Why the fuck does a judge get to say what the city does. Defi the order hell Trump does.
Is that what you really want? More people acting like Donald Trump?
No want to fight against fascism
Yeah, sure, fascism bad, however, I’m not sure that, in this case, a bit of judicial assholery is tantamount to fascism. This decision can be appealed and possibly reversed by a higher court.
Can but won’t.
Trump ignores the wants of the many to benefit the few. When the many stand up to the few, it’s not the same as what Trump does, it’s the opposite.
I want everyone to stop tripping over themselves to comply with dumb “orders” like this. If that means taking a page out of Trump’s playbook and ignoring them, then yeah, fuck it.
Anyone can file suit. A judge needs to pass judgement. Hopefully the judge based it on something more legitimate than whining.
Haha, how hilarious that you think that.
In their suit, bike lane opponents, who include popular Astoria businesses like Parisi Bakery, Sotto la Luna and King Souvlaki, argued that the project would “jeopardize” the safety of cyclists and “increase the likelihood of injuries” to pedestrians — despite city data and mounds of research showing protected bike lanes do the exact opposite.
Every decision against walkability is always a decision made based on the whinging of idiots
Ha, I was also going to write “whinging” but I didn’t want to do any “cultural appropriation “. I never heard that word until I started working with some Brits but it’s an excellent one we should all adopt
The will quickly find someone responsible and put them in jail. Democrats would say there’s no way to enforce it. Republicans don’t fuck around.
The word ‘unprecedented’ will be part of daily vernacular until…
At certain point, everything is just precedented.
“DOT shall take all steps reasonably necessary to restore 31st Street between 31st Avenue and Newtown Avenue … to substantially the same traffic markings, land configuration, and parking and loading regulations that existed immediately prior to commencement of work on the Safety Project in August 2025,”
Why August 2025? Why not August 1925 or 1725?
If that thumbnail pic is accurate, i dont even see a bike lane… i see two paint lines too close together. Looks super unsafe. I wouldnt even ride in that “bike lane”. I’d prefer to just ride in city traffic like of one of those insane bike couriers
Imagine the ruling was actually: “judge orders bike lane removed… and replaced with an actual separated bike lane…”
The thumbnail picture is accurate it’s just that there’s cars illegally parked in the bike lane. The bike Lane is on the far left.
Thank god the legal system is protecting those lawbreaking drivers against those evil bicyclists!
