Life on the New York City Plantation

As the recently deceased former New York mayor Ed Koch blithely proclaimed upon losing a primary election "The People have spoken... and they must be punished."

The people of New York spoke and elected proud far out lefty (no, that is not "progressive") Bill de Blasio (D) as mayor. Will they be punished? Inaugurated yesterday on New Year's Day, the speeches provided a preview.


The first speaker, wealthy entertainer Harry Belafonte, set the tone.
While it is encouraging to know that the statistics have indicated a recent drop in our city's murder rate, New York alarmingly plays a tragic role in the fact that our nation has the largest prison population in the world," Belafonte said. "Much of that problem stems from issues of race, perpetuated by the depth of human indifference to poverty." "Changing the stop-and-frisk law is as important as it is the change of the law is only the tip of the iceberg in fixing our deeply Dickensian justice system,

​
Offering an inaugural prayer filled with Civil War and slavery references, Pastor Fred Lucas Junior, who receives almost $25,000 as chaplain of the city's Department of Sanitation,
"Sound forth the trumpets of heaven proclaiming a new Emancipation Proclamation in New York City. "For your divine leadership, emancipate every New Yorker from the shackles of fear, futility, and frustration."
(snip)

"Help us to be mastered by only the masters of love and compassion." "Let integrity never stand on the auction block or be sold to the highest bidder."
(snip)
"Free us from the shackles of partisan politics, political correctness, and personal egos and agendas," Lucas railed. "End the civil wars and usher in a new Reconstruction Era that builds upon the many successes and achievements of yesterday."

​
The pastor concluded by blasting the "plantation called New York City."

From the above linked NY Post editorial: "There is just no question that Stop-Question-Frisk has saved countless lives. And we know that most of the lives saved, based on the statistics, have been black and Hispanic young men."

I wonder if Pastor Fred Lucas Junior is ever going to address that important aspect of this debate...

The SQF issue is an issue completely blown out of proportion.

The lie is that this is something unique to the NYPD, when in fact every police department in the country does it. It is something that the US Supreme Court endorsed long ago in Terry vs. Ohio.

Rewriting history is one of their special talents. They can fool naive college kids, but not those of us who were there and paid attention.

I think they are failing to fool the college kids, based on the poll numbers I've seen for that demographic.

The Obama base on JPP seems to be largely angry old white men, doesn't it?
 
The left was quite adept at peddling lies here in NYC.

The lie about the soft drink ban actually went viral across the country.
SQ and Frisk became the second.

Basically, Di Blasio came to power on the back of very well orchestrated liberal lies.

Let's watch to see how Democrat de Blasios' leftist policies degrade the quality of life in the Big Apple, and point out his failures often.
 
It will be interesting to see if the rich leave to avoid massive taxation. While many left for Florida a while back, not all of them are gone yet.
 
Paying more and more taxes is patriotic. Global warming is real. Abortion isn't killing a human being. You can keep your health care. Tea Party is racist. Etc.
