That being said, apologies if I read something unintended into your words. You're right, I'm so used to everyone and everything being either left or right that I forget that there are some rational people left in the middle.
I figured. I’m just so tired of extreme politics. Glad you feel the same. Just trying to keep “f you liberal” or visa versa out of the NYC forum best I can.

People think places like NYC and California are all “liberals”, yet these MASSIVE cities and states are much more diverse than that.

P.S. I think the majority of Americans are moderate even if they don’t want to admit it during our current political climate.

Have a happy new year!

Liberals used to fix for equal rights and opportunities. Today it's not even about that anymore, it's about anarchy. Look at what they did to Seattle, that is what they wanted. Lawlessness.

More reasons companies will not return to work in NYC anytime soon even with the vaccine. It's not safe for employees to return. That's why covid is the great reset. This will be a lost decade for NYC, I don't think NYC will ever return to the big hustle and shuffle until the government changes their stance and pushes out all the deplorables from the area. Maybe other mayor wannabees won't cuddle with BLM as much because it's the anti-police policies that will continue to hurt the city's image.

You hurt the hand that feeds you, DeBlasio! He is such an effing moron.

According to your logic, every crime committed by one race against another is racist.
Not far wrong if the crime was murder.

Quote:
Prove that he wouldn't have done the same if the guy was white.
Or provide the tape where he mentioned Floyd's race as evidence of his racist motivation.
It is nearly impossible to prove a negative.
Hmmm, I cannot seem to figure out how to get that tape into my PC. Any suggestions?

I look forward to being hit by a block of cider but I would prefer it melted first.

Impossible to prove a negative? Well, that's what you're asking Chauvin to do. You've already declared him to be a racist. How can he prove he isn't? How does he prove a negative if you yourself just admitted it's "nearly impossible"?

Hate crimes go solely to motivation, not the type of crime or the race of the parties involved. In the eyes of the law, the mere fact that a victim is of a different race than the perpetrator is not sufficient.
