Bloomberg was a disaster for the very concept of civil service in this city.

Ah yes, let's ignore the systemic issues and blame the underpaid, overworked, and inexperienced people who are left after decades of budget cuts with the aim of trying to replace them with private sector contractors.

There was a time when America was proud of its city halls and its governments; about the same time it was building infrastructure. But then certain political party….

I really hope for this not to be true. You should definitely call the local police department and have them open an investigation. If there is a cruel person abusing these cats they should be charged the same as if it was done to humans and spend the rest of their lives in prison. I feel like you need to be on a different level of evilness to commit these crimes to kittens that are helpless.

Thank you. People don't understand what losing a significant part of your civil service actually means. Then they turn around and ask why the city takes so long to do shit.

Because NYC alone contributes 8% of the entire country's GDP, far higher than any other city and higher than every state except California and Texas. It's in the Fed's interest that NYC is up and running.

Yeah the only bad part is that it’s $6.75 each way so for my commute it adds up!

Reply to comment by originalmango in Modular Portland Loo Toilets Will Be Tried in NYC Parks - THE CITY by space_______kat
If these get taken over by the homeless, they have failed
Karrick t1_jac8yc5 wrote
People in here bitching about the added cost but ignoring the fact that they're putting them in new locations and parks are not just blanketed in usable water and power lines.
>Parks Department spokesperson Meghan Lalor said the budgeted Portland Loo price tag included costs for running new electric and water lines to the units, along with prep work, foundation work and other construction needs. >...
>“We are installing Portland Loos in one park in each borough, in areas specifically chosen because they did not previously have bathrooms,” said Lalor.
Of course that shit's going to inflate the cost, you need to tap into water and electric from either inside the park or from the street. That's going to likely require digging a new trench, buying and laying new pipe and conduit, pouring a concrete pad and nevermind what might be in the way of all that work now.

Contact the news. It's the only way to shame the NYPD into actually maybe potentially caring. (I'm serious about the news)

Reply to comment by Useful-Suspect-6540 in NYC council votes to name street after antisemitic Nation of Islam leader by drpvn
The Christian and Jewish God (as modernly interpreted) gave people free will. The Islamic God requires submission.
I can't think if a more different approach: freedom or submission.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in NYC fishmonger says melee could have been avoided if victim ‘wasn’t stealing’ by madeyoulookatmynuts
That's your upbringing. Some of us were raised that it's better to be killed than to surrender. The crooks know that. They sense it. So they choose their victims carefully.

It's kinda fucking me up that you felt the need to say this. It's like saying "rape and murder is never ok", yeah no shit... but you're right. There ARE people out there who need to hear it, and that is seriously messed up.

“more aggressive with toll evaders”
y’all shouldn’t even HAVE those tolls the prices are ridiculous and eve asking police to be more aggressive on anything means you are an enemy of the people

Why shouldn't there be tolls?
Should we be aggressive against violent criminals? Rapists? Pedophiles? Or should we just let then break laws to their liking? If you feel that's different it's not, it's just your tolerance for illegal activity is different. If you don't feel like thr laws are fare, fix the laws.
