Homophobic attack in Greenwich village

I thought The Village is about as gay as Little Italy is Italian?

What a shithole city.

Goddamit. Who's the Qunt who keeps linking to the Daily Fail?

This would be one of our Meghan Markle trolls, r3. The Fail is their Bible.

The Village stopped being gay in the late 90s.

[quote] Goddamit. Who's the Qunt who keeps linking to the Daily Fail?

That would be me, asshole.

Also, The Mail is the number one news site on the entire internet. Why? Because it reports stories early and often, and has no paywall.

But since you can never stop complaining about anything, you ancient cunt, I say carry on Karen.

Most be all those Muslim refugees we took in.

All real Christian Americans LOVE gays

R3 What's your point? That the DM made this up or that it shouldn't be news? Hate crimes against Jews, Asians, and gays seem to be on the rise in NYC as are assaults on the subway.

Actually, the Village has been a place for the dregs of Newark and Jersey City to hang out via PATH.

Crimes like this are not punished severely enough.

If the person is convicted, it ought to be a lot more severe than what they'll likely get.

R6, needless to say you earned a lifetime supply of FFs, you overfed obsessed Qunt.

What a retard.

OH, it's so important to tell us all that it was a DOCTOR. That makes a real difference, right, OP? Not a drag queen or bartender or florist or antiques dealer or hairdresser or decorator or whatever else is less. A DOCTOR! That makes it WORSE, apparently.

Check your motives. Just because the link mentioned it doesn't mean your little words don't tell us something about you.

[quote]Goddamit. Who's the Qunt who keeps linking to the Daily Fail?

Are you trying to tell us the article is fake news?

Do you realize how ridiculous you sound?

It's not even in the top ten. Mind you, hardly shocking a Mail reader falls for a lie.

R13,The Daily Fail is a far-rt rag. But you knew that, Boris.

[quote] The Mail is the number one news site on the entire internet.

This takes the cake. Have you no shame?

The Mail is not the number one news site on the internet but of newspaper websites, it ranks second after the NYTimes.

R5 What in the article is false. Please tell us.

Thanks in advance.

This is what you New Yorkers get for voting in all these far-left socialist loonies who want to defund the police and want to let everyone run wild.

BTW I thought NYC is supposed to be the best city in the world according to some of you? Could have fooled me.

Yeah its been a long long time since Greenwich Village was a gay hub.

The gays moved up to Chelsea, then moved up to Hells Kitchen.

Sorry, the post at R18 is meant for R15

R19 Exactly who are the "socialist loonies" you're talking about, and exactly what legislation did they vote through which allowed this to happen?

R22 The retarded mayor DeCuntio and the retard AOC to name a few.

R19 Where do you live, Cletus? An outhouse in West Cowfucker, Oklahoma?

R13, you're as fucking stupid as the OP is

It's a good thing the gays have such a great relationship with cops......

Is he even gay?

Mayor Adams will end this shit.

Mayor Sliwa will end this shit.

[quote]they fucked that up

Gays did no such thing—maybe a few who are deeply self-loathing and are in desperate need to be liked by groups who despise them, but most gays certainly did not.

R23 And what legislation did they pass that caused this? Come on, we're all waiting to hear.

R25 What in the article is false. Please tell us.

Thanks in advance.

"Defund the Police" is a misnomer. Nobody who advocates for police reform actually means to actually defund them. Poor choice of words. Besides, I thought you guys were nostalgic for the wild-west, anything-goes, danger-at-every-corner atmosphere of 1970s/80s NYC, as opposed to the the Disney World it has become.

r9 is correct. The dregs of society come over from New Jersey on the Path train. If you go to the area at Christopher Street and the Hudson River on any night, you see large groups of black people playing music as loud as their speakers will let them. And Washington Square Park is quickly becoming a no-go zone. These are not residents of the West Village. Call me raciss if you must, but it's quite clear who is causing the trouble.

R33 but disbanding the anti-crime unit was real and a mistake and looking at what's happening in Washington Scare Park this year and last summer's lootings and destruction the police have been seemingly ordered to stand back. And De Blasio doesn't see a need to hire more police though he had police protecting the BLM mural in front of Trump Tower 24/7.

R34 and people from Queens, the Bronx and Brooklyn travel into the city by subway and those boroughs see random gunfire and people struck by stray bullets daily.

Lol, trying to blame crime on people from New Jersey. There are plenty of poor people in New York city itself.

And no reports of assaults, slashings, hammerings . . . on the NJ Path unlike the NY subway system.

R36, very specific neighborhoods in the boroughs have continual violence and this has increased a great deal in the past 15 months.

I was bashed when Giuliani was mayor. Is he responsible for that, like DeBlasio is apparently responsible for this? Are all far-right alcoholic republicans responsible for that? Please thrall me with your analysis.

[quote]Impromptu boxing matches, complete with referees and time keepers, have also become a fixture.

This certainly isn't any Greenwich Village residents.

No description of the attacker?

If no description then you know who…or what.

[quote]I was bashed when Giuliani was mayor. Is he responsible for that, like DeBlasio is apparently responsible for this? Are all far-right alcoholic republicans responsible for that? Please thrall me with your analysis.

The difference is that there is a huge uptick in violent crime under De Blasio's administration. Here's another example of an anti-gay crime about a block away. Ask yourself why are there so many anti-gay attacks in the West Village?

[quote] No description of the attacker?

There won't be and we all know why. The same reason posters like R3 and R7 and are complaining that this is in the news and that this thread is even being posted. I expect OP will soon be crossed out.

In all the arrests made in the shootings, slashings, robberies or attacks on Asians. . .I wasn't aware that any of the perpetrators were from NJ.

We knew the stench of R34 would arrive soon enough

Hold on, as a white gay man surely his life is easy? I mean there was that video of the girl judging all white gay men as extremely privileged and is being retweeted in support by MANY white gay men on twitter.

R44 there really...hasn't been a huge uptick in crime. Crime has increased. I've noticed. But your kind of paranoid fear mongering does no good.

Also, crime has gone up in every city in the US, those run by Republicans and Democrats, in red states and blue states. It is less so in NYC than in others but a lot of people on the DL love to hate-wank over DeBlasio's perceived failures.

Enjoy the summer in Sandusky, Ohio, tho!

I live in the West Village, you cretin. I see what's going on firsthand. Are you posting from your mother's trailer in Mississippi?

You must never leave your 400 sq ft rent controlled dump.

But still - be happy. You got your Republican Nazi Cop Daddy in office and everything will be better!

It's so funny that you can never please resentful fascists.

(Lot of trolls in this thread. I’m guessing far-right Freeper-types must search the internet for trigger words like Homophobic. Their hate and anger know no bounds).

Not too long ago a report of a gay man being assaulted would have led to outrage and a call for police to arrest the perpetrator ( s) and get justice for the gay community and the victim. Now, the source is questioned, other states are blamed, and the victim of the attack is all but forgotten under the weight of the blame game. How things have changed around here.

[quote]Who's the Qunt who keeps linking to the Daily Fail?

Here's an NBC report if you want to read about it elsewhere

The crime is happening in all neighborhoods and is often described as 'random' or 'unprovoked' and since Adams who recently won the Democratic primary is actually talking about crime and police reform it seems voters i.e. New Yorkers see crime as a real concern. Tourists and businesses may be slow to return unless they see the city as safe.

Oh please R54 the posters that bring up these instances just want to talk shit about black people and homeless people they don’t give a flying fuck about the guy that got hit.

Black on Arab crime

This is the problem with social media, too many aspirational people now. These troglodytes used to stay in their own sections, now they want to carouse, start fights, blast simian music and shake their donkey booties all over wealthy civilized areas, where they obviously don’t belong.

2 teens fatally shot hours apart in Queens, the Bronx Wednesday (WCBS Radio) Blame Jersey!

R60 it was probably some old white WASP ladies from the Upper East Side

I was bashed in almost that exact same spot in like 1995? If the crime numbers under DeBlasio returned to the exact same numbers as under Giuliani's best year, the cop gays on this thread would burn down City Hall.

Yet they happily blame this terrible thing on AOC, who had nothing to do with it, and DeBlasio, who really had nothing to do with it but is sort of responsible since he's Mayor, and then they ran out of liberal boogeymen to blame.

[quote]I expect OP will soon be crossed out.

Damn right, you racist shit-stirring piece of shit. You don't think we know why you're linking to that right-wing shit rag, The Daily Fail?

