After the latest NYC subway death, now there are 28 reported deaths thus far in 2023. The latest was caused when a criminal with severe mental issues threatened to kill everyone. He was subdued by 4 passengers and died after being placed in a choke hold by a marine. The police did not arrive to assist those who came forward for at least 15 minutes.
The question becomes we know the other 27 deaths were ruled murder. Why are people all up in arms about this death, yet ignored the previous 27 death ny murder incidents and also the attacks on women riding the subway?

The threaten to kill everyone is BS.
Thou shalt not lie and thou shalt not kill ... And yet, they lecture us everyday.

You should read the NY Post articles more carefully if you're going to try to just parrot their talking points uncredited. That is 27 since March of 2020.
As for what makes this different? Likely because of the filming of the victim in the chokehold. That usually creates a more visceral reaction.

Or maybe you just don't kill people by choking them during 15 minutes. Whoever they are and whoever you are.
