I had more assholes taking pictures of me in the street yesterday.

I'm just going to call bullshit on a lot of those photos from that idiot's instagram. That isn't at all what things look like.

Also the above quote from the doctor: "I'm an ER doctor on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic here in NYC. 18,000 people have died over the past 9 weeks. All these people had to do was wear a mask, stay apart or stay inside." That is an idiotic statement. The large majority of people dying from this aren't people walking the sidewalks of downtown Manhattan, they are people who HAVE to go out to work and bring you food, work in grocery stores, factories then then go home and live in a small apartment with 8 other people. Furthermore there weren't any "rules" about any of this until thousands were already infected going about their business. Let's keep it real.

I'm being a dumbass for pointing out that a statement made by a doctor to thousands of people was irresponsible? Ok.

Too little, too late. DB should have done this as soon as windows were being smashed & cop cars burned (i.e. Sunday). 11 p.m. curfew did nothing but possibly incite the folks w/ mischief on their minds. Neighborhood looks like a cross between riot aftermath cleanup and hurricane prep. Supposedly gunshots last night @ 9th & University :mad:
