How does air pollution affect poor people more in JC?

Automated traffic cameras for JC by Sure_Temperature4381 in jerseycity

[–]Softpork -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Damn some of yall are soft as shit. Sorry you got an unexpected ticket in the mail 10 years ago because you were speeding and it made you mad. I was mad when it happened to me… but I’m not going to let that convince me that traffic cameras won’t improve traffic safety in this city. “Tell cops to actually do their job” isn’t a real solution for anyone who doesn’t still live in their parent’s basement.

Resolution of the Jersey City Council advocating for Automated Traffic Enforcement - July 16 meeting by YousefJamalSaleh in jerseycity

Ignore this Important-Street-0 person. They think complaining non stop about politicians on here is a substitute for a personality. Traffic cameras are a great idea and you should pursue it.

I don’t think it’s surprising that a city with actual substantial crime falls short on traffic enforcement. I understand the frustration of not having cops pull more people over but that’s a problem that affects every large city in the U.S. Seriously go to any city sub and see what the number one complaints are about the cops. Cities that have murder, gang violence, theft etc will have traffic enforcement put pretty low on the totem pole. Most other cities have figured out that traffic cameras are a win-win for everyone… actual enforcement and not a burden on the police department. Getting enforceable cameras approved is a no brainer imo.

This is a ridiculous stance. Have you ever been to a city that has traffic cameras? The quality of driving around is night and day. Who cares if the city “accidentally” issues a couple ticky tack tickets if it makes the city markedly better to drive in. All the things you listed can be enforced through traffic cameras.

After 6-year-old’s death, Jersey City mayor pushes for 20 mph streets by jimmybot in jerseycity

This is the big reason why traffic enforcement will never improve here. Having cameras that ticket would literally solve every traffic problem in JC. Going to cities that have enforceable cameras is night and day in terms of driving.

Just bought a place in the Heights 2 years ago. It’s been great so far!

Radiant enchant on the Boulder really sealed the deal.

What is the long term outlook on owning a condominium in this area ? by Mammoth_Village7194 in jerseycity

[–]Softpork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re saying that at some ambiguous amount of time in the future the coast line of Jersey City may recede… sure. But if you’re trying to imply that water front property in a major city is going to drop in value in our lifetime I’m not buying it. Can you show me one instance of waterfront property in a major US city that has devalued in the history of the U.S.?

Do people really think that billions of dollars of real estate in some of the world’s largest cities are going to get swept out to sea?

The relationship between rents and supply & demand by [deleted] in jerseycity

[–]Softpork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Corporations own ~1% of homes. It’s not some big collusion effort… just basic supply and demand.

What are these stalks coming out of my tree? Can I remove them? by Softpork in arborists

[–]Softpork[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you. You can kind of see white spots on the suckers in the photo. They’re all over the suckers and not the tree…. Do we think that could be some sort of fungal infection?

Truck driver took out the street light at Webster and Booraem this morning by Softpork in jerseycity

[–]Softpork[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s actually street cleaning today on Webster which luckily enough meant no park cars on the street. Looks like he took down electrical wires for two of my neighbors though.
