The normalisation of having (750 soldiers) the national guard in NYC's subway stations at the instruction of Kathy Hochul, will end up having civilians stripped of their weapons during bag searches and then having nothing to defend themselves with against attackers. Also gets people accustomed to martial law-lite.

I look forward to part two of the subway chronicles, keep up the coverage, Ben.

if you imply that blacks aren't bad

then that makes me feel really sad

blacks are just regular folks

they got flaws just like all us blokes

.

maybe you don't know any blacks

or afraid of PC attacks

but many blacks are racist too

most other people have no clue

.

bullshit that they can't be racist

claimed without factual basis

no such thing as a magic negro

doesn't mean that they are zero

.

all us nekkid apes are the same

no one race can escape the blame

just more of elite's division

which only merits derision

First off I know American Mass Transit is an instant trip beyond the Third World.

Secondly, I do not believe anything I see on the lamestream media. You mean, a man outside a crowded building is lighting cans on fire, and he is not instantly surrounded by 20 cops? Are you kidding me?

Thirdly, I find it hard to believe somebody could be calmly filming two fighting individuals while everyone else is fleeing. That just does not add up. So call me skeptical.

But putting the National Guard on Subways- what, does the NYPD have some sort of shortage or something?- seems to be a trial balloon on the way to getting Americans used to seeing goons on every corner, just as they have in Third World Hellholes.

Just a sign of the times, and why I have written all the Big Cities off my list of places to visit, and added it to the list of places to avoid- you know- places like holes full of vipers and rat-infested buildings.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us. You are our only hope!

Ah, that's mah hometown an' golly I don't miss whut it's become -- but ya know fer every "fun" viddeyo they put out there (an' I'm partial ta that flame thrower--whoo doggies he wuz brazen an' braisin' !) there's a passle more 'at goes on "down under" unsung an' un-published.... The Subway Chronic-Culls indeedy!

Why there's the obese barefoot dude dressed up as King Tut (long filthy-once-white bathrobe tied with nylon rope) tomb dirt still on 'im! worms likely too!--who shouts holy obscenities an' flings his doodoo--yup, he's at the 34th Street stop! Or there's the F-train "cart laydee" that has a month's worth of soiled clothin' an' fast food wrappers an' open smelly sham-poo! bottles tossed willy nilly in some old rickety grocery cart with a wheel missin' an' she begs $$$ from ya an' when she thinks yer stingy she sends her wheely-cart hurlin' right at'cha an' curses 'bout her "ungrateful children!." Then there's the "space man" in the stained tie-dye shirt who carries with 'im an antenna he done stabbed inta a shoe box---guess it's his "equipment?" -- an' Spaceman believes white people are attackin' all the black men from space an' whin he gits all heated up angry an' dudes tell 'im ta hush up, he puts up his non-spacelike "dukes" an' goes a' hittin' on the naysayers--he's old but he gits in some kicks too!

An' the subways only got worse since we packed up an' moved ta them hills! They never wuz too clean or too reliable (timetables were pure fiction) but 'fore recent times I never knew Pet Clark's "Don't Sleep in the Subway Darlin'" wuz a cautionary tale for us all!

I'm GenX. Graduated from HS in 1987. Read 1984 as a freshman in 1984.

I have always been proud to be American.

Lived in Germany for 3 years, have traveled extensively, and attended the Defense Language Institute to study Russian in 91...

For an American, my exposure to other countries, cultures, and customs is close to the tip of the bell curve--it is probable that only the expats like Ben are the people who have greater overseas experience than I do.

Nearly every time I've returned from overseas I had the impression/feeling of, "That was pretty cool. I like how they do ____ and ____ and ____ and ____. Not a big fan of _____ or _____ or ____. Great to be home! I love my little spot on the globe."

It breaks my heart to acknowledge that, well, uh, hmmm, oh, right--WE SUCK. Our moral collapse threatens everything. We have a woman with a lifetime appointment to our highest court who cannot define a woman. We have half the country who are part of a death cult, whether or not they want to admit it.

We prosecute Daniel Penny while letting violent criminals run free.

Just recently I realized how this pride is/was truly chauvinism. I wasn't only proud to be American, I actually looked down--or at least these 'others' were not equal. Pride cometh...hubris...we are due for a significant comeuppance, and it will hurt a lot.

'bout done with people of color

see one more i'm gonna holler

can't turn on the idiot box

whether networks netflix or fox

.

there's black people everywhere

but that's not why i really care

white people no longer exist

for quite some time this does persist

.

feels like i'm in the twilight zone

the last white person all alone

peek outside my curtain

because i'm no longer certain

.

are there any whites left on earth

on teevee there's an extreme dearth

the ratio's been inverted

reality been perverted

.

its claimed we can't judge a race

exactly what is taking place

assuming that all whites are bad

makes the wokesters feel realy glad

.

i've got to think you're not too bright

if blame your problems on the white

source of our problems that we bitch

lay at the doorsteps of the rich

.

whatever skin color that you've seen

the rich are always colored green

elites are the right folks to blame

their transparent greed is the shame

.
