Communist Foreign Jihadi Theater Kid Zohran Mamdani Loves the Homeless So He Stopped All Police Sweeps of Homeless Encampments During Severe Weather.
Now He's Killed 17 Homeless People With His "Caring"

Homeless people want to be homeless. That's the fact. Cities build shelters for them but they don't want to go to the shelters.

During weather emergencies, cops used to force the homeless to go to the shelters. So they wouldn't die.

The communist jihadi foreign theater kid and Gaytard Zohran Mamdani really really loves the homeless, so he forbids the police from rousing them and bringing them to shelters when the overnight temperatures plunge down to ten degrees (less than zero with windchill).

His new policy was, as Actual Justice Warrior put it, to "try to convince them extra-super-hard" to go to the shelters voluntarily.

They didn't agree to go voluntarily. Because they're mentally ill and incapable of caring for themselves and legally incapable of making decisions about their own health and safety.

Now, 17 homeless people that he really really loves are dead. He's killing them with kindness, you see.

Mayor Mamdani said Friday he still will only force homeless New Yorkers off the streets "as a last resort" -- even as his office revealed 13 people have now died outdoors, with even colder temps coming this weekend.

The Democratic socialist continued to insist that city workers will compel homeless people to get indoors only if they pose a danger to themselves or others. He dug in his heels as the real-feel temperature was forecast to dip as low as -1 degree Saturday into Sunday.

Pressed on how city workers will determine if someone is a danger to themselves, Mamdani said numerous factors need to be taken into account before getting someone to shelter, including whether they have enough clothing on.

"There are a number of specific criteria that is used in determining whether one is a danger to themselves or to others," Mamdani told reporters at an unrelated event in Long Island City.

"I think we can find some of this criteria also in how an individual is clothed, whether they are deemed to actually be warm in those settings, as well as their behavior," Hizzoner said.

"And for the New Yorkers who are deemed to be a threat to themselves or to others, there is a process of involuntary confinement which is a last resort," he continued. "However, it has been utilized a number of times whenever city workers have come to that conclusion."

Hours later, his office announced that the outdoor death toll had tragically risen by three since last Saturday, when the Big Apple began getting walloped by unrelenting below-freezing conditions and Winter Storm Fern.

A City Hall spokesperson said in a statement the number of deaths has increased to 13 -- up from the 10 officials reported earlier this week, spanning from Saturday to Tuesday. The mayor's office didn't provide any additional details about the three newly-tallied deaths, and it wasn't known when they had taken place.

The death toll of homeless people frozen to death in the streets has since risen to 17. And NYC is bracing for another arctic blast of cold air this weekend.

Can we get up to 20? Maybe 25?

His new pick for city lawyer actually praised Mamdani for his Socially-Conscious Murders.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani's pick for top Big Apple lawyer on Wednesday praised the administration's "extraordinarily high-level" handling of the current deadly cold snap -- even as the death toll climbed to 17 people.

Testifying before the City Council's Rules Committee for his approval to become the city's corporation counsel, Steve Banks was pressed by Speaker Julie Menin on how he would advise the fashionably-focused mayor during future extreme weather events.

"What I have seen is exactly what should be happening, which is adhering to the state law to evaluate people, bring them inside when the state law permits people to be brought inside, continually to engage people," said Banks, who served as the former Department of Social Services commissioner under Mayor Bill de Blasio.

He added that the city is "redoubling efforts, 24/7, to engage people and bring them inside" with temperatures set to dip below freezing for the umpteenth day this winter.

Banks, however, rejected a broad removal policy when Menin asked if the city could relocate people "in the interest of health and safety" during extreme cold, particularly those with serious mental illness.

"I think the state law doesn't permit that kind of blanket approach. It requires an individualized evaluation, and that is exactly what I see being implemented right now," Banks said.

"That requires nursing evaluations, that requires clinical evaluations. And that's what I see is going on right now at, quite frankly, an extraordinarily high level."

Actual Justice Warrior calls Mamdani's policy "homicidal empathy."

17 Of course, if some right-winger had control, they might have taken away these homeless people's agency and had them committed for mental health treatment.

Maybe even send them to (GASP!) an asylum.

26 Homeless people want to be homeless. That's the fact. Cities build shelters for them but they don't want to go to the shelters.

