--- Shootings on 73rd Street ! ! !
--- A woman found beaten in Owl's Head Park ! ! !
--- Anything in "Bay Ridge" below Bay Ridge Parkway sure seems like it has become Sunset Park South --- Time to change the name of 69th Street to "South Sunset Park Avenue"
--- It's time to merge the 68th Pct. with the 72nd, because the cops need to get ahead of this & the bunch in the 68th just don't look like they're up to the necessary "Community Policing" to keep Bay Ridge safe
Forget the headlines. Just walk on Third or Fifth Avenues below 75th Street.
You know what, start your tour at State Senator Marty Golden's District Office --- that's right about the spot where the "Old Neighborhood" becomes a real >>> SHIT HOUSE <<<
No wonder Marty Golden wasn't at the OLA Anniversary Mass --- he knows that there's nothing left to celebrate there. BTW, wasn't that joint supposed to be shut down by now ?
I thought Bay Ridge started around 75th Street these days.
ReplyDeleteResidents have been moving the neighborhood's northern border farther and farther south since the 1960s.
Bay Ridge used to start around 55th Street.
Yes many parts of Bay Ridge are starting to look like slums. Eventually all of Bay Ridge will look like Sunset Park, this really accelerated after 2011 when Rodriguez left the 68th Precinct, the new Captain who replaced him stopped focusing on drug arrests and traffic enforcement and Bay Ridge became a safe haven for these creeps, forget about getting rid of them now.
ReplyDeleteAll under Marty Golden and his cronies noses..this is why we need new leadership--- Bob Capano for City Council
ReplyDeleteWhats going on with rise in violent crime in Bay Ridge is happening everywhere. Parts of Queens and Staten Island. No sign of it getting any better.
ReplyDeleteHere you go again !!
ReplyDeleteIts the whole "'the world is going to hell in a hand basket" story.
I heard after the blackout of '77
I heard it after I blacked out in '87
I think not.
Owls head park is the shining city on a hill
The difference between now & '77 is that Bay Ridge wasn't already a dump in '77 like it is now.
ReplyDeleteAnd wake up and smell the coffee, Owls Head Park never was as nice as it was when it was called Bliss Park. But none of the Bay Ridge parks are shiny anymore. They aren't quite as bad as the late 70s, but they're all in seedy shape and have been getting worse and worse for a very long time.
They are shady because a lot of shady people have moved in to Bay Ridge committing various crimes that were ignored by police for several years.
ReplyDeleteThe whole NYPD needs to be reorganized with much less brass and many more street cops. 68th Precinct is a joke and needs to be wiped out just like the 64th (86th & 5th)was. It also was a big joke back in the day and gladly wiped out in the late 60s.
ReplyDeleteWhen Hillary takes office all of the problems for everyday Americans will be solved.
ReplyDelete68th does a good job now, for the last couple of years they've been playing catch up after they had a guy in charge whose police strategy was hear no evil see no evil.
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "BUT HOW CAN SHE ??? -- PODESTA’S E-MAILS SHOW THAT HILLARY CLINTON HATES ‘EVERYDAY AMERICANS’ !!!” EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 10:39 AM"
YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T READ >>> ALL <<< THE COMMENTS APPEARING ON THIS SITE: OR ELSE, YOU WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT HILLARY CLINTON HATES "EVERYDAY AMERICANS" SO MUCH THAT SHE DOESN’T EVEN WANT TO TALK OR SPEECHIFY ABOUT THEM
One of my favorite Baker Street Irregulars (and an occasionally annoying gadfly) posted an anonymous comment a few days ago; and here it is [in part]: “… Donald Trump described [Hillary Clinton] as so full of hate that she called more than half his supporters deplorables and unredeemable. That's because most of all Hillary hates the everyday Americans who won't vote for her…. [that day’s news was] that she hates everyday Americans so much that she even took the term "Everyday Americans" out of one of her earliest speeches in Keene, New Hampshire, before the NH Primary....” (See Comment, “Anonymous said…October 11, 2016 at 12:35 PM on comments thread to my 10/8/16 post, “The Mainstream Media focuses on the shiny thing … but the MSM COMPLETELY IGNORES the Russian strategic move of nuclear-capable missiles onto NATO’s doorstep”.
The commenter above, “Anonymous said… at 10:39 AM,” doesn’t need to feel too bad, though. Even I didn’t get that Podesta E-mail item on the first bounce either (I later found out that it was a WikiLeaks hacked Podesta E-mail that was the source of the gadfly BSI's earlier comment). That’s why we all need some gadflies around; and it's especially why I need my BSIs --- it's to help keep us >>>ALL<<< on our toes.....
