They are so crafty. So money-hungry. So devious. If they can over-charge you they will. Take THIS Jew, for example. Mohammed:
What? NOT a JEW?
One of those guys who practices the fine, fine religion of Islam?
Surely, it's a Jew simply using the name Mohammed to blaspheme the Great Prophet and Ruler of the Universe? No?
Nice to see Jessica Lappin concerned enough to...say tut-tut to him.
Lappin was a fairly ineffective councilwoman. She looked like a 20 year-old debutante, and after two terms in office (term limits!) she STILL looks like someone who could be an intern working for a girl's college dean. Dynamic, she is not.
During her two, four, whatever years as a councilwoman, she made headlines once by complaining about a crane accident in her neighborhood. As in, hey, that's not safe, let's make sure that construction workers don't let a fucking crane knock into building again. She turned an odd incident into a cause. Only nobody was too concerned about one-in-a-million construction accidents.
She tried to run for higher office but nobody was impressed. What had she accomplished? Had she prevented more scaffold accidents involving cranes getting loose and swinging into buildings under construction or completed?
Having "advocated" for better safety inspections of cranes, and being enough of a politician to network and find a good easy job after being in office, she joined an "advocacy group."
In her case, she began "advocating" for more greedhead companies to buy office space in the Wall Street area. As if that area isn't loaded with high rise office buildings and rich idiots already, as well as pricey hotels for those morbid tourists who wanna see where the World Trade Center USED TO BE.
There are a lot of people who make BIG money running "advocacy" groups. It's a good tax dodge, I guess. As in, "I donated $100,000 so some chick could take out a $10,000 ad in the newspaper and keep the rest as her salary."
But you don't get donations if you're not visible, so gee, here's Lappin getting a paragraph or two by "advocating" to this scumbag heathen infidel son of a camel that he shouldn't be mean to tourists. And he answered, "Me?"
Nice work, Jessica.
The intersection of Albany and Greenwich streets, for out-of-towners, is located wayyyy downtown. If you're bumbling your way between the new World Trade Tower and the rip-off museum about 9/11, and the little park where faux-hippies staged their brief "Occupy Wall Street" antics, you'll find it.
The area snags a lot of tourists (you can see the Statue of Liberty!) and more tourists (you can walk to the pointless South Street Seaport, or stare up at the canyons of Wall Street, where rich asshole stockbrokers and Hedge Fund weasels operate). Unfortunately for this Son of Islam, the area does have actual office workers who don't like to see tourists swindled.
If you're in the neighborhood, you'll be sure to find this guy. He will be out with his stinky food and his surly expression, with maybe a slight mark from the slap on his wrist.
