Black protester carries injured white man through crowd to safety ...

The black man seen carrying an injured white man to safety during a chaotic scene at protests in London told CNN he did it to avoid catastrophe.
The image of Patrick Hutchinson's selfless act has now spread across the globe. Hutchinson told CNN it was the first Black Lives Matter protest he attended, and he helped the white man because he didn't want the main reason for the protests to be lost in one moment of violence.
Comment: 

The media is promoting their own engrossment or at least their continuous ignorance.

This is a human being helping another human being out of danger.  So is others around him assisting.
Adding a color to the person wasn't in the mind of this group.  Just a thought.

The MTA’s multimillion-dollar effort to shrink the homeless population in the city’s subways has been an expensive bust, the agency’s watchdog says in a damning new report.
Complaints about vagrants in the system surged after the agency last year revamped its $5 million annual effort to get the unsheltered out of the subways and into shelters — while homeless-related train delays continued apace, MTA Inspector General Carolyn Pokorny’s office found.
The “very expensive” and “minimally effective” program cost at least $2.6 million in overtime on top of the contact but 10-person teams of MTA cops and social workers from contractor Bowery Residents’ Committee lured just three transients out of the system per station per night, the report said.
“On the nights OIG staff observed the program, dozens of apparently homeless individuals stayed on the trains for every 1 that accepted services,” IG staff wrote.

Mooning - Wikipedia


The New York Daily News reports Emily Gallagher once pulled down her pants and mooned a couple that she saw having sex in Syracuse  and blogged about it on Live journal in 2003. 

Gallagher, a Rochester native who was a 19-year-old student at Ithaca College at the time, said the incident happened while she was visiting friends in Syracuse.  

Not only did I stare at people who were having sex in front of a window, but I remained even after they noticed me,” she wrote. “I waved, smiled, and when the girl flipped out I mooned her. You’d think i was on drugs ... but no!”

Gallagher, now 36 and living in Brooklyn’s Greenpoint neighborhood.
Gallagher is running against longtime NYS Assemblyman Joe Lentol for District 50.
Precious assets, cheek to cheek.       Just a thought.

Destruction...


Wendy's employee who burned down restaurant sentenced to nearly ...

An Atlanta Wendy’s where Rayshard Brooks, 27, was fatally shot by police was set on fire.
The restaurant caught fire Saturday after protesters broke windows at the restaurant and threw fireworks inside.  
Images on local television showed the restaurant in flames for more than 45 minutes before fire crews arrived to extinguish the blaze, protected by a line of police officers.
By that time the building was reduced to charred rubble.
Other demonstrators marched onto Interstate-75, stopping traffic, before police used a line of squad cars to hold them back.
Video shot by a bystander captures Brooks struggling with two officers on the ground outside the Wendy’s before breaking free and running across the parking lot with what appears to be a police Taser in his hand.
It is going to take a lot of time and a lot of money to fix this Wendy's location, rebuild it if it is worth that. The money will be coming from the insurance  and since this is deliberate, the insurance cost will go up and up for your neighborhood. 
And since Bill Gate and Zackerberg are not going to this Wendy to buy their chicken sandwiches any more, the destruction will impact local families. Not to mention the local workers are now out of a job. You certainly have done something that eventually will help those you said matters to you.        Just a thought.

 CNN poll conducted by SSRS and released on Monday shows Trump trailing the former vice president by 14 points, 55%-41%, among registered voters. It also finds the President's approval rating at 38% -- his worst mark since January 2019, and roughly on par with approval ratings for one-term Presidents Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush at this point in their reelection years -- and his disapproval rating at 57%.
In the letter to Zucker, the Trump campaign argued that the CNN poll is "designed to mislead American voters through a biased questionnaire and skewed sampling."
"It's a stunt and a phony poll to cause voter suppression, stifle momentum and enthusiasm for the President, and present a false view generally of the actual support across America for the President," read the letter, signed by the Trump campaign's senior legal adviser Jenna Ellis and chief operating officer Michael Glassner.