That's why we called you out on that early, you retarded Qunt. Then of course you and your socks proceed to post racist comment after racist comment to flesh out your real intent. This was nothing but yet another race-baiting anti-black/anti-minority thread.

Fuck off back to Parler and your equally retarded orange overlord's latest failed project, Guttr.

Will this be reported in the NY Times?

Since we learned the police will not stop us from jumping the MTA toll booths we have become much more mobile. Thank you Mayor deBlasio.

[quote]Call me raciss if you must, but it's quite clear who is causing the trouble.

It’s the same story in every city across America. It’s always the same group that makes up 13% of the population that causes almost all of the trouble everywhere.

And the response by white liberals in their white liberal bubbles is "let's pretend it's not happening!"

R3 the story was reported on three TV stations, The Post, and Daily News.

R9 right you are.

R23 Cuomo and state legislators relaxed the bail laws. Why should cops arrest anyone when the perp be on the street within hours - with no bail and no jail time.

Yeah why should cops do the job they're paid for unless they're guaranteed someone who shoplifts a pair of headphones won't rot in jail for life? Logic!

R66 New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Portland with the highest crime rates are run by Democrats. Yesterday deBlasio tried to tell us assaults are down.

Is he a real doctor or Jill Biden fake ass type?

The doctor is actually from my home town. Theres no point in talking about any of this,since we arent allowed to point out who is responsible for 90% of this shit. Until that happens,its just going to continue. I'll be glad when this finally reaches critical mass and we get some folks in office who will address and DO something about it. Its everywhere,in every major city ,and its the same fucking people doing it and we all know it .

Wow the Klan hoods really come out at night, don't they.

Faggot. Let's not be 3 year olds. Shame.

Faggot R76 ? Bitch,Ive been called much worse by much better men than you . Its the truth and I dont give a fuck what you think about it. Sometimes the truth is ugly,but it doesnt make it any less the truth. I promise you this though,if you said that to my face you'd be spitting your partials out .

People have been saying for years to close that fucking PATH station.

[quote]Yesterday deBlasio tried to tell us assaults are down.

And New York City would be wise to vote for Sliwa.

Democrats do not make good mayors and that’s just the truth. Let the Democrats run at the federal and state level, and let Republicans run at the local level.

It would be disappointing if Adams won—just more of the same: corruption, left-wing, attacks on Jews, attacks on gays.

R80 What does Sliwa want to do? Declare martial law? Or clown law, I guess, since it's Sliwa?

Looks to me like he's totally out.

Are we sure he's a doctor?

As soon as he was declared winner of the Democratic primary, he went out and got his ear pierced. Something about a promise he made to some kids. Oh, he'll be a sweeeeeeelllllllllll mayor!

Yes—hold your nose and vote Sliwa.

Then be prepared for Adams to change policy everytime the wind blows. If he gets his ear pierced because a couple of kids dare him to, then who else will be pander to?

Are we sure he's a doctor?

He looks more like a "rich Russian lady" rentboy whore.

Okay politics people, take it to another thread please.

This one is about the ATTACK on a gay man.

Who gives a fuck what he looks like? He just got the shit beaten out of him on the street.

I think I saw him in the Burt Reynolds Dinner Theater production of "Fiddler on the Roof".

Hes fucking gorgeous . Pity about the shaved chest,I bet hes got a lovely mat of hair .

Hate Crimes Under Trump Surged Nearly 20 Percent Says FBI Report

BY DANIEL VILLARREAL ON 11/16/20 AT 7:57 PM EST

ate crimes have surged nearly 20 percent during the administration of President Donald Trump, according to a new FBI report on hate crime statistics. The report also shows that hate-motivated murders, largely committed by white supremacists, spiked to their highest number in 28 years.

The FBI's annual reports on hate crime statistics show that hate crimes have increased from 6,121 incidents in 2016 to 7,314 in 2019, a 19.49 percent increase.

Hate-motivated murders spiked to a total of 51 in 2019, the highest number in nearly 3 decades, according to an analysis of the FBI's data conducted by the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism (CSHE) at California State University. The next-highest number of hate-motivated murders occurred in 2018 with 24 murders. The third-highest number occurred in 1993 and 1995, with 20 murders happening each of those years.

The 2019 tally of total hate crimes represents the highest level reported by the FBI in almost a decade. The second-highest annual total of hate crime incidents in the last decade occurred in 2010 with 7,699 incidents.

Of 2019's hate crimes, 57.6 percent were motivated by race, ethnicity or ancestry; 20.1 percent were motivated by religion; 16.7 percent were motivated by sexual orientation; 2.7 percent by gender identity; 2 percent by disability and 0.9 percent by gender.

These percentages all fall within 2 percent points of previous totals reported by the FBI over the last four years.

A majority of the hate crime incidents occurred in California, New York, Washington, New Jersey and Texas.

Hate crimes rose by 226 percent in counties where Trump hosted campaign rallies in 2016: study

BY ARIS FOLLEY - 03/23/19 07:45 PM EDT

United States counties where President Trump hosted a campaign rally in 2016 saw a 226 percent increase in reported hate crimes compared to similar counties that did not host one, an analysis released by The Washington Post has revealed.

The analysis, which was published on Friday, was conducted by Ayal Feinberg, a Ph.D. candidate in political science at the University of North Texas, and Regina Branton and Valerie Martinez-Ebers, two political science professors at the university.

They said their research sought to explain how some of Trump’s rhetoric "may encourage hate crimes."

The analysis examined whether there was a correlation between counties that held a Trump rally in 2016 and increased incidents of hate crimes in the months that followed such events.

"To test this, we aggregated hate-crime incident data and Trump rally data to the county level and then used statistical tools to estimate a rally’s impact," the three wrote.

"We included controls for factors such as the county’s crime rates, its number of active hate groups, its minority populations, its percentage with college educations, its location in the country and the month when the rallies occurred," they continued.

The study's authors said their findings revealed that counties that hosted one of Trump’s 275 campaign rallies in 2016 saw a 226 percent increase in reported hate crimes compared to comparable counties that didn’t host a rally.

"We examined this question, given that so many politicians and pundits accuse Trump of emboldening white nationalists," they said in The Washington Post.

They also said their analysis "cannot be certain" it was the president’s rhetoric at his campaign rallies that caused people to commit more hate crimes in the counties.

But the three said that suggestions this effect can "be explained through a plethora of faux hate crimes are at best unrealistic."

"In fact, this charge is frequently used as a political tool to dismiss concerns about hate crimes," they said. "Research shows it is far more likely that hate crime statistics are considerably lower because of underreporting."

"Additionally, it is hard to discount a 'Trump effect' when a considerable number of these reported hate crimes reference Trump," the group continued. "According to the [Anti-Defamation League’s] 2016 data, these incidents included vandalism, intimidation and assault."

The analysis also pointed to FBI data from 2017 that showed a 17 percent increase in reported hate crimes over 2016.

Democrats have long lambasted the president for emboldening white nationalism, claims Trump has strongly denied.

Shortly after a deadly gun attack at two mosques in New Zealand that left 50 people dead last week, Trump was asked whether he sees a rise in white nationalism.

"I don't really. I think it’s a small group of people that have very, very serious problems," he told reporters in the Oval Office. "If you look what happened in New Zealand, perhaps that’s the case. I don’t know enough about it yet."

Developments in that tragedy, including a manifesto believed to have belonged to the suspected shooter that said he supported Trump "as a symbol of renewed white identity," also have renewed debate about the president’s rhetoric and whether he is responsible for stoking white nationalism.

Nation’s deadliest domestic terrorist inspiring new generation of hate-filled ‘monsters,’ FBI records show

In several recent FBI investigations, the Oklahoma City bomber has appeared.

“A mass casualty event like the Oklahoma City bombing is … meant to provoke further violence," noted Kathleen Belew, a University of Chicago historian who has studied the development of modern white supremacy. "It’s meant to incite people, to awaken them to what people in this movement see as a state of emergency confronting the white race.”

The ABC News review of cases invoking McVeigh is part of “Homegrown Hate: The War Among Us,” an hour-long documentary premiering Tuesday on ABC News Live that examines white supremacy’s violent comeback.

A 'huge wake-up moment' in Charlottesville The FBI has said McVeigh was motivated by a desire to topple the U.S. government, but in a media interview before he was executed in June 2001, McVeigh also described members of the white power movement as his “brothers in arms.”

