    This gets better and better. NYC leftists will soon be praying for Trump to save them from themselves and their stupid decisions. Love it!

  • Stop using AI and critically think for yourself and make your own opinions instead of using that brainwashing nonsense.

  • But the maga fascists aren't interested as long as they can further polarize Amerifcans.

Good to hear there still is hope for the US. Social services can do much good in certain situations.

  • Popular Post

FROM AI

Key details of the proposed legislation:

 
  • Mandatory staffing: A bill has been introduced that would require the NYC Department of Health to staff each precinct with a licensed social worker.
  • Focus on mental health calls: The main goal is to provide better support during mental health crises, where current police responses are sometimes seen as insufficient.
  • Potential roles: Social workers could respond to calls alongside officers or primarily intervene with individuals who have been brought to the precinct.
  • Broader vision: The initiative is part of a broader effort to use social workers to address the social service-related calls that make up a significant portion of police work.

I'm going to let New Yorkers worry about Zohran Mamdani.  They elected him, let them deal with the fallout.  Best of luck to the new brand of socialism that progressive Democrats want.  Now they have it in New York and Seattle. Good for them.  Defund the police.  Deputize anyone that the Mayor wants.  Step back and watch the fun.  :thumbsup:

This is a troll topic.

It's obviously only for certain kinds of situations where social workers can usually do a better job.

DUH!

What brainwashing nonsense are you referring to? I could understand your indignation if it was addressed at the stupid cartoon that was offered as some kind of evidence. But apparently that's the kind of thing you have no problem with. You don't see why a social worker might be useful in domestic situations that police aren't trained to handle?

The problem is, the progressives will never admit their ideas failed.

A very misleading topic headline. The following is a brief extract from a news paywall site...

 

 his promises to toughen discipline and his plan to send mental health teams, rather than officers, to certain emergencies.

Im sure you'd be saying that if a methed-up knife weilding maniac pervert was in your childs room at 1am with malice on his mind. Do liberals ever think for themselves rather than parotting the party narrative? Clearly not

Please define it. 

The guy is NUTZO if he wants the City Government to get into the grocery business and compete against privately owned businesses.

 

Beware...THE INDIANS are coming to town.

This is BAD NEWS.....

 

On October 23, 2024, Mamdani announced his candidacy for mayor of New York City.[83] His platform included support for free city buses and a rent freeze in rent-stabilized housing.[84][85][86] Mamdani also wants the city government to operate five grocery stores—one in each borough—to drive down grocery prices.[87] His platform included support for universal child care and the construction of 200,000 new affordable housing units.[88] He also supports public safety reform and a $30 minimum wage by 2030.[89] His platform called for tax increases on corporations and those earning above $1 million annually.[90]

 

Why not just return to India, and increase the PER-CAPITA number of toilets?

Surely, that would have even greater impact on world-poverty.

 

This is why I don't like tourists coming to a foreign land, Like Thailand, and telling the locals what to do.

 

 

I'm sure there are situations where cops are sent where social workers would have been more effective and vice versa.

No policy designed by humans can possibly be perfect and without risk.

But using social workers sometimes in specifically defined types of situations is obviously very sensible and will obviously do more good than harm.

Why do you presume a social worker would be called to an emergency involving a methed-up knife wielding maniac pervert?

Look this guy has a democratic socialist label so to knee jerk people there is no policy he can propose that they will be able to support. That is stupid. Some of his ideas are sensible and possibly doable and others not. Be fair.

For example Trump who I consider to be leading a fascist movement and even though I strongly oppose fascism recently proposed lowering the costs on anti obesity drugs. That appears to be both possible to do and a fantastically beneficial policy idea. Heck, they should be free.

We need to turn back the clock in NYC to the late 60s and 70s, when we had strip-joints on Times Square, and plenty of hookers walking the streets.

Back in the day, NYC had REAL CHARACTER and charm.

 

Now, after many decades, the City has been steam cleaned, and there is none of that muck that made NYC great.

 

NYC, over the years, has turned into a Disney Caricature of what it was, and should still be.

 

Where is the seamy side of NYC, the side we often saw in plain view, and loved.

 

Correct:  The Americans deserve ZOHRAN, and many more Indians.

 

The thing about Indians is that they just won't melt in the pot.

Most immigrants melt in the American melting pot, and assimilate to become real Americans.

 

But, Indian culture is different.

You just cannot take Indian culture out of the Indian.

 

Sure, there are plenty of good things about Indian culture, such as lamb vindaloo.

 

But, the great cuisine is NOT worth having America over-run with 1.4 BILLION Indians fleeing the upcoming Global Warming disaster already hitting that SUB-CONTINENT.

 

We need to build a MUCH HIGHER wall to keep them out....

Or, we will pay a HUGE PRICE, and suffer one social disaster after the next.

 

 Mark my words, Folks.

I know of that which I speak, in this case.

 

I am not naive, in the least.

Maybe the social workers can hop on the free buses to get to the scene of the crime. On the way back to the office they could if they wish pop into one of the city run supermarkets.

Yeah, and you could start think that the social workers might be more competent than the police, as they seem to shoot first and ask later in US.

He's not capable to think for himself....just like most liberals, they have to hear the talking points on the left-controlled MSM.
