Just now, channel 4 didn't have the guts to show it -- froze the video before the hammering. It is "too disturbing."

Horrible.

Regarding the cane, the people that use one range from needing the cane to get up and stay standing to very mild cases where a person doesn’t walk exactly as they used it and/or aren’t able to walk in a straight line. In the mild cases, the person can stand up and walk without the cane. That’s not the issue and if walking in a straight line isn’t an issue, then they can walk without the cane.

If a person recovered from a head injury or are avoiding a hip fracture or have leg/feet/coordination problems; using a cane adds extra stability if there is a lot of snow/ice on the ground. The same for going up or down stairs.

It was also a hate crime and since it is another (of the thousands) of black attackers you can bet your bottom dollar that your little buddy Mayor Adams will turn a blind eye to this one.
"Mayor Eric Adams on Friday called the Queens attack “just brutal,” while Health Department chief Dr. Dave Chokshi described critically wounded victim NIna Rothschild as “truly a public health hero” who has been working “tirelessly” for the city. "

I guess Jews are on the menu again for the attackers.

I agree with you, it is much worse now, much worse.

Lucky they mentioned the cane.

God knows how many thousands of New Yorkers, including me, might be wearing all black.

My prayers go out to her.

As for our Mayor...............go ahead ....tell us once more how
he defends his brothers NYPD job because he will protect against white supremacists.


With all the recent subway stabbings, rapes and being pushed to the tracks; 461 felony assaults and counting.
More than any since 1997. How many.....Mr.Mayor..........how many have been by White Supremacists?

Nuff said..........

Well now, I don't think he had a way of knowing she was Jewish, ie, I don't think it was that, but her race was quite evident. Just imagine the BLM outcry if he had been white and she black - there would have been no end to it in national media. But since it is reverse, it's "just brutal", nothing special, nothing to see here folks, meh (as Seventh Floor would say), wake me up when there are some real news, since only racists/white supremacists think or say that all lives matter.

Oh please. Cut the anti-Semitic, "they are out to get us" nonsense. It does not apply in this situation. You are just reaching.
The poor lady just happened to be Jewish. She was not wearing a yarmulke or any garments that indicated she was Jewish. She just happened to be a typical, older white female which is a perfect target for these scum. If any group deserves sympathy it's Asians.
This attack just proves that women need to start arming themselves. Next time some sick animal looks at you the wrong way you way your piece at them. And if they get too close you blast the effer.

And the media and the Left are encouraging their rage and hatred.

I doubt you are going get middle aged women who have never handled firearms to arm themselves even if they can legally find a way to do so.
