No argument from me.

Very familiar with the pattern. As I said I grew up in North Philly. We had Milton and John Street, the Bobbsey Twins of Made-up Grievances and fake outrage.

It happened on Williams Street, a couple of blocks from Pete’s Hot Dog Stand. Damn! Hard to believe that in the 50s Newburgh was called the All American city. Then Mayor John Mitchell (no relation the the John Mitchell of Watergate fame) was ridiculed at a Mayor’s conference for warning of the impending problems smaller cities would face because of the then burgeoning illegal drug problems.

For decades the North preened about their devotion to civil rights and being ‘accepting’. They sneered at the South and the West as unenlightened rubes and racists.
It was all a facade. I remember my parents telling me nobody burned crosses in daBronx, only real estate offices on Pelham Parkway, Riverdale, Baychester and other "good" neighborhoods that dared to show co op apartments and town houses to those "G-damned n***ers" and "filthy sp*cs" that's what limo liberals call them when they think no one's paying attention. Near where I grew up in Rockland County there was a dilapidated old building near an old Erie Lakawanna RR track, that until the outbreak of WW2 was used as a meeting place for the local Klan. We had them in NY as well. And until well into the 70s you could count on one hand the number of Black firefighters and police officers in Rockland.

It's in Orange County which is number 6 on the list of coronavirus cases in the state.

Viruses do not care about county lines. What's important to know is that the worst area ON EARTH for Covid-19 is any land within 28 miles of Central Park.

There are many larger cities on earth, with poorer health facilities, poorer populations, and far closer to the epicenter in Wuhan (which re-opened its subway system this past weekend)... but the NYC region (into northern NJ and western Long Island).

It's tough for a rational human being to blame Pres Trump for this worst-anywhere location, since the rest of the nation COMBINED does not have NYC's epidemic numbers... but of course that does not stop the psychotic Left from doing it anyway. This region has more cases than all but 4 nations on earth, including non-NYC-America. Wall them off, and save the rest of the nation the headaches.

"Wall them off, and save the rest of the nation the headaches."

I'm with you on that.
