Damn. Even Gorge W. Bush out presidented Trump!

I am trying to find more to verify, but NY people, be safe. It looks like the NYPD are gearing up for a bad weekend.

Already at the job and normally my shift begins at 11pm. But with curfew and the cops I thought my first night back since Monday (I was in South Manhattan right in the thick of it for three nights.) I should head in way early. Yeah they claim they are allowing essential workers to travel but for me I was anxious because my "virus gear", my everyday go to work get up? Yeah... It is very AntiFa lite. Add in that due to lockdown the streets have been empty at night before all this for months I have been bringing a kali stick and a wooden short sword with me for protection. In short it would be SO easy to profile myself as a looter or extremist protester.

I don't want to get into a situation with the cops if I don't have to when I'm just trying to go to work. FML with this curfew.

Can a Federal judge overrule that BS as unconstitutional?

Ask your management to type you a letter confirming you are an employee, your hours, and that you are essential. And have management lost their phone numbers on the paper. That's what my employer did for me in case a cop pulled me at night during the lockdown.

Oh look, just in time to remind us this how performative a lot of this is from our elected officials.

Democratic Rep. Eliot Engel caught on hot mic amid unrest: 'If I didn't have a primary, I wouldn’t care'

Looking Engel up, there's this:

I had to drive around for months with a printed paper that we got e-mailed from corporate naming my workplace and explaining I am designated as an essential worker, just in case I got pulled over and questioned.

This is a great idea. Though considering Krypton is in NYC, I fear that it won't matter.

Yeah. I have a copy of a letter from Steve Mnuchin, a copy of a letter from my employer referencing the letter and me as an essential employee, and my company ID. I thought I might have to actually use it when I went into Santa Monica the other day, but didn't.

I’m sure like most politicians he’s a slime ball, but to be fair it sounded a bit like if I didn’t have a primary I wouldn’t care if I get to speak, as opposed to I wouldn’t care about what’s happening.

But maybe I’m wrong about the context.

Oh I was the one that made the job do that for the workers in the first place.

That matters little under current circumstances. Police are grabbing people willy nilly. While "transit papers" come in handy for the lawsuit after the fact way down the line in the here and now they won't do jack if cops make a decision to bring you in. I'm just feeling this out right now like everybody else. My gut now tells me not to tempt fate.

I can PM you the letter from barfnuchin if you want to give it to your employer and think it would help, but I'd think they would be on it??

So the only reason he needs to speak is because he has a primary? Rubuen Diaz's (the other gentleman in the video) response to me makes it clear how crappy even that idea is. His care with an election, not why everyone is assembled there.

Also, yeah, he doesn't care.

Why This Democrat Won’t Go Home

Mod Edit: Cursing in the first video.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Cuomo and de Balsio seem determined to remind us how awful they are.

 

[OtherwiseKnownAs]

At least all those people who were saying "Cuomo should run for President!" a month ago will start pretending they never said that.

Also more horribleness from Buffalo

 

[OtherwiseKnownAs]

Let me just say, it's becoming incredibly difficult to find live-videos of police brutality that doesn't involve cursing. Strange days.

 

[Schlosser85]

I wasn’t very impressed with de Blasio when he was a presidential candidate, but I’d probably consider voting for Cuomo, and no “probably” about it if it was him versus Trump.

If Cuomo was running against Biden for the democratic nomination, I’d probably vote for Biden because I think he has a built in wellspring of support from African-Americans because of being Obama’s VP, which I don’t think Cuomo has any equivalent of.

If Cuomo wanted to be anything other than Governor of New York, which is probably where he should stay for the duration of the pandemic because it’s never ideal to change leaders during a crisis (unless said leader is Trump), I’d rather he go back to having some Cabinet position like he had before with Obama.

I know this site has an anti cursing policy, but this is an extremely unique time and a very important event. Its crucial that we share and spread these videos regardless of cursing. Is it really impossible to wave the no cursing rule for this one thread and just put a big warning in the title?

Yeah, it's difficult, but them are the rules. It's why I try to find official news links. They usually blank it out or talk over it.

Deleted my last post, the video was still linked albeit censored, but better safe than sorry. Suffice to say two cops involved in the shoving incident in Buffalo have been suspended without pay.

Should have suspended that whole mob.