I worked downtown with a lot of homeless in a small city and here's my experience: most homeless don't want a home. Some do but simply cannot handle it or keep a home. Some few do and get out of being homeless within a few months because of all the resources and aid available to someone sane and trying to help their situation.

Nearly every single homeless person I encountered and still do, are one or a combination of insane, addicts, drunks, or pathologically loners. Most are several of these.

Do we have any evidence this is actually true?

Does he support the 'ette consensus that Bad Bunny should wear an A-line dress for his Super Bowl performance?

Can he name even three of the 'ettes' preferred fashion colors?

Personally, I suspect this is disinformation at best, and gaslighting at the worst.

That's good. I feel like it doesn't capture the left though.

It's not that they WANT people to die. (Well, at least not the objects of their "empathy.") It's that they don't really care.

It's false empathy. Sociopathic empathy? Narcissistic Empathy? Selfish Empathy? Performative Empathy?

I'm not great at coining terms, but the left doesn't actually care about the people they "help". They care that they look like good people. They care that they stay convinced in their own mind that everything they do is good and just.

In our old pop culture, hobos were often regarded as colorful and nonthreatening characters. Today, nobody wants to be around homeless. Except librarians; homeless welcomed there.

Some of them are actually schizophrenics. Those I feel for. They should be housed in institutions that look out for their welfare, since they are incapable of doing so themselves.

For a short period of time, the Bolsheviks' preferred means of mass execution was to fill empty barges filled with political prisoners, tow the barges into the White Sea, and sink them.

But barges were expensive, so it was determined to be much more practical to assign the prisoners to forced labor on starvation rations.

195 In the 60's and 70's in Anchorage, the public drunks would be rounded up once a week and hauled to the prison farm, where they would spend a couple of weeks working the farm, sleeping in cots and eating decent food, and most of all, drying out. They didn't litter the streets with their feces or harass people on the street.

Now, they are everywhere, crapping in public, sleeping in doorways, spreading HIV and other lovely viral infections, and wondering around in the middle of streets blocking traffic. Some go to the public library and have sex on the lovely furniture there. Many more panhandle relentlessly. And about six members of the Anchorage Assembly get rich off funds to eliminate homelessness.

I don't live in Anchorage any more. Guess why.

Just arrest and detain (poorhouses) Make it a week or two to keep them off the street and off drugs. Many will hate it so much they will avoid being homeless where they can be caught. Also no benefits for anyone unless they have verified permanent abode. This used to be the way.

230 Remember, these conditions exist because
(a) gov profits from voters
(b) gov profits from taxbase of federal benefits recipients
(c) all real industry already left, so no downside to making city unlivable to productive class workers.
(d) mixed bag for retail,etc. since more people, but lower class
(f) Great value for social service workers, gov. workers, legal workers, etc. with so many clients.

The key right there is the benefits they receive -- remove the benefits and the un-productive classes dry up and blow away. Cities will be desolate, but then they can start rebuilding.

233 In the old Dashiell Hammett "Continental Op" stories from the 1920s, various down-and-outer characters were always being picked up by the police and jailed for "Vag" -- 1920s slang for "Vagrancy."

What always bothered me is that I never knew how "Vag" was supposed to be pronounced -- and I still don't:

-- Pronounced just as it looks, "vag," to rhyme with "bag" or "rag"?

-- Pronounced as a shortened version of "Vagrancy," i.e. like "Vague," rhyming with "Haig"?

-- Pronounced like it would be in 2026, with a soft "g," like the first syllable of "vagina," i..e "vaj"?

Or...? What do you think?

272 When Churches do it, they tend to have security and instant contact to the cops if it gets out of hand. They use open gym areas, not Church pews, with access to one set of bathrooms.

It is single gender (all male b/c that tends to be on the street and unwilling to go into gov areas - women are taking elsewhere). And if they get kicked out, cops pick them up for a night in the jail.

All denominations pitch in and take a week and many cross denominations help their local Church. It takes a village and is done every year. So far, while as cold and as populated as any metro, no one has died of the cold this year. Heart attacks shoveling snow - yes.

It think it's more like the hard solid core of capitalism.

You have to feed yourself. You have to shelter yourself. You don't? Then you have to rely on charity. And if you make yourself so unimaginably odious to anyone who might help you that they are afraid of even getting near you, let alone trying to help you?

You fucking die. End of story. That's the moral hazard at the center of life.

