If you were strangled on the subway how long would it be until they arrest your killer? Or would they arrest him at all? give him a medal?

Maybe you have no criminal record, maybe you have been paying rent. Maybe you are a pillar of your community and help at the local community garden. But maybe you aren’t white, aren’t Christian, or have “radical antifa” ties online. Maybe you live in a “bad” neighborhood (or like me in a good neighborhood that outsiders assume to be bad)

@futurebird I find it more damning that he was a marine. Its like a boxer hitting and killing someone. His hands are weapons. So is a marine.

So he should be held to even higher standards in this because he should have known what the hold could do moreso than some john doe on the street.

@csnetprogrammer @mybarkingdogs @futurebird #NYC person in agreement here. He should be behind bars. Mayor Adams’ lack of empathy and lack of response is a classist disgrace.

@goodthinking @csnetprogrammer @futurebird I don't even know why Adams doesn't just switch parties. He reminds me a lot of Jailiani and in all the bad ways.

@goodthinking @csnetprogrammer @futurebird (not like there were any good things with The Perv short of managing to strike all the right platitudes on day-of 9-11, but Adams seems to be completely replicating the "crimewave" garbage, the hate, the "never found a GOP talking point he doesn't like" and it's just ugh even to me as an outsider.)
