For those harping on repub mismanagement. Don't get us started on Detroit and Baltimore.

Scofflaws of New York, rejoice � the City Council has cleared the way for you to litter, loiter and pee in the street to your heart's content.

New legislation dubbed the "Criminal Justice Reform Act" was passed by lawmakers Wednesday, giving miscreants a get-out-of-jail-free card by eliminating the criminal penalties on a raft of quality-of-life crimes.

The disgusting and disturbing acts that the council voted to decriminalize include drinking alcohol out of a paper bag, lurking in parks after hours, urinating in the street and making enough of a racket to violate the noise code.

This from the NY Post

Amen. And you notice the kid had a video game. Maybe he needs help budgeting so he can get out of his mother-in-laws house.

There were several things that seemed like places he could cut wasteful spending. Like the video gaming.

I just take a bit of issue with him saying he has no money while puffing on a vap with his kid right there.

$12 an hour is only $24,960 a year. Assuming there's no overtime. Those that live off that, bless their hearts. I don't see how they do it.

Is he old enough to buy his own setup?

But what about the 4 year old son??

Isn't that ridiculous that the father has him sitting there in the vape lounge with him while he puffs away?

Depressing to say the least. Real sucky IMO. Feel really bad for these folks in the article.

I would not, no.

My kids prefer liquor, though.

Should adults bring four year old kids be into vape lounges?

You're blaming a Clinton? Shocking.

Wilkes County was a totally different place before Bill Clinton signed NAFTA in to law.
