Bobby Capano Plays the Blame Game AGAIN
While most people in Bay Ridge aren’t fans of Mayor de Blasio, we aren’t going to let Bobby Capano play the blame game here either. Anti-semetic remarks have come from individuals in the Republican Party in Brooklyn. (Story here)
Last March, we saw a staffer who worked for Marty Golden have a social media exchange which was hateful.
WHERE WAS BOB CAPANO’S OUTRAGE THEN? Where was Bob Capano’s article calling out the anti-semetic remark?
When this happened last year, many leaders spoke out against it, but they weren’t from the Republican Party. The response from the Republican Party should have been immediate and condemned the nonsense rhetoric.
The newspapers had a lot of time to share the story because Golden’s response was not immediate. The staffer wrote that message on Facebook on March 24th. Other politicians denounced the hate by March 26th. As the days went on, it appeared as if Golden was waiting to see if the story was going to go away. Golden’s office announced on the March 27th that he was fired. (See here)
Why hasn’t Bob Capano look inward at the Republican Party?
Capano claims he lives in Bay Ridge…..why won’t he speak out against ALL hate? Why is the answer to point the finger rather than address the issue?
Why didn’t Bob Capano lead the party in calling out this in Bay Ridge? C’mon.
We have no idea if Capano lives in Bay Ridge, but it’s okay if he wants to ignore hate.
Our community chose strong leadership under Gounardes, Frontus and Brannan and these leaders don’t miss a beat when there is hate in this community.
