Dem who demanded 'justice' after subway chokehold death skewered for post about NYC assaults
A New York City Council member — who last year demanded "justice" for an "erratic" homeless man who died while being subdued by subway passengers he was threatening — is being cast as a hypocrite for questioning why ordinary citizens have seemingly ignored a recent string of violent attacks against women in the Big Apple.
"Where are the men calling this out?" Amanda Farías, a Democratic member representing the 18th District, asked in a post on social media app X.
Farías was responding to a post in which the New York City Women's Caucus stated it was "deeply disturbed [and] concerned about widespread reports of attacks against women in NYC that have been confirmed by the NYPD."
