It’s always the people who are the loudest about “law and order” that don’t actually care about either.

Well they aren't "above the law" if they're subject to fines under the law though right?

If you stole multiple thousands of dollars from your employer, would you get fine and and “aw shucks, don’t do that again”? Or would you be fired, blacklisted, and possibly sent to prison?

That’s the difference.

You know that Lee Zeldin wasn’t running for Mayor of New York, right? The New York Mayor’s race was decided by the democratic primary, the genera election was forgone conclusion, especially since the Republicans couldn’t run anyone better than Curtis Sliwa.

We have Adams as our Mayor and not someone competent, like Kathryn Garcia, because many people voted for Adams in the primary because they thought he was black. But he’s actually just blue, because no color other than that matters to the NYPD.

Same. Garcia would have been amazing. We need a mayor who is just boring, competent, and hardworking. Not a flashy asshole with no substance who thinks the mayoralty is just a stepping stone to higher office.
