Damn! The Backlash is coming

Black lives matter!

Latino food delivery guys have been forming self-protection organizations in response. They are starting to take back the streets. The Fuzz have been useless.

New York Magazine had a cover story on this a couple of weeks ago.

Grubbhubb/Seamless need to step up, too, they have the funds to help and improve conditions.

I feel terrible for delivery drivers. Give them an extra 10 bucks if you can.

R4- I never eat out/ order food from a restaurant. I prepare ALL my food at home.

But... I thought areas run by democrats were basically Utopias, while anywhere Republicans were in charge is a living hell?

You push people on the streets by raising prices beyond belief, those people are gonna find ways to survive.

Cool R5.

Thanks for sharing.

You sound like a really fun person, R5.

R5 left out the word "alone" from his sentence.

I respect people who cook instead of eat out all the time. Most white people do the latter. It’s sad.

It’s ok to cook.

"Grubbhubb/Seamless need to step up, too, they have the funds to help and improve conditions."

Hahaha, my sides. Like they care.

Yet last night there was a segment on the news about the high incarceration rates for blacks. Gee,I wonder why ? The segment claimed systemic racism but of course they would. It has nothing to do with the criminality of a great segment of young black men . Not all mind you,but enough to be a cliche.

It all links back to systemic racism and slavery, yes.

Most violent stranger upon stranger crimes are committed by a small number of repeat offenders. And not I don't have the stats at my fingertips.

I don't believe in incarceration for most offenses but I do for most violent ones. Most of these people are sociopaths and will just do a repeat performance upon release. Sadly they need to be taken off the streets as long as possible. I also believe in prosecuting violence in prisons fully.

R14 It also links to kids raise on the street, born to teen aged mothers who had no chance of a decent life herself.

Well, what does that make you, R9?

[quote] Damn! The Backlash is coming

What kind of 'backlash' are you proposing, OP?

Shithole behavior from a shithole city.

I don't want a dangerous backlash. I want a measured and effective response to people who will not be policed, people who have no respect for others, people who are violent and destroy communities and neighborhoods with their criminal behavior. These people make it near impossible to raise children safely and in a healthy manner without the danger and terrible influence these miscreants pose. Children should not have to witness crimes constantly nor be scared of being a member of their own community.

We know enough to know who should be off the streets. All we have to do is base it on their behavior.

How about the people from other states just leave? You aren’t actually from here

Hoodies should be banned. Perfect disguise for crooks, thieves, gang members amd kooks.

Boris thread

OP is advocating for more lynching because OP is a big ol' genocidal white supremacist. Just my guess.

R24, you're an ass.

Free will knows no race. So stop excusing behavior with your stupid “systemic racism “ bullshit.

Last year there were two particularly violent muggings in either Regina or Saskatoon (I don't remember which) and the perpetrators were indigenous men. Their defence? They said it was caused by 'colonialism'. Now THAT'S victim mentality!

[quote]How about the people from other states just leave? You aren’t actually from here

Why should they? We all know the problem is being caused by people who were born and raised in New York City, so let's not even pretend, shall we?

R28 and why are they causing problems?

There are good people on both sides.

Go fuck yourself.

My go-to diner employs a slew of Mexicans and Guatemalans in the kitchen and bussing tables. .All hard workers. All well paid. And all great with the customers.

I also cook at home, but I'm happy that that these guys are working. And the waiters and waitresses make a good living and most have been there for years.

Not everyone can be a college graduate. Not everyone can work in tech.

[quote] I feel terrible for delivery drivers. Give them an extra 10 bucks if you can.

I don’t believe anyone should be injured, but the way they ride around Manhattan, ignoring every traffic rule and pedestrian, I don’t feel sorry for them.

Yes and most likely he was delivering food to some Jewish girl with vocal fry paying $4000 a month to live in 1 bedroom apt.

It would be very rewarding if delivery drivers randomly started turning these thugs into Swiss cheese. Make it a deterrent for these shit heads.

R33 Um like excuse me! I work for my money! I’ll spend it however I want! 👑

[quote] Um like excuse me! I work for my money!

