Yep. Ridiculous.

If you think you will the you will.

Saw a car run a red light and almost hit a crossing guard this morning in the heights. Tons of people and children around and this asshole just plowed on through.

God bless Jersey City 🤣

So what happened was OP posted the post and someone originally commented the artist’s website link. OP thought it was a scam or something because the artist was selling stickers, and OP started trashing the artist. People here are either defending the art and artist, trashing the art and artist, enjoying the discussion on the ethicality of the artwork, and/or reporting the artwork to Disney for copyright infringement. Gotta love Jersey City ♥️

If they don't do their job, they should be fired.

If they don't do their job and aren't fired, the police chief should be fired.

It is allowed, but it shouldn’t be. NYC has this right.

Nice detective work!

The PoLicE have other EmErGeNcIeS to attend to.

Reminds me of the family I met where kids had a near drowning at the community pool. Toddler who walked there . Well, it happened a second time and second time wasn’t a near drowning. Failure to watch your kid around potentially dangerous objects/locations is a failure of parenting.

Now flo rida just won 80 million dollars in an unrelated lawsuit, some sports drink or company he promoted that blew up and tried to not pay him. The guy is rich as hell. Why the hell is his kid In this situation. Shitty situation all around. All the money in the world can’t help them if he landed on his head.

That would line up with the high tide times this week.

Nice to see the bag ban working as intended.

NYC has cameras. NJ needs to change current laws.

Gotta love how blatantly awful it is to tout zero traffic deaths (on City roads), but not mention anything about the County roads that run through JC.

I don't pay for heat. My carbon footprint is otherwise lower than most so I think I'm allowed this one thing that improves my quality of life.

Do you pay anything for your heat? And never mind the cost, think of the carbon being spewed by that waste.

Disagree. Turn on red after complete stop is allowed.

Enforcing stop for red lights is important.

Loaded up the article to let you know what paragraph, but that quote is gone. Solid editing there without updating the timestamp

I like having windows open for fresh air in the winter.

Pretty much why it's always been smoke being blown with how realtors for ages have been swearing up and down how "Greenville is going to be the next Williamsburg" and all that other nonsense when so many parts of the city are just a complete unnecessary science project to get to very simple point A-B places with how junk the public transit can be.

I hate to be so cynical but I just don't see much ever really changing despite how the state of public transit doesn't need to be so shit.

That's an issue, and one I can't believe a landlord continues in this era of high energy costs. I assume it's an old steam heat building, but even with that there's solutions to that problem like thermostatic rad valves. Have you ever simply turned off some of the radiators? When we had a 6th fl apt in the city I think we had only one rad on in the whole place.

It's not that I disagree with you...it's that a lot of people don't feel comfortable working with tools in a place they don't own, and especially not installing something safety related. Whether it's good or not to be that way, many people (probably including this mom) have never owned their own places so they're not accustomed to doing their own manual work that way. I know I'd hire someone to install safety bars, would absolutely not be comfortable doing that and I own my place. Certainly wouldn't be messing with drilling bars into walls in a rental.

As for the windows....I dunno what kind of hardcore fortresses you've been living in but every place I've ever lived has windows that, um, can be opened. Easily. By just like, putting a little upwards pressure on them. A two-year-old couldn't open it but a six-year-old should be able to.

Like I said, that would have to be some strong determined 6 year old for most windows I've met.

As for victim blaming, there's a bad guy here, but people need to be less helpless and passive. It reminds me a bit of the people who cross the road with their nose buried in their phone because it's a crosswalk and they have right of way. Yes, they're right, but it's not a great survival strategy in the real world.

If your kid's life was at stake...wouldnt you watch a 1 minute youtube video and get it done? Its incredibly simple to do. Its not like shes building an addition onto a house. It can be done with a $5 screwdriver from home deopt

Or....dont open the window till its safe?
