I moved back to NYC after over a decade and this place is a total police state gentrified hole compared to the old NYC I remembered...sad
I asked a NYPD why the fascist mentality nowdays but the officer said its becasue they have so many citations to write and the "criminality"....
Another US city turned into a yuppie whitebread sh1thole with cops tosing anyone off the streets who break the whitebread mentality...
All I have to say is this is not the NYC I remember...so boring and...well a feeling of occupation.
I am very dissapointed wherever I travel nowdays...coffeeshops gone, artists driven out wherever I go.
Who knows what the fate of this country is with all the finer aspects opressed from this last generation.
Yeah, damn the cops for doing their job. Oh ,wait -they are just tools of "the man", right? :roll:
"total police state" :roll: how cute.
err police have no buisness using heavy handed crap on residents and working class folk..
Being an asshole to normal people who pay your wages through taxes with a bigass attitude does make you part of "the man" granted most of this new influx of cops seems to be suburbanites with a attitude not from the city so whatever...
Times change, sooner or later these gung ho dickheads will lose their jobs and get back to beating and being pricks to their own families instead of the residents of NYC who have already put up with too much outside grandstanding and BS.
*sigh* I've missed you Steep, but I can't say I've missed your ignorant and deluded posts. You claim so much to be in touch with "real people," despite the fact that you too simple stay within your little clique and condemn all those you see on the outside. While coffeshops owners and artists are vital members of society, they do not represent its majority and are certainly no more superior or important than the 9-5 white-collar employee, the policemen who protect your ungrateful ass, or the stay-at-home moms who raise their kids and participate in bake sells for charity.
You're simply another close-minded bigot, much like the kind you oft complain about, but you somehow believe youself to be superior simply because you peer out the windows of you little safe-house on the east side of the street, instead of the west.
It's truly a shame that someone who's as well travel as you claim to be chose to wear his safety blinders on all his journeys, just to confirm his own narrow-minded ideals to be correct, and the most prevalent. You bitch and moan about how everyone looks down upon you and "your people," out of fear of the unknown, yet in the same breath accuse people you don't know of all being racists, ignorant, wife-abusing, whitebread pigs. Does your hypocrisy know no bounds, you poor wretched soul?