Yeah, but your parents pay your rent.

R36 My daddy is successful and he helps me? He does it out of love? And yes, every sentence sounds like a question?

[quote][R28] and why are they causing problems?

What difference does it make? I've got all sorts of problems because of things that happened in my childhood and I can guarantee you that nobody gives a flying fuck about any of it, and just feel that I should accept responsibility for everything and anything that I do.

The OP still hasn't explained what his so-called 'backlash' will look like.

r14: “It all links back to systemic racism and slavery, yes”.

I disagree with you, and propose an anti discriminatory stance and hold all people accountable for their actions.

I don’t care why someone is violent. It needs to be addressed and members of society need to be protected from offenders.

Defunding police compounds crime. I do care about every crime, but violent is clear cut. Shoplifting affects us all....the company losses are put on the future customers and if we don’t consume and pay them, they will choose to remove their business and do business where hey make money. Retail is a business not a nonprofit… They provide a service and we pay for it. If we don’t then there are consequences. For society in the neighborhoods. And then other businesses leave if it’s not physically viable… Then we have shit in our neighborhood. Delivery drivers won’t want to deliver to us in these neighborhoods. We dig our own grave. Then blame the businesses for going to more civilized areas were rules are followed and the social contract as observed. What do we do then? They were being discriminated against because Walgreens doesn’t want to be in our neighborhood? Because you’re poor, black, gay, disabled… Criminals ruin it for the rest of us, if they are not held accountable… We inevitably are.

Don’t forget trans you elitist!!

"Defunding the police" is a Fox News strawman talking point with no connection to reality, but whatevs.

WE’RE poor etc.

No, R44, the left wing idiots with no grip on reality keep shouting Defund the Police.

r44, what do you mean? defunding the police was associated with BLM and battle cry following George Floyd’s death. Local governments took stance on this and cut police budgets. It did happen. Then we saw crime spike. Was it Chicago over Labor Day section of city was a no police zone and murders is the double digits? One a young girl toddler.

WHAT CITIES HAVE DEFUNDED POLICE? According to a Forbes report from August 2020, at least 13 cities have defunded or are in the process of defunding their police departments:

Cities defunded police departments - National Police Support Fund New York City Washington, D.C. Baltimore Philadelphia Los Angeles San Francisco Atlanta Minneapolis Seattle Salt Lake City Portland, Oregon Hartford, Connecticut Norman Oklahoma, Austin, Texas According to Forbes, funding cuts ranged from $1 billion in New York City to $3.5 million in Seattle and $850,000 in smaller cities like Norman, Oklahoma. However, Forbes also reports that several cities have increased police spending, including Houston, San Diego, Nashville, and Durham, North Carolina.

R5 Omg you deserve an award! You're some kind of hero!

"All we have to do is base it on their behavior."

R20 You sound brilliant, and like you've got it all figured out! Please run for mayor.

Our local restaurants made a big push for us to support the local economy and order takeout last year. These poor delivery drivers, knowing the risk I feel very mixed about doing. Now that I think about it, my takeout I usually pick it up myself. It’s always a few assholes ruin it for everybody else Always

r50, I’m curious, What’s your issue with basing on someone’s actions?

Redistribution of funding does not equal defunding.

13 cities do not equal every major city in the United States.

It's a wingnut talking point designed to bash anybody daring to criticize police brutality with no basis in reality.

Losing issue for Democrats: Defund the Police.

Instead of police showing up to your door after you've been burglarized, social workers will appear and ask if you're OK.

It is true that the Mexican and Asian delivery guys drive their e-bikes on (crowded!) sidewalks way too much lately. It’s really gotten out of hand in 2021. So… I think we probably need at least 200 of them to be murdered by thugs for it to even make a DENT.

Frankly the murderers need to pick up the pace.

R49 I applaud those who are self-sufficient.

Too many obese Americans are like Hedonism Bot—

We support our police, just stay in your lane when we hijack the capitol!

If I was delivering food for a living, I’d be armed and would blow the fucking head off a thug who ,tried to rob me.
