(TheRedAlertNews.com) – In an alarming testimony to the fact that criminal violence is surging in Democrat-run New York City, Curtis Sliwa’s historic Guardian Angels have resumed vigilant patrols, stating that “the subways are out of control.”

This bold step underscores the urgent need for citizen involvement amidst what some claim are ineffective city measures.
The Guardian Angels, a volunteer group founded in 1979, are set to increase their presence in NYC’s subways.
This decision follows a noticeable rise in violent crime, with recent incidents, including a horrific attack where a woman was burned alive.
This tragic event has rekindled public demand for the Angels’ involvement to protect the vulnerable.
The group, led by Curtis Sliwa, aims to conduct wellness checks on the homeless and emotionally disturbed, alerting police to potential dangers.
Sliwa has stated that crime levels have reached a peak not seen since the group’s inception.
One of their focuses is to calm situations involving troubled individuals while collaborating with law enforcement.
The increase in patrols comes as the subway system records ten murders this year, twice the number from last year.
In response, the Guardian Angels have organized 24/7 patrols, operating in teams of three across the F line.
Despite criticisms from city officials, these actions reflect a call for community-supported crime prevention strategies.
“We’re now back to where we were when I started the group in 1979 on the subways. It’s gone full circle. I’ve never seen it this bad. Never,” Sliwa said, cited by The New York Post.
Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul have increased police and National Guard presence, respectively, to address safety concerns.
The mayor’s spokesperson criticized these patrols as “meaningless stunts” and emphasizes that crime has decreased.
Yet, citizens continue to express skepticism over the effectiveness of these measures.
The resurgence of the Guardian Angels highlights the perceived gap between government efforts and the reality residents face.
Sliwa asserts that their presence is necessary to combat what he describes as out-of-control subway crime.
His group’s dedicated approach shows their commitment to ensuring public spaces remain secure.
The Guardian Angels’ efforts have garnered 70 new volunteer applicants, demonstrating a significant public desire for grassroots solutions.
This surge in support showcases New Yorkers’ readiness to actively fight back against the perceived transit chaos and affirms the Angels’ crucial role in community safety.
