Bud, Bud... you have to understand.

If you attack a conservative, no problem.

But if you are a bodega clerk being attacked by a criminal, you get charged with murder and thrown in jail.
At least until the video of the encounter makes such a fool of the NYC DA that he finally has to drop the charges. 🙄

@Thinkerbell Sad but true.

I want to see a new TV series called the 3rd Tier of Justice.
Something like a blend of Nobody, John Wick, and Death Wish.
Every week the good guy(s) take out another elite prick in dramatic fashion.

@Thinkerbell This wasn't even in the city. This was in the upstate husk of a town Rochester

@Thinkerbell It gets even stupider, Alison Esposito, Zeldin's running mate WAS WOUNDED in the attack. Yet this dirtbag was still only charged with attempted assault.

Inside every Pics, Corvie, etc there is a lunatic like this oozing to spring

@Budwick The thing is, that could very well become reality. People are fed up with what is taking place these days and are ready for anything.
