Fuck the police.
The NYPD has clarified that the victim is not a migrant. And in true NYPD fashion, they have given HIM a summons for disorderly conduct while not taking any apparent action against Sliwa’s gang. apnews.com/article/guar...

Oh sure you say that now but the next time you get beaten by a mob of vigilantes I'd like to see who you'd want to show up and charge you with a crime and ignore them. I'd like to see a social worker do that. You'll change your tune then.

Considering how much the police are whiney cowardly bitches I think the social worker would do just fine.

Didn't read the actual words in the skeet you're replying to, huh?

After Sliwa's "had to put him down" after the crime of speaking Spanish in public and the cops handling this, fuck. Powerfully fucking angry. Need to go to bed before blood pressure spike kills me.

Curtis Sliwa was a jumped up thug all the way back in the 80's when this 'Guardian Angel' shit started...and the only reason I didn't vote in the election that netted up Worst Mayor Ever Eric Adams was because this nimnumb was the Republican mayoral candidate.

Giuliani was mayor for six years, Eric Adams sucks, but even he doesn't suck that much.

Oh yes he does ... And I say that as someone who used to work across the street from City Hall during giuliani's run and contemplated being a rifle to work and solving New York's problem every single day.

Does the victim have a civil case against Sliwa and his gangsters?

Yes, but a more important aspect of this might be to look at the alliance between the police and a revived-from-the-dead paramilitary vigilante group in our largest city, blessed on a major media channel, and to think about how and where else this is happening. Hannah Arendt and all that.

Or to paraphrase Hugo Jarry from Deadwood: “You do not fuck the police, sir. The police fuck you.”

And people wonder why victims don't call for help....

Is it the same Sliwa as in days gone by? Or his kid?

I think I first learned of Sliwa was SNL in the Belushi days or something. The last name sticks out and I don't think I'd heard it for 40 years and then "wait, that dude is still alive?"

Hard same. Belushi’s been dead 40+ years. We’re old.

My body agrees, my brain sometimes thinks I'm 12...until I have to stand up or you know, do movement-y things.

Well, listen, it's not like there's a recording of what happened. Wait, I'm getting an update now...huh. How about that?

What's the charge for getting thrown out of a moving car? Jaywalking?

ACAB, Vigilantes are even worse
the history of the guardian angels in major population centers is long and overflowing with stories of unfortunate social injustice larpers. their rise and fall in Los Angeles is informative. it would be interesting to interview some that have escaped the cult.

As I noted on the other site, crime in NYC is down 75% since the Guardian Angels were founded. They have long outlived what use they might have once had.

Wait a minute, didn't they steal his shoes and backpack or something like that ?
