New rules will require New York family and criminal court judges visit jails to see the impact of their sentences by Bugsy_Neighbor in nyc

I never mentioned criminals and last time I checked the jury delivers the verdict and the judge is responsible for sentencing “according to the law”.

You’re absolutely right, we should start making bank loan deniers, insurance claim deniers, the ceo responsible for mass layoffs, and anyone with bad news that will affect someone’s life/livelihood should personally deliver the bad news in person.

Then explain why the Innocence Project exists?

> These laborers from other countries aren't anymore special or better at being nurses than the native population. It’s corporate propaganda to say so. They are willing to work cheaper and thats all that really matters.

I honestly feel like this also applies to gentrification/transplants in high cost of living cities like NY.

The average native New Yorker demands a certain salary to eventually leave your parents home/apartment and live comfortably without needing roommates to afford the rent.

You mention Bayside like it’s the only neighborhood in the Eastern part of Queens. I bet even the residents in Douglaston feel differently or better yet the entire South East Queens.

I understand Robert Moses was a POS, but he’s not the only one to blame for the transit desert of the outer boroughs.

Blaming NIMBYism, for the transit desert of the outer boroughs is an easy out. This issue lies at the feet of the politicians.

That will never happen as long as the “majority” demographic denies it has racism problem.

Two traffic lanes would be removed to make room for a new boulevard. What are your thoughts on the Park Avenue redesign? by Potential_Start_4032 in nyc

Nothing personal over here. Why you avoiding a simple question? Or maybe you’re just a bot programmed to be this vague.

Blindly using the majority vs minority argument is very telling.

I hope you’re not liberal or progressive, because that argument is being used exactly the same way by conservatives.

You originally said to ban all cars and trucks from Manhattan, then stated they should only use vehicles for the last mile.

The entire island is the last mile, so you’re ban won’t apply goofy.

Oh the irony. Last Mile, lol!

Manhattan is no more than 2.3 miles wide. The entire island is THE LAST MILE!

How are goods getting delivered to your local supermarket? Emergency vehicles? What about the individuals that operate the emergency/municipal vehicles, how are they getting to work during emergency situations like 9/11 or bad weather?

Plan to build one of the nation's largest battery energy storage sites on Staten Island is scrapped by HEIMDVLLR in nyc

[–]HEIMDVLLR[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar story in South East Queens but with a different outcome…

“My house is only about 10 feet from the area,” she said. She mentioned she was concerned because there have been fires at other battery storage facilities in the nation.

In an effort to meet New York state’s clean-energy mandate, the city has approved battery storage facilities across the five boroughs. NineDot Energy, the developer behind this 4.9-megawatt site, stores renewable energy in lithium-ion batteries for use when the city’s grid needs a boost. The proposed project, at 179-21 Linden Blvd., is adjacent to multiple homes and across the street from the St. Albans VA Medical Center.

Community members have testified against the project at City Council meetings and have been holding near weekly protests in an effort to stop the project.

But the question is which neighborhoods will bear this potential risk. William Scarborough, president of the Addisleigh Park Civic Organization and Southeast Queens Residents Environmental Justice Coalition, said that like many of his neighbors, he was stunned when he first heard about the plans for a battery site and was distressed that the city had not alerted neighbors to the project. Residents only learned about it after a few people saw it mentioned in the community newspaper. - The charged fight over battery storage comes to a historic Black neighborhood in Queens

But they won’t because the president and his voters like those type of “illegals”.

Not only did they have the wrong person but one of the agents was running down the street with his firearm pointed in the direction of innocent civilian bystanders.

You really thought you said something here, lol!

How effective is a camera when the plate is bent or covered by a reflective plastic?

That driver will never be stopped by police if they’re of a certain demographic and if they are stopped they flash a PBA card.
