It's been about a month since the last big news of the NYPD (New York Police Department), out of anger at the conveniently miscegenating mayor, decided to engage in what the Ney York Post called a "virtual work stoppage" (Jan 29, 2015).
What has happened in the mean time? A casual Google search hasn't turned up much. It seems that the mayor is getting heat over a brief subway shutdown, and a lot of people think Patrick Lynch is a blowhard, which is about like saying that water is wet.
So what has happened since then? I'm not expecting a miracle, like expecting Fox News to run a story saying, "Oh Ebola sent by the Muslim in the White House by way of Mexican children at the border is not going to slaughter us after all." Still, the warnings of dire consequences were so, well, dire, that the relative quietude is somewhat notable.
So what is going on? Is it like a science fiction story I once read? New York City has become a smoking crater, and all operations have moved to Newark, and we're all being hypnotized by the dot on cathode ray tubes not to notice? (And also to believe that we have flat screens?)
Have the NYPD settled their differences with the mayor and gone back to performing the essential work of arresting or killing people for trivial offenses in order to make revenue, which is all that stands between us and Soviet-style Communism?
Or are New Yorkers doing fine despite the absolute horrors of having to pass asthmatics selling onesies? Are they managing, as they usually seem to do?