That era “was kind of the last time” that the nation focused on right-wing extremism, because the 9/11 attacks just a few months later diverted attention overseas, according to Elizabeth Neumann, the recently-departed head of threat prevention and security policy at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Radical forms of racism then largely remained “masked” for decades – until the presidential campaign of 2016 inflamed divisions inside America and hate crimes began to rise again, added Neumann, who has since spoken out against President Donald Trump since leaving his administration.

“For many of us,” she said, “a huge wakeup moment” came in August 2017, when a “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, attracted white supremacists from across the country, who chanted racist slogans and clashed with counter-protesters, leaving one woman dead.

R109 Over 100 people shot in Chicago last weekend. I wonder what the tally will be this weekend. And ABC news is still talking about Oklahoma City 1995?

[quote] Vote for a Republican mayor for NYC. Dems have ruined it.

The fall of NC crime rates began under Democratic Mayor David Dinkins.

Violent crime in New York began falling three years before Giuliani took office in 1994, U.S. Justice Department records show. Property crime began falling four years before. The decline accelerated during his administration, but the "turnaround" he claims credit for started before him.

• New York was no anomaly, but was part of a trend that saw crime fall sharply nationwide in the 1990s, particularly in big cities. The city with the best record for reducing violent crime during this period? San Francisco.

• Independent studies generally have failed to link the tactics of the Giuliani administration with the large decrease in crime rates.

Rather, many criminologists believe the decline in New York, as in Chicago, San Diego, Miami and elsewhere, was the result of a complex mix of social and demographic changes, including a break in the crack cocaine epidemic, an improving economy, and increased prison terms for proven lawbreakers.

Better policing tactics and policies were likely part of it, experts say, but not to the extent Giuliani claims.

"Demographics have an awful lot to do with this, and these are very, very large social forces," said Jeffrey Fagan, co-director of the Center for Crime, Community and Law at the Columbia Law School in New York. "It's hard to imagine policing, no matter how smart and effective it is, giving the kind of leverage ... to move a macro force like crime."

Will anything really change if one is elected over the other?

White supremacists present the gravest terror threat to the United States, according to a draft report from the Department of Homeland Security.

Two later draft versions of the same document — all of which were reviewed by POLITICO — describe the threat from white supremacists in slightly different language. But all three drafts describe the threat from white supremacists as the deadliest domestic terror threat facing the U.S., listed above the immediate danger from foreign terrorist groups.

“Foreign terrorist organizations will continue to call for Homeland attacks but probably will remain constrained in their ability to direct such plots over the next year,” all three documents say.

Russia “probably will be the primary covert foreign influence actor and purveyor of disinformation and misinformation in the Homeland,” the documents also say.

Former acting DHS Sec. Kevin McAleenan last year directed the department to start producing annual homeland threat assessments. POLITICO reviewed three drafts of this year’s report — titled DHS’s State of the Homeland Threat Assessment 2020 — all of which were produced in August. Ben Wittes, the editor in chief of the national security site Lawfare, obtained the documents and shared them with POLITICO. The first such assessment has not been released publicly, and a DHS spokesperson declined to comment on “allegedly leaked documents,” and on when the document will be made public.

None of the drafts POLITICO reviewed referred to a threat from Antifa, the loose cohort of militant left-leaning agitators who senior Trump administration officials have described as domestic terrorists. Two of the drafts refer to extremists trying to exploit the “social grievances” driving lawful protests.

This thread is about a hate crime. Hate Crimes increased dramatically under guess who Trump former president/current leader of the Republican Party. Most of the victims were Muslims, black and brown people. The Department of Homeland Security has warned that white supremacist domestic terror is our biggest threat. Already existing hatred, encouraged and unleashed by Trump. Its here to stay.

Dinkins is a deplorable example. He turned a blind eye and allowed an anti-Jewish pogrom incited by the Bigot Sharpton to fester for days. Jews and those mistaken for Jews were attacked and murdered by black thugs.

Who keeps spamming the thread with non-New York related articles about white supremacists? This thread is about New York City, damn it, white supremacists are NOT a problem here.

Kathryn Garcia had the most NYC govt experience, and was endorsed by the NYT and Daily News, but she ran a reticent campaign and a lot of people didn't even notice her. Although she rallied at the end with absentee ballots and came close to beating fascist Eric Adams, who isn't very smart.

I really hope all these problems cause real estate implosion in NYC. I plan to move there but can't afford it at current prices.

You missed your chance. The smart hedge funds swooped in on the depressed market. Prices now are rising.

Pending Sales in New York State were up 31.9 percent to 35,855.

Closed Sales increased 27.5 percent to 32,534. Inventory shrunk 30.1 percent to 36,739 units.

Prices gazed upward as the Median Sales Price was up 23.1 percent to $357,000.

Average Sales Price rose by +18.3% to $448,634.

Days on Market decreased 17.3 percent to 67 days.

Don't you all know how the online Nazis work?

If there's a hate crime, or indeed any crime, in a city run by a Democrat - it's the Democrat's fault.

If the city happens to be in a state run by Republicans, it's the Democrat's fault.

If the country happens to be run by a Republican, it's the Democrat's fault.

It literally does not matter who has any authority anywhere. It's Democrats' fault.

Oh! And any crime that happened when Giuliani was mayor of New York is Democrat's fault.

And any crime that happened under Bloomberg is Democrat's fault.

Falling crime rates under DeBlasio are all lies.

The lefty DA who won in Philly is the result of ballot tampering. The lefty DA who won in Manhattan will result in the return of Snake Pliskin. But the new right-wing mayor of NYC is the result of the righteous emergence of fed-up, terrified crime victims taking their city back!!!

Also, the election of a very lefty City Council is the result of letting too many immigrants to steal votes and that Chicago is the nexus of all evil and the fact that it is right near Indiana which has the most lax gun laws in the nation is utterly meaningless, it's the Democrat's fault.

"Right-wing" is a meaningless oligarchic scareword designed to scare the sheeple into conformity. We need to start bashing back.

I think that we as society need to ease up on the "hate crime" rhetoric. It's a crime no matter who it is done to.

Do we know that this man is gay? The guy who struck him called him a slur, but it he was mentally ill, that doesn't necessarily mean he targeted a gay person. He could have just struck out on the first person he saw.

I don’t know if that guy is gay either—he said “why was I attacked?” I thought that was odd for a gay man to say. I mean, you were attacked because you’re gay, right?

Time for gays to start bashing breeders.

I think the online Nazis sat around and decided to start randomly inserting the word "oligarchy" randomly into any sentence to make it seem like their racism isn't ultimately in the service of the 1%.

Nazi = National Socialism = Socialism = the shell game of the 1% to make a slave feel like a master.

The hysteria that is being pushed by media about crime makes me laugh - but also makes me sad. People want easy answers. “More cops” will solve it. “Scare” these people into not committing crimes by making them sit and think deep thoughts about what life would be like to spend a long time in jail (because, you know, criminals are very rational, thoughtful, analytical types).

These are mostly crazy, damaged people from crazy, damaged childhoods. And drug addicts. The question is what to do to prevent this - not how much revenge can we get. The abortion/crime correlation is the perfect example. It has very little to do with police, insanely long prison sentences, maximizing incarceration. Tired of people reading biased, uninformed propaganda that serves as news for most today - and trying to find quick easy fixes.

Have lived in West Village 31 years. The idea that this “crime wave” is worse than it’s ever been is laughable BS. Yes, there are more mentally ill than there were 3 years ago. No it has absolutely no comparison to crime in the late 1980s/1990s - when people were flooding to to the West Village to gentrify because it was so much “safer”.

The reactionary politics of the internet age are herding us all towards an emotional mob rule rather than practical solutions to the complicated results of modern capitalism.

Believe me, the blacks who are overwhelmingly committing these crimes have no interest in politics and couldn't tell the difference between a Democrat or a Republican. It's the sickness and rot of the culture within the black community that's causing all of these problems, and only they can fix it themselves.

But they will not R155–so what do we do? Move away.

The Nazi at R153 plays these stupid, transparent word games. The "national" in "national socialism" refers to the German nation. That is, free stuff from the Government was OK as long as it went to the right people (i.e. Germans) and not to the wrong people (Jews, Communists, foreigners, but mostly Jews).

Not sure how different this is from mainstream Republican policy, that is, government handouts are fine for approved subgroups - farmers, vets, old people, middle-class homeowners - but outgroups - blacks, city dwellers, immigrants - need to feel the full force of a police state.

No, R156. Just keep voting Republican and they'll fund a police force to exact vengeance against the group you hate and fear. You're the perfect republican.

