“Dark completion” — who would have thought?
And communist Madmani wants to defund the police, and replace them with social workers. I think we should defund the social workers and double the size of the NYPD more officers on the street not in cars.
Yup, what’s there to say except the same old.

He should have moved and permanently stayed in Israel.
NYC is very bad, Israel is a peaceful place were people help each other.
NYC is not a safe peaceful place. It is full of deranged and mentally sick people.
“Labi … called for better support for individuals exhibiting dangerous behavior in the city.” I think this is what mamdani suggested, not to arrest but instead dispatch social workers to provide support for the criminals on the city dime while the crime victims will pay out of pocket.
If I lived in Crown heights I would get the heck out of now. The wild animals will have free rein when this this shtik drek Mamdani gets in And your city reps are just as bad as the looters and rioters.
How many blacks were his patients and it’s his reward!
right, for sure he was randomly attacked it wasn’t because he was Jewish.
Every Jew, a 22
Hey guys, he didn’t say he was black, the assailant had a dark complexion like the Jews from Arab countries, or Arabs Asians.
I think this is something new to watch in the changing bio politics. How do you say Islamic looking when really Islam is a religion.
I couldn’t Arabs from Jews in Israel the racia visuals are getting complex my friends.
Dark skin does not mean Bkack anymore and Black peoples seem to be posing low threats against Jews. Of course if they’re not Muslims, which most in America are not. Wow, so complex.
