Broadway Actor Victim of Subway Attacker — Page 2

The whole point of this thread was the tourist's perspective. If you are including me in "the handful of people", I couldn't care less what the people who do live in the city feel if it is safe or not safe about an increase in subway attacks. It is how I feel. I already stated that an increase in attacks would not be the only factor on deciding on a return visit. Hell, when I visit, I normally walk back to my hotel, several blocks, at 4 am. Most of you on this thread, who do live in the city, would probably say that is unsafe. Each their own.

"DeBlasio has defunded the police department,"

LOL. How ignorant.

No surprise so many Americans got fooled by a reality TV show host con man.

Oh what a SHOCK, he typed sarcastically. On this board, yankeefan believes "de Blasio has defunded the police." What a surprise! LOL

Jeff Bezos is soooooo lucky the Republicans, starting with Reagan, systematically dismantled mental health services in the United States! I mean, if such services had grown to meet the real world needs of the mentally ill, Roxy and yankeesfan might never have seen the realization of all of the base instincts of their party manifest in Trump and run the country into the ground!

Exactly. Plenty of tourists are basically scared of the size of NYC and if they start reading headlines how crime has risen, they are not going to really care what some people on BWW who live in NYC thinks is safe.

I am not going to get into specifics but I have experienced a person in my life having eating disorder which is a mental illness and they were able to get all the help they needed. Was it expensive, heck yes but care was readily available.

Ronald Reagan destroyed the mental health infrastructure in the US. No Republican has EVER done a thing to improve it since.

What color is Trump's fiddle? It's a 9/11's worth of Covid deaths every day now. #NeverForget

"In addition, I don't understand how some on here state that DeBlassio did not defund the NYC police department. He took one billion from the police department's budget and shifted it to other agencies. I have also read articles and watched videos where he, himself, used the word defunded. So why the sarcastic posts?"

I made a point of when I used articles about DeBlasio wanting to shift money from the NYPD that I used ones from the NY Times and NBC and not FOX or the NY Post -lol. Why the sarcastic posts? Very simple, they really dislike me because I will post and not agree with 100% of their views.

"DeBlasio has defunded the police department

Jesus Fu*king Christ. The cluelessness and ignorance of some people is beyond mind boggling. Put DOWN the remote and turn off Fox News. Research what "defund" actually means in 2020.


Such a joy to read your posts as always -lol. See my post #33. Item #1 is definition I got online what the meaning of defund the police is so let me know if you agree. In that same post, I provide three links from articles that states DeBlasio plans to take money from the NYPD which fits the description of defund the police in item #1. I will note the links I provided are from the NY Times and NBC(NY) not FOX. In addition, see post from "Artman" (#39) where he states he has read and heard Deblasio use the term defund the police. Once again, you show how small minded you are and think that anybody does not agree with you politically just watches FOX or reads the NY Post.

You also said you don't care about tourist perspective of NYC safety and like I said to "Kad", maybe you should care. Tourists used to pump a lot of dollars into the NYC economy and the city will hurt big time without it. Your definition of safe is totally different than a tourists perception of safe. Have a nice day.

If wishes were fishes.

He also claims to be a veteran. Where did he serve, Yonkers?

We have lived in NYC all our lives. My wife will not take a bus or subway. She will not eat in a restaurant because Thanks to the media she is wary of eating out. If Co Vid ended tomorrow and we still went to Broadway we would go nowhere near the theater district as it is now like a war zone. If you think tourists are going to flock here again you are dreaming"

Cupcake, remember when we exchanged pms like 7 years ago? I do. You stated you lived in Long Island. I will, once again, tell you: LONG ISLAND IS NOT NEW YORK CITY. THE FIVE BOUROUGHS OF NYC ARE MANHATTAN, BROOKLYN, QUEENS, STATEN ISLAND AND THE BRONX.

You also said you don't care about tourist perspective of NYC safety and like I said to "Kad", maybe you should care.

I stated who I don't want around NYC, but I will be more clear. I don't want the posters lying about NYC in this thread to come here. You don't belong here. All you do is complain and assume you know what it looks like right now. We don't want or need people like you vacationing here. We are not "lucky" you come here. We don't "owe" you a thank you. I hope that is more clear? You have a nice day.
