Nearly 30,000 signatures. Thanks for reminding me that there's some people in the NY Metro region that have brains.

I was going through the petition and just a few questions: 1) Is there a limit one person can sign the petition as the same names keep coming up (provided they put more than their first name which many did not bother to do)? and 2) apparently you don't need to be a resident of NYC or even Long Island or even New York State or even a citizen of the United States of America to sign it.

Yes, the SAME NAMES keep popping up which is why it's 30,000 names. They're probably not even from NYC.

Freaking losers.

Yawning. Sounds like another case of divide and conquer that's going around this city and country. People at the top are laughing at blacks, apologetic liberals and cops from their Park Avenue apartments.

Who exactly is going to run against De Blasio? I don't see anyone with the toughness of Guiliani or the smarts of Bloomberg. Maybe Scott Stringer. John C lui may have been a better option than De blasio.

I really don't get it. A mentally ill black guy kills two cops and somehow it's Deblasio's fault, all because he allowed people to protest against police brutality.

And there are no blacks in those park avenue apartments? Somehow I seriously doubt that. It's not about color, it's about income/class.

Obviously there are Blacks in Park Avenue apartments. While it's true that wealthy people have much higher percentages of whites than the overall population, that still doesn't mean that there aren't wealthy blacks and other non whites.
