Man Arrested for St. Athanasius Vandalism – Charged with Federal Count of Criminal Mischief
Tonight, they news announced that the police arrested a 29-year-old man for the vandalism/hate at St. Athanasius last week. See story here
He was charged with one federal count of criminal mischief as a hate crime. It’s interesting that they hit him with a federal charge. Is this to prevent him from getting around NYS bail reform?

Shorefront News Blasts Justin Brannan
Justin Brannan made Shorefront News yesterday with the above photo and caption. See here.
I’m surprised to see Shorefront News blast Brannan – no other publication in Brooklyn has mentioned the lawsuit.
Shorefront News usually runs very complimentary stories about Brannan. (See here)

Cellary Wine Tasting in Bay Ridge 5/21
Cellary Wine Store on 3rd Avenue and 89th Street in Bay Ridge is having a wine tasting tonight, Friday, May 21st from 5 – 7 pm. They have a backyard too!
Last month, we were making a basket for a newly engaged couple.
I ran into Cellary to grab a special bottle of wine. I told the owner, Catherine what I was looking for and she pulled out this bottle. Perfect!
The store is fresh, modern and a gem in Bay Ridge!

Justin Brannan Voted in Favor of the Electric Scooters Last Year
Many residents are calling for NYC to do something about the electric scooters riding on sidewalks. Journalist, Jessica Parks wrote an article about the scooters on Shore Road, Parks failed to mention that Councilman Brannan voted in favor of that bill last June.
Now that Spring is here, more people are out on new scooters. Some scooters drivers are riding on sidewalks where people are walking.
There is an explosion of these types of vehicles and they aren’t licensed. At the May Community Board 10 people complained about them. When something happens, the drivers of these vehicles just ride away because there is no way to identify them.
By now, Brannan should have done something, but he isn’t willing to revise the bill.
On Shore Road, the pedestrian area and bike area needs to be labeled so people don’t get hurt. When an accident happens, Brannan and other pols will offer prayers, but safety measures should have been put into effect before these e-bikes were allowed.

Gounardes Graphic Fooled Street Safety and Bike Advocates
Like the senator before, Gounardes outreach extends what he does – either by silly press releases about bills that never get to the floor or pass.
Gounardes’ team also likes to build graphics like the one above.
If you read the graphic, it shows that Gounardes’ only contribution was that he made a bill that was signed into law that educates drivers about cyclists. That’s great for new drivers, but it doesn’t do two things: educate all drivers AND educate cyclists about the rules of the road! (And yes, they need to know the rules of the road too.)
The senator’s failure to understand something simple like who is being left out (a loophole) is a regular thing for Gounardes!
But for today, he’s done what he set out to do, fool bike enthusiast into thinking he has done all the bills listed under his name. He’s never even mentioned these other bills on Facebook or Twitter!
