We understand and always cut slack for the remaining few normal people like you, Dpo22, etc.

I know. Their resentment at the liberals elected colors everything that some people know about NYC. I grew up in Brooklyn, my 101 year old aunt still lives there. Our whole family loves Trump. I’ve voted the republican ticket since age 18 (held my nose for Romney & Noname).

There is so much cheating and so many brainwashed in some very populated areas that Republican victories are few & far between. We are each responsible for our own vote not for our whole state. It is better to build a grass roots movement than to just trash hardworking people who have Conservative values but live in a blue state. Lots of Black, Hispanic and 1st generation Americans from all over the world are seeing the promise & success of the Trump Presidency. There is always hope that after this disgusting performance of Leftist Government even more people will see the truth & walk away.

They also raved about the glorious paradise Joseph Stalin was building in the Soviet union.

Raziah Begum, a widow and nanny from Bangladesh, who has diabetes and high blood pressure.

Are these a common medical problems in Bangladesh or did she have to come to America to get sick on bad American fast food diet? I guess getting diabetes and high blood pressure is a way of assimilating into the typical American poor health culture.

“Ventilators save few lives. Stay off them if possible.”

Starting to think you are right. Cancelling my intubation appointment for May 20th right now.

This wasn’t the attitude when Ukrainians were starving by Stalin as the Slimes covered it up. If any of this was during the Magic Negro Administration,this story would be written differently praising the “Won” or just as covered up as the Ukraine Famine and Holocaust.

Not just density though. There is also the fact that NY is the crossroads for international travel and center of globalization. Of course the virus hit there.

I suspect this will be the straw that breaks NYs back. People were already leaving. Now it will turn from a flood to a deluge. NY simply doesn’t have a viable business model.

He’s the governor and you’re not. He’s doing a fantastic job of being the governor. Everyone else is doing a fantastic job of not being the governor. Yay. Break out the party hats.

"“We are so hungry, but I am more terrified that I will get sick,” said Ms. Begum, 53, who has diabetes and high blood pressure."

High blood pressure? Diabetes?

I'll lay odds that it will be a long time before she starves to death.

The hospitals will get the coronabucks regardless of whether the patient lives or dies.

Quite a few of these Third World immigrants arrive with latent tuberculosis. They're sitting ducks for any sort of respiratory illness.

I understand you being tired about people blaming entire states for their crap policies. I’m in Colorado and my area is quite conservative, but we have a gay governor who thinks he’s Stalin. Luckily I can work around most of his stupidity, but not all.

Good luck there, it ain’t always easy living around a lot of liberals. That’s why I left the big city ASAP and moved to where sane people are still a majority. But not everyone can just up and do that.

If ever there was a solid argument for New York STATE to cut off that noxious lower extremity called New York CITY, this is it.

We in Upstate NY (Ithaca area myself) would be thrilled to have that blood-sucking (and tax-dollar sucking) monstrosity excised from the rest of the state. Let it become its own state. Hell, let it become its own country.

And if that happened, I wouldn’t be surprised if Upstate went solid red in the next election cycle.

They also don’t consider that many of those people would already be dead if they hadn’t come to America.

I’ve lived in Queens my entire adult life..... If you’re using the word “normal” in regards to political views, then there are a lot of “abnormal” people out there all over the country....but as far as other forms of behavior, There’s no question in my mind that the population of Queens has become a lot more normal over the past several decades... and we have the immigrants to thank for it.... Back in the 1980s, there were tons of crazy old White people in Queens.... George Constanza’s parents on Seinfeld was an understatement of the actual reality.... One time my parents were visiting from Florida and we went to an outdoor concert.... My dad asked me “are there a lot of retarded people here?”..... I said “no, it’s Queens”...... Now all those old people have died off and what’s left are there slightly less crazy offspring..... Meanwhile, all the immigrants are totally normal and fairly young..... The downside is they are much more Liberal
