Jr...

 A woman, 64, was issued a criminal court summons for illegal posting of flyers. A photo provided by police showed one of the flyers designed like an internet meme, with a close-up picture of 1-year-old shooting victim Davell Gardner Jr. under the words "DID MY LIFE MATTER" followed by a crying emoji.

Next to Gardner’s picture was a message written in red marker: “I wasn’t killed by a cop. I was killed by a Black person. Where’s BLM?”

To Go...

New York, New Jersey and Connecticut are now requiring visitors from 31 states to quarantine for 14 days in an effort to combat the growing number of coronavirus cases in the country.

The metro area announced Tuesday that 10 additional states would be added to the travel advisory that mandates the quarantine: Alaska, Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Virginia and Washington. Minnesota was removed from last week's list.

The new travel restrictions come as New York attempts to protect itself from further serious outbreaks across the country after the tri-state area was the U.S.'s initial epicenter for COVID-19 earlier this year.  

New York experienced its peak of new COVID-19 cases in early April, with 12,274 new cases on April 4, but now has a seven-day average of 725 new cases per day, according to New York Times data. Since the beginning of the pandemic, New York has confirmed 408,181 cases and 35,058 deaths.

Soon New Yorkers would be unable to go anywhere. Just a thought.

Yep...

Foley...

Go ahead boys-Make my day.

A line of NYPD officers in riot gear cleared out the remaining Occupy City Hall protesters from their month-long encampment early Wednesday, police confirmed.

The officers began pushing the remaining occupants north on Centre Street toward Foley Square around 4 a.m.

Seven people were taken into custody during the operation but they were not immediately charged.

About 70 people, including both protesters and the homeless, were camped out when the NYPD contingent moved through, WABC-TV reported.

The goal of the Occupy City Hall protest, which started last month, was to demand $1 billion in cuts to the NYPD’s budget. The encampment remained for weeks after the City Council approved the cuts.

The police appears to disagree. Just a thought.

Tear-Gassed...

A riot was declared in Portland just after midnight Thursday morning after Mayor Ted Wheeler’s tense visit with protesters-- where he was booed, told to resign, given a list of demands and tear-gassed by federal agents.

His visit ended with his security detail engaging in a struggle with protesters late Wednesday night as they worked to get the mayor to safety, a report said.

Earlier, he moved with protesters to the fence outside of the federal courthouse where he stood at the front and was tear-gassed along with the crowd, according to New York Times correspondent Mike Baker.

Wheeler left, a few protesters following him tried to push against his security team once he had entered a building. Others threw water bottles and other projectiles at the glass door, according to Baker.

It is a sad situation when people get hurt as a result of foolishness.  Just a thought.

Redundant...

The NYPD has nixed two key enforcement units and reassigned their officers to work on gun violence prevention, The Post has learned.

Police brass officially pulled the plug on the Traffic Congestion Mitigation unit at 1 a.m. Friday with the transfer of the unit’s 114 members.

The unit, which conducted a majority of NYPD’s enforcement on moving vehicles before its dissolution, was disbanded because it was “redundant,” an NYPD spokesperson said. Traffic enforcement agents who write parking tickets were not impacted.

Police brass also nixed NYPD’s roughly 85-person homeless outreach unit after the City Council and Mayor Bill de Blasio decided to take the responsibility away from cops entirely.

The approximately 200 cops have been reassigned to other precincts.

Well, that is 200 extra officers in a time that the budget and the slow of the economic activities decreased dramatically. Some reduction in budget is in order.

Deliver...

Women, on average, tend to be more attracted to men who have a relatively narrow waist, a V-shaped torso, and broad shoulders. Women also tend to be more attracted to men who are taller than they are, and display a high degree of facial symmetry, as well as relatively masculine facial dimorphism.

“Many men honestly do not know what women want, and women honestly do not know why men find what they want so hard to comprehend and deliver.” Deborah Tannen

Soul...

The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is 'What does a woman want?'

Matter...

Two women were arrested after police said they dumped cans of black paint on the block-long mural on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue.

It marked the third such act of vandalism targeting the street art since Mayor Bill de Blasio helped paint the mural in front of President Trump’s namesake tower on July 9.

Bystanders shot video of the chaotic scene showing police surrounding a Black woman as she used her hands to spread paint on the mural's bright yellow letters.

Refund the police," the woman screamed. “Jesus matters! 

We will never support Black Lives Matters!.”

Shifting...

Mayor Bill de Blasio should take responsibility for the city’s crime wave instead of shifting blame to state judges, the court system’s spokesman said Thursday. Earlier in the day, de Blasio said the courts should be in charge of keeping New Yorkers safe from a surge in shootings.

“I am imploring everyone at the Office of Court Administration, please, we need our court system to run again. We cannot keep this city safe if we don’t have a functioning court system, it has been too many months already. “Please hear our plea because that’s what will keep our communities safe,” De Blasio said.

But Lucian Chalfen, spokesman for the Office of Court Administration, said judges never stopped working.

“Throughout this pandemic, through the unceasing hard work and dedication of judges, non-judicial staff and court officers, the New York State Court system has continued to function. We have never closed: not for one day, not for one hour, not for one minute,” Chalfen said.

“Clearly the Mayor continues to refuse to take any responsibility for his actions, instead shifting the blame,” he added.
