Yesterday afternoon Concilwoman Tish James led about a dozen activists on a march over the Brooklyn Bridge to protest the city’s plan to move a homeless intake shelter from Manhattan to Crown Heights, according to the Daily News. The march ended at City Hall, where State Senator Eric Adams and Councilman Lew Fidler spoke out against the plan. “The entire city should share the burden of the…less fortunate,” said Adams, who says he’s going to bring the fight against the center’s move to Albany.

  1. “3:22- right. I bet you do. trust me, I don’t play armchair quarterback in my life. I’m pretty sure you do- but I am under no obligation to tell trolls what I plan or work on except to say that I am involved in the issue which is far more than I can say for you.”

    Yep, long on complaints, short on specifics. Blah, blah, blah. Yawn.

  2. Thank you gentlemen! And no, “guest” that doesn’t include you.

    3:22- right. I bet you do. trust me, I don’t play armchair quarterback in my life. I’m pretty sure you do- but I am under no obligation to tell trolls what I plan or work on except to say that I am involved in the issue which is far more than I can say for you.

    3:10- Of course your credibility is so well established that everyone is simply rushing to find the pornographic links I so obviously post all over the site.(if anyone finds them please let me know- What,the stupid bxgrl would like them).

  3. “Let’s hear what you’re doing.”

    I asked first. And weren’t you the one who asked to hear less from me? NOW you want to hear what I’ve been doing? Seems like you’re a very confused person.

  4. “You’re lame. Get it? Probably not.”

    Nope, you’re lame, and I think more than a few people would agree with me on that. In fact, you are notorious on this blog, from what I understand, for your lameness. That said, I am NOT 3:10, I own a wonderful Victorian rowhouse in Crown Heights, and I believe that what ever has been done on behalf of defeating Mayor Bloomberg’s plan is worth it. I just don’t like poeple like Bxgrl’s complaints. It’s pretty easy to criticize, but much more difficult to actually do something. Let’s hear what Bxgrl is doing.
