Thanks Republicans.
Are Democrats.
Care to explain that???
Thugs are thugs no matter who they vote for (you know so few Democrats vote).
How do you the shooters are Democrats? Explain that.
and yet liberal constituents run around with illegal guns doing hood things to impress their friends.
Shouldn’t they have the right to bear arms? It’s a shame the right doesn’t believe in the 2nd amendment.
I heard that an armed society is a polite society.
Close Steinway street to cars like they did with almost every other avenue in Astoria so people have more space to run.
Just another day in Astoria.
That’s just asking for trouble.
Starbucks opened (pre-pandemic) at 4:30 or 5 to cater to customers, including mostly blue-collar workers at that hour. Employees have to get there, and many other early-morning businesses (as well as getting home from late-night businesses). How mad would you be if you couldn’t drive through on your way to work?
