.

During a recent City Council meeting, Brewer suggested providing activities for young illegal immigrants as a solution to the crime spike. However, this approach overlooks the underlying issues contributing to the rise in criminal activity. It also raises concerns about the city’s priorities when it comes to addressing public safety.

The discrepancy in the city’s response to different forms of public disorder is evident. While some issues are dismissed or downplayed, others are met with swift action and outrage. This selective approach to addressing social problems highlights the need for a more comprehensive and equitable strategy for maintaining public order and safety in New York City.

It’s essential to strike a balance between preserving public spaces like Central Park and addressing the underlying issues that contribute to crime and disorder. By taking a more holistic approach to public safety and community well-being, the city can create a more inclusive and sustainable environment for all its residents and visitors.
