A young liberal woman refused to cooperate with prosecutors after violent recidivist Rhamell Burke attacked her on the subway five weeks before he allegedly pushed a retired NYC teacher to his death on Thursday.
Now the 23-year-old woman has regrets.
“Maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail,” she told The Post.

Maybe if she had indulged in less self-congratulatory empathy for the maniac who allegedly tried to kill her and felt more compassion for her fellow New Yorkers left to the mercy of an out-of-control predator roaming the streets, Ross Falzone would still be alive.
But Falzone, 76, was unlucky enough to be entering the Chelsea subway station Thursday afternoon when Burke allegedly randomly shoved him down a flight of stairs, leaving the beloved ex-teacher to die hours later at Bellevue Hospital from a catastrophic brain injury.
The woman’s irrational attitude to public safety is a textbook example of suicidal empathy, the condition described by evolutionary psychologist Gad Saad in which compassion becomes so excessive that people or societies make decisions that undermine their own survival.
‘Woke mind virus’
It’s as good an explanation as any to describe the years-long harassment campaign by sizable chunks of the public against law enforcement in New York and around the country, even as chaos and disorder grow, the predators get bolder, and the body count grows.
The irony is that women, just like Burke’s lucky victim, are overrepresented in the ranks of angry anti-NYPD, anti-ICE agitators. They are among the most vulnerable targets of violent predators, yet they insist on protecting them

She probably wants to defund the police too.
“Maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail,” she told The Post.
Well, blood is on her hands now.
No wonder some of us question the wisdom of giving women the vote.
If she has a septum ring, blue hair or tattoos, it's a given.
Translation: I'm afraid to be called a name! Please don't call me racist! Ple-e-e-e-ase!
“I don’t want to put another black man in jail,” she told The Post.”
Someone needs to explain to these psycho women the meaning of “suicidal empathy”. This is a textbook case.
Less that these women are used by the left, and more that they ARE the left. AWFLs are the real drivers.
Womens be like dey want dat bad boy fo demselves,
so’s d’ey be da momma saver of da woild.
Den agin, mebbe she don’t.
(Dear folks, this equation has been in existence in American politics since the Kennedy/Nixon TV debate!)
They treat criminals like puppies.
I was listening to a speech by Helen Andrew’s who put forth reasons why feminism and the feminization of society was the cause of many of our problems today. Suicidal empathy is a major problem not just here in the US, but in western societies in general.
AWFLs are the real drivers.
Is there a reason why the U is being left off? Just asking because i have seen more and more people leaving the U for Urban out.
Gad Saad has labeled this phenomenon “ suicidal empathy “.
Coupled with TDS, whole generations are terminally afflicted.
It’s not a coincidence that there is a mental illness epidemic afflicting liberal women. They ain’t right in the head.
Why does she even get to choose?
A dangerous person is a dangerous person. We have prisons to keep dangerous people away from the rest of us.
But yes, female empathy is going to be our downfall. As a group, too many believe everyone is like them, all cultures are equal. Their leftist professors have them believing, “all people are basically the same”. True, until they turn 3...then their culture starts shaping their minds.
When “rape is ok in our culture”...why bring it here? ...supported by the very people to be targeted.
It’s insane.
The 23-year-old woman should be charged as an accessory to murder after the fact.
“Maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail,” she told The Post.
“Plus it will make it harder for me to date black men.”
This is an issue of ideological capture that happens with everyone. It may happen more with women but it happens with men too. I forget the name, but remember the Western journalist who was beaten in Pakistan and wrote an article about how he deserved it? Think about the people who turn their family members in to the state under the Soviet or Nazi authoritarian system due to buying into the propaganda. This girl is just a soft form of that. She “deserves” to be beaten by her ideological superiors. Its the ultimate rejection of individualism and its replacement with an ideological hierarchy of grievance groups.
Rhamell Burke attacked her
Sounds like she’s into that some women have kinky ways it’s not just a male thing.
Whatever happened to the “Me-Too” movement? I had somehow imagined that its original purpose was to REPORT and condemn this sot of behavior by males of all kinds.
Wandering away from the constructive premise.
