People tend to ignore reality when it disagrees with their political (or other) beliefs. At some point, reality will intrude, unless you are especially stupid, or psychologically impaired. Or just a liar. Tiffany Cab�n's claims about subway violence anger victim
Defund-the-police socialist City Councilwoman Tiffany Cabán tweeted that “Subway violence is a one-in-a-million event” — outraging the woman who may lose the sight in her right eye after being viciously attacked days earlier in the transit system.
Cabán made her pronouncement Monday as video circulated of the sickening assault on straphanger Elizabeth Gomes in Queens, the progressive pol’s own borough.
You can find video of the assault at the following link. NYC vagrant pummels female straphanger in caught-on-video horror: cops. It is disturbing.
Of course the Defund the Police brigade has to pretend that stuff like this doesn't happen. Or maybe they don't have to pretend; maybe they are psychologically incapable of seeing what is happeing every day in NYC. And in Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New Orleans, etc. To admit what is going on, to preceive what is going on, is to admit they were wrong.
Gomes, a JFK airport security guard, blasted Cabán as wildly out of touch.
“The subway system is dangerous and for her to post something like that — it seems to me that she doesn’t ride the subway or have anyone to ride it. She doesn’t really understand what it is,” Gomes told The Post. “It’s just getting worse and worse.”
I have no doubt that if Tiffany Cabán is up for reelection, or whenever she is up for reelection, she will be elected again. Because this kind of soft-on-crime, hard-on-cops insanity is EXACTLY what the people NYC want. They might be viewed as not being Progressive enough if they didn't support this insanity.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard.