COMMENTARY: THE "WHAT DO QUAGLIONE & MCCABE HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE CURRENT STATE OF 'BAY RIDGE' ???" EDITION
ReplyDelete>>> JOHN QUAGLIONE <<< AND >>> LIAM MCCABE <<< FANCY THEMSELVES AS SOME SORT OF COMMUNITY LEADERS IN & FOR "BAY RIDGE" --- WHAT DO THEY HAVE TO SAY ABOUT MY CLEARLY EXPRESSED OPINION THAT THE LOWER END (ROUGHLY STARTING AT MARTY GOLDEN'S DISTRICT OFFICE AND POINTS NORTH) HAS BECOME A "...REAL 'SHIT HOUSE'..."
John Quaglione & Liam Ambrose McCabe have been strangely reticent on many things lately. This is especially true about their absence of any meaningful discussion of myriad indicia that a large chunk of the place that they say they live-in and care-about deeply has fallen into a complete decline.
The recent deafening silence and palpable shyness of both Quaglione and McCabe to address anything real about their home neighborhood stands in stark contrast to Bob Capano's multi-media efforts to bring a real spotlight onto many of the many obvious problems.
OR --- TO PUT IT ANOTHER WAY --- HAS ONE OF LIAM & CHRISTINE'S STRAY CATS GOT YOUR TONGUE ? ? ?
McCabe represents Congressman Donovan, who will crush his opponent who I never heard of in the election. McCabe has a real job delivering constituent services.
ReplyDeleteMcCabe is busy judging dog costume contests while bay ridge is falling apart.
ReplyDeleteDoes a real job delivering constituent services for Donovan mean always calling Vinny Gentile's office all the time to ask for favors, because that's what McCabe and Quaglione do for lots of things.
ReplyDeleteDoes gentile help them?
ReplyDeleteSometimes
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "SO REALLY, IT'S BEEN VINNY..." EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: SEVERAL OF THE "ANONYMOUS SAID..." FOLKS ABOVE
SO BASICALLY, WHEN SOMEBODY SUGGESTS THAT "MCCABE HAS A REAL JOB DELIVERING CONSTITUENT SERVICES" --- WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN IS THIS >>> MCCABE SOMETIMES DELIVERS CONSTITUENT SERVICES BY GETTING ON THE PHONE TO SEE IF SOMEBODY ELSE CAN DO IT
In better days, this was all explained to me by a well-known >>> Chief of Staff <<< of one of our local elected officials..... And that person said to me that about 90% of what constituents want taken care of are by NYC agencies that are more influenced by a call from the Office of the NYC Councilman.
Another well known Chief of Staff told me that John Quaglione often called Vinny Gentile's office --- and on most days multiple times --- to get constituent services for people calling for Marty Golden's help.
UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "STILL MORE ON JOHN QUAGLIONE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteAS "LAW & ORDER" MIGHT SAY, "RIPPED FROM THE HEADLINES...."
THIS TIME IT'S THE "BROOKLYN INDEPENDENT... FOUNTAINHEAD" SAYING: "RIPPED FROM JQ'S OWN FACEBOOK PAGE..."
Is John Quaglione getting ready to switch and become a Democrat ???
I took a look a his Facebook page today and, boy oh boy !!!
Is he ever the new face of the >>> pro-abortions <<< March of Dimes here in Brooklyn --- or what !!!
Next up: it's JQ shilling for another phony front group pushed by Quaglione's boss, Marty Golden --- "Brooklyn's Got Talent" with it's close association (some kind of "sponsorship" deal] with the nickel & dime crony capital operation --- "Empire State Development, LLC" (Tell us this JQ, how long will it be before your boss goes 100% whole-hog Clintons and starts his own "Marty Golden Foundation" ???)
Maybe, Johnny Q's "la piece de resistance" was his photo-op homage to the Captain of the 68th Precinct, Joseph Haywood --- raising awareness for "breast cancer"... --- How about, raising awareness about how the rising crime rates in Bay Ridge are indicative of a sub-par job by the NYPD in Quaglione's and his boss' bailiwick....
OH ! OH ! OH ! Then, there's JQ's being at the ribbon cutting >>> IN SUNSET PARK <<< (we all know, the McCabe folks won't like that one bit.....).
