Brannan Put a Brush to Graffiti on Shore Road
Shore Road received a touch up today by Councilman Brannan. Hooray!
He wrote on social media that this graffiti bothered him. Why doesn’t all of the graffiti in the district bother him?
A Ridgite told me he doesn’t notice the graffiti. If you don’t notice it, you are sleeping. It’s all over and if you read it, some of it is hateful towards Asians.
Why hasn’t the graffiti been removed from Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights?
A Bay Ridge resident wrote this on Twitter:
This graffiti is in Dyker Heights. It was reported, but it was not removed. Children walk over it every day to get to school.
It’s an election year, so it might disappear soon.

Noah Weston and Chris McCreight Battle for Democratic District Leader – District 46
Breaking News: Noah Weston and Chris McCreight will battle for Distict Leader of District 46.
Oh no Chris McCeight will be running for District Leader in our part of Bay Ridge. #Silent Chris would be the worst candidate for this position. He never speaks out against corruption.
If you are represented by Mathylde Frontus, you are in District 46.
The good part: Noah Weston lives in Bay Ridge. He supports transit riders, service workers and caregivers. Also Weston loves dogs and probably would have spoken up about this. (See here)
Chris McCreight supported Brannan and Gounardes (bail reform champion).
The bad: The word socialist is not on Noah Weston’ website, but it says it here. I asked Weston if he was a socialist and he didn’t reply. Noah Weston is further left than Councilman Justin Brannan.
Also, his social media accounts were all created recently. How strange! Weston worked on Khader El Yateem’s campaign, so it’s strange that he wouldn’t have a Twitter account until February 2022.
I have never seen Weston speak out against those holding office – maybe he has, but it’s not evident.
Noah was collecting signatures outside of Foodtown in Bay Ridge.
The District Leader position is an unpaid position. The District Leader is supposed to choose more candidate to run for empty offices.
Final thoughts: Noah can pet my dog. I wouldn’t vote for Noah because I don’t want the police to be defunded or any more bail reform that let’s people out of jail before they served their time. Even if Noah paid my property taxes, I wouldn’t vote for him.

Where Are You Bay Ridge Community Council?

Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis was with the Staten Island Port Richmond Civic Association calling for the end to the bail law. Kathy Hochul refuses to do anything because she lives upstate and the changes to bail haven’t changed her community.
I stand with the Port Richmond Civic Association and surrounding communities who want public safety and are calling on @GovKathyHochul and the state legislature to fix their disastrous bail law. https://t.co/a586eEtWcO
— Office of Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (@RepMalliotakis) March 6, 2022

That made me question where is Bay Ridge’s civic association? The Bay Ridge Community Council website is gone – like intentionally removed – their domain is still active. (See here) Their FB page just has condolences, no meeting info.
Both Andrew Gounardes and Mathylde Frontus voted in favor of bail reform and both have refused to update the law.
While the law needed to be updated, so young people like, Kalief Browder didn’t get caught in the system, bail reform went too far.
There is a way to update the bail laws without letting repeat offenders abuse the system and people in NYC. Don’t let politicians or parties divide this community in that this is an either or situation. It’s possible to make a fair system.
Residents have asked The NCOs in Bay Ridge, “What can we do to help you?” The officers said they keep arresting the same people – several times a month due to bail reform.
The reality is most people in Bay Ridge do not know our leaders voted for this. Gounardes and Frontus are not telling Albany legislatures how unsafe NYC has become after this legislation.
.
Are you with them Bay Ridge Civic Association or do you just not exist any more?

Early Morning Crash in Prospect Park And the Game of Politics With Iwen Chen
A BMW crashed into a war monument in Prospect Park West.
Two people were in the car. The woman was taken to the hospital and the man declined medical attention and left. He didn’t go to the hospital with his friend. (Story here)
Update: This afternoon I saw this tweet from Senate candidate Iwen Chen:
This Summer a child died on 12th Avenue, just blocks from Peter Abbate. Iwen didn’t say anything at the time.
Assemblyman Peter Abbate, who Iwen works for didn’t do anything! People in the neighborhood said that they reported this street. Abbate said he put a light there awhile back, but that must not be enough. THEN HE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING FOR THAT STREET. This is all Iwen knows – politicians ignoring problems like dangerous streets, so it may happen again.
Where is this “holistic approach” that Iwen is wrote about? It must mean politicians tweet messages of sympathy and then show a photo of themselves. Do not vote for this politician.

RIP Mazen Sinno, Co-Owner of United True Value Hardware Store in Bay Ridge
I was so sad to hear that Mazen Sinno had died. He was only 44 years old. He died on January 4th. (See obituary)
Everyone in Bay Ridge knew and loved Mazen! He and his brother own United True Value Hardware Store in Bay Ridge – the best hardware store in the area. They have everything and Mazen was so helpful
If you shopped at their store, you would understand why people love Mom and Pop businesses.
A few months ago, Mazen had back surgery a few months ago.
Prayers for his family, especially his wife and two daughters. His brother will still be running the store.

Britney Ramos DeBarros Has the Support of the Arab American Association, Working Families Party and Citizens Action
Britney Ramos DeBarros is the Democrat who will be facing Max Rose in a primary to be the Congress representative of CB -11 (currently held by Nicole Malliotakis)
I was surprised to see she has the support of the Arab American society. Max Rose had their support in his first election. They were quiet when he went for re-election.
Max Rose used to have their support. Rose is entering the race as a different candidate this time. Yes, he served in the military, but so did De Barros.
Rose served one term in Congress and didn’t do much of anything for Bay Ridge. I think he renamed a post office in Dyker Heights and put up some ugly fencing on Shore Road near the Belt Parkway.
Britney Ramos DeBarros is a socialist. Hear some of Britney’s platform here:
Passing #MedicareforAll—with a fully funded VA & public healthcare system—means not waiting decades for Congress to pass special legislation for those of us exposed to burn pits. It’ll just be covered.

Brittany was endorsed by the Working Families Party. Max Rose had their support in the first election. (See here)
Britney was also endorsed by the Citizen Action Network – Max Rose had their support in 2018. (See here)

Ebike Rider Arrested for Injuring Woman in Brooklyn
A 43-year-old Bensonhurst woman was hit by an ebike rider on 19th Avenue and 76th Street in Bensonhurst around 6:00 pm on Friday. Another woman was injured as well, but not so seriously. (Story here)
NYC Council including Justin Brannan voted for ebikes to be legal in 2020 (See here) – sadly, there are no requirements for someone to drive an ebike in NYC and most drive away when there is an accident.
