Reply to comment by mowotlarx in Study shows those released under NY's bail reform laws are less likely to get rearrested by mowotlarx
Okay well the ones that ARE being released pretrial for violent crimes are being arrested at higher rates than before bail reform. Maybe we can have some common sense and change that portion?
And the disingenuous part was the headline not the study.

No one’s going to feel sorry for someone making $150k not being able to find the perfect apartment. Talk about being tone deaf.

“The one exception was for bail-eligible people who were released following recent violent felony arrests. The rate of rearrests for that cohort of offenders increased slightly.”
I mean they always talk about bail reform and violent crimes, and it looks like this article proved them correct.

Okay, this is the statistic most people actually care about. Disingenuous headline from the gothamist, as usual.

His father was an attorney and popular podcaster with a several million dollar net worth. He was able to comfortably live at home before finally DECIDING it was time to move out. That’s privilege, sorry.

Does complaining about an $150k salary at 24 years old and not being able to find an apartment with a washer and dryer scream of privilege?

“Chi himself grew up in the Brooklyn neighborhoods of Park Slope and Crown Heights and went to local schools before attending the private Quaker school Friends Seminary in Manhattan starting in sixth grade, where he was on a scholarship”
“Ossé’s Brooklyn bona fides are undeniable. His grandfather was Teddy Vann, a music producer who grew up in Brooklyn’s Bensonhurst neighborhood, won a Grammy working with his longtime protege Luther Vandross, and collaborated with artists like Sam Cooke and Bob Dylan. His father Reginald Ossé, who passed away in 2017 from colon cancer, was a legendary hip-hop podcaster, journalist and attorney known as Combat Jack.”
A product of private school and privilege.

“Mr. Ossé is the son of a prominent hip-hop lawyer and podcaster, Reggie Ossé, better known as Combat Jack, who died in 2017. Mr. Ossé acknowledges his privileges.”
He’s been able to live in his parents townhome rent free before getting a job with an $150k salary at 24, and even with that salary is still complaining about mundane things like not being able to find an apartment with a washer and dryer. That’s privilege.

But some of them don’t have a washer and dryer. The absolute horrors this individual is facing while searching for an apartment are unimaginable.

The lines are definitely becoming blurred. Go on tiktok and you’ll see half of an interaction and it’ll get millions of views with strong opinions with no context. I’m pretty sure that’s what the people filming here were hoping for. A “viral” moment, hence the antagonizing and encouraging going on.

Just goes to show how ridiculous and out of touch people are on this sub! Justifying and encouraging assaulting cops and the “peanut gallery” filming and encouraging it.

Even if what he said happened was true, would you allow a stranger to use your phone?

Based on the reactions of the “peanut gallery” I’m sure that’s exactly what happened! None of his friends or the bystanders could let them use their phone. He had to ask the cops to use their phone. Even so, I didn’t know you’re allowed to physically assault someone for hurting your feelings.
