I don't know why this barbeshop acts like this was some sort of robbery. Don't leave your shit on public property and then act like you got robbed. Though I'd love the bench in comparison to how the restaurants have somehow been allowed to still take over all the sidewalks around here.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-31632954126362325282022-10-23T20:57:45.402-04:002022-10-23T20:57:45.402-04:00@Giovanni

Rich people get so little credit for all the good things they do for the rest of us, like gentrification, which will eventually lead to the elimination of all crime and human suffering, but only after those things get much, much worse for just a little while longer. When will people understand that God invented poor people (and SantaCon) so that rich people would feel even richer and superior to everyone else? In other words, most of us wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for the obscene hoarding of excessive wealth by the lucky few. Jesus died poor so that the rich could have more.

Upper class people have to put up with a lot of inconveniences these days, including climate change, a shortage of rooftop party spaces, pretending to support military aid to Ukraine and Democrats trying to save Medicare and Social Security, and paying more taxes than all you poor people out there in your rent controlled walkups, so what is one permanenetly borrowed used bench in the big scheme of things? Next you'll want them to sell their Taylor Swift albums to help clean up Tompkins Square Park, where they stack their Starbucks cups on top of overflowing garbage cans. Where does it end?

This was a bench in front of a business, clearly not the same idea. Business was open, in fact, so they could have easily asked first. No, they knew exactly what they were doing (and if asked who have likely used that excuse: "Oh, we thought it was a discard."). That's why they just took it.

That is, there’s a presumption of innocence or at least the lack of subtextual vitriol that usually surrounds reports of the same type of property theft when perpetrated by members of other communities.