Historical ignoramus R157 is ignorant. National Socialism is socialism. They allied with a nonwhite nation. They allied with the Soviet Union. They supported socialized medicine. They performed sex changed operations. They increased state control over businesses. They were socialist in name and in practice.

I need to start voting Republican.

National Socialism is socialism. Hitler allied with Stalin.

[quote] Do we know that this man is gay?

Did you not see his pics in R84?

At first I thought that was Raffi.

R161 How long did the pact last, idiot? Or are you going to pretend that Hitler didn't invade the Soviet Union? You are really pathetically incompetent as a propagandist.

Hitler never betrayed Tojo, R164. Tojo wasn't white.

R165 So is your point--if it can be called that--that since Hitler made a strategic alliance with the Japanese, he therefore wasn't racist? (The Japanese were ferociously racist toward the Chinese, by the way, which perhaps partly explains Hitler's admiration of Japan.) Then how do you explain the reams of Nazi writings delineating racial hierarchies--Teutonic races superior to the Slavs and superior to the Latin races, etc. All nonsense, of course, but all written down and in the historical record, idiot.

Hitler's so-called betrayal of the Russians was just another act of white-on-white violence.

He remained allies with Tojo up until the end.

Name one nonwhite leader of the Allies.

R167 Manuel Quezon of the Philippines. If you're capable of it, please state in a concise way what your point is.

Can you fucking retards take your Hitler and Russia shit to another thread? This is about a man in the year 2021 getting the shit beat out of him by a feral animal in Greenwich Village. Jesus Fucking Christ.

I love how R165 thinks a two-year-long strategic convenience translates into "Hitler was a communist" and thus AOC is a Nazi and thus CHECK-MATE LIBS!

Or something.

Gosh his meds need to be made stronger.

You can fuck off too r170.

I'm not following the Germany stuff above. Did they catch a suspect?

You're not the mayor of the fucking thread, R170 so go eat glass.

R169 You seem charming.

R71, when they don't arrest people for small crimes, the same scum are free to go on to bigger crimes. Or is that too logical for your to understand?

With any luck Adams will quietly consult Bill Bratton or Ray Kelly on how to cut the crime problem. When they worked for Rudy and Mike people felt safe to walk the streets.

I love people who think Adams is going to win.

I love NYC but now when walking in some neighborhoods I feel unsafe and with good reason. I’m a 30s y.o. White man. So much for white privilege.

[quote]With any luck Adams will quietly consult Bill Bratton or Ray Kelly on how to cut the crime problem.

Unfortunately, the problem is on the state level. The "eliminate bail" law really hit NYC hard.

Racism.

R101, they're increasing under Biden. Blacks are disproportionally perpetuators of hate crimes and violent crimes especially.

R180, But how do we get Cuomo and the legislators, who never consulted police of DAs when they created the new rules, to amend the law?

[quote]But how do we get Cuomo and the legislators, who never consulted police of DAs when they created the new rules, to amend the law?

Move out of the state like everyone else. When New York State has to file for bankruptcy because there are no taxpayers left, maybe the rest of the progressives will be wake up.

Why can't we round them up and send them to labor camps like China does with their undesirables?

Reeducation camps^

R185 Because we don't want to live in a dictatorial hellscape dystopia, you fucking idiot.

No R187. Muslims need to be taught how to live in a civilized society—otherwise it’ll be chaos and terrorism.

R187 Oh, now we're back to Muslims? I thought the right-wing hate target now was black people.

Hitler commandeered the existing National Socialist Party but practiced capitalism as a leader. The title of that party has as much to do with the economic system of Hitler’s Germany as the Democratic Republic of China has to do with Democracy,

Hitler didn’t turn over any companies to the population to run, which would have been socialism.

So the tying of Socialism to Hitler is and has always been bullshit propaganda to promote capitalism

Federal hate crime laws were created as a way to get the federal DOJ involved when state AGs refuse to act. This, of course, was a terrible problem during the civil rights era but one can easily see state AGs ignoring homophobic crimes too.

R176's logic is inescapable. "Let's lock up shoplifters for 20 years on the off chance that they kill someone. But don't raise my taxes to feed and house them! Make them work for their own room and board!"

Sounds like a system we had in this country till 1865....

I smell Boris all up in this thread.

Let's just ignore reality, r193. If the perps were white, you'd be all over it like flies on shit.

I just hope that DL is being invaded by Russian and right wing trolls. Because if this is coming from gay men, this country is truly doomed. If we, who have survived some of the most brutal effects of the right wing ideology, have succumbed to the reactionary middle-American view of cities as cesspools of crime and simplistic “lock em up and throw away the key” solutions to crime, then what hope is there that Fox Newsers will ever understand what drives crime?

Honestly, the occasional anti-Dem threads were getting to me during the election. But lately this has become such a cesspool of reactionary, right wing propaganda, that I’m starting to finally become i addicted to DL. It’s no longer fun, light and bitchy gayness - it’s become like the Breitbart comment section.

^ UNaddicted.

I’ve realized it may be a blessing I disguise. Time to put away DL to the past along with the formerly interesting sites that were entertains and worthwhile.

R193 Yes Mr. Stalin attack anything that doesn't snugly fit into your narrative.

I think at some point the format is going to have to change to get rid of all the Trolls. Sometimes you notice that there is an explicitly Pro-Right wing post and it gets a bunch of likes. That tells me how many trolls/troll accounts are working this board. They are doing the same shit of boards frequented to blacks. Probably Latinos too. Divide and conquerat its most basic.

This site should only attack gays, Jews, lesbians, women, and whites. That’s it.

r195/198 this board is populated by gay men who live in cities. Gay men who have either been attacked ourselves or know others who have been attacked. The crime problem is escalating. We can't help it if the perps are black. Your ridiculous reaction is also part of the reason why things are not changing and criminals are not being held accountable.

[quote] It’s no longer fun, light and bitchy gayness - it’s become like the Breitbart comment section.

Because gay men should only talk about reality shows and Madonna. We're not real people living in the real world and discussing real problems that affect us. Go fuck yourself you fucking cunt.

Really, R195? Expressing outrage that a gay man was attacked is "reactionary, right wing propaganda?"

You need to reexamine your way of thinking.

All crimes against homosexuality are capital crimes. Fry him.

And yes, Hitler was a socialist and thus a leftist. I pointed out multiple support of socialist policies and alliances with other socialists and POCs, and you systematically dismiss them for pointing out the gaping holes in The Narrative.

instances of

R195 Blinded by obsession with Trump , Boris, Russia . . .

R195=Karen Let me write a memo to the boss about the people at the water cooler who don't see everything the way I do.

R195 is Ling-Ling the Chinese troll.

TDS is real. It dominates people's thought process and enters into every conversation. #LATENITESOWHITEMALE talk show hosts suffer from it esp. Colbert and Kimmel and that's why they seem are so tired and boring and seem to be living in an alternate universe.

As a gay man who has lived in the neighborhood in which he was attacked for decades, a lot of what is being written here is reactionary and is responding to news being propagated about an attack that is part of a wider effort to define the uptick in crime in the past 2 years as a reason to reinstate everything that “cleaned up” - aka, killed - our city and neighborhood. The crime of the 80s and 90s was worse - period. The reaction that is being promoted here - which is exactly what happened to elect Giuliani and start stop and frisk and give police free rein to arrest anybody for anything - is what killed the city I loved. Yell, scream and read the horrible news stories in your suburbs. I don’t want you “moderate” gay men policing my neighborhood. Worry about your own neighborhood - we are just fine in the West Village. Just like the gentrifierS who complained about all the “uptown kids” hanging out on Christopher St causing problems, if you want a pristine, safe, homogenous world move to Singapore.

R209 What killed the city I loved and lived in for 18 years (1988-2006) was the proliferation of corporate chains, over building with towering skyscrapers and hence over crowding, the expense, the end of nightlife with Splash, The Tunnel, The Roxy . . .all closing, Times Square becoming Disneyland, Broadway filled with juke-box musicals and film-stage adaptations for the tourists, the Adderall zombies on their phones, Citi Bikes . . .it was no longer unique or a place that cultivated art or artists.

This is real reason for an uptick in violence against Jews, gays, and Asians in NYC?

*the real reason

I doubt the gay bashings have anything to do with bad shows on Broadway.

No, but it’s just a deflection, R213.

