The protesters will be interrogated by FBI agents. Also they will be charged with felony disorderly conduct and violation of a health order.

Just hours before an apparently innocent woman was pushed onto the subway tracks by a convicted felon


The guilt or innocence of the murdered woman is still up in the air?

Well, at least the mayor and police commissioner have their priorities right.

In the subway shoving incident the perp is a black homeless man, whom the NY Post referred to as “unhinged”, and the victim was an Asian woman. The media will never call this as an anti-Asian crime. Of course if the perp had been white well…

I think - this is just speculation here - that the huge team of writers on this article may be suggesting that the lady attacked the homeless man and he defended himself by pushing her onto the tracks. Just a guess.

While I am not morally opposed to the protesters, I do not think the juxtaposition of the protest incident and the subway incident are a fair assessment of police priorities.

The police did not just spot the restaurant protesters and act, they were called to the scene. But the act of a deranged person shoving someone down on the subway tracks is a random unforeseeable event no one can anticipate (as to when and where).

If there is any skewed priorities it is not so much with the police - they do as they are told to do - as it is with the courts and DAs in New York.

Well, Asian women are notorious for their attacks on homeless black men. Something should be done about it!

NYC...
The urinal of the country...
Haven’t had decent mayors since the gangsters La Guardia & Wagner, and the crime-stopper Giuliani...

NYC was a wonderful city until POS John Lindsey arrived on the scene and the patients took control of the asylum...

Then the list smells like an unflushed urinal...
Koch, Dinkins, de Blasio, Bloomberg, and now, apparently, Adams...

When are the oceans going to give us that long-predicted 10-foot rise?

Police slow walk calls.

They could and should have slow walked this one.

Whenever I used to travel internationally, and even domestically and I had to use the subway, I always, always, always stood away from the tracks with my back against the wall. I only moved forward when the train came to a stop.

Anyone else notice that Left wing prosecutors are saying they will not go after trespassing … unless of course you’re someone they don’t approve of?

Reason number 8,230,290 to never use mass transit. Crazy people who want to kill you for no reason.

I wonder how long, over how many days/months the same guy had been hanging around without the cops even looking at him? I’ve seen cops act like that nearer to where I live. I can recall trying to get cops in the Denver hood to do something about people going through dumpsters and casing cars, tagging, etc. (A lot of the neighbs were upset about tagging, vandalism, shooting at night.) I was even quote-unquote told to ignore it by a number of public servants including cops (because that’s what THEY did! haha! take that taxpayers! thanks for the gun so I can defend myself, now go lock yourself inside the house and turn the TV up if you don’t want to hear the gunfire outside, K?)

I’ve had some memorable experiences on public transportation, and not a single one of those memorable experiences was pleasant.
