Shameful day & night for our beloved city. Mothers & children evicted from parks in Williamsburg during daylight hours while Manhattan burns after dark. Yes Mr. Mayor a tale of two cities is the sad reality. pic.twitter.com/8IRfJrzsRf— Chaskel Bennett (@ChaskelBennett) June 2, 2020
UNBELIEVABLE:
DeBlasio has proven himself utterly feckless in responding to the riots that have wreaked havoc on the city. He has yet to call the National Guard to help police maintain order.
On Tuesday, Sergeants Benevolence Association President Ed Mullins sent a letter to New York police officers, condemning de Blasio’s refusal to call the National Guard. “I know we are losing the city,” Mullins wrote.
“We have no leadership, no direction, and no plan. I know you are being held back and used as pawns. Our officers and supervisors are getting hurt every night DOING THEIR JOBS without any support from our PC or mayor.”
He painted a terrifying picture of the riots:
“We run from disturbance to disturbance, fire to fire, looting to looting, exposing our own lives and limbs to maiming and permanent injury, only to be told that we have failed to protect the City. We arrest those that we can, move those who are willing, and try to prevent further chaos everywhere. It is not a sustainable endeavor. We are, simply put, outnumbered.”
Yet on Tuesday, these same outnumbered police officers spent their precious time breaking up a peaceful gathering of Jewish mothers and children at a playground.
Bennet, the same Jewish community leader who condemned de Blasio’s double standard, shared a video showing police evicting mothers and children from parks in Williamsburg “during daylight hours while Manhattan burns after dark.” He called it “a tale of two cities.”
Jewish marketing professional Yossi Gestetner provided more context for PJ Media: “Hasidic Jews in Williamsburg Brooklyn a mile away from where thousands were protesting at the same moment without distancing.”
Gestetner also shared a video which he claimed showed New York cops berating a group of Hasidic Jews on the sidewalk while rioters destroyed the city.
🚨 As THOUSANDS of protesters are in Manhattan and in Brooklyn tonight in violation of the curfew, @NYPDnews has time to tell Hasidim soemthing about the curfew. @NYCPBA @NYCPBA_GC @SBANYPD What’s the point of this? If 5K Hasidim were out in a protest, you will leave them alone? pic.twitter.com/T1z9yIfVYH— Yossi Gestetner (@YossiGestetner) June 3, 2020

Seems that through Covid and the riots, the government has been more focused on making things hard for people who pose no real threat. That is not what government should be doing.