R211 R213 That clearly wasn't my point. The city has lost its appeal for many reasons and the uptick in violence is just the latest reason why NY is a must to avoid. Selective reading is like selective hearing you read into something what you want and stupidly argue something that was never stated or implied.

R198, because someone doesn't agree with you doesn't make them a troll. If you don't like what they say, skip to the next message.

I'm so happy there are so many people on these threads with a seething hatred of NYC. Do us and yourself a favor and never ever ever ever come here and we promise never to visit whatever meth-ed out strip mall shithole you call home.

R217 You are getting your wish and that is why the economy is in trouble, so many businesses have closed or moved, so much office space is vacant and the homeless feel free to inhabit any neighborhood.

People like what New York City was.

R203 You're a fucking idiot. If Hitler was a leftist why was he so obsessed with the idea that "Jewish Bolshevism" emanating from the Soviet Union was the greatest enemy Germany faced, to the point where he suicidally waged total war against them? If he was a leftist why did he murder and imprison countless leftists? Don't bother to answer, moron troll.

Cool R218! Now you can take your in-demand skills, which include paranoia, race-baiting and shit-posting, and put them to work to improve where YOU live! Which is where, exactly?

R221 Moskva

If he was so obsessed with "Jewish Bolshevism" then why did he ally with Stalin?

And if Jews are to blame for communism, then explain why Marx, who was raised as a Lutheran before becoming an atheist, blamed the Jews for capitalism and did not spare the Jews from his hatred of religion:

Because Hitler was a deeply cynical opportunist?

Weak.

R221 Live where there is a quality of life, safety, breathable air, less noise and sane people. Not hard to find outside of NYC, San Francisco, LA. Baltimore, Chicago . . .

R223 I think you're the stupidest person I've ever come across. The alliance with the Soviet Union was strategic. It suited Hitler's short-term needs. The minute he felt it was safe to tear up, he did so, and attacked the Soviets with everything he. Is that really so hard to grasp? Marx's family were secular Jews on both sides. His father converted to Christianity because most careers were closed to Jews.

You admitted my point. Marx was a Christian.

R227: That alliance was more than just "strategic." It was consistent with Nazi economic and social policy.

Note that he did not betray Tojo.

All of the Hitler responses is an attempt at obfuscation - to avoid the real problem and change the focus of the thread.

The same mentality behind this attack is what led Hitler to kill homosexuals. Stalin was also homophobic as the USSR banned homosexuality.

R229 I'm done with the Hitler-was-a-socialist idiot.

Because you've got nothing to refute it. The National Socialists were very much socialists. They increased government control over private businesses. Doesn't get more socialist than that.

So was the perp a black or a muslim? or both?

Has anybody rioted for the bashed doctor yet? Have patrons of fashionable eating establishments been intimidated to 𝘚𝘢𝘺 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘢𝘮𝘦? Has AOC blamed it on Trump? Has MSNBC given his hate crime victim status?

So many unanswered question in this story.

R233 I refuted it several times. You just don't pay attention and go on robotically making the same (discredited) points. Thank God I don't have to live inside your head!

R221 How about a place where you don't have to spend upwards of $1,800 a month for a shoebox and not have to worry about being shoved, sliced, hammered, shot, assaulted or killed by a car whenever you go out on the street?

So gay men on a gay forum really don't care about a gay man being bashed in a rather nice neighborhood. This should be alarming.

Racist trolls on the thread. I wonder how much you'll have to say about this unprovoked attack on a woman in the East Village by a WHITE man.

[quote]Has anybody rioted for the bashed doctor yet? Have patrons of fashionable eating establishments been intimidated to 𝘚𝘢𝘺 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘢𝘮𝘦? Has AOC blamed it on Trump? Has MSNBC given his hate crime victim status?

No, No, No, and No.

R239 Assaults, shootings, robberies, hit-and-runs are on the rise in NYC and most aren't concerned about who did it, but what's being done about it. And as others have said this isn't about 'deplorables' but rather deplorable actions. Nothing racist in that! Most people don't make everything about race or deplorables.

Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams is very likely to be the next Mayor of New York because he acknowledged that violent crime in NYC is a huge problem for everyone in NY and he vowed to do something about it. It's a message rooted in physical reality and so many 'shocking' videos demonstrate that.

[quote] So gay men on a gay forum really don't care about a gay man being bashed in a rather nice neighborhood. This should be alarming.

They don't care because it's not in the South, the Midwest, or some remote area with a population smaller than whatever year it is right now.

New Yorkers don't care. When have they ever?

So gay men on a gay forum really don't care about a gay man being bashed in a rather nice neighborhood. This should be alarming.

The attacker has not been apprehended yet, so of course we don't know much about him. What do you want people to be saying given that we're lacking basic information?

[quote] So gay men on a gay forum really don't care about a gay man being bashed in a rather nice neighborhood. This should be alarming.

Not one person said they didn’t care.

r246 that should be the focus instead we have bizarre tangents on Hitler and Communism.

[quote]So gay men on a gay forum really don't care about a gay man being bashed in a rather nice neighborhood. This should be alarming.

The attacker isn’t white. That’s why.

I live in NYC and I haven't been "shoved, sliced, hammered, shot, assaulted or killed by a car."

Although! Your fascist boyfriend DeSantis in FL made it legal to kill someone with a car. So talk to him about that.

Because it's all about you r249.

R250 How does that follow, asshole?

Since YOU'VE never been attacked then it isn't a problem!

R252 Have YOU been attacked?

But r249 you've never been attacked so crime is not a problem. There are no feral animals roaming the streets. Good to know!

R254 You keep using the term "feral animal." I think your racism is showing.

r255 feral animals come in all colors.

R256 OK, so you're eager to label certain people, regardless of race, as feral animals, which itself seems sort of feral and animalistic.

r257 some people just suck. They are violent criminal trash and a danger to society.

R249 and no one I know got COVID. So not to worry?

Why is it grayed out already? Is this where we are now? Talking about gay-bashing on a gay site is verboten?

It's not a "bizarre tangent." It's a statement of fact.

R249 wishes she had a boyfriend instead of the homeless tricks she picks up outside of the Lucerne Hotel.

Next time there's an anti-Israel protest and some old Jews finally have enough and "accidentally" run them over with their Cadillacs, then it will all be worth it.

R249 When you were bashed in 1995 was it a stranger or someone you knew? I suspect the latter.

No, i just mean that the paranoiacs on this thread who swear by what they see on OANN are full of shit. That the actual lived experience of actual New Yorkers is a lot different than Murdoch properties is feeding you.

It is interesting that the most virulently racist posters come up overnight. It's almost as if they aren't in America....

Or, maybe charitably, their insomnia gives them mental issues.

R265 So at you claim at R62 that you were bashed when Giuliani was mayor, but at R249 you you claim you live in NY and haven't been 'shoved, sliced hammered shot assaulted or killed by a car' Are you trying to say that De Blasio's a better mayor because you weren't attacked during his term or have the head injuries left permanent damage? What's the story morning glory?

R265 You do know that there are different time zones in the US?

No one cares about gay rights anymore. Young gays are too busy protesting for those who give a shit about us. The biggest causes I see gays under 30 get behind are trans rights, BLM, and abortion rights (straight people’s rights). That’s fine, but why include these things in gay pride events?

How many gay babies have been aborted since 1973?

Slow weekend in De Blasio's New York.

13-year old and a 19-year old killed and six injured in separate shootings> 17-year old girl brutally attacks elderly woman in Brooklyn> Cop shot with BB gun in latest series of attacks> Man hit with hate crime charges for umbrella attack on Asian woman in NYC> Unhinged man randomly attack an a 70-year old woman in the East Village> 2 cops dragged and injured when disturbed driver attempts to flee> 73-year old man in critical condition after being struck by a delivery truck on Coney Island

R270 What does it have to do wit De Blasio? Is he responsible for all human misbehavior?

R271 He's responsible for how it's not being addressed and that nothing is being done about it from the same man had a round-the-clock police watch on the BLM mural painted on the street in front of Trump Tower last summer. After the MTA and PBA asked the Mayor for months this spring to beef up patrols in Times Square. the subways and Washington Scare Park, the stoner is slowly coming round. The next Mayor and Democrat primary winner is the antithesis of Lurch.

R271 Oh right, you wingnuts love the police watch on the BLM mural meme. I lived in NYC all through the late 80s and 90s under the DINO Koch and Ghouliani--crime was astronomically higher than it is now. You don't have anything to say about that though, do you?

