Caught this guy, alive and shot. That's a good combination, I think. Shot means he's having some suffering (I'm just presuming his guilt here, but we all do that sometimes), and alive means he's a source of information. I travel through the Lincoln Tunnel, Port Authority, and Grand Central most days, and while I feel secure it's because of the heavy presence of police and National Guard patrolling those juicy targets. They do solid work, even if they don't create a special area of tourist riff-raff taking pictures during peak commuting hours like I've hoped they would. I think it will continue to be softer targets (Elizabeth train station is not as protected as Grand Central, same for Chelsea dumpsters) that will get hit, and with smaller devices. Guns, small bombs, knives, vehicles, and clowns luring people into the forest.

Stay safe, everyone.

^ I wish. Wife tipped me off on this, but I think it's been debunked as a hoax (and copycats): “[Our children] mentioned, ‘Mama, there’s clowns out there in the woods and they’re trying to get us to come out there,’” James Arnold said. “Some had chains, some had knives, and some were holding out money, saying, ‘Come here, we’ve got candy for you,’ but they wouldn’t go.”

Dude... As a fellow New Jerseyan, I'd bet you'd let this Mooslim POS crockpot/pessure cook bomb the ish out of the PABT, knowing the only person inside was that dude himself.

That building and that ********** deserve each other.

^ haha, yeah it sucks, but I go through once in the morning and right to the subway. At night, I usually either leave early or stay late enough for a free (thanks, work) Uber. It's not great, but I'm the first stop on the other side and I'm on one of the buses that has... a relatively high median income. I think Penn Station's worse, frankly, but I avoid the bowels of PABT - straight to the gate.

It'll be cute when significant swaths of the media will try to pin his newfound radicalization on "social isolation" or "islamophobia" (the family's lawsuit will serve as a springboard for that narrative, assuredly).

The "cuteness" will be sensed by anybody with two neurons to rub together bc they'll realize mormons, gays, impoverished Latinos, transplanted rednecks, and our ancient whipping boys of dark complexion are ALL at least as (if not significantly more) socially isolated and derided within much of American society.....yet none of those groups make national news on a regular basis for planting pipe bombs, shooting up night clubs, massacring marathon runners, or gunning down coworkers. It's always *one* group in particular who has individuals turn towards violence so (relatively) frequently.

IMHO, law enforcement should profile non-Caucasian owners of chicken restaurants. We all know this guy's story...

One of the great characters ever.

Penn Station >>>> PABT. All the poors and NJ people go through PABT. No one else gets caught dead in PABT.
