After a video of a woman experiencing over 100 instances of street harassment during a 10 hour period walking the streets of New York City went viral, Funny Or Die News decided to conduct an experiment to see what happens to a white man walking the streets of NYC.

“Pumpkin Spice Season, Son!”
My new autumn catchphrase.
I laughed until I stopped.
New york city is a fascist state now, so if they wanted to base this on reality they should have a cop give him a ticket for jaywalking, then get a ticket for smoking in Times square - outside - in the street, then getting a ticket for sitting on a milk crate (yes they actually give tickets for that) then trying to throw out crumpled up paper and missing the trash can and getting a ticket for littering before you can pick it up (yes I got that), then getting a ticket for exiting a taxi into a bike lane that nobody uses (got that) then getting a ticket for “equipment violation” on your car 4 minutes after a truck smashes off your side view mirror (got that), basically any excuse the city can think of to steal your money to support welfare breeding cows and illegals, that is what the fascist city of New york is really like.
This was not funny. It was meant as a put-down to every woman who has had to tolerate harassment while walking in the city.
I didn’t say anything on the other threads, but I have on this one.
I hate to laugh but that list of violations made me laugh.
Madness.
Soon we will forget what Land of the Free means.

Well what do you expect....they're ALL a bunch of democRATS.
I’ll really have to watch this later, but bless them for making fun of that dame.
Grow some thick skin. Just laugh or tell them to (bleep) off. You wonder why so few of us respect american women anymore. Sheesh.
One of the many things that makes Free Republic a one stop source for news, informed opinion and so much more!
Truly hilarious! This SO deserved parodying...
I also noticed all the white people, so....you know
I disagree with you. IMO it is funny. Women know where they can safely walk, how to walk and how to dress and not get harassed if they don’t want the attention. The gal who did the video needs to learn what many other people need to learn, suck it up and go on. If you look hard enough you can always find something to substantiate your theory.
Guys are going to be guys.
Funniest two minutes ever.
Mmmm chipotle
I grew up there and finally got smart and moved 2 years ago, and just in time it seems as they now elected a hardcore blatant communist as Mayor. The scams that city uses to steal peoples money it’s absolutely insane, and is absolutely 100% because they pay out such an insane amount of money to social programs so they are constantly using every means possible to get as much money as they possibly can, it drives you NUTS. A friend of mine ran a newstand and went out of business from all the fines, he couldn’t keep up, constantly getting $1000 dollar fines for the most ridiculous reasons like cigarettes less than 2 feet away from the counter, cash register display not a certain height from the counter, “No cash refund” properly displayed, just name it, on and on and on and this is a guy who sold newspapers, chips, cigarettes candy. Try making $1000 selling that. Probably the best I ever heard was a hotdog stand vendor who was in the middle of serving a customer when a NYC health inspector came up and demanded his license. After he served the customer he presented his license to the Brownshirt, and was awarded a ticket for $1000. Why? Because his license was “not presented in a timely fashion”. VHEN ZE GESTAPO DEMANDS ZE PAPERS, YOU VILL ACHTUNG!
I agree with you. The woman in the original video had a right to be left alone. And this video mocks that right.
Hey, dittos to him for making a video of male harassment. Gotta lov it. Heard the woman was an “aspiring” actress. She just wanted her time on youtube to get attention. BTW, many years ago, I loved hearing a whistle.
Interesting. Many years ago, in college, I had a girlfriend who was - let us say - very well-endowed. I asked her about the whistles. She was no shirking violet. And she told me that she never liked the whistles. And sometimes they scared her.
Tell me, how many women walk around for 10 hours EXPECTING to get attention?
You're certainly right in that the original video was a set-up, and it was meant to elicit just the response that it got.
But that doesn't negate the message: Attractive women will be harassed (and yes, 90% of the time it is harassment). That's against a fundamental conservative principle: People have the right to be left alone.