R273 How it was back then doesn't make a difference because NY is in bad shape and tourists and business that started arriving during the Bloomberg era are not coming back which spells economic disaster and BLM murals are worthless symbols, but the safety and security of police, children pedestrians, tourists and commuters is more important. And the 80s/90s comparisons strike me as WHATBOUTISM.

R273 conveniently forgot David Dinkins.

Violent Crime was highest during Dinkins' term. .

I know when I lived in NY people generally thought the one-term Mayor Dinkins was ineffectual.

R274 My whataboutism couldn't begin to equal the whataboutism of your lover Vlad Putin. And anyway, is it surprising you'd get a little disorder, a little resentment, a little chaos in a city that people with your politics have spent decades making a really nice playground for billionaires and a merciless hellscape for everyone below them in the pecking order. Reap what you sow, you fucking conscience-less scum.

My first visit to New York City was under Dinkins' mayorship. I loved every minute of it.

Oh. don't look at all the crime in NYC look over there at Putin! R278 Let's worry about Russia instead of making a paid, elected official US Mayor responsible for keeping a city and its citizens safe.

R279 And when lived there from 1988-2006 I did too, but it's worse now with random, unprovoked attacks, stray bullets, dangerous subways and it's happening in all neighborhoods and the economics of the city are in danger.

R281 Oh please, you're lying. It's not worse than it was in previous periods, you're just lying--like you always do--and trying to milk whatever ideological advantage out of it you can.

A 13-year-old boy was killed in a burst of gang-related gunfire on a Bronx street Sunday, staggering into a nearby restaurant where he collapsed, cops and witnesses said.

Jaryan Elliot was standing outside Angels Cafe in Belmont just after 3:15 p.m. when a shooter stepped out of a car and opened fire. The teen was targeted, and the shooting was gang-related, NYPD Chief of Department said on Twitter Sunday evening.

-----------------------

A man was fatally shot in an explosion of gunfire as he sat in a car on a Queens streetcorner Sunday night, police said.

Dejuan Brown, 24, was sitting inside a Nissan Maxima on 200th St. at 111th Ave. in St. Albans when someone peppered the car with bullets about 8:15 p.m., cops said.

GV has been ruined by NYU. All the new modern buildings going up...yet they kept those fucking soviet looking apt buildings. Plus now washington sq park is a shit show.

R282 Thinks the level of violence, crime and danger in NY is acceptable. He's a delusional paranoid who probably lives in his mother's basement in Queens.

R283 the violence crime and danger is 24/7 random unprovoked in broad daylight. It was never this unrelenting even in the 70s and 80s.

Weren't the 70s and 80s more about stabbings than guns? People are getting shot all over the fucking place now.

It's so funny to hear breathless reports of the city i live in going up in flames when I was all over the place this weekend and it was fine. I'm not sure what the police-state fantasists on this thread get out of hyperventilating. Surely it's not money. Is it just the LOLz? How empty.

" ...all over the place this weekend...."

A weekend in The Hamptons is not " all over the place," Ramona.

I mean I love the implication that I'm a rich hausfrau but the reality is sadly duller.

My car wasn't swallowed by a sinkhole, I wasn't at the mall when the ceiling collapsed, my building didn't pancake and I didn't walk through waist deep water in the subway. Why worry about infrastructure? No one I know has contracted the Delta variant! Why worry? R290 types Alfred E Newman

That's not insane overstatement at all, R291. It's totally not possible that the point is that NYC is not, in fact, a life-size Mad Max movie. Bad things happen and people do hurt each other. More than they did last year, for sure, but it's better than when Republicans ran things.

R292 How much better? And is that good enough? More WHATABOUTUSM!

And the graying out of this thread is proof that Muriel approves of violence against gay men.

I suppose it's possible to have a city of 8-9 million people where no one ever robs or hurts one another but human beings haven't figured out how to do that yet. Maybe you do, R293?

R295 Acknowledging a problem is the first step in bringing about change nd finding solutions. How do you feel about global warming?

Global warming isn't a thing one "feels." Now, please, tell us all how to run a totally crime-free city. Thrall me with your acumen.

R297 Hire more police for one and reinstate the anti-crime unit, stop the cat and release policy and vote for Eric Adams.

^ catch and release

I would make all anti-gay hate crimes capital crimes, give the police 10 times as much money as they already have, give them the exact same training as the military, and tell them to use lethal force in all anti-gay hate crimes with no exceptions. There is no punishment to severe for crimes against homosexuality. None whatsoever. Hell, police brutality is social justice when dealing with hate criminals.

Too.

Somehow between Dinkins' administration and Bloomberg's the city got on it's feet, the economy was doing well, tourism became a 60 billion dollar a year industry, real estate boomed, crime was down and business were coming to NY even after 9/11 and Sandy. Change is possible but not with a socialist, pothead mayor.

I would vote for a pothead but not a socialist.

[quote] Somehow between Dinkins' administration and Bloomberg's the city got on it's feet

Yes. 𝘚𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘩𝘰𝘸.

And who will pay the taxes to support the hiring of all these new cops? Who will pay the taxes to support the hiring of all the lawyers we'll need to defend against brutality lawsuits (Which already run into the $200M/year range). Will the NY Post and Fox News come out strong for raising taxes to pay for more cops?

No, I'm sure they'll say something along the lines of "let's cut the fat!" or something. That will magically create the millions needed to bring to life the fascist police-state fantasy of New York on this thread.

I guess it doesn't matter that the mayor (the pothead socialist, not the midget billionaire or the alcoholic philanderer) gave a big raise to the NYPD *and hired more of them?

No. That doesn't matter.

R305 If the economy improves and tourists and businesses return, vendors, cabbies, hotels, restaurants. parking garages thrive and employment rises with jobs in those industries and office space becomes filled and small businesses return and MTA ridership increases that will bring more tax revenue to the city which is now paying for hotels for the homeless, unemployment, EMS . . .

R305 We're all paying with billions of dollars in Federal money to NY.

So R306 is hoping that NYC will return to the way it was in 2019 when that potsmoking socialist was in charge? Then we can double the NYPD? In the meantime? What do we do? Gut schools? Hospitals? Pensions?

It's funny how police state fascists never want to make the hard choices their masturbatory fantasies would demand in reality.

R283 Thanks for the bulletins! It's like having our very own police scanner! And of course we couldn't get this information anywhere else, like on TV, the radio, or in a newspaper.

R308,

How about we cut the handout programs that are light years above what other cities give out. These programs are responsible for losers from all over the country coming to NYC for free food, shelter, healthcare and transportation. Let other cities provide for these people. We need a city filled with workers who contribute to society.

Meanwhile, those of us who have to work for a living are forced to pay for these losers.

I'm not sure where you live R310, but it's not America. There isn't a place in this country where the government is generous to the poor. It's certainly not NYC. If you look at budget numbers (which I know is hard! it's much easier to masturbate to the NY Post!), NYC spends most of its money on the police, prisons and schools. If you want more of the first two, you have to cut the other.

It's that simple.

People are trying to return to a "normal" that was anything but.

R310 Haven't you heard? Human workers are becoming a thing of the past, replaced by algorithms and AI. Maybe you should direct some of your complaints at the billionaire class. But no, you're a good little cog in the machine, channeling your hate in the direction your puppet masters approve of.

Don't blame me. Nobody back in 1985 thought anyone would take my show seriously enough to use it as a blueprint for the future and replace people with robots.

65% of students in NYC the largest public school system in the country are on breakfast and lunch programs. It was the primary reason Lurch on March 9, 2020 said that closing schools was off the table for discussion. COVID 19 be damned. 2 days later threatened action from the President of the Teachers' Union change his decision.

R309 UR are welcome and from some of the responses on this thread it seems others get their news from the Mayberry RFD Gazette. Glad to keep people informed.

[quote]65% of students in NYC the largest public school system in the country are on breakfast and lunch programs.

That is horrible. That many kids whose parents (or whoever is in charge of them) can't be bothered to feed them breakfast or make them lunch. Why do people like this have children? So sad.

^ because it pays. or should I say because we pay!

Yes, people don't feed their children because of laziness not, you know, poverty.

R320 Who feeds them during weekends, holidays and in the summer?

R314 Workers are becoming a thing of the past with extended unemployment benefits, section 8, section 6, stimulus checks and a moratorium on evictions. States that stopped the extra $400 dollars in unemployment saw a RISE in employment! Many jobs are available in NY but employers can't find workers!

[quote]Yes, people don't feed their children because of laziness not, you know, poverty.

