NYC sends more cops to Jewish areas to counter spate of anti-Semitic attacks | ||||
2019-12-29 | ||||
[IsraelTimes] ‘Anti-Semitism is an attack on the values of our city — and we will confront it head-on,’ mayor says after series of assaults over Hanukkah.
Besides making officers more visible in Borough Park, Crown Heights and Williamsburg, police will boost visits to houses of worship and some other places, the mayor tweeted. “Anti-Semitism is an attack on the values of our city — and we will confront it head-on,” the Democrat wrote. Around the city, police have gotten at least five reports this week of attacks apparently propelled by anti-Jewish bias. The latest happened around 12:40 a.m. Friday, when a woman slapped three other women in the face and head after encountering them on a Crown Heights corner, police said. The victims, who range in age from 22 to 31, suffered minor pain, police said. Tiffany Harris, 30, was arrested on a hate-crime harassment charge. She was awaiting arraignment Friday morning. It wasn’t clear whether she had a lawyer who could comment on the charges, and no working telephone number for Harris could immediately be found. On Monday a man was arrested for physically assaulting a 65-year-old Orthodox Jewish man while allegedly shouting anti-Semitic slurs. Steven Jorge, 28, of Miami was arrested shortly after the incident and charged with assault as a hate crime, local media reported. The suspect allegedly shouted “Fuck you Jew bastard” before punching the victim, who was wearing a black yarmulke, according to statement Tuesday from Dov Hikind, a former New York state assemblyman and founder of the Americans Against Antisemitism coalition. Jorge continued to kick his victim after he fell to the ground on East 41st Street, on the Upper East Side in New York, police said. The victim was treated at the Mount Sinai Medical Center for bruising and cuts. Jorge is being held without bail, and a judge ordered a psychiatric exam for him, court records show. A message was left Friday for Jorge’s lawyer. Gov. Andrew Cuomo told a state hate crimes task force to help police investigate the attack, calling it “a horrific and cowardly act of anti-Semitism.” “It’s even more despicable that it occurred over the holidays,” the Democratic governor said in a statement Wednesday. Hanukkah began Sunday. The New York Police Department’s Hate Crime Task Force is also investigating three other episodes that may have been motivated by anti-Semitism: — A man reported that a group of teenagers converged on his 6-year-old son and another boy, 7, and hit them from behind in a Williamsburg apartment building lobby Monday night. The attackers fled. — A 25-year-old man told police he was walking on a Crown Heights street early Tuesday when a group of people started yelling anti-Semitic slurs at him and one threw a beverage at him. The suspects fled. — Later Tuesday in Crown Heights, a 56-year-old man said that a group of people approached him, and that one of them punched him, while he was walking. No arrests have been made.
Ayana Logan, 42, was charged with hate crime assault and child endangerment for jumping the mom and young child on Ave. U near W. 6th St. in Gravesend, cops said. “You f------ Jew! Your end is coming!” Logan screamed as she struck the 34-year-old victim in the face with a bag, police said. Logan tried to run, but she was arrested two blocks away on Ave. S and W. 5th St., cops said. On Friday afternoon in Brooklyn criminal court, Logan, wearing a burgundy coat and light wool hat, was released by Judge Miriam Gingold, contingent on her participation in a city mental health program called Empower Assist Care. Cops have counted 214 anti-Semitic hate crimes this year, up 14% from last year. That accounts for more than half of all 406 hate crimes police have investigated this year.

#3 Suspect In NYC Anti-Semitic Attack Released On Bail, Arrested AGAIN In Another Attack |

#2 ... who incidentally often turn out to have mental problems that lead to poor impulse control. ..scroll down to "New 2020 law prohibits California public schools from suspending students for disobeying teachers". Seems the authorities promote poor impulse control rather than suppress it in early development. Even a flat worm can be taught to avoid pain. In much more ancient times, prime males in family units tended to install self control and discipline among feral male youths. Seems Big Sister did away with those a couple of generations past. Rather than acknowledging a major fundamental failure in social reorganization, Big Sister is now set on turning feral male youth into female youth whether the subject wants to or not. |
