An NYPD officer caught on video standing by and watching as a lieutenant was ruthlessly beaten on a subway car by two men in the Bronx was put on desk duty and had his gun taken away, officials said. [More]
What about repercussions when they let worse happen to “civilians”? Anything ever happen to Terrence Howell, who took credit for a takedown he hid from while a citizen with the fighting skills to ultimately prevail was being stabbed?
With the Coward of Broward and Uvalde, and with citizens being arrested tor getting involved to protect others, who in their right mind would Back the Yellow?

The Brooklyn District Attorney had “no choice but to dismiss” Council Member Inna Vernikov’s weapons charge given her gun was “inoperable” … The council member’s charge, criminal possession of a firearm, requires the weapon in question be “capable of firing bullets” — meaning Vernikov’s charges wouldn’t stand, according to the District Attorney’s office.

So you’ve learned nothing?
NYC Mayor Eric Adams leads call for Speaker Mike Johnson to pass assault weapons ban [More]
Anything to add, Tucker…?
UPDATE
Suddenly the need for alternative headlines becomes clear:
Eric Adams had cellphones, iPad seized by FBI as part of corruption investigation
New York man who saved woman from subway mugging by scaring off would-be robber with warning shot arrested [More]
The only question here is who’s the more execrable tyrant functionary: Richard “We don’t tolerate this kind of conduct in NYC Transit, period” Davies or Jerry “The defendant was on the street with a loaded, unlicensed gun“ Iannece?
The state can’t protect you and will punish you for protecting yourself or others.
Who would consent to be governed by that?
Mayor Eric Adams Warns Again: Illegal Immigration ‘Devastating’ New York City [More]
It’s devastating everywhere you’d rather have them sent, Eric.