If you don't have a pot to piss in, why bring children into that kind of life? I will never understand this.

WPIX NY 5h ago. 16-year old in Bronx taxi shot, killed by men on scooters. Crime is on the move!

City leaders including Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams are heading to the white house to discuss gun reform with Biden. I wonder why?

R308 Not hoping for return to 2017-2019 when Lurch's tax the rich policy sent tech and finance companies to greener, cheaper pastures. 50% of personal income tax revenue is from the 1% in New York. As companies opt to go South New York's economy is headed in the same direction!

R323 and why live in one of the most expensive areas of the US. There are many places where rents are lower, food is cheaper to say nothing of cleaner, less crowded and safer. Is it poverty of the imagination?

r327 that's actually changing. Living in NYC is not the end-all be-all for people anymore, in spite of what DL's eldergays who are stuck in the 80s think. NYC is so expensive now, and so many good jobs can be found elsewhere, as well as a certain lifestyle people aspire to, that it can all be done in other areas of the US instead of NYC these days.

R297 Global warming isn't a thing one feels? People in the Pacific Northwest might disagree.

R326 I keep forgetting who Lurch is supposed to be.

R 327 Very little culture in Topeka. Very few interesting people. People like Mike Pompeo live there.

R331 and we know people on welfare and section 8 are culture vultures.

R330 Strange I don't forget why you make references to Cletus, Hitler, dictatorial hellscape dystopia, Moskva, wingnuts, Vlad Putin . . .because you don't have a fucking point and the stench of crotch rot in your mother's basement is messing with your head. Try to keep up!

[quote][R326] I keep forgetting who Lurch is supposed to be. —Why are right-wing trolls so lacking in wit, so mentally stunted?

r326 is the authenticated troll brandonjoseph, who also styles himself Former New Yorker, or FNY. Yearns for the nyc of his youth. Uses MeTV references as insults often ("Mayberry RFD Gazette"). Loves his crimes stats and EXCLAMATION POINTS!!! Repetitive, too. "Why worry? [R290] types Alfred E Newman". "Sure, Jan!"...and oh, yes, "Lurch".

He also has a thing about mothers, basements, and crotch rot, having recycled " the stench of crotch rot in your mother's basement is messing with your head" for the dozenth time in r333.

He has posted over 200 times in 2 other nyc threads (he'll be easy to recognize in this linked thread). Has posted over 40 times in this one so far. Hates nyc and insults anyone saying anything positive about it.

Also, he's a Trumpster. "TDS" is another favored insult.

R334 Needs to get laid.

[quote][R334] Needs to get laid.

...and on cue, brandonjoseph/FNY proves my point. I forgot that brandonjoseph/FNY/r335 has used some form of "needs to get laid" dozens of times in various threads. Here's another linked thread that he's posted over 200 times in. He's stopped posting in those threads because no one will play with him any more, so he had to come here to get his fix. Now watch him start posting back to back posts. Watch for the word "fabulist".

R323 One of the 4 teenagers killed over the weekend in what looks like gang related activity was one of 9 children. How does one feed, clothe, house, transport and care for that many children?

J’agree with R336, FNY is the one of the most dreadful trolls on this site, and that’s a long list!

[quote]One of the 4 teenagers killed over the weekend in what looks like gang related activity was one of 9 children. How does one feed, clothe, house, transport and care for that many children?

Gubmint chex

^ LOL!

Nobody needs to have nine fucking children in the 21st century, regardless of race or socioeconomic class. That is insane.

^ that's an insane amount of 'Happy Meals'

R297 'thrall me' Oh, dear!

I'm so sad that the 1% are leaving New York. That must be why an apartment on Central Park West is now $1.95 and Columbia is offering free Cheetos with every matriculation.

I used to think you trolls we giggling when posting this nutty shit but I think you actually believe it.

R344 Are they moving or working in NY or buying a residence to add to their reality portfolio? I specifically mentioned personal income tax which the state imposes on wages, salaries and other types of income. Read and then react.

You overestimate yourself. You're not writing the Torah. Just bad right-wing trash in the internet.

^ Typical pointless response from overreactive queens who never get laid.

I'm sorry I didn't have time to read your dumb shit. I was too busy getting laid in the burned out wreck of NYC.

Enjoy whatever shit town you live in and I hope the hate you have buried inside you eats you alive! Mwah!

R348 try cruising the Skyline Motel on 10th. I hear for the price of a Happy Meal the homeless will do anything. And if you need to believe that everyone who doesn't live in NY lives in a shitty town that's fine, but it does indicate a fearfully limited purview and mindset. Cheeri-O!

Fun City News 7/12/21

Trio of masked gunmen injure 4 in yet another NYC shooting as 3 gunman hopped out of a BMW and opened fire in Jamaica Queens around 7pm

Eric Adams met with Biden to discuss gun violence. De Blasio MIA as usual.

R350 Wow, thank you! You're such a breaking-news sort of guy!

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

R352 When Adams becomes Mayor he won't need Biden's approval to put more police on the street.

R350 Since on a thread about a homophobic attack in Greenwich Village you're seem so distracted by Hitler and Japan and the Soviet Union and Teutonic races and an outhouse in West Cowfucker Oklahoma, I thought I could bring you and other unfocused DLers into this century..

^ R351

All of this publicity about violence in NYC is counter-productive. The city relies on the tourist industry; it would collapse without it. However, tourists are hesitant to come, due to all of the adverse publicity in the media concerning assaults, shootings, etc. If no one publicized it, then they would think it was safe and would come on vacation. So what if they get mugged or killed? The city has their money. So, stop talking about crime. Stick to talk about Hitler.

R356 How many tourists consult DL before they make travel plans?

As many flyover DLers live on Social Security and food banks I suspect few will be traveling to NYC. Plus they don't want to be far from their doctors.

Few people are visiting NY period. It's now a flyover state itself!

"How many tourists consult DL before they make travel plans?"

Is DL the only place where violence in NY is being publicized? Interesting.

"As many flyover DLers live on Social Security and food banks I suspect few will be traveling to NYC"

Didn't know that the majority of tourists were DLers. Also was unaware that foreign travelers were on Social Security. You learn something new every day.

Asian tourists aren't visiting.

R362,

Good.

Not good for restaurants, hotels, Broadway, vendors, parking garages, museums or The Times Square Business Alliance.

^ Sayonara New York

So all those families on the 1 train I saw this morning must be BLM protestors.

"Asian tourists aren't visiting."

Don't bitch when your taxes go higher because of the lack of Asian tourists, R 363.

Visitors from China have posted record visitor spending for three years in a row (2017-2019). In 2019, spending by these visitors totaled $3.3 billion. Each Chinese tourist spent an average of $3,000, almost 60 percent higher than the average for international visitors. From 2009 to 2019, tourists from China increased more than sevenfold, the strongest growth of any nation.2 The U.S. Department of Commerce agreement with China in December 2007 to facilitate more group leisure travel helped accelerate visitor growth. The share of international visitors from China to the U.S. more than quadrupled from 2007 to 2018

R358 Yes, and you're 25, gorgeous, and live in a penthouse on the Upper East Side. Asshole.

R368 wouldn’t the upper easy side be considered a bit stuffy and uncool for any self respecting 25yr old?

"Yes, and you're 25, gorgeous, and live in a penthouse on the Upper East Side. Asshole."

Here is a photo of his entire apartment. Not bad for $3,500 per month.

Your posts on other threads indicate that you first encountered San Francisco in the 70s hence your affection for Tales of the City as well as starting AA in your last college years, references to 'personal health issues, perhaps receding' to your many posts regarding Candice Bergen, Patty Duke and Inside Daisy Clover makes me think that you are describing yourself at R358. Such self-loathing! Is that what drove you to AA?

My taxes will only go up if we bring to life the fascist dreamworld of the trolls on this thread who want to expand the biggest police force in the US (by far! it's more than twice the size of its nearest competitor) into something like an occupying army.

R369 Good point. Williamsburg then.

R372 the occupying army is there already: thugs, gangs, teens with guns, criminals and the homeless. How much tax dollars are spent on them? Just the court costs and incarceration for a year is upwards of $80K. Considerably more than a rookie officers annual salary.

R372 and the salary of corrections officers and EMS

If NYC is such a fucking hell hole than the NYPD is doing a shitty fucking job and should be replace by people who can do the work.

Instead we got a bunch of whiny fat trumpists who won't do shit unless they can kill at will.

Oh! And they have paranoid police-state jock sniffers like R374 giving them cover.

