In light of a recent subway murder, the Guardian Angels are reviving their patrols in New York City, aiming to address safety concerns. Founder Curtis Sliwa noted increased interest in joining the group, with plans to expand membership and training. The move follows a woman being set on fire by an illegal immigrant in the subway. Mayor Eric Adams's office criticized Sliwa's plans as 'meaningless stunts,' asserting the city is enhancing police presence. Discussions around bystander inaction in violent incidents have also emerged, framing the Guardian Angels as a community safety response.
