Somebody needs to tell Brian Fox and the rest of these chuckleheads that September 10th is not the anniversary of anything particularly significant
Meanwhile the official >>> BAY RIDGE COMMUNITY VIGIL <<< WILL HONOR THE ANNIVERSARY OF 9/11 at the American Veterans Memorial Pier in Bay Ridge at 69th Street; and it will be held on 9/11
[From a release] BROOKLYN, NY | September 2, 2021 -- To commemorate the upcoming 20th anniversary of September 11th, NIA Community Services Network are holding the longstanding a community vigil at American Veterans Memorial Pier in Bay Ridge.
The event, which has been held annually at that location, is open to all and will take place on Sunday, 9/11 at 7pm. Investors Bank and NYC Ferry are corporate sponsors. The 9/11 Vigil is an important annual tradition to NIA and the people in Bay Ridge and nearby communities.
In a joint statement, NIA President Michael A. Bové and CEO Mary Anne Cino said that --- “By uniting as a community, we have the ability to bring messages of hope, healing, and reflection to all.”
According to NIA President Michael A. Bové and CEO Mary Anne Cino' remarks --- so many from Bay Ridge and the surrounding communities have been personally affected by this tragedy, which happened over twenty years ago. On this meaningful anniversary and at this meaningful location, we will honor our heroes, all those we lost, and remember the resilience of all New Yorkers....
The vigil at the American Veterans Memorial Pier will include performances from Xaverian High School, Fort Hamilton High School, Boy Scout Troops 13, and the Holy Cross Girl Scout Troop. Attendees will be given candles and participate in a moment of silence for victims as their names are shown on screens. Weather permitting,the Tribute in Light public art installation, which illuminates the New York City skyline on 9/11 with twin beams of light projected from Ground Zero, will be visible from the pier.
What the heck is wrong with these flakes? There's nothing meaningful about 9/10 in McKinley Park. Unless they think the rest of the community has cooties.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet that Brian Fox doesn't even know the Republicans and Conservatives once went to the 69th Street Pier 9/11 events.
ReplyDeleteWhy would I attend a 9-11 memorial sponsored by a political club? Can't this be the one day we put politics aside? I guess if the Republicans won elections they wouldn't need to have their own event because the local elected officials would be Republican. I don't recall the Bay Ridge Democrats doing a rival 9-11 event when Marty was in power. What a bunch of morons!
ReplyDeleteMY GOD - tonight was the Brian Fox - Curtis Sliwa "SAVE BROOKLYN FUNDRAISER"
ReplyDeleteThere were about 8 people there in total and that includes the bartenders
Vito LaBella took strong opposition to class size bill and urged Gov Hochul to veto it.
ReplyDeletei dunno about y'all but personally when i think "September 11 memorial" there are 2 main thoughts which immediately come to the mind:
ReplyDelete1- September 10
2- Autographed Ron Darling baseball cards from E+J Sports Memorabilia Emporium & Boutique
Isn’t it time for Fox and his boy Liam to hang up politics?
ReplyDeleteVito Labella will be opening his campaign headquarters on Saturday. Its at the Hampton Bays Yacht Club near Montauk.
ReplyDeleteput the politics aside. any 9/11 event should be non partisan and not " proudly sponsored " by a political club on either side of the aisle

State Senator Marty Golden for coming by, showing support, and speaking on the issues that matter in this community. Thank you to #TeamFox for helping out and setting up this great fundraiser. Lastly, thank you to my supporters for coming and supporting our campaign. On November 8th this beloved community is going to be giving back to you!..."
HERE'S WHAT THE PHOTOS POSTED ON FACEBOOK BY BRIAN FOX HAD TO SAY ABOUT HIS MOST RECENT FUND RAISER:
Fox included five pictures of the event that showed a total of seven attendees (and that included the aforementioned Marty Golden --- and multiple shots of Brian Fox himself --- our favorite was one with a nice big plate of food and a side of a pile of campaign flyers, all for him to eat).
Fox has taken control. And the Save Brooklyn Fundraiser had dozens of attendees.
ReplyDeleteLook at all those 'dozens'!
ReplyDeleteIs a half-dozen 'dozens'?
Then I have cousins by the dozens.
