“…the subway system has turned into a kind of rolling psychiatric hospital dayroom that New Yorkers are supposed to use as their primary means of transportation.”

This could be said for most of the city as well.

Those in power and their delusional policies are most definitely responsible, but the lion’s share of that responsibility must also be laid at the feet of the New York City voters, who time and again remain willfully blind to the dystopian nightmare they’ve allowed their city, to be turned into, a city which not that long ago had been one of the greatest - and safest - cities in the world.

It never ceases to shock me, remembering that Turkey is still a member of NATO.

It will be a grave injustice if Daniel Penny spends even a single day in jail. Penny intervened to protect others from Neely's delusional and dangerous state of mind. He was being a good Samaritan. I can only hope those witnesses who benefited from his actions will take the stand and testify to his decent actions and altruist intentions.

Re: article: “ The Ethics of Self-Interpretation”

Blah, blah, blah. People need to just get over themselves and get on with real life.

The obsession these days with all these categories and divisions, and multitudinous identities are the insane creations of over-indulged academics with nothing better to do.

I’ve got news for you: real actual people, both men and women, don’t give the time of day to such angst-ridden gibberish.

We’ve got more important and much more valuable things to do.

"...liberal elected officials and social service industry professionals pretend briefly to be as upset as anyone else and then quickly demand more funding for supportive housing, community-based treatment, peer counseling, and mandated social worker response teams for 911 calls." In other words, the crime is just an excuse for more grift. Indeed, one wonders whether that is the real problem, and the seeming ideological craziness is only the specious moral cover.

The Scroll ......."the legalization of the sale and open use of marijuana, which is widely acknowledged to accelerate manic cycling among people with bipolar disorder and to trigger schizophrenic episodes among the seriously mentally ill." What does pot have to do with this problem ? There are package goods stores in every neighborhood. And Bogadas selling Bath Salts and Vapes but it is Legal Grass? Ridiculous. Like the Manhattan Institute you have a problem with my drug of choice (50 year user). Show your research. Legalize it. Leave us alone. Puritans.
