TBF Stuyvesant is a badash place. It's absurdly hard to get into, a full meritocracy, no way for government to put its thumb on the admissions scale for ethnic equality, tons of wildly ambitious immigrant families competing for spots...and then you have to start your academic career among the smartest kids in NYC.
something like 70% Asian now...it used to be probably 70% Jewish but that's how NYC rolls.
It's a major feeder school to all the Ivies of course.
It's one of the only high schools that means something if you went there.
And a miracle that its admissions policy has not been watered down to get more black and hispanic kids in. No real idea why it has survived. But it's a relic of the success of immigration. Mostly poor and middle class first generation Asian kids.
Do the students come to school in a Black Hawk with a door gunner?
Typical uninformed Con. This fool thinks Tribeca is dangerous.
Tribeca is the most expensive neighborhood in Manhattan.

I don't care if Trump contested the election, who cares, right?
But he does, and a lot of innocent people paid the price afterwards.

How many police officers needed to be assaulted in their workplace on January 6th before you would start to care?
Police officers on Jan. 6th----I don't know? Do you care about your SIDE injuring over 2000 police officers over a 4-5 month period? Killing a retired police chief? Where are you posts about that?
Did THAT bother you at all, or is it just January 6th over and over and over. You scream "I'm a hypocrite" without actually saying it. You can't have it both ways, not gonna happen.
Police officers on Jan. 6th----I don't know? Do you care about...
...getting an answer to my question, rather than you conveniently dodging it with your own follow-up queries? Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.
You definitely put the far "right" in your screen name.
I have emphasized before that I am political party agnostic, and have supported the Republicans more often that not. But the GOP placed a reprehensible human being in the White House, and that is one of the primary reasons why most of the people in the United States did not vote for him in November's election.
But please, don't let that stop you and your friends from posting overtly biased satire from social media people like CatTurd.
More to the point, the fact that you gloss over what Trump's supporters did on January 6th says just as much about you as it does about them. Nothing like a nice coup d'é·tat to help warm you up on a brisk day at the capital, huh?

We found another honorable Republican. This guy blew up his legal career rather than carry out the amoral orders of Trump the autocrat, to stop prosecuting Eric Adams. He quit rather than doing dishonorable deeds. Ma’ga sneers at honor.
“Keep in mind Hagan Scotten is a bonafide conservative who clerked for Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Kavanaugh after serving 3 combat tours in Iraq as U.S. Army Special Forces Officer, earning 2 Bronze Stars. We are in the era of fools and cowards, but he isn’t one of them.”

See ya humberto! FeelsGoodMan to have a secure border and have the handcuffs off of ICE to do their jobs. Border patrol and ICE are doing work to keep Americans safe from trash like this. hard work, fired up, hard work......
A migrant gang member who has entered the U.S. illegally 10 times and is wanted for murder in Mexico has been deported, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced on Friday. Humberto Romero Avila, 45, described as a "foreign fugitive" by ICE, first illegally entered the country in 2002 and is wanted in Mexico in connection with the fatal shooting of a 22-year-old man in 2007. As well as breaking immigration laws, Avila has also been convicted of larceny, four DWIs and several other criminal offenses while illegally roaming the streets in the U.S., ICE said.
"For nearly a quarter of a century, this transnational gang member has blatantly disregarded our nation’s immigration and criminal laws, putting the life of every person he’s encountered in danger," said Bret Bradford, the Houston field office director at ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). "On top of that, he’s accused of brutally gunning down an innocent 22-year-old man in Mexico in 2007. In the more than 30 years that I’ve worked in immigration enforcement, I’m not sure I’ve ever come across a more egregious offender or a better example of why immigration enforcement is so critical to maintaining public safety." Bradford said that U.S. streets are safer now that Avila has been ejected from the country. "He will no longer be free to reign terror on the general public and finally face justice for his alleged involvement in that heinous crime that took place 18 years ago," Bradford said

If he's entered the U.S. ten times, what's to keep him from doing it again? Wouldn't it be better to put him in prison for his U.S. crimes, preferably for a very long time, then deport him? Aren't you folks the ones who say you can't depend on the Mexican police and justic system?
BREAKING MEASLES OUTBREAK—All cases are unvaccinated. Texas has reported 48 measles cases, doubling since earlier this week, with 13 hospitalizations. The outbreak started in Gaines County, which has the lowest kindergarten MMR vaccination rate in the region (only 82%). The highly contagious disease is spreading to surrounding counties, and officials expect more cases. Health experts warn that unvaccinated individuals remain at the highest risk for severe illness and complications.

He won the popular vote.
He certainly did, and I really doubt that anyone on this thread didn't know that.
But it is equally true that "most"--i.e. a majority--of Americans did not vote for him in November. Of course that would be a huge majority, if we counted all Americans; but even if we restrict ourselves to those who cast votes, more than 50% of those who voted did not vote for President Trump. His plurality of the popular vote was 49.8%.
...More to the point, the fact that you gloss over what Trump's supporters did on January 6th says just as much about you as it does about me. You believe a couple thousand voters out of about 80,000,000 Trump voters who carried flags in protest (and the even smaller amount of voters who were invited into the Capitol that day) are good Americans and I believe the Cop who gunned down an unarmed girl is a great guy cause he told her to stop, even though Derrick Chauvin told Floyd to stop and he got life in prison for the same thing and I hate that cop. So we are different. You have principles and I do not.