R374 Concentration camps, which is apparently what you want, are expensive, too, you fucking fascist.

R377=overreactive troll. Everything is one extreme or the other.

R376 Who killed the 4 teens over a 4-day period this past week in NY? Trumpers? Police? Jock sniffers?

We can't talk about it because the perps are always black.

R376 Who let the dogs out? Catch and release!

I know! Let's have an economy that works for everyone and not just the wealthy, so that minorities don't have to depend on a Wild West black market to survive. I know that solution is too humane to appeal to our law-and-order trolls, but maybe to others?

Why is the NYPD so shitty at its job that it lets this happen? They have all the money in the world. More manpower than literally any other police force in the country and yet (according to R379), NYC is a chaotic violent hell hole!! Heads need to roll! Right, R379???

The next great problem is upon the city. According to the Times:

"The hotel transfers are key to an all-fronts effort by the city to get homeless people out of hotels and off the streets and subway in Manhattan, the core of both business and tourism, as it struggles back from the economic devastation caused by the pandemic.

The measures also include frequent removals of encampments where homeless people stay and an expansion of the 311 system to let subway riders call in complaints about panhandlers and report the presence of homeless people so that outreach workers can come to them.

City officials say the moves out of hotels are necessary to lure workers and visitors back to Manhattan and are in the best interests of homeless people. Some City Council members and other local leaders have asked Mayor Bill de Blasio to help address what they say are threats to public safety posed by homeless people, several of whom have been charged this year in high-profile, vicious, random attacks in the streets and on the subway."

Good luck getting tourists. I guess there will be more violence.

R383 Right and the head that needs to roll belongs to De Blasio. Catch and release is not working!

R383 'all the money in the world'? and 'chaotic violent hell hole'? Do you always use hyperbole?

R383 and 'concentration camps'? WTF You need to get laid and have that brain scan. It seems that 1995 bashing did permanent damage.

R387 Why are you always responding to the wrong person? Have you been drinking all day?

R388 with your references to Nazis, Hitler, dictatorial hellscape dystopia, and Fascists you sounded like the other hysteric with your over reactionary and hyperbolic responses.

R389 It's all right, honey. There are AA meetings EVERYWHERE. Even where YOU are. Where was it again? Oklahoma? Arkansas?

R390 yes AA everywhere and isn't that where your parents met? That certain explains you over reactive illogic and makes you sound like a guy who was bashed. Easy mistake to make and of course in you hyperbolic mind that calls for AA.

R391 Yes, but do you remember that I told you you're not usually responding to the right person? Is there an aide there where you live who can help you?

U.S. News ranked the 25 best places to live in the U.S. in 2021-2022 and NYC didn't make the cut. A man was stabbed for 'looking' at another man's girlfriend in Lower East Side Park over the weekend. NY is the home of rageaholics. Doesn't Alec Baldwin live there? For the DLers who disparage so many other cities and states that they never visited the Top 10 included Boulder, Co , Raleigh and Durham, NC and Naples, FL. The quality of life, low crime, affordable housing, a strong job market, good hospitals and schools and a desirable place to live were among the criteria.

R392 Fortunately, I have an aide that doesn't let me forget how dangerous the streets of New York are. Overnight a 24-year-old delivery worker on Houston Street was the latest victim in another hit-and-run and a stray bullet struck an innocent bystander on East 118th Street and 3 men were injured in a shooting in Brooklyn.

R392 There I go again forgetting again! A man suffered burns in a random liquid attack in Midtown yesterday. Hard to keep up! Shout out to ABC 7 for this one.

[quote] A man suffered burns in a random liquid attack in Midtown

He was a jogger. A jogger in midown almost certainly would have voted for DeBlasio

R396 If he did vote for De Blasio, he probably regrets it now!

R371, I live in Brooklyn not flyover country and despite some health issues continue to work a professional job. This last year remotely. I have never posted about those actresses, despite what trolldar erroneously tells you.

You are really creepy.

R398 The part about the actresses may have been wrongly attributed to you but you did discuss starting AA in your last years of college as well as having health issues and liking Tales of the City because it brought up the feeling of San Francisco of the time "I first encountered the city" So I gather your an aging alcoholic bottom living in a city with a shortage of tops probably who likes being near your doctors and is old enough to collect Social Security Your snarky post at R358 received negative response from R370, R369, R368, R361 and me who smelled a pretentious cunt.

R399, haven't had a drink in almost 40 years, yes old enough for Social Security but don't collect as I am pulling in a decent salary. And versatile and still getting it. Saving it for later to use with a 401K, investments and a pension when I finally retire. Enjoy my work to keep going

I repeat you are creepy.

R400 Love to chat gran, but I've got to rush out to the food pantry. They're running out of Grey Poupon!

Another list where NYC doesn't make THE CUT - the most dangerous cities in the US, according to the FBI and not some fucking bullshit someone made up about what constitutes "liveable."

The pattern from this list that emerges is the most dangerous cities are black urban areas in states run by conservative Republicans. Why aren't THEY funding the police properly?

If the fascists on this thread went nuts over the Michigan legislature or the whole government of Arkansas, then maybe I'd think they weren't nuts and assholes.

But they lose their shit over a mugging.

R402 Was your mother's name Brandy?

That's too stupid to be shady.

NYPD Top Cop Eric Shea: Bronx shootings are 'back to a level not seen since 1996'

I will guess Eric Shea neglects to mention who is doing most of those shootings.

r400, FNY/brandonjoseph/r401 is responsible for nearly 25% of this thread. He isn't just creepy. He's a stalker and seems to be mentally ill. He is quite repetitive. See r347: he reuses forms of "never get laid" for at least the third time in this thread. He has used "need to get laid", "unfucked" and various versions of the same dozens of times in various threads.

brandonjoseph/FNY/r399 gets stuck on odd words. With you, it's "overreactive". With me, it was "fabulist". Pretty soon, he will claim that you and I are the same person, and begin calling us by female names for no apparent reason. You might be right about the drinking, or maybe he's sundowning. Definitely some form of mental illness.

He calls you "Gran" (another favorite ageist insult), even though, by his own account, he has to be in his late 50s/early 60s, at least. Most of his references are from 60s/70s tv shows and commercials. He claims to have hung out at Boy Bar, Tunnel, Pyramid, etc, and I believe him. I probably threw him out of Boy Bar.

For more of FNY's nonsense, reference my post at r334. Or the thread linked below, the 1st of 3 (that I know of) that he infested with over 200 posts. At nearly 100 posts here, this will likely be his 4th thread in which he has been responsible for well over 30% of the posts. Between 2 different devices, he has posted well over 20 times in less than 24 hours.

Angry resident crashes car through front of Bronx homeless hotel during crazed fight with staff

Investigators are searching for a woman accused of plowing her car into a hotel being used as a homeless shelter on Gerard Avenue.

Police tell News 12 that the driver of the vehicle got into an argument with management at the Ramada hotel before crashing her car through the lobby around 11 p.m. Monday.

The crash comes as the city halted moving about 8,000 homeless people from hotels back into shelters. The Legal Aid Society filed a lawsuit saying the move is illegal and inhumane.

R393 Yes, the low crime rate in Boulder and other Colorado towns, except for frequent mass shooting events.

Mobile Crime Unit: Man shot in the head by a group of gunmen on dirt bikes during early morning Bronx carjacking.

More gunplay on the Great White Way. Shots rang out in Times Square early Wednesday.

R407. Yes he's a stalker and uses several devises. I blocked him and he shows up again. Mentally ill.

Boulder is the equivalent of a high price restricted building with armed ex-cops as the doormen.

Boulder Demographics

According to the most recent ACS, the racial composition of Boulder was:

White: 87.37%

Asian: 5.80%

Two or more races: 3.82%

Other race: 1.51%

Black or African American: 1.20%

Native American: 0.21%

Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander: 0.10%

The city has a median household income of just over $57,000, with a median family income of $113,600. Full-time female workers make $47,500 compared to full-time male workers at $72,000. A full 25% of the population lives below the poverty line. Boulder usually has higher home prices than nearby areas.

R412 Who gives a fuck?

Boulder is a very white town, with a few Asians.

R412 are we going to be tested on this material?

R415 Yes. The school administrators are getting the rubber room ready for the testing.

R416 Are straight jackets optional?

R417 No! You must wear straight jackets! If you refuse, you will immediately be handcuffed, hooded, and put on a plane to Boulder!

^ Sounds great. Boulder must be beautiful this time of year!
