Lol

Like you complain a lot for someone who does not live within the confines of NYC, you dont think?

Like I told you, you keep clapping it up for NYC's demise, I want to see how you will eat after that

I've had enough of the denouncing and you don't even live here

You're on the teat, don't complain there's no chocolate or strawberry milk today

I know that one is lost on you

I listed a chain of events. Show up, arrest, prosecute. All directed at the criminal justice system chain.

Let's just chalk this up to the written word being inherently difficult at times. We don't have to result to belittling people over reading\writing. It's kinda funny actually to be told I don't have a proper education.

P.S. One of my friends was a DA, and a couple have been police officers.

It's ok, being told I don't have a proper education is probably the funniest thing I've read this week. People may not agree with me but after decades in an intense STEM field and a penchant for reading and history that ones a real cherry lmao.

NYC seems to do a generally better job than a lot of large cities....just based on raw data. I lived in Chicago and have many dear friends and family there and THEY have problems.

I respect the pragmatism of New Yorkers. Just look at the migrant crisis. NY Mayor is calling out the root cause, the Chicago Mayor is simping to the party and not taking care of their city.

I’m pretty sure that comment was aimed at the general NYC electorate. Not you.

Where have I "Clapped it up" for NYC demise? I want NYC to get better.

Show me a few instances, or even just one, where I cheer for NYC to go downhill?

I simply call out the silliness

Same. NYC is a cash cow. My pension and both of my jobs rely on a strong NYC. I’ll just never live there again.

Well maybe a better approach would be to call out the silliness to your local officials

Oops I forgot

You don't live here

I work in NYC and most of my immediate and extended family lives in the Bronx. Arguably my feet are in the Bronx more than at home.

I have a vested interest in NYC flourishing which is why I call out the silliness. I've explained this to you many times but you keep going back to "But you don't live here!" argument. It's old.

Still don't see a direct link for an example of where I am calling for NYC to fail
