When you want to live an elite lifestyle having what should be accessible to all this is what happens to you. Beaches are for everyone. NOT just a chosen few. Same with lakes and rivers. No sympathy here.
My dad's truck is the blue pickup @ 1:35... my parents, who were in their 70's at the time crawled out of the trucks windows in the midst of that storm and waded in ice.cold water to a house who's family took them in until the next day. It breaks my heart to watch this. Ty for posting 💔
I was showing my 8 year old son videos about Sandy. He found this video and I was surprised to see my mother's house on the corner of Beachview drive in the video. I paused it and told him the story about an elderly couple who got stuck in their car but since we by some miracle didn't lose power, they found their way to our house because they saw the porch light on. I told him how we let them in, tried to comfort them and gave them a warm place to stay for the night. None of us slept, as it was a terrifying night. The next morning a rescue boat came and got them. As soon as I was done telling him I saw your comment!
I almost bought a house on Foster Road many years ago. But, boy, what a devastating time this was. My heart still goes out to all affected by this. And many thanks for the excellent coverage!
So ridiculous... One cop with a taser could've handled this if not 2! All these cops taken away form other parts, corners of the street for one guy! Shame on you!
Grab one of the "protesters" and tell him to negotiate with the guy. You'll hear, "Do your job!" The cop's job is to protect the rest of the people on the street, even if it means killing the guy.
Hilariously, this is the most utterly depressed Amy I've ever seen (her hangdog entrance alone gets a laugh), the most blissfully oblivious Paul, and a Wedding Singer actually embarrassed by the situation (which is a rare addition), all of which is great fun to watch and listen to...In many ways as good as, and often better, than adult professional performances in my experience.. They REALLY nail the essence of the song......... How old ARE these kids???!!!
You guys all gotta stop asking "oh why not tazers?" Because if you , a fellow officers or civiallians lives are in danger thats authorized to use LETHAL force. So when a person runs in the middle of the street scream put of control with a deadly weapon with intent to injure or kill what do u do use a tazer that can only shoot like 5 feet ? Not to mention is he lunges at someone the lazer can go off but by the time hes on the ground it may be to late for someone .. Or put the bullet in the fuckers head from a distance and one less asshole and everyone is safe .. You pick ... P.S there was alot of cops bec its times square and theres tons of them there and second they walked in line formation its a useful tactic bec the perp is focused on the 20 cops behind him with guns pointed to his head but hes no focused on the 2-3 officers moving in from behind and take him down .. Pshh im not even a cop and i know this shit .
