Person of interest in Hell's Kitchen gay bar vandalism taken into custody
Assuming another non bail eligible offense?
Edit: I guess the downvoters are okay with potential hate crimes being ignored, cool.

Don’t be alarmist, micromobility deaths from cars are EXTREMELY rare in this city, you have a higher chance of dying from gun violence
Edit: lol, blocked me. I guess statistics are too much for some people.

They just hate the police in general so will use every excuse to take a “shot” at them.

But but the WFHers on reddit say “corrections officers are mean”. And there’s also too many of them, even tho literally this week people were bitching that there aren’t enough to monitor the inmates leading to increased cases of suicide.

Wasn’t everyone just complaining that there aren’t enough COs to monitor the inmates, Which lead to increased suicide rates on Rikers? So now it’s that’s theres too many? All I’m hearing is a lot of Virtue signaling from people who have never been anywhere near a prison, let alone having worked in one.

You do realize it’s a 24/7 job right, not every corrections officer is there 24 hours a day seven days a week. The amount on shift per inmate is a more accurate statistic

Dude literally follows me everywhere. I compared the violent extremists (ie the ones who used Molotov cocktails) who took part in the 2020 protests to the Jan 6th insurrectionists not just any protestors but again whatever narrative you want to create.

Cool so let’s fire all COs who are 85% PoC and 40% women. Do you care when corrections officers are assaulted by violent inmates too? Or are we just going to virtue signal that all of the inmates are on rikers by accident.

Source on there being more corrections officers on shift at rikers than inmates?

Cool, then lets fire all COs who are 85% PoC and 40% women because some WFHers from Reddit said rikers isn’t a nice place.

Do you work on Rikers? Do you know what actually goes on there or what it’s like working there?

I don’t think a new second ave subway station is going to be on the top of their of spending list. It cost $2.7 billion per mile for the last segment. Also, these are union jobs, you can’t just fire them.

Fare box revenue is a lot higher of a percentage than I thought it was. Imagine if we somehow had a system that made it impossible to jump the turnstile.

Reworking the entire subway system to have conductorless cars would cost probably 100X what they pay the conductors in overtime.

The MTA lost 150+ employees to Covid. They need to have conductors to keep the trains running. You have to pay overtime if they work more than 40 hours a week. The civil servants aren’t the problem.

They actually haven’t stopped reporting on crime, it just isn’t allowed to be posted here out of the “megathread”

Bikes in general should be regulated similar to how cars and scooters are, including requiring mirrors. Require registration, and inspections for eBikes since clearly they’ve become a hazard to an extent. The manufacturers should be regulated to make sure they’re using approved safe batteries.

Yea the “freaks” who own the gay bar that was vandalized in Hells Kitchen are “freaks” for being concerned with crime.
