It would be a lot in London. But NYC is still America. 2 per day is surprisingly low, IMO. How many drivers in Texas do you think have a loaded weapon in their vehicle? Way more than NYC. The difference is that they can do that legally. But we don't have a border between NYC and Texas. In fact, if every car with a fake Texas dealer plate in NYC brought in one gun, you already have way more than 631.

Right. They need to start pulling over white people for that too. Maybe that's the reason they haven't made a dent in it. They're assessing the driver first. I was gonna pull that guy over for his printed out fake NJ plate, but he's white so it must be legit and we just read it wrong.

I didn't imply anything. I made a joke about him raising NYPD funding.
Your problem is that you're a bootlicker. I hope you at least work for the NYPD PR department with all that shoe polish you ingest.
You also don't give a shit about NYC public schools or the children that attend them. Having any type of discussion with you on that matter is pointless.

You don't even know how to quote someone out of context correctly. Even your idol, the NY Post, knows that you can't put outright fabrications inside quotation marks when cutting a quote short. "and" not "or."
Here's the real implication. You're entirely disingenuous.

$4.9 billion NYPD budget increase on its way. Or make it a cool 10 and cut 5.1 billion more from schools and other things.

Reply to comment by sonyworld in Employer didn't take out NYC local tax by sonyworld
I'm not a tax accountant, but as a self employed person, I have to play tax accountant 4 to 6 times a year. You have to file and pay your taxes every year. Your mom will have to pay penalties on what she owes. If the amounts are small, it's likely that the IRS isn't bothering with coming for whats owed, but they can. Or in this case, NY State dept of taxation instead of the IRS.
Personal income tax is your personal income tax. Withholding is a form of prepayment. It doesn't change your total tax burden, and it isn't a tax on your employer, its on you. Your employer pays separate payroll taxes that you won't even see.

Yeah no shit. People of every race and creed honk in NYC. It's a scourge that has nothing to do with ethnicity or what happens in other countries. White people with Jersey plates are also no strangers to leaning on the horn before the light even turns green.

Where is it in relation to the 7 platform? Could have built a walkway and escalator that goes down from the 7 platform so people don't have to go all the up way to street level and back down to transfer.

Rents in the area beg to differ. Homeless people are a problem, but they don't pay rent. If you're going to let Vornado shove homeless people elsewhere anyway, you could just implement a plan to get the homeless off the street without giving away the city to Vornado.

But you did fly to NYC and land. My sister who lives elsewhere just spent the whole day at the airport and had her flight canceled as well as the 2nd and 3rd options.
You do realize that today was 20 to 30 degrees colder than yesterday, right? And that we had rainstorms the last 2 days. And that we know what happens to water when it's 15 degrees Fahrenheit.
Also, try customs in Europe in the summer. Shit can hit 4 hours sometimes.

So you made a racist comment against mothers of color, but you were also unknowingly racist against white mothers. White mothers don't want their toddlers to leave the house any more than mothers of color. 3-K is about socialization. If your kid hasn't done it before then, you're already behind. The "white" folks put their kids in day care from infancy.
The welfare shit is just nonsense. You clearly don't know how welfare works.

Yeah, Belgium is underwhelming too, even in larger cities. In small towns, they usually have a bus that rarely runs, which is better than US small towns but not by much.

You're right. It's mostly white people. That's why searching minorities at a 90% rate hasn't put a dent in it. Pull over and arrest some white people and the problem will go away pretty quickly. White people are pretty skittish. Set an example. They'll fall in line.
