The windows were broken on the Brooklyn Asian Safety Patrol vehicles on 57th Street off 7th Avenue in Sunset Park.
So this happened today. Brooklyn Asian Safety Patrol, an organization working to protect Asians in Sunset Park and Brooklyn had their vehicle window’s broken today. Are our electeds OK with that? @Sen_Gounardes @NYCMayor @GovKathyHochul #StopAsianHate pic.twitter.com/lwlkNxraWv

This patrol works to keep Asians safe in Sunset Park, like the Shomrin does in Borough Park (More info about the safety patrol here)

It’s sad how much hate exists for someone to break windows on a safety patrol for Sunset Park.

Brad Lander Can’t Change the Property Tax Rate. Gounardes Had the Rate from the Property Tax Commission Since December 2021
Tonight, Brad Lander was on NY 1 acting like he was going to do something about property taxes. Lander said during the election last year that he was for a fair property tax system, but didn’t do anything. He didn’t organize any rallies or make a website, like he did against Amazon. It’s just talking on NY 1, again.
Lander would have publicly asked Brooklyn senators to work on this. The state is responsible for changing the property tax rate.
Senator Andrew Gounardes told us two years ago that he was waiting for the Property Tax Commission and former Mayor de Blasio to give the new rate, so he could adjust property taxes. Gounardes had the rate since December 2021.
At the start of this year, Gounardes said that Albany was going to handle property tax reform. Gounardes failed to do anything about property taxes because his friend, Brad Lander in Park Slope enjoys the low taxes.
Politicians like Lander and Gouanardes are the reason people stop voting. The government is for politicians and their friends – not for fair taxes or middle class people.

Gounardes & Brannan Want Bay Ridge to Clean Outside Their Office
Last week, Senator Andrew Gounardes asked Bay Ridge residents to clean outside his office. (See here)
I thought Gounardes had people meeting outside of his office to carry tools to the location they were cleaning. But they took photos outside of the office cleaning. (See photo).
There are some real dirty streets in Bay Ridge, why would he start with his office? Strangely, Fifth Avenue in Bay Ridge has a BID and we have been told that the BID has a regular cleaner.
This Wednesday, Councilman Brannan wants residents to clean outside of his office at 8203 – 3rd Avenue.
Maybe they will take the tools and cleanup somewhere else, but it doesn’t look that way:
A schedule of places to clean for upcoming weeks was published, but most of these places are cleaned by the Parks Department.
Why isn’t Gounardes taking a ride around the neighborhood and locating the dirty places in the neighborhood OR asking residents what needs to be cleaned?

Joe Pignatano, Former Baseball Great & Ridgite Died at 92
Joe Pignatano, former Dodgers catcher and the last living coach from the 1969 Mets team died this morning in Florida.
Pignatano lived in Bay Ridge with his family for many years before moving to Florida. He said, “When I walk through the streets of Bay Ridge, half the people don’t even know who I am. That’s OK. I like it that way.” (Source)
The NY Mets shared their condolences and a memory of Pignatano growing tomato plants at Shea Stadium.
Longtime @Mets coach Joe Pignatano passed away today. He was 92. Pignatano is remembered for his tomato garden in the @Mets bullpen at Shea Stadium. #LGM #MetsRewind pic.twitter.com/LRrNYrBsTz

Exit 1 on the Belt Pkwy Gets Rumble Strips
The NYC DOT added these raised plastic lines to Exit 1 on the Belt Parkway – Wakeman Place. I had no idea that these white lines were called rumble strips (More info about them here)
See how they work in the video below:
New rumble strips on the Wakeman Pl spur of Exit 1. Nice addition @NYC_DOT. We could use more of this all over #BayRidge. pic.twitter.com/zsrKEx7y7X

RIP Daniel Enriquez-Brooklynite Killed on the Q Train – Random Attack

Daniel Enriquez, a 48-year-old man from Park Slope was fatally shot in the chest on a Manhattan-bound Q train approaching the Canal Street station around 11:40 am. (Story here)
The was an unprovoked and random attack. (Source) The murderer shot the victim as the train was crossing the Manhattan Bridge. The shooter got off the train at Canal Street. (Source)
Daniel Enriquez was a Goldman Sachs employee who was on the way to brunch. (See here) No one seems shocked by this shooting.
A suspect has not yet been arrested.
RIP Daniel Enriquez. Prayers for Daniel’s family who are suffering. (See here) No family should have to hear their family member was killed on a NYC subway.
