I don`t care what they do, but as far as I`m concerned this city council can go straight to hell following their fantastic 'support' of the Iraq invasion. Hey it was only about three guys with Iraqi passports who first came into this city and blew up the WTC the first time, then these mutts finally bring it down on 911 killing 3k people and this city council has the GALL to pass this demented resolution. And by the way, why is the city coucil just about made up of 95% minorities? I saw a group picture of this council and Gifford Miller was the only white guy in the whole thing. Is this "affirmative action" at work here? Is everyone in the city black and hispanic? Last time I checked it wasn`t.

Wednesday, March 12, 2003 (AP) New York City Council Approves Resolution Opposing Iraq War The City Council in the place hit hardest by the Sept. 11 attacks approved a resolution Wednesday opposing war with Iraq except as a last resort. The 31-17 vote came after months of debate over whether New York should stake out a position. "If we're going to be looking for a fight, let's fight poverty, let's fight firehouse closures, let's fight racism and sexism," said Yvette Clarke, a Democrat who supported the resolution. Democrat Alan Jennings said that after losing one of his closest friends in the World Trade Center attack, he was in no mood to vote for an anti-war measure. "Our troops are in the Middle East at this time to fight for our democracy," Jennings said. "I think this resolution sends the wrong message to our men and women in uniform." The resolution backed war only if "other options for achieving compliance with United Nations resolutions calling for the elimination of weapons of mass destruction and the means of their development have failed." Last month, 100,000 to 350,000 people took part in an anti-war protest near the United Nations. Recent polls show that 75 percent of New Yorkers oppose a war without the support of the United Nations. Since September, anti-war resolutions have been approved in such cities as Los Angeles; Kalamazoo, Mich.; Chicago; Portland, Maine; and Milwaukee. © 2003 The Associated Press

I don`t know if anyone from NYC is going to read that post of mine, but this city council drives me up the freggin` wall like you can`t imagine! The latest example being the council member Davis who was shot after leading his shooter friend around the metal detector. So now the Davis family s suing the city which is another way of saying; "Because city council member Davis insisted on breaking the rules, YOU the taxpayer will pay for that." My big middle finger to all these clowns, and if you`ve ever voted in Queens, the rules go right out the window on election day. Democrat ads all over the polling stations. Democrat shills handing out posters and other crap 5 feet from the entrance which is ILLEGAL! I knew 5 people who were killed on 911 PLUS one who was injured in the first WTC attack, and this is the type of council members you get; "If we're going to be looking for a fight, let's fight poverty, let's fight firehouse closures, let's fight racism and sexism," said Yvette Clarke, a Democrat who supported the resolution. Listen Yvette you stump ass stupid bim, what the hell is ANY of that gonna matter if everyone is DEAD! That`s D-E-A-D! Get it?