It's a source of great hilarity that this little commie pipsqueak is the one putting it on full display as if this were a bad thing and we should all think "ohhh noooo evils of capitalism". Screw that. This is the golden understructure of capitalism. This is the Kapitalist Krampus to Marx's Santa Claus. No one is obligated to keep you alive, asshole. No one is obligated to feed or house you. Get your shit together. Or don't. I don't care.

Okay, here's the deal. My parents did that to us before they died. "We don't care what happens to us." That's great, but they left us with two bodies to deal with. To my knowledge, my sister had them cremated, but where their ashes ended up, I don't know.

There is no place to visit them, no place to pray over, no memorial of any kind.

They got what they wanted, but ignored what others might have preferred. Selfish to the end. Perfectly in character for them, but leaves a bad taste.

Strangely, the proposal was approved. I collected an E. coli culture from a local university, requested agar media and amino acids and an UV lamp. The stuff dribbled in over the next couple of months, but not in time for the actual experiment (graduation). The funny part was that year's AP test included an essay question on that exact subject.

299 I have gone swimming for thousands of miles in the surf here in ENC. Once I went swimming in Hurricane swells 14-16 feet. A dozen surfers had boards broken in half that day. I tried to get out past the break 5 times, made it out two. It was great fun swimming up and down in the swells, looking down at the beach. Trouble is, you have to get out eventually. One wave would toss and spin you, sending you to the bottom, I'd see daylight, swim up, and the next one would pound you back down. One one of these agitator downings, I thought how easy it would be to give up. Seemed a very peaceful way to go. My wife and two kids on shore wouldn't have liked it though.

We had a soldier die in a diving accident in the Red Sea when I was in Egypt. I was sitting with a couple of captains monitoring radios while we discussed death. Captain Bickford mentioned that if he ever perished, we should just pack him in a box and mail him home.

Being a smartass, and an asshole, I responded "that's fine, as long as you don't end up in the dead letter office".

Pause of about 10 seconds and then we all roared with laughter and almost suffocated. Those two NEVER looked at me the same again...

And here I think is where a massive welfare state makes society less charitable, not more. The productive are already being taxed through the nose and up the ass to fund the housing, healthcare, and food of an entire dependent class. Why should they pay more to do what is already supposed to be happening? Government intervention crowds out charitable endeavors and influences people's willingness to give to charity. Plus the phenomenal amount of corruption and graft when government inserts itself in private charitable functions.

346 Tommaso Cioni doesn't sound Spanish. Odd name to be in AZ. He's Nancy Guthrie's son-in-law. He's the last known person to see Nancy. I mean why would anyone want to kidnap an old lady, even if her daughter is on TV. Has Savannah been going after the cartels?

350 grew up in a small town. We only had one town drunk. Anytime it got to cold he would just throw a brick thru a window at a store downtown. Warmer in jail.

Our neighbor was the county jailer for a while. He got to where he would just admit the drunk to protect the businesses windows.

352 You used to have to be kind of clever to live rough. You couldn't be a stupid bum, that just wasn't an option. Drug addled monsters would just die because someone would kill them and no one would give a damn. Bums had to be operators, they had to learn tricks and knowledge to survive. So they had to be smart enough to know not to fuck with normies beyond the occasional theft or kidnapping. They ain't going to screw with anyone unless there's a buck to be made.

Now, if you're of that mindset, you can get a job damn near anywhere anyway, so why live on the streets? It's only the really mentally defective who live like vagrants, and they survive without any knowledge or skills in living rough because you're not allowed to beat the fuck out of them and kick them out of town anymore.

Fucking idiots.

War isn't a god damn video game. You don't just click the "Start War" button when you feel like playing.

If we're on offense, do they really expect the President to time the opening assault based on some retards' feelings and not... fucking literally anything else? Weather? Asset Positioning? Enemy positioning? Intelligence?

I mean, if you do just want another Forever War boondoggle where no one actually expects a victory with minimal casualties, sure, go ahead, bombs away. Fuck it.

The Poles routed the Soviets at the very gates of Warsaw in 1920. Stalin was humiliated, and that cockroach didn't suffer humiliation very well. So, Katyn. So, the Warsaw Rebellion. So, the executions following Soviet occupation during 1944-45. Stalin also demanded that the borders of Poland be shifted westward. Poland lost 28,471 sq. miles of territory when the dust settled.
