Another tale from those most liberal dictator states...

New York Man Charged with Manslaughter for Killing Armed Intruder


Here's another disappointing tale from the least-free state in America.

According to News12 Long Island, Youssef Abdel-Gawad of Huntington Station, New York has been charged with manslaughter. His crime? He killed an intruder.

Well NYC is a corporate stronghold that's protected evenly by dems and gop alike (whoever in power as mayor there caters to it). DeBlasio went back on ending the stop and frisk policy 2 weeks after elections ended so he's keeping up the conservative angle there too.

Upstate, they're taking in fracking and big bank money (via lobbyists) while enabling NYC to exist as it's own city state just like the GOP would do (and have done when they're in the mayor's office).

Your "liberal dictators" don't exist.... Your pro corporate, pro rights losses, pro reaganomics with a W. Agenda for privatized gains as well as your pro warfare/meddling for exploitable resources Dems & GOP do exist. They both have war criminals, lobby money, corporate connections, offshore tax havens and don't care about your rights equally. That would make them "corporate" more than liberal or conservative. (Those are just voting groups now.)

I'm sorry but what part of liberal dictator seems to cause a misunderstanding.

lib·er·al
adjective \ˈli-b(ə-)rəl\

: believing that government should be active in supporting social and political change : relating to or supporting political liberalism.

dic·ta·tor
noun \ˈdik-ˌtā-tər, dik-ˈ\

: a person who rules a country with total authority and often in a cruel or brutal way

So what part of these definitions would not apply to the a$$es in either Albany or the City and points in between and elsewhere in that most dictators of states. This state has been nothing but problems even before this country was founded on the republican principle along with Connecticut and Rhode Island, the haters of a free country.

Yep, that's the 2 party revolving door to Corporate Amerika.

From Wall Street, to K street to Capital Hill, to K street, to Wall Street.

It's a circle jerk with the people footing the bill for their own destruction.

But if it's bad, usually either New York or Illinois will lead the way.
