I think you found the one guest who’s a bigger douche than you.
Why doesn’t the comptroller just stick to his job and try to recover the millions he lost in a failed bank and woke causes???
Too bad @bradlander didn’t do his job to hold our service providers accountable. NYers were cheering because we’re tired of being terrorized by EDPs. We pay the highest taxes in the country and in exchange for that we expect our govt to provide the needed care for these people.

for both sides, why not wait for investigation to complete to figure out if the use of force was warranted. Both sides seem to jumping the gun with biased assumptions. The wake up call should be to treat incidents with professionalism and not like during wild west.
Maybe @bradlander can look into the mental health Non-Profits his wife works for to see where she may have spent the $1B+ in Thrive and numerous other $Bs in homeless shelters.

We can be a city in which mentally impaired people get the help they need and are not screaming in the subway.

If you did your job NYers wouldn’t have to defend themselves . 🖕
Brad Lander?? @BilldeBlasio gave his unqualified wife $1B in taxpayer money to run a mental health initiative. She could not account for $850M For whatever reason Lander refused to investigate. Millions in taxpayer $ go to unregulated non-profits that he refuses to audit. Why?
