First a shot in Times Square hitting a Brazilian tourist, now a Texas tourist is beaten… I understand crowds of tourists can be annoying to locals, but just avoid the tourist areas. The last thing NYC needs is for its tourist industry to enter into a crisis.

How can NYC even have any tourists these days? The people who are still visiting the place must be pretty stupid because it's all over the news every night on what a cesspool it has become. Good people who live there maybe can't get out but no tourist in their right mind should be going there.

Somebody needs to follow her slaps with a punch in the face.

And you believe everything you see on the news? It's not a cesspool. You (and the news) are exaggerating. A few incidents in a city with millions of residents and tourists does not a cesspool make.

Truly bizarre. I wish they had taken her out, punched her, something. I'm upset that no one did!

She might be mentally ill, in which case a mental evaluation is in order. Jail isn't always the answer.

The laws as they are applied in NYC do not punish anyone unless they have committed crimes on migrants or minorities. This women has the "Get Out Of Jail Free" card... she is black and committed what will amount to be a minor infraction with no consequences/fines/punishment. And to add... she only did this to a white woman.

My advice... go someplace else for a decade or two and see if NYC can climb out of the same doldrums it was in back in the 80's/early 90's.

I worked in that zoo for over 40 years. I've seen the worst of it, then the best of it, and now in the worst of it again. In my opinion this time it's worse. My reason... it isn't the place a business has to be in order to make it big because of the modern times we live in. Financial companies, large corporations, those looking to make it big... they can do it from a distance and not have to endure the crime, the cost, the insanity.

The last straw will be when the NYSE moves to Florida. Think it won't happen? Talk to me again before this decade is done. The negotiations are already taking place.

I don't just see NYC news videos, I read NYC newspapers online. I wouldn't even drive through NYC on my way to someplace else. And my news from various sources comes from the mouths of residents, former residents, your mayor and your police. You don't even prosecute your violent criminals. Maybe you are the one who isn't getting your news.
