I suspect if your response was “Yes, officer, you’re right, I’ll be more careful from now on.” no ticket would issue. See Chris Rock on the subject.

It’s difficult to support a world class symphony, art museum, or opera in the boonies. Or pro sports teams. I’m not saying city life is better than rural. I do not live in a large city myself, but I do live in a large urban area. But there are some things that people like about living in cities.

Chicago they have $150.00 ticket for everything. Spitting, flicking cigarette, riding bike on sidewalk, if you don’t pay on time they hand it to a collection agencies with total of $600.00. In the meantime thugs run rampant on the subways.

The fact that is made NYC one of the safest cities in America is not important. Clogged courts are the problem. Idiot socialist mayor.

Idiot socialist mayor.

Idiot COMMUNIST mayor, a real true imbecile. And how about the 77% of the voters who stayed home on election day to allow this horse's ass to win the election with 23% of eligible voters voting? Sit on your rear end on voting day, get stupid putzes like DeDumDum.

No difference. Communism is an imaginary pseudo-anarchistic society that Marxists promise will somehow occur naturally once the all-powerful socialistic state “withers away” due to the power of the proletarian dictatorship somehow “los(ing) its political character”.

Commie, Schmommie, Who’sYourMommy-—it all comes down to DeDumDum being a moron, making for a very scary ride for NYCers. Those of us who are not suffering from terminal libtardia, that is. For the libtards, it’s their idea of heaven.

I’d call him evil. Even morons by the classical definition of the word (mental age 7-10 years old) would not have the kind of capacity for malice that he does.

Mayor DeDumDum's true constituency are the illegals, the ghetto scum and the criminals. His idols, which get him down on his knees, are real estate developers. They financed his campaign and he lets them develop whatever they want. Historical buildings? Raze 'em, put up luxury condos. Community gardens? Build something right over them. Here is a former community garden, beautiful and productive, a true community asset:

And here is the same garden, 3 years after one of DeDumDum's developer buddies bought the land and evicted the gardeners. Still not developed, but has become a dangerous eyesore.

City infrastructure? NYCers have had to become adept at dodging large potholes, pavement waves, pavement that is nothing but shingles of asphalt, burnt out street lights that are not replaced for years, etc. But those things are not his priority. He claims he wants more low-income housing, but with the other hand maintains NYC as a sanctuary city, bringing tons and tons of illegals in to take that housing. As I've said here before, the illegals I see in classrooms are right from the gutters and fields of their native countries, without socialization, without any desire to work hard to rise above their minimal existence, and WITH a huge need for free education (to which they are not entitled) free medical (ditto), free food (ditto), free housing (ditto), social security benefits (so they can draw off the same well as people who have worked here all their lives and then won't have any payments---because it's going to illegals who never contributed a dime).

Who needs DeDumDum? Only the scum.
