Its funny when there is a crime, people are crying for protection. When police do their jobs, people are screaming discrimination, racism and police brutality.

-resident The crime happened at 2:40 AM Yes the cop on the beat is a great deterrent but good crime prevention measures like this building management enacted are an even better deterrent as demonstrated in the fact this drug store cowboy came back twice and still didn’t get what he came for. Police can’t be everywhere. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

@resident Rudy Giuliani is no longer a crime fighting crusader. Rudy Giuliani and his law firm reap tens of thousands of dollars annually lobbying Congress for the biggest operator of private for profit prisons in America. This makes Rudy a crime profiteer.

Resident, do you have any idea how many officers walking foot patrol it would take to cover a geographic area the size of the 108?

Mayor Adams marks one year of ‘Padlock to Protect’ with pizza and progress in Queens

Mayor Eric Adams marked the one-year anniversary of the launch of the city’s “Operation Padlock to Protect” initiative at a pizzeria on the Rego Park and Middle Village border on Wednesday and touted the significant progress in shutting down more than 1,400 illegal smoke shops across the five boroughs and seizing more than $95 million in illegal product since last May.

“The city was fed up. We heard it at every town hall. This time last year, there were thousands of illegal smoke shops plaguing our city with unlicensed cannabis endangering our children,” Adams said. “One year later, we are proud to announce that we have turned the tide. Thanks to the tireless efforts by our city’s law enforcement officers, we’ve padlocked thousands of illegal shops and created safer streets for children and families. But we’re not stopping there.”
