This article is about something else.
And as a former NYer, I am very familiar with Alvin Bragg and NYC politics.
Alvin Bragg is a racist.
And you are a Marxist tool afraid of the truth (perhaps afraid of being called a racist for telling the truth).
This article is about something else."
"Being trapped means that you become a captive audience for grubby beggars, mariachi bands, aspiring rappers, “gymnasts” with boomboxes, candy sellers, and multiple other urban “entrepreneurs.” Yes, nobody fears a ten-year old boy hawking Kit-Kats, but it is uncomfortable to lack any escape route when he makes his pitch. And who knows what could happen if you accidentally make eye-contact with a disheveled panhandler strolling from car to car?There is a reality here that dare not speak its name. The New York subway, including many dark, deserted passageways, abound with people whose inescapable presence justifiably causes unease. Their presence is excluded from official crime statistics, but their existence projects a reasonable sense of criminal threat. And thanks to liberal DAs like NYC’s Alvin Bragg, their numbers grow. Critically, this unease cannot be mitigated by upbeat reports about declining subway crime or endlessly preaching the joys of diversity. Jordan Neely’s subway “act” was innocently impersonating Michael Jackson, but among his 42 prior arrests was one for assaulting a 67-year old woman whose nose was broken and eye socket fractured (he walked in exchange for 15 months of treatment that he never completed). Paranoia about “the harmless” can sometimes be justified.
And if you are attacked, nobody will defend you, and don ‘t even think of fighting back, let alone brandishing a weapon. Imagine if Sargent Penny had an AR-15, even if he didn’t use it? And, if by chance, you do resist and win, hundreds of protestors will riot and then demand that you be punished."
