For Christ’s sake, just leave our new Mayor alone so he can do his job for New York!
@SLW20 you’re invoking Christ? How blasphemous. He’s not going to cover for a demon worshiper.
UPDATE: The device in Carl Schurz Park has been cleared and determined to be non-threatening. This was an instance of everyday New Yorkers following a clear message: If you see something, say something. Call 888-NYC-SAFE.
The terrorists are not coming The terrorists are already here!
